Replace Chiller York 2075

Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document is a Pre-Proposal Inquiry Submission Form related to opportunity N4008526R0109 - Replace Chiller York 2075. It addresses a follow-on question regarding a previous response about local KMC control dealers.

• Question: Clarification is sought on whether to price a solution using a local on-base control contractor (e.g., JCI or ALC) to control the chiller and integrate it with A-81 at Norfolk Naval Station, given that the local KMC dealer is no longer in existence and no local KMC control repair is available.
• Response: The government's intent is to "Replace chiller in-kind with standalone control."

This clarification indicates that the replacement chiller should be a like-for-like replacement and will operate with standalone controls, rather than requiring integration with existing DDC systems or the use of specific local contractors for control integration.
