Waiver - Water Treatment HVAC System

Park City Municipal Corporation (PCMC) is soliciting a waiver to sole-source HVAC system engineering and construction work at the 3Kings Water Treatment Plant to Envision Mechanical, Inc., with a public-comment period closing September 7, 2026. The waiver request seeks to bypass competitive procurement under PCMC Procurement Rule 5-3 based on continuity and technical-risk justification.

The scope is corrective engineering and construction to remedy design deficiencies in the existing HVAC system, including integration with the facility's Building Management System. Envision Mechanical is the incumbent contractor that originally installed the system and has already performed related corrective work at the facility. PCMC asserts that sole-sourcing to Envision minimizes schedule delays, reduces technical risk associated with onboarding a new contractor unfamiliar with the system configuration, and avoids coordination costs.

The contract value is $259,353.36. Full reimbursement will be provided by Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., the design engineering firm responsible for the original HVAC deficiencies, under a Settlement Agreement between PCMC and Jacobs. Reimbursement for any mutually agreed change orders is also covered by the Settlement Agreement.

PCMC emphasizes that timely completion is critical because 3Kings is an active, essential water treatment facility serving the community. Delays in corrective work could prolong system deficiencies and increase risk of equipment or operational failures that would impair PCMC's ability to safely and effectively treat water. The Procurement Official determined the waiver is in the best interest of PCMC under Rule 5-3, which permits competitive procurement waivers when reasonable justification exists. Comments on the proposed waiver were solicited through September 7, 2026.
