Invitation to Bid

Salamatof Boiler Room Renovation

Cook Inlet Housing Authority (CIHA) is accepting sealed bids from responsible and responsive contractors for the Salamatof Boiler Room Renovation, located at 9131 Centennial Circle, Anchorage, Alaska.

The scope of work for this project includes the removal and replacement of the boiler system, water heater system, all associated pumps and piping systems, as well as the removal of components from the abandoned snowmelt system. Additionally, the contractor will be responsible for completing any necessary electrical work related to the project.

Throughout the construction period, the contractor must ensure the continuous supply of domestic hot and cold water and heat to the building. The contractor has the flexibility to determine the most efficient and cost-effective method for maintaining these utilities, which must be outlined in the Contractor’s Approach Narrative to be submitted with the bid. It is permissible to reuse existing equipment for temporary services, and the heating capacity can be reduced if outdoor conditions allow. For instance, one of the existing boilers may suffice to provide temporary heat during the construction period.

Interruptions to the water and heating systems will be required at certain points. The Owner anticipates two disconnections per system—one to connect a temporary system and another to connect the newly remodeled system. The Owner prefers that water system disconnections occur during nighttime hours, while heat system disconnections take place during daytime hours. The contractor is expected to provide a detailed plan with durations for these interruptions and disconnections in the Contractor’s Approach Narrative.

The anticipated start date is November 1, 2024, and the completion date is anticipated to be August 30, 2025.

100% Performance and Payment will be required for the project.

Bids must be hand delivered or mailed to CIHA at 3510 Spenard Rd, Anchorage, Alaska 99503 or emailed to procurement@cookinlethousing.org by the deadline. Bids received after this time shall not be accepted. It is the bidder’s responsibility to ensure its bid is received at the specified location and time.
