Districtwide Fire Suppression Replacement, Maintenance, and Repair

The El Paso Independent School District (EPISD) is soliciting qualified, licensed fire‑protection contractors to provide comprehensive, district‑wide services for fire suppression systems across 86 school facilities. The scope includes routine inspection, testing, preventive maintenance, emergency repair, component replacement, and full system replacements for wet‑pipe, dry‑pipe, pre‑action, foam, clean‑agent, and wet‑chemical systems, as well as fire pumps, standpipes, backflow devices, and underground fire service mains.
