New construction or replacement of a chiller type technology cooling system engineered specifically for data center/electronic/IT networking environments. Projects submitted which reference comfort cooling systems which are engineered primarily for the intermittent use required to maintain a comfortable environment for people in facilities will not be considered. Projects submitted to demonstrate Precision Cooling System will only be considered if the work was performed by the specific entity proposed for the Precision Cooling System under the resultant contract, as identified in Block 10 of Attachment A. (2) Uninterruptable Power Supply System. New construction or replacement of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system that is 225 kVA size or more.
