What Virginia has spent on this

Purchase orders for heating, cooling and ventilation services totalled $57.9 million in 2024, up 70% from 2023 ($34.1 million). Over the five years shown the yearly total ran from $26.1 million to $57.9 million.

Yearly order totals, newest data on the right. Purchase orders placed through the Commonwealth's e-procurement system by state agencies, colleges and universities, and the local governments that choose to use it (local use is voluntary, so local spending is understated). Calendar years by order date; order amounts, not payments. Published after each year ends, so the newest full year is the previous one.

How to bid on notices like these

Read the whole notice first: the due date and time, how to submit, and whether a pre-bid meeting or site visit is required.
Check you qualify: registration with the buyer, licences, insurance, bonding, and any small-business or local preference.
Ask questions before the question deadline; the answers usually go to every bidder.
Price the whole scope and include every form the notice asks for. A missing form or signature can disqualify a bid.
Submit early. Portals slow down near a deadline, and late bids are normally rejected.

For HVAC & mechanical: Check which licence the notice requires, and whether service calls, parts and after-hours work are priced separately.
