Summary: The aging JTDC chillers were identified during Phase A of the Investment Grade Audit in 2012. At the time both chillers were operating, however since then, one of the existing 45 year old Carrier chillers has failed and is not able to be brought back into service and the other chiller is starting to fail. Temporary cooling equipment will be necessary for the upcoming cooling season. This amendment will fund the demolition and removal of the old chillers, equipment, asbestos abatement, and installation of the new chillers.
Request for Proposal (RFP) procedures were followed in accordance with the Cook County Procurement Code. NORESCO, LLC was selected based on established evaluation criteria.
