Public Works <br />12.F.1. 17-1244 Designation of Trane U.S. Inc., as Sole Source Provider for HVAC Control <br />Systems and Service Contracts for the Control Systems <br />Recommended Action: Staff recommends the Board of County Commissioners declare Trane U.S. Inc., <br />as the County's sole source provider for HVAC control systems and annual <br />service contracts for the control systems. Staff also recommends that the Board <br />of County Commissioners authorize Purchasing to issue a Purchase Order for <br />$25,880.00 for Trane Building Advantage Agreement Annual Service Contract. <br />Finally, staff recommends the Board authorize the Purchasing Manager to sign <br />the annual service agreements, after they have been reviewed and approved by <br />the County Attorney as to form and legal sufficiency. <br />Attachments: Staff Report <br />Trane Controls Service Agreement <br />Public Works Director Rich Szpyrka provided details regarding the replacement <br />of the old Johnson Control Systems with new Trane heating, ventilation and air <br />conditioning (HVAC) systems. He explained that the original control systems <br />were not compatible with the new systems that Trane uses, and requested to use <br />Trane U.S., Inc. as the County's sole source provider for HVAC control systems <br />and annual service contracts for the control systems. <br />Commissioner Zorc suggested that in the future, bid documents use only one <br />vendor/manufacturer to accomplish all the related services for a particular <br />capital project instead of using multiple vendors/manufacturers. He felt that the <br />use of more than one vendor or manufacturer led to compatibility issues and <br />additional unnecessary expense. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Flescher, seconded by Commissioner <br />Adams, to approve staffs recommendation. The motion carried by the following <br />vote: <br />Aye: 5- Chairman O'Bryan, Vice Chairman Solari, Commissioner Adams, Commissioner <br />Flescher, and Commissioner Zorc <br />G Utilities Services <br />Indian River County Florida Page 15 <br />
