GOODNOW LIBRARY AND DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS BUILDINGS HVAC DESIGN SERVICES

The Town of Sudbury is seeking qualified engineering firms to provide HVAC design services for the replacement of rooftop systems at the Goodnow Library and the Department of Public Works buildings, with work focused on sustainable, electrification-compliant solutions aligned with Massachusetts stretch code requirements. The solicitation, issued under number BD-26-1331-FACIL-FACIL-131277 and posted on July 20, 2026, requires responding firms to be licensed in Massachusetts and demonstrate proven experience in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design for public buildings. Proposals must be submitted in hard copy by August 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM to the Combined Facilities Director at 275 Old Lancaster Road, Sudbury, MA 01776, with electronic submissions strictly prohibited. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for July 28, 2025, and firms must address the scope of work that includes preparing preliminary reports and detailed cost estimates, with all deliverables due by October 15, 2026, and substantial completion required by November 15, 2026. The contract is capped at a maximum fee of $100,000, with selection based on a trade-off evaluation that prioritizes qualifications and experience over cost alone. The project will be performed at both the Goodnow Library on Concord Road and the DPW facility on Old Lancaster Road, and the Town retains full authority for inspection and acceptance, ensuring compliance with energy efficiency and equipment standards without specifying detailed technical benchmarks beyond sustainability and code alignment. No federal contract clauses, formal line items, or socioeconomic requirements are applicable, as this is a municipal procurement conducted under local authority, with no formal contract type such as FFP or IDIQ indicated, and no payment, invoicing, or COR/COTR details formally established beyond the Combined Facilities Director serving as the primary point of contact.
