Opportunity Overview

The International Boundary and Water Commission, United States Section (IBWC) is seeking quotes for LAN HVAC Replacement at its Headquarters in El Paso, TX (4191 N. Mesa, El Paso, TX 79902). This is a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation (RFQ) FY261222006 issued as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside.

The project involves the removal of the existing air-cooled Leibert HVAC system and the installation of a new Liebert PDX Air-Cooled System (or equivalent) with a remote condensing unit in the Headquarters LAN room. The new system must integrate with the existing Carrier HVAC system via a motorized damper for airflow control. The scope includes furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, and services, including crane service, disposal of old equipment (in compliance with EPA and FAR Part 23), refrigeration piping (R-410A or alternative), electrical reconnection, and full startup and commissioning.
