The City of Tampa Wastewater Department desires to obtain Design-Build Services for the replacement of the Administration Building Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) System at the Howard F. Curren Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant (HFC AWTP) located at 2545 Guy N. Verger Boulevard. Services will be provided under a contract with negotiated fixed fees for The assessment of HVAC replacement needs, selection and evaluation of design alternatives, final design, permitting, project management, overhead, profit, development of a guaranteed maximum price with appropriate surety bonds for the construction of HVAC system replacement and associated components. Services will also include, but not be limited to, engineering investigations, site planning, cost estimating, advertising and administration of subcontracts, start-up, preparation of O&M manuals, training, and all related work required for a complete project. Background: The HFC AWTP Administration Building was originally constructed in 1992. It originally housed Treatment Plant Management offices in the eastern part of the buildings second floor and three laboratories in the western and central parts of the buildings second floor: the Main (Analytical) Lab, Industrial Waste Lab, and Bay Studies Lab. The first floor contains storage rooms, utility/mechanical rooms, and covered parking areas for vehicles. In 2014, the building underwent an interior remodeling to convert the Bay Studies Lab area and areas of the Industrial Waste Lab into office space. The remodel project only included minor changes to the buildings HVAC system and the majority of the original system remains in place. The buildings HVAC system is served by two 206- ton chillers that alternate as lead (active) and backup chillers. The existing chillers were installed in 2009. The building has one 3,000,000 BTUH (max. input) natural gas burning, heating water boiler which was installed in early 2023. Although the Administration Building has undergone rehabilitations and improvements of its HVAC system since the original construction, several of the buildings HVAC system components have reached the end of their useful life. In addition, the HVAC system has not been redesigned to support the areas that were converted from laboratory space to office space. A new HVAC system is needed to restore system reliability, improve efficiency, and meet the requirements of the current use of the building. The scope of the design-build contract will include, but not be limited to: 1. Assessment of equipment replacement needs. 2. Development and analysis of alternatives for heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, construction sequencing, methods to minimize disruption during construction, and associated cost estimates. 3. Complete design of selected alternative. 4. Construction of selected alternative.
