RE: 177 Lake St. HVAC/Domestic Hot Water System Upgrades
Nashua Fire and Rescue went out to bid on April 30, 2019 under IFB0292-052919 for Domestic
Hot Water and HVAC System Upgrades for Nashua Fire Station 2 at 177 Lake Street. Bids were
opened on May 29, 2019.
We had previously engaged Yeaton Associates to develop the mechanical systems and scope of
work documentation for the proposed HVAC renovation. We received the following bids:
Name of Vendor Bid amount
Palmer and Sicard Inc. Accepted bid $ 209, 000.00 ($ 194,000.00 substitute John
($209,000.00) Controllers).
RTH Mechanical Contractors INC. $177,493.00 (this bid was disqualified)
(disqualified)
Berkeley Building Co, $351,422.00
Alliance Mechanical $364,760.00
Based upon review of all bids, Palmer & Sicard was determined to be the successful bidder
based upon qualifying bid. They quoted 2 prices, one based on scope of work with specified
equipment, and the second with substitutions of Johnson Controllers.
Accordingly, we are requesting approval to contract with Palmer & Sicard in the amount of
$209,000.00 for the upgrade of Domestic Hot Water and HVAC System Upgrades for the Lake
Street Fire Station.
This work will be performed in the September timeframe.
Sincerely,
George A. Walker
