Description
The Rowan University Bozorth and Hawthorn Hall Decoupling Project requires a qualified contractor to disconnect existing steam‑based heating systems, remove a 400 A breaker, install new boiler equipment, and perform associated electrical‑panel relocation, demolition, and finishing work. The contract is a single‑prime, performance‑based construction award with technical and price evaluation criteria. Work must be completed while the buildings remain occupied, and the contractor is responsible for site safety, temporary fencing, and a builders‑risk insurance policy. The project schedule is tight, with a notice‑to‑proceed expected early June and substantial completion required by mid‑October.
• Scope includes mechanical demolition, new boiler installation, electrical panel removal and installation of a new “PPB” panel, and coordination of related trades (masonry, HVAC, electrical).
• Project budget is undisclosed but typical for similar campus‑level decoupling projects ranges in the low‑ to mid‑millions.
• Contractor must provide a bid security (≤ 10 % of bid or $20 k), comply with NJ prevailing‑wage and public‑works registration requirements, and carry required insurance (CGL, workers comp, etc.).
• Timeline: NTP ≈ June 8 2026 → Substantial Completion ≈ Oct 12 2026 (≈ 18 weeks).
