Replace Chillers 1, 2 & 3

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) is conducting market research for a project to replace chillers 1, 2, and 3 at the Federal Detention Center in Miami, Florida. The project involves replacing the existing chillers and all ancillary HVAC components, including circulating water pumps, piping, valves, controls, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing services. The contractor will be required to provide all necessary equipment, labor, and materials to complete the project. The estimated magnitude of the project is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. • The project requires a reputable mechanical service provider with experience in conducting structural, architectural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and other disciplines to conduct full turnkey installation of a chiller system. • The contractor must provide a solution to selectively demolish and replace the existing chiller units, piping, condenser, and chilled water pumps, along with their associated system components. • The contractor will be responsible for disposing of the existing chillers, refrigerant, and oil, and providing disposal documentation through a licensed recycling company. • The contractor must provide three new self-contained modular chiller banks with equivalent tonnage as the existing units, magnetic bearing type, energy-efficient, and with ease of access to conduct preventive maintenance.
