The Dormitory Authority of the State of New York, or DASNY, is seeking bids to replace a heat exchanger at Clement Hall, part of the University at Buffalo, with asbestos abatement and hazardous materials abatement included in the scope. Bids are due December 3.

The job is at Clement Hall, 5 Goodyear Road, Buffalo, NY, under solicitation number CR#2140046. The posting does not list a trade classification, dollar estimate, or plan-holder count.

Clement Hall has had DASNY money behind it before — a $5.2 million renovation project there was added to the authority's construction portfolio in years past. That history suggests DASNY treats this building as an ongoing priority rather than a one-time fix, which is worth knowing if you're a mechanical or abatement contractor looking to build a relationship with this owner.

For a mechanical contractor with abatement experience or a shop that can team up with an abatement sub, this is a defined scope at a known campus building — not a mystery project. Since DASNY jobs often require specific licensing for asbestos and hazardous materials work, check the solicitation closely for those requirements before you commit estimating time.

Go get the bid documents for CR#2140046, confirm what certifications the abatement portion calls for, and have your submission in before December 3.
