DISCUSSION:
The Public Works Department is responsible for the maintenance and repair of City facilities and buildings. This includes the maintenance and repair of the buildings’ heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The Department uses a combination of in-house staff and contract services to maintain and repair over 160 HVAC units.
The Public Works Department has recently completed the Request for Proposal (RFP) process for HVAC Full-Service Maintenance and Replacement (SP-03-PW-22). The RFP’s scope of work includes the contractor providing preventative maintenance services including a plan for scheduled maintenance services and status reports of ongoing operating conditions of all HVAC equipment. In addition, the Contractor shall repair/replace any component or part necessary to keep all City HVAC systems in good working condition and may make recommendations to the City for equipment that may need to be replaced.
As part of the bid process, Purchasing notified one hundred forty-nine (149) vendors. Proposal packets were downloaded by twenty-two (22) vendors. The City received one (1) response. Four (4) Fontana vendors were notified and none submitted a bid. After evaluating the vendor responses, it is recommended that Allison Mechanical Inc. be awarded the HVAC Full-Service Maintenance and Replacement Services contract. It was found that Allison Mechanical Inc. was the most responsive, responsible bidder. The Purchasing Office has reviewed this report and concurs with this recommendation.
