SIEMENS f��4N'+ilY'fprG�e- free service. We have extensive experience in assisting in the selection of appropriate fixtures, light level studies, and helping our customers promote the financial and environmental benefits of the Initiative. Our objective is to provide both vendor neutral and objective information to the City, enabling Informed decisions at each project phase. Our final manufacturer evaluation results are reviewed with the customer, in many instances with a sample from each, to narrow the options down to two or three top vendors, who are then asked to provide samples for pilot installations, where the customer, Siemens, and members of the community can take part in a review of the lighting technologies proposed. The Siemens product evaluation and scoring methodologies, for example, helped the City of Huntington Beach save $260,000 - <$1,00,000 over the course of 10 years In total ownership costs. Based on the Information to date, Siemens has already started our evaluation process for the City of Santa Ana, to help narrow down the right vendors for the customers' needs. Beginning with the vendors and catalog numbers provided, Siemens first asked each one to produce pricing for the RFP specified luminaires, as well as an alternate to reflect changes In their product lines. Then Siemens did a deep dive Into the fixture specifications and DLC QPL data, to evaluate and score each package. There are currently (6) vendors listed. All except (1) have identifiable changes to product performance. Siemens has used these product changes to produce alternate packages for each vendor. By taking into consideration the criteria listed above, the following scores have been calculated: Acuity(S ec'd) Vendor. A Eaton S ec'd Vendor. D' Acuity (Improved) Vendor. A -Alt Leotek S ecd Vendor. E Cres S ec'd) Vendor. B Leotek (Improved) Vendor. E -Alt Cree (Improved) Vendor. B -Alt Philips (Spec' Vendor. F GES ec'd Vendor. C Phill s (improved) Vendor. F -Alt GEE (Improved) Vendor. C -Alt For decorative style luminaires, Siemens prefers to use new fixtures over retrofit kits when converting from HPS or MH to LED. However, In some instances using an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) retrofit kit that has been designed for the existing fixture does make sense. Typically this is done only in the decorative styles, which usually account for 5% or less of the entire project scope. The Siemens technology evaluation processes are extended throughout all types of technologies that can be installed on a street light or street light pole, including smart city technologies: street light management systems, smart parking, asset management, communications & digital signage, and more. Siemens will continually provide smart city technology Insight to the City of Santa Ana, assuring that additional cost savings or even revenue generating opportunities are not overlooked and considered during the course of the project.
