Description

This contract calls for the complete removal and replacement of the existing make‑up‑air (MAU) unit and associated water‑chiller at the Dorrill Dining Hall on the Longwood University campus. The scope includes demolition of the old equipment, installation of an owner‑furnished 160‑ton water‑cooled rotary chiller and a new indoor performance climate changer (air‑handling unit), replacement of associated fans, pumps, and a duct‑mounted reheating coil, plus all required mechanical, electrical, and commissioning services (excluding start‑up, rigging, paint, seismic certification, and control‑valve supply). The project is a lump‑sum, single‑price solicitation with a 5 % bid bond requirement, SWaM participation goals, and standard Virginia construction safety and insurance requirements. Bids were due 5 Apr 2021, the award was made to Southern Air, Inc., and the work is expected to be substantially completed by mid‑June 2021. • Mechanical replacement of MAU and 160‑ton water‑cooled chiller (owner‑furnished equipment). • Removal of existing fans, pumps, ductwork, and installation of new duct‑mounted reheat coil. • Full compliance with Virginia SWaM goals, safety protocols, and required bonding/insurance.

Contract value

$210,000

The bid tab shows four responsive bidders with base amounts ranging from $204,500 to $239,000. Southern Air, Inc. was the awardee; assuming a competitive award near the middle of the range, a reasonable estimate is roughly $210,000. This estimate accounts for the cost of a 160‑ton water‑cooled chiller, a 66‑size air‑handling unit, demolition, installation labor, associated controls, and required bonding/insurance. The contract’s limited scope (single‑building HVAC replacement) and the modest bid amounts support a mid‑$200 k valuation.
