Renovation of an educational facility in Bowling Green, Florida. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

Sealed bids will be received for furnishing all labor and material and performing all work necessary for the Removal and Replacement of Air Cooled Scroll Condensing Unit and associated piping at Bowling Green Elementary School bldg. 1, 4530 S. Church St, Bowling Green, FL. Bidder must be a licensed Florida Contractor ("Contractor") unless otherwise set forth in these bid documents. The Board reserves the right to reject any and all bids received and to waive any and all irregularities in regard thereto. Unsealed bids, e.g., fax transmissions, will not be accepted. No bids may be withdrawn after the scheduled closing time for receipt of bids for a period of thirty (30) days. Bid Proposals from Contractors not in attendance of the mandatory pre-bid conference will be considered unresponsive. Bid tabulations with recommended awards shall be posted for review by interested parties at the Hardee County School Board office and web site. The Hardee County School District (District) shall have the option of using the District's purchasing card (from Bank of America) to make purchases, partial payments and/or draws under the contract or purchase order. The District's purchasing card is similar to a credit card in that there will be a small fee which the contractor will be required to pay and the contractor will receive payment directly from the card issuer rather than the District. Any and all fees related to this type of payment are the responsibility of the contractor. In no case will the District allow increases in prices to offset credit card fees paid by the contractor or any other charges incurred by the contractor, unless specifically stated in the terms of the contract or purchase order. Payment through the District purchasing card is a method of payment, not a method of contract award. Procedural requirements for awards of contracts and orders must still be followed.
