Pennridge facilities team recommends contractors for summer 2026 projects; roofing bids still pending
Summary
ICS presented summer 2026 capital priorities and low bids for mechanical, generator and controls scopes; staff recommended Hirschberg for mechanical upgrades (low bid $777,000 plus $19,000 condensing‑boiler alternate), BSI for generators ($509,000, over the $437,000 budget line), and Southland for controls ($383,000). Roofing bids remained due.
ICS representatives told the Pennridge Facilities Committee that summer 2026 work will focus on keeping schools "warm, safe, dry" and presented bid outcomes for three of four scopes.
For mechanical upgrades (scope 1) the original budget was roughly $848,000; the low bid was Hirschberg at $777,000 with a $19,000 alternate to install a higher‑efficiency condensing boiler. ICS recommended proceeding with the Hirschberg low bid and considering the $19,000 condensing boiler alternate based on projected life‑cycle energy savings.
