PART 1 – BID REQUIREMENTS

A. Specifications herein will be incorporated with the State of Indiana Professional Services Contract

Template (found at https://www.in.gov/idoa/state-purchasing/contract-administration/contract-

forms-manuals-and-templates/) to create the full DNR Preventative Maintenance Service

Contract. Prior to submitting their completed Request for Quotation (RFQ) bid packet, Contractors

are responsible for reviewing all clauses in the template and discussing any desired modifications

with the DNR Purchasing Buyer.

B. Prior to bidding, it is the responsibility of each Contractor to thoroughly familiarize themselves with:

• the location(s) of the proposed site(s),

• the tools, materials, parts, and labor necessary to execute the required services,

• each site’s seasonal start-up/shut down timing, maintenance histories, and active equipment

warranties, and

• the existence of any deferred maintenance items.

C. Prior to bidding, and/or as soon as it is known throughout the life of the contract, the Contractor

shall notify the State, in writing, of any deferred maintenance, or obsolete equipment, parts or

components, that are not maintainable under the terms of the contract. Contractors may perform

site visits, if desired, prior to submitting bid proposals to inspect and evaluate all equipment relevant

to the contract. If notification of non-maintainable equipment occurs prior to the bid due/open date,

then the State will inform other bidders accordingly of the disposition of those items, by addendum

of these specifications. If no such notification by the Contractor is given, then the Contractor shall be

responsible, at no additional charge to the State, for the preventative maintenance services for all

items, regardless of condition, as set forth in this contract.

D. At a minimum, pricing which shall be included in the Contractor’s bid are the following: all overhead,

profit, equipment, materials, vehicles, tools, overtime, travel expenses, and labor costs for crews

performing the scheduled service visits.

PART 2 – GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

A. Failure of the Contractor to meet all terms and conditions in the final, executed contract will result in

termination of the contract.

maintenance problems encountered historically,

• Become aware of manufacturer servicing recommendations and any existing equipment

warranties,

• Develop a maintenance protocol, and

• Return to proper condition any system that is discovered not to be in proper operation, as

maintenance recommendations, conditions reports, inspections, etc.) and provide any

relevant maintenance documents that may be missing.

C. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to verify the system equipment and any included

appurtenant devices/systems during the initial inspection and, prior to beginning work, provide a

written assessment of system equipment and appurtenant devices/systems, including any necessary

correction or update to the provided Schedule A (see PART 9 – SCHEDULE A).

schedule submitted by the Contractor and in exception to the conditions and requirements outlined

under this preventative maintenance services contract.

condition.

the scheduled date(s) of service shall be permitted without prior approval from the site’s property

manager or their designee.

F. Any required call-back maintenance within ten (10) calendar days of a scheduled maintenance visit

shall be considered a continuation of the visit service period and not considered as a separate

emergency visit. Call backs on failed equipment which has not received the required service within

the service period shall be considered as covered expenses within this contract and shall not be

charged to the State.

G. No additional fees shall be charged to the State for time spent by the Contractor’s personnel awaiting

the arrival of additional coworkers or the delivery of tools, materials, parts, or equipment, nor will

additional fees be charged for multiple visits resulting from contractor deficiencies including, but not

limited to, inexperienced personnel, incorrect or temporary installation of parts/equipment, or poor

workmanship.

1. Inspect lift station before any service work is begun.

2. Pump down wet well completely and inspect condition of piping components.

3. Remove and dispose of any debris or trash located in the wet well.

entanglement, and deterioration of bolts, fasteners, or piping.

10. Check voltage at panel entrance and check condition of all fuses and breakers.

11. Run pumps individually to check rotation, amperage, and pumping capacity. This can be done by

measuring the wet well, as pump is running and calculating the GPM.

12. Run pumps, in lead lag system: Check for voltage in supply line, adjust for power factor correction,

and service phase converters, if utilized, at least once per year. Note: similar voltage, amperage,

power factor tests SHALL also be conducted at water and wastewater plants, by certified personnel.

Make recommendations based on findings.

13. Check wet well and verify alarm circuit is functioning properly and phone dialer is working (if station

is equipped). Check that warning lights and other devices are working and protected from the
