HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 03252014 - C.09RECOMMENDATION(S): APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Fire Chief, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Freschi Air Systems, Inc. increasing the payment limit by $50,000 for a new payment limit of $332,000 for a Guaranteed Maintenance Service Agreement for Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) services for an additional one-year period from March 1, 2014 to February 28, 2015. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost to the District for guaranteed maintenance is $50,000 for a one-year period extending the original four-year agreement. This cost adjustment represents an increase to the original Agreement pursuant to the Consumer Price Index adjustment in the terms of the Invoicing and Payment Provisions. BACKGROUND: The District has thirty-six facilities with approximately 140 pieces of HVAC equipment. Over the past twelve years of guaranteed maintenance agreements, the District has found that it is both economically and operationally efficient to have these agreements for District HVAC equipment. This agreement ensures that District equipment is maintained to its highest operating level and that in the event of a mechanical problem, a qualified, competent, and obligated service provider will respond to affect repairs in a timely manner.
