APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT FOR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE OF THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT CHILLER WITH DAIKEN APPLIED
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a contract with Daikin
Applied Americas Inc, d/b/a Daikin Applied for preventive maintenance of the Police
Department Chiller.
Overview
This contract pertains to preventive maintenance services for the chiller at the Police
Department. The chiller, while a part of the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC)
system, is sufficiently specialized that a separate preventive maintenance contract is necessary.
Problems with the chiller in past years and reliance on a general HVAC contractor for preventive
maintenance and repairs have resulted in increased costs associated with troubleshooting and
time spent in consultation with the manufacturer’s representative, Daikin Applied. By
contracting with the manufacturer’s representative, the goal is to reduce maintenance costs and
increase the operational availability of the equipment through more accurate problem diagnosis
and faster repair.
This is a sole source contract with Daikin Applied as the manufacturer’s representative. Cost for
services is $3,771.00 and does not require additional quotes per Lakeville’s purchasing policy.
Staff reviewed the contract and associated documents and recommends its approval.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Do we need a separate contact for the chiller? Yes. In our experience with the chiller, a
general HVAC contractor is not well enough acquainted with the equipment and must rely
on consultation with, or direct assistance from, the manufacturer’s representative. This
causes delays in returning the equipment to operation and can adversely affect air movement
and cooling within the building.
Supporting Information
• A copy of the contract for services is attached.
Financial Impact: $3,771.00 Budgeted: Yes Source: Department Budgets
