Renovation of a detention facility in Daytona Beach, Florida. Working plans call for the renovation of a detention facility.

**As of September 09, 2025, no bids received. No definite date for the rebid.** This project involves the demolition and replacement of the existing Branch Air Handler and Fire Suppression System, which has reached the end of its functional life. The current system, installed over a decade ago, is no longer reliable, poses safety concerns, and is unable to perform as intended due to design flaws, poor material choices, and lack of ongoing maintenance provisions. Question Deadline 08/07/2025 at 11:59 PM ET Questions and exceptions concerning any Section of this ITB shall be directed through the question and answer functionality electronically. Term: Total contract time: 395 Days A Bid bond shall accompany each Bid in an amount not less than five percent (5%) of the Bid amount and shall be valid for a period not less than one hundred twenty (120) days. If a Bid bond is used, the Bidder shall complete and submit the Bid bond form provided in this solicitation. After the County and the successful bidder have executed a written Contract and the successful bidder has recorded an acceptable Payment and Performance Bond or if one hundred twenty (120) days have passed after the date of the formal opening of the Bids and no Contract has been awarded, the Bid security of any Bidder will be returned upon written demand. Failure of the bidder to execute a Contract and record the required bonds as provided herein within ten (10) days after a written notice of award has been given shall be just cause for the annulment of the award and the forfeiture of the Bid security to the County, which forfeiture shall be considered not as a penalty, but in liquidation of damages sustained. Award may then be made to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder or all Bids may be rejected. Bids which contain modifications, incomplete, unbalanced, conditional, obscure, or which contain additions not requested, or irregularities of any kind, or which do not comply in every respect with the instructions to bidders and the Contract documents may be rejected at the option of the County. The County does not bind itself to accept the minimum Bid stated herein, but reserves the right to accept any Bid, the County deems to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, and which in the judgment of the County will best serve the needs and interests of the County. The existing air handling and fire suppression systems are over 10 years old. The systems were installed without appropriate service access panels, preventing adequate maintenance and cleaning. The air handler dampers have rusted in fixed positions, impairing airflow and disabling the smoke purge function. Internal coil surfaces cannot be accessed or cleaned due to poor design, resulting in significant buildup of dust and debris and reduced efficiency. Materials used in the initial installation have proven to be unsuitable, contributing to system deterioration. No extended warranty or service agreement has been in place since the initial one-year warranty expired.
