A critical component of the emergency operation plan are 17 <br />diesel and gas powered backup generators, strategically located at City <br />Hall, the Corporation Yard, the Police Administration Building, the <br />Regional Transportation Center, and ten fire stations. To maintain good <br />working condition, the generators require inspection and service semi- <br />annually by factory-trained technicians. <br />Due to the critical nature of the service, staff determined that basing <br />selection solely on cost was not in the City's best interest. Therefore, <br />requests for proposals for preventive maintenance were solicited on June <br />16, 2008 and four proposals were received. Staff from both the Police <br />Department Facilities Division and the Building Maintenance Division of <br />the FMSA evaluated the proposals in the areas of proposal completeness, <br />technical expertise, strength stability, references and customer service. <br />The evaluation results are as follows: <br />25J-1 <br />
