Bldg.66 Boiler Replacement

The Texas Military Department is soliciting competitive bids for the replacement of a 1997 Teledyne Laars Mighty Max boiler located in Building 66 at Camp Mabry, 2200 West 35th Street, Austin, TX. The scope requires full labor, materials, and equipment to remove the existing boiler and vent pipe, replace the expansion tank, pressure relief valves, and temperature gauges, and install a new high-efficiency, sealed combustion, pilotless ignition boiler with digital controls and low emissions, ensuring compatibility with the existing HVAC system through new BTU calculations. The contractor must install new shut-off water valves, connect existing utility lines, install a new vent pipe with prior approval, add a “T” inlet and outlet for temperature probes, and integrate a CO monitor. Performance includes testing the boiler’s integration with the Delta Controls Building Automation System, obtaining a state operating permit, submitting warranty and documentation, and maintaining daily site cleanup in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. The solicitation, TMD26-FMO-0043115, is an Invitation for Bid with a response deadline of June 5, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. CST, and is governed by a Firm Fixed Price structure with no minimums, based on a single job line item. The award will be based on best value, considering total cost of ownership, installation, life cycle costs, warranty, technical compliance, delivery time from receipt of purchase order, vendor performance history, financial capacity, and compliance with laws, with the department reserving the right to select other than the lowest bidder. All proposals must be submitted electronically to Procurement@military.texas.gov with the subject line referencing the solicitation number and addressed to Reginald A. Hall, the Contract Administrator, and organized into three volumes containing signed forms, vendor information, and pricing in the mandatory format. Contractors must provide a Texas Identification Number, complete a Direct Deposit Authorization Form, and certify under Texas Family Code that they are not ineligible for payment due to child support obligations, with disclosure of Social Security numbers required. Compliance with the Texas Government Code mandates Buy Texas Affirmation, adherence to the Drug-Free Workplace Act, prohibition of contracts with foreign terrorist organizations, and acceptance of public records under FOIA and TPIA. The contractor must maintain insurance including $1 million employer’s liability and statutory workers’ compensation, name TMD as an additional insured, and provide certificates within five days
