Request for Bids - WWTP HVAC Repl (CIP 22-P010) Pre-purchase Bldg. T Chiller

The Dublin San Ramon Services District is seeking bids for the pre-purchase of a chiller replacement for Building T at their wastewater treatment plant. The existing absorption chiller is at the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced. The District is considering two design options: replacing the absorption chiller with an identical unit or replacing it with an air-cooled chiller. Bidders can bid on one or both options. The goal is to have a new chiller delivered and installed prior to the major need for a new chiller next summer 2026. • The chiller replacement is part of the WWTP HVAC Replacements Project (CIP 22-P010). • The project involves replacing the existing absorption chiller with a new one, either an identical unit or an air-cooled chiller. • The District is seeking bids for the furnishment of the chiller, including equipment, installation, and startup. • The bidder shall submit a monthly cost for equipment storage in case it is needed prior to installation. • The bidder shall also submit a bid for expedited lead time, if possible, to decrease the lead time. • The District will select at most one of the design options for purchase. • The project requires compliance with various standards, including AHRI 550/590, ASHRAE Std 15, and ASME BPVC-VIII-1. • The bidder shall provide product data, shop drawings, and manufacturer's performance data. • The bidder shall also provide operation and maintenance data, including start-up instructions, maintenance data, parts lists, and controls.
