The State University of New York at Geneseo is soliciting Statements of Qualifications from engineering and design firms for Project L06154, which involves an HVAC Assessment, Balancing Plan, and Emergency Generator Study for the Letchworth, Mary Jemison, and Red Jacket Dining Halls. The selected consultant will evaluate existing HVAC conditions against recent design documents to resolve air balancing issues and conduct a feasibility study for installing emergency backup generators capable of supporting full building loads, including preliminary cost estimates and equipment locations.

Evaluation is based on design team qualifications, personnel experience, and a history of similar projects over the last five years. The contract requires strict adherence to New York State laws, including prevailing wage rates, non-discrimination policies, and the New York State Information Security Breach and Notification Act. Participation goals are set at 30% for MWBE (16% MBE and 14% WBE) and 6% for SDVOB. Insurance requirements include Commercial General Liability and Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) maintained for three years post-completion, with policies naming the State of New York and the State University Construction Fund as additional insureds.
