The new MRI is scheduled to be delivered and installed in November of 2023 and upon start-up of the MRI, all supporting systems must be functional, especially cooling systems. Due to the lead time associated with one of the air conditioning units required to keep the equipment cool, a temporary cooling unit will need to be used until the time when the permanent unit arrives and is installed. The reason why two units are requested is so that if the portable unit has trouble or fails, the second unit can be set up to take over the cooling load. 2.0 SCOPE OF WORK The scope of work for this is limited to purchase and delivery of the portable cooling units to be installed by Carrigg Commercial Builders or their designated sub-contractor. The units shall be delivered to the Manchester NH VA Medical Center located at 718 Smyth Road. 3.0 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE The delivery of the portable cooling units must be received no later than October 1, 2023. 4.0 REQUIRED BRAND NAMES The following brand names (and model number) are required because of the cooling and electrical requirements specific to support this project and the Manchester VAMC.
