Downtown Government Complex Chilled Water Efficiency Improvement Design Services

The contract involves providing design services to enhance the chilled water system efficiency at the Downtown Government Complex in North Carolina. The primary goal is to improve the chilled water temperature differential (Delta T) by replacing existing chilled water coils in air handling units across multiple buildings. The project entails removing the current coils, installing new, more efficient coils, and addressing related piping, valves, and controls to ensure optimal operation. The design work requires a thorough assessment of existing conditions, development of effective replacement strategies, and coordination with the existing chilled water loop infrastructure, including heat exchangers, to facilitate seamless integration and improved system performance. The solicitation, issued by the North Carolina State Construction Office, is open for responses until October 24, 2024, with a contract value estimated between $500,000 and $1,500,000. The project aims to deliver comprehensive design solutions that enhance system efficiency and reliability, ultimately contributing to energy savings and operational improvements across the complex. The primary point of contact for this project is Jeff Schmadeke from the Department of Administration, accessible via email for further inquiries.
