Fire pump

Halifax Health Medical Center, located in Daytona Beach, Florida, is seeking qualified contractors to remove and replace the existing fire pump and controller system at its main campus through Invitation to Bid (ITB) # PROJ-26-010. The project requires a turnkey, all-inclusive scope of work that involves removing the current diesel fire pump engine, fire pump controller, jockey pump, jockey pump controller, and fuel tank, and installing a new electric fire pump system. Bidders must demonstrate experience working in healthcare environments and provide comprehensive documentation including a cover letter, proposed scope, project approach, key personnel details, previous experience, references, and project schedule. The bid is due on December 12, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST, with an optional pre-bid meeting scheduled for November 26, 2025, and an anticipated Notice of Intent to Award planned for January 16, 2026. Evaluation criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder that best meets the required specifications, with Halifax Health reserving the right to reject any or all bids.

The procurement opportunity appears to have several legal and compliance requirements for potential bidders, including mandatory attestations regarding public entity crimes, scrutinized companies, human trafficking, and foreign country of concern regulations. Bidders must complete various certifications, including a Sworn Statement Pursuant to Section 287.133(3)(a) of Florida Statutes and a Foreign Country of Concern Attestation form. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the bid documents indicate rigorous vetting processes for potential contractors. The project involves complex electrical infrastructure and fire protection systems, with specifications mandating compliance with National Electrical Code, Florida Building Code, and NFPA standards. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the fire pump replacement suggests a significant capital investment for the healthcare facility, with all materials required to be new, U.L. listed, and meeting stringent testing standards.
