Vendor: Preventative Maintenance Technologies, LLC
MOTION
Upon recommendation of Cheryl Porter, Chief Operating Officer - Water and Field Services, the Board of Directors (Board) of the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA), authorizes the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to enter into Contract No. 2001082 (SCN-0000145), Proposed Amendment No. 4, “Standby Generator Preventative Maintenance and Repair Services” with Preventative Maintenance Technologies, LLC, with no increase in cost for a total cost not to exceed $2,612,706.83 and an increased duration of 200 days for a total duration of 1,845 days; and authorizes the CEO to take such other action as may be necessary to accomplish the intent of this vote.
BACKGROUND
GLWA operates 67 generators between five (5) water treatment plants,15 booster stations and six (6) support sites. All GLWA standby generators require annual and semi-annual preventative maintenance service as well as repair services to ensure they operate properly to provide back-up power to their facilities. Annual load bank testing and operational testing of these generators are also desired as part of scheduled preventative maintenance to verify proper operation at regular intervals in accordance with National Fire Protection Association 110 and manufacturer’s recommendations. Annual Automatic Transfer Switch and switchgear preventative maintenance is conducted, in addition to annual generator preventative maintenance. There are three (3) previous amendments for this contract. Amendment No. 1 added seven (7) additional locations from the water booster stations, and 22 locations from the Water Resource Recovery Facility with no increase in cost. Amendment No. 2 added the Huber location with no increase in cost. Amendment No. 3 was an increase in cost for an additional $1,025,206.83 due to critical repairs needed on a variety of generator equipment.
JUSTIFICATION
The purpose of this amendment is to provide a stop gap between the current contract, ending November 10, 2024, and the replacement contract that is in the Request for Bid process for GLWA facilities and their associated standby generator systems. This contract will continue to provide recurring preventive maintenance of standby generators for GLWA water treatment plants, booster stations and support sites. In addition to preventative maintenance, the vendor will continue troubleshooting, repair, and emergency maintenance as needed up to the execution of the replacement contract. The continuation of this contract ensures that all the standby generator equipment remains reliable.
