EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On February 2, 2009, the Procurement Department, in conjunction with the Maintenance Department, issued an RFP for the maintenance and repair of full service major HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) equipment. The five suppliers awarded are Factory Authorized Service Agents, by manufacturer, for proprietary maintenance and repair of systems in the Air Conditioning and Energy Management Services Department.  Maintenance and repair consist of all chilled and condenser water pumps, associated motors, electrical wiring, and piping of HVAC equipment.  Preventative maintenance was performed at all the sites.  Many of the sites required service or repair within the last year.  Nine sites required major repairs for catastrophic failure.

The initial term for this award was from June 10, 2009 to June 9, 2011, with four additional one-year renewal options, negotiable yearly.  The suppliers have agreed to renew for the period beginning June 10, 2011, and ending June 9, 2012, with prices, terms, and conditions to remain unchanged.  The Superintendent is authorized to approve the renewal agreement for the term of the specifications.
