Lake Country School District Mechanical Systems

The Lake Country School District is seeking a qualified construction partner to undertake a comprehensive mechanical systems upgrade as part of a broader district-wide infrastructure improvement initiative, which is linked to the April 2024 capital referendum. The project involves replacing and upgrading key mechanical components such as VAV boxes, air handling units, and chillers, with the goal of modernizing and enhancing the district’s facilities. The district intends to partner with a single prime contractor responsible for managing all aspects of the project, including trades, permits, and local approvals, ensuring seamless coordination with the school’s operational schedule and campus activities. Contractors are required to submit detailed, all-inclusive cost proposals that account for materials, labor, services, rentals, and any other associated expenses, along with a preliminary construction timeline. These proposals will serve as the foundation for budget development and final contract negotiations, with the district providing a project narrative to clarify scope and expectations. The solicitation, identified as LCSD-10172025-1, was issued on October 17, 2025, with a response deadline of November 17, 2025. It emphasizes the importance of detailed bid submissions, including assumptions and clarifications, to facilitate accurate budgeting and scope refinement. The project’s estimated value ranges from five to fifteen million dollars, reflecting its significant scope and impact. Interested contractors can access further bid details and submission instructions through the district’s vendor portal. The district’s primary contact for this project is Jordan Steger, reachable via email or phone, who will oversee the bidding process and subsequent project coordination. Overall, this initiative aims to modernize the district’s mechanical infrastructure efficiently and effectively, ensuring minimal disruption to school operations while achieving long-term facility improvements.
