Description:
The Shelby County Board of Education is seeking a qualified vendor to remove existing walk‑in freezer and cooler units and install new, fully‑equipped walk‑in refrigeration systems at eight school facilities throughout Memphis, Tennessee. The contract is a fixed‑price, one‑year term with an optional one‑year renewal and includes a 1‑year parts‑and‑labor warranty, a 5‑year compressor warranty, and 24/7 service support for the first year. Bidders must hold current Tennessee contractor, mechanical and electrical licenses, provide required insurance, undergo background checks, and comply with numerous certifications (non‑discrimination, anti‑bribery, non‑boycott, etc.). The scope also covers all necessary permits, structural penetrations, electrical work, and provision of lighting, ramps, and shelving. • Supply, deliver, and install new walk‑in freezers and coolers (including compressors, copper lines, control wiring, lighting, ramps, shelving) at eight specified school sites. • Remove and properly dispose of existing units, obtain permits, and coordinate with school facilities staff; all work must meet NSF, UL, CSA, and federal energy standards. • Provide a 1‑year comprehensive warranty plus a 5‑year compressor warranty, and deliver 24/7 service throughout the first contract year; optional renewal requires price‑reduction proposals.

Budget Estimate (AI):

$200,000 – $500,000

Based on typical costs for commercial walk‑in freezers and coolers (including equipment, freight, removal of old units, installation, permitting, and first‑year service), each unit can range from $30,000 to $50,000. Multiplying by eight locations yields a contract value roughly between $240,000 and $400,000. Adding contingency for permits, warranty work, and service support could push the upper bound toward $500,000. Therefore a reasonable estimate for the total budget is $200k‑$500k. Factors influencing the final amount include the specific brand/model selected (approved equivalents may be less expensive), site conditions requiring extra structural work, and any cost‑reduction proposals the vendor offers during renewal.
