Hacc gettysburg campus mechatronics lab renovation

Harrisburg Area Community College (HACC) is seeking qualified Prime Contract Bidders for a Mechatronics Lab Renovation project at their Gettysburg Campus. The procurement involves converting an existing vacant storage space into a mechanical/electrical training classroom through a Single Prime Contract. Specific renovation work includes selective demolition, installation of new drywall partitions, construction of two multi-fixture restrooms, concrete slab trenching and patching, new acoustic tile ceilings, painting, and power and compressed air distribution upgrades. The project also requires reconfiguring existing mechanical equipment and controls to accommodate the new layout and modifying the existing fire protection system to match the new ceiling height. A mandatory pre-bid meeting and site inspection is scheduled for April 21, 2015, with sealed bids due by 3:15 PM on May 7, 2015. Bidders are required to submit a 10% bid security and will need to be prepared to provide a 100% performance and payment bond if awarded the contract.

The procurement explicitly encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), demonstrating a commitment to diverse vendor engagement. The project is subject to Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry Prevailing Wage Rates, which may impact bidder qualifications and compensation structures. HACC reserves the right to waive any bid irregularities or reject all bids at their discretion, providing flexibility in the procurement process. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed in the available documentation, the comprehensive scope of work suggests a substantial renovation project requiring specialized mechanical and electrical construction expertise. The project is located in Adams County, specifically in the Gibraltar Census Designated Place, and will directly support HACC's educational infrastructure by creating a new technical training environment for mechanical and electrical programming.
