HVAC System Repairs, Replacements, and Technical Support

Pinellas County operates a large and diverse facilities portfolio that includes administrative buildings, courthouses, detention facilities, public service centers, operational support buildings, and other critical infrastructure. These facilities rely on HVAC systems and equipment that include chillers, boilers, air-handling units, rooftop units, split systems, pumps, cooling towers, ventilation equipment, controls, building automation systems, and related mechanical components. Reliable HVAC systems are essential to safe and efficient facility operations. Equipment failures can disrupt public services, affect employee workspaces and critical equipment environments, create indoor air-quality concerns, and require urgent or emergency repairs. Aging equipment and changing facility demands also create recurring needs for system diagnostics, corrective repairs, equipment replacement, controls support, and technical assistance. The type and urgency of HVAC work vary by facility, equipment, operational risk, available funding, and project complexity. Required services may range from routine troubleshooting and corrective repairs to emergency response, major equipment replacement, installation, operational testing, controls support, technical recommendations, and cost estimating. No single service model or specialty can efficiently address every HVAC requirement across the County's portfolio. CPM therefore seeks to establish a multi-vendor pool that includes both full-service contractors and specialized vendors. This structure will allow the County to match each assignment with an awarded vendor possessing the appropriate qualifications, technical capabilities, availability, and response capacity while reducing reliance on a single contractor.
