LEE COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT Gulf Middle School - Cape Coral, Florida Client: School District of Lee County Reference: Alina Morales Contract: Continuing Professional Services Services: Architecture • Civil • Structural • Mechanical • Electrical • Plumbing • Fire Protection PROJECT OVERVIEW Crain Atlantis provides as-needed professional services to the School District of Lee County under a continuing services contract that encompasses architecture and multidisciplinary engineering. Under this contract, Crain was authorized in 2023 to provide professional engineering services for the Gulf Middle School Chilled Water Piping Renovation, a fast-track campus-wide infrastructure improvement project. CRAIN ATLANTIS' ROLE Campus-Wide Infrastructure Improvements The baseline scope included removal and replacement of the existing Schedule 40 steel chilled-water supply and return piping throughout the campus. Mechanical Equipment Replacement An approved add-alternate expanded the project to include complete removal and replacement of 10 rooftop units. The overall project ultimately included the replacement of chilled-water piping, 10 air- handling units, new rooftop units, 25 exhaust fans, and 104 variable air-volume boxes. Electrical, Controls & Energy Management A second add-alternate included campus-wide removal and replacement of the existing energy management system, including controls, wiring, and associated components, demonstrating Crain's ability to coordinate electrical and control systems with major mechanical infrastructure improvements. Fast-Track Project Delivery The District required an accelerated design and construction schedule. Crain coordinated closely with the School District and contractors to advance the work within the compressed timeframe. Successful Project Performance Despite the fast-track schedule and extensive campus-wide scope, the project was completed under budget and ahead of schedule.
