Laboratory fume hood

Eagle County, Colorado is seeking a procurement and installation contract for a specialized laboratory fume hood replacement project. The opportunity involves demolishing an existing 6' laminar flow hood and installing a new 6' exhaust fume hood with specific technical requirements. The new fume hood must include a work surface, flow monitor, two electrical outlets, and meet ANSI specifications of 80-120 feet per minute airflow. Additional required components include a 6' base storage cabinet and an exhaust blower. The project has a posted date of September 11, 2025, with proposal submissions due by September 27, 2025. Current infrastructure may support water and vacuum connections, depending on cost considerations. The procurement appears to prefer that the installer directly source the hood, indicating a desire for a comprehensive solution that includes both equipment procurement and installation.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly stated in the documentation, the contract opportunity seems focused on a targeted facility upgrade for a scientific workspace. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the provided materials. The project's infrastructure suggests compatibility with existing laboratory systems, potentially allowing for seamless integration of the new fume hood. Although precise budget ranges are not disclosed, the specificity of technical requirements indicates a professional-grade laboratory equipment procurement. The scope of work implies a specialized contract that will require vendors with specific expertise in laboratory equipment installation, ventilation systems, and compliance with ANSI technical standards. Potential bidders should demonstrate technical capabilities in laboratory infrastructure upgrades and have experience with precise scientific equipment installation.
