The state and local contract opportunity is an Invitation to Bid (ITB 22-OS-05) issued by Medford School District 549C in Jackson County, Oregon, for a Ductwork-HVAC Replacement project at the Medford On-Line Academy. The procurement seeks a qualified contractor to perform comprehensive HVAC system upgrades in two distinct phases, including rerouting and replacing ductwork, installing exhaust fans, and replacing rooftop air handlers. Key deliverables include Phase 1 ductwork replacement and rerouting, and Phase 2 rooftop equipment replacement with comprehensive reconnection and air balancing. The project must be completed by August 22, 2022, with critical procurement dates including an optional pre-bid meeting on February 9, 2022, and bid submissions due by March 1, 2022, at 2:00 pm. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with evaluation criteria implicitly focused on contractor qualifications, pricing, and ability to meet technical specifications outlined in the project drawings and contract documents. Bidders must demonstrate capability to execute the work according to the detailed mechanical drawings (M0.1, M2.1-M2.3, M3.1-M3.3, M5.1) and comply with all technical requirements.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Contractors and subcontractors must comply with prevailing wage requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act and Oregon state law, and must file a public works bond with the Construction Contractors Board before commencing work. While no incumbent vendor is identified, the project requires integration with existing school facility infrastructure, specifically the HVAC systems at the Medford On-Line Academy. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for complete project execution, with bid pricing expected to cover comprehensive system replacement and installation. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the detailed scope of work suggests a significant capital investment in mechanical system upgrades. The contract will be governed by AIA A201-2017 General Conditions and the Medford School District's specific contract conditions, providing a standardized yet customized framework for project execution.
