Four CUNY campuses have HVAC or building-systems work bidding out inside a three-week window this fall, and taken together they read like a system-wide mechanical refresh rather than four unrelated jobs.

DASNY has the CUNY York College Science Building HVAC Upgrade due October 1, estimated between $3 million and $4.5 million. Four days later, on October 5, CUNY's own Facilities Planning, Construction & Management office closes bidding on Ingersoll HVAC Upgrades at Brooklyn College — the same Ingersoll Hall that shows up in a separate DASNY solicitation due September 23 covering fire pump replacement and standpipe extensions across four Brooklyn College buildings (Heating Plant, Heat and Chiller Plant, Ingersoll Hall, and LaGuardia Hall), estimated between $2,895,549 and $3,200,343. In between, on October 2, CUNY is bidding new workstations, a storefront glazing upgrade, and HVAC and IT work at the CUNY School of Professional Health in Manhattan.

“A contractor chasing one Brooklyn College job needs to know the other exists — they likely share the same laydown space.”

That's two separate Brooklyn College mechanical contracts landing less than two weeks apart from two different contracting agencies — DASNY runs the fire-pump and standpipe job, CUNY's own facilities office runs the Ingersoll HVAC upgrade. A contractor chasing one Brooklyn College job needs to know the other exists, because they likely share site logistics, laydown space, and possibly the same building.

For a mechanical contractor or a fire protection sub with CUNY experience, this is four separate bid dates worth calendaring rather than one job to chase: DASNY's Brooklyn College fire pump work closes September 23, York College's HVAC job closes October 1, the School of Professional Health work closes October 2, and Brooklyn College's Ingersoll HVAC job closes October 5. Each has its own registration and bond requirements through its own contracting agency — DASNY for two of the four, CUNY facilities directly for the other two.

None of these postings carry public plan-holder counts yet, so there's no read on how crowded any of these bid rooms will be. Firms bidding one should check whether DASNY's or CUNY's own portal lists addenda for the others — campus-wide work like this tends to generate site-access coordination language between packages.
