This Request for Quotation (RFQ) from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), dated August 15, 2025, seeks proposals for HVAC replacement at Building 14A, VA, West Haven, CT. The project, estimated between $100,000 and $250,000, requires the contractor to provide all labor, materials, and equipment. Award will be based solely on price. Key requirements include mandatory SAM.gov registration, potential bonding for contracts over $35,000 (payment and performance bonds for projects exceeding $150,000), and adherence to a 140-calendar-day completion period after notice to proceed. Contractors must comply with federal acquisition regulations, including those concerning small business subcontracting limits (85% for general construction) and the Buy American Act, which specifies domestic content percentages for construction materials. Site visits are highly recommended, and all questions must be directed to the Contract Specialist, Jennifer M. Samela.

The document outlines a project for the HVAC replacement in Building 14A at the VA Connecticut Healthcare System in West Haven. The work involves replacing four wall-hung air conditioning units of 3-ton cooling capacity and 67,500 BTU gas heat, along with associated thermostats, and includes necessary modifications to wall framing, electrical wiring, and gas piping. The project also requires thorough cleaning of the HVAC system using source removal methods, adhering to strict environmental and safety protocols, including HEPA filtration for vacuum devices. The building will remain occupied, necessitating after-hours work for duct cleaning and utility outages. The contractor must adhere to stringent security, quality control, and environmental protection measures, including waste management with a 60% diversion goal from landfills. Detailed project schedules, site plans, and various safety plans (Accident Prevention, Fall Prevention, Hazardous Energy Control, Lift Plan) are mandatory, with designated personnel for project supervision and quality/safety management. All work must comply with federal, state, and local regulations, including specific guidelines from EM 385-1-1.
