The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Gaithersburg, Maryland campus is a Research and Development (R&D) facility with 52 buildings located on a 232-hectare site. The NIST site has approximately 3,424,353 GSF of floor space including R&D, office, and service areas. The majority of the buildings are of brick exterior construction and is approximately 40-45 years old. Utilities are distributed to the individual buildings by underground pipe and electrical distribution systems from central plant services. NIST Campus facilities are provided chilled water, steam, and compressed air from a centralized utility generation plant located on the campus. Commercial high voltage electricity is received at a main sub-station and distributed radially by multiple facility spot networks. Laboratory facilities typically utilize specialized controls such as uninterrupted power, compressed gas systems, clean-room technologies and tight-tolerance air temperature control systems for the conduct of research and experimental studies. NIST campus has three (3) Boland Trane chillers that are not part of the campus central utility plant and are not maintained by Government staff. These chillers require regular contractor maintenance to operate properly. To assist in continually meeting its mission, NIST is seeking a Contractor capable of providing on-site preventative maintenance services, repair and emergency services for several chillers whose continuous operation is critical to the reliable operation of air-handling units throughout multiple affected NIST buildings.
