RFP 4J Multi-Site Cooling Retrofits

Eugene School District 4J is seeking electronic proposals from Oregon-licensed engineering consulting firms to perform multi-site cooling retrofits across several elementary and middle schools. The Request for Proposal (RFP) focuses on design and construction services for split-system heat pump installations, with the primary objective of providing full or partial cooling capabilities in classrooms and selected additional spaces within district facilities. Qualified firms must demonstrate expertise in mechanical engineering, HVAC system design, and educational facility retrofitting. The solicitation requires comprehensive engineering consulting and sub-consulting services to support the district's cooling infrastructure improvement project. Proposals must be submitted electronically by August 28, 2025, with the original posting date being August 12, 2025. Prospective bidders are expected to possess current Oregon licensing, demonstrable experience in educational facility mechanical systems, and the technical capability to design and implement heat pump retrofit solutions across multiple school sites.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly mentioned in the provided documentation, the procurement appears open to qualified engineering consulting firms licensed in Oregon. The project scope suggests potential opportunities for local and regional engineering firms with demonstrated expertise in educational facility mechanical systems. No incumbent vendors or existing contractors are identified in the current documentation. The solicitation does not specify a precise budget range, though the multi-site nature of the cooling retrofit project implies a significant capital investment across several school locations. Interested firms should carefully review the complete RFP documentation to understand the full technical requirements, submission guidelines, and potential scope of work for the district-wide cooling system improvements.
