RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Public Works Director, a purchase order with Air Products Group in an amount not to exceed $550,000 for heating, ventilation and air conditioning filtration components for the period of March 8, 2022 through February 28, 2024, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Facilities Maintenance Budget. (100% General Fund)

BACKGROUND:

Facilities Services maintains all County buildings, including hospitals, clinics, detention centers, and congregate care facilities. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning filtration is part of this maintenance and these products ensure the air filtration systems are performing at their optimum level. Each building maintained by Facilities Services uses several types and sizes of air filters, each designed for specific purposes (e.g., pollen removal, biohazard, prevention, etc.).

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

This request is for a two-year purchase order. The purchase order will be used as needed, with no minimum amount that must be used.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, then purchasing through Air Products Group for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning filtration will be discontinued.
