The Embassy requires the immediate removal of existing compromised and corroded HVAC chiller coils and the installation of new, direct-fit replacement coils on the facility’s chiller systems.
The scope of this project involves the procurement, delivery, and installation of commercial-grade chiller coils to restore the facility's HVAC cooling capacity and efficiency.
The Embassy of the United States Lome, Department of State intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract on a sole-source basis to:
Johnson Controls Industries – YORK & SABROE Service

Statutory Authority
This procurement is being conducted in accordance with FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
This contract action is for supplies and services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of:
- Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), "Soliciting from a Single Source" for purchases not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
Justification for Single Source
Johnson Controls (JCI) is uniquely qualified and is the only known source capable of fulfilling this requirement because the rusted coils are part of an existing JCI / York Air Handling Unit (AHU) or Chiller. Replacing them with third-party, non-OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) coils introduces a high risk of improper alignment, sizing mismatches, and compromised structural integrity. The existing air handling infrastructure relies on proprietary dimensions and specific engineering design thresholds unique to Johnson Controls. Utilizing an aftermarket coil would modify the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) configuration, altering the precise static pressure drop, air velocity profiles, and thermal performance parameters engineered by JCI.
The vendor possesses proprietary rights, data software, or manufacturing drawings essential to completing the work.
