SCOPE OF WORK: The City of Lawrenceville is requesting quotes from licensed and qualified
contractors to provide all labor, material, and equipment in performing all work necessary for
maintenance, repairs, and/or installations of plumbing systems, components, and fixtures as required by
the City’s service requests. This is an on-demand contract. Annual quantities on the quote schedule are
estimates only. Quantities will vary depending upon need. Services will be utilized on an as-needed
project-by-project basis. The City reserves the right to select multiple vendors to ensure contract scope
and expectations are fulfilled.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS: The Scope of Services includes inspections, maintenance, repairs, and/or
installations of plumbing systems, components, and fixtures as required by the City’s service requests. The
contractor(s) shall provide all labor, equipment, and materials necessary to satisfactorily complete the
project. This is an on-demand contract. Annual quantities on the quote schedule are for price comparison
and are estimates only. Quantities will vary depending upon need. Types of services shall include but not
be limited to:
• Water service lines and valves from the meters to the facilities
• Domestic water piping throughout the facilities
• Commercial and residential grade toilets, urinals, flush valves, sinks, showers, faucets, floor drains,
and associated connections and piping
• Sanitary waste piping within the facilities
• Gas and electric water heaters
• Electric water coolers
• Outdoor and indoor drinking fountains
• Sewer line repair, inspection, and unclogging
• Kitchen equipment connections for gas and water lines

SERVICE CALLS ON A TIME AND MATERIAL BASIS
• The Contractor(s) shall be available on a 24 hour/7day per-week basis and shall respond to service
requirements. The Contractor shall provide all of the transportation, equipment, labor, parts, and
materials needed to complete necessary repairs due to service calls.
• Compensation to the Contractor for service call responses will be based on the hourly labor rates
provided in the quote for the Contract, the actual cost of parts plus a percentage markup indicated in
the same quote (but not to exceed 15%), and a fixed trip charge when applicable. Hours shall be
calculated daily from the time the Contractor’s personnel arrives at a service location until the person
leaves the site. Travel time to and from the location will not be compensated, and travel time away from
the service location will not be compensated on an hourly basis. However, one Service Call Charge of
a fixed amount may be added to a service call to cover all travel time, including time away from the
service site to pick up parts or materials. Overtime labor rates may be charged for time outside of the
“normal hours” specified in the quote. Parts must be itemized and billed at actual cost plus the pre-
determined markup. The Contractor also agrees that it will provide documentation of costs for parts
and materials upon request of the City. This is accomplished by attaching the itemized invoice. Sub-
contractor services when authorized by the City shall be billed at cost plus the same mark-up utilized
for parts and materials. Sub-contractor costs must be documented. The contractor shall be trained and
shall provide trained personnel to perform this type of service.
• As noted above, the City will not pay the hourly labor rate for time to travel to and from the service site
or away from the service location to pick up parts and/or materials. Instead, compensation may include
one Service Call Charge per service call to cover any travel time. This amount will be a flat fee charged
in lieu of hourly time. Example: Repair personnel shows up on job 9:00 AM checks out the problem

and discovers that he needs to replace a part that he does not have on his service vehicle. He leaves the
job site at 10:00 AM, picks up the part, and returns to the job site at 11:30 AM. He completes the repair
at 12:30 PM. Billable costs at the hourly rate are from 9:00 – 10:00 and 11:30 – 12:30, and there is one
Service Call Charge. If an additional technician or technicians are required to perform the work, there
is still only one Service Call Charge.
• Regular hourly rates apply for services performed from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Overtime hourly rates apply for services performed after hours; weekends and holidays. Recognized
holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and
Christmas Day.
• The contractor will typically be expected to use one technician for a routine service call. If the
contractor anticipates using more than one technician for the service, the contractor shall obtain prior
approval from the City representative before committing to the use of additional staff.
• Materials and parts supplied shall be new, of a quality conforming to current engineering and
manufacturing standards, free of defects, and suitable for the intended use. The City reserves the right
to provide materials, parts, and supplies for any authorized work item. Any material purchased by the
contractor and not used shall be returned to the appropriate city representative. Materials required will
be listed on the invoice when submitted and charged at the stated percentage of mark-up over the
contractor’s cost. The contractor agrees to provide documentation of costs for parts and materials upon
request.
QUALITY ASSURANCE:
• All repairs and installations shall be completed in accordance with the applicable State and Local
plumbing, gas, and mechanical codes. When necessary by codes or required by City personnel, the
contractor shall have work permitted and inspected by the appropriate code inspection and/or enforcing
agencies.
• The contractor shall warrant all materials and workmanship for one (1) year after the date of
acceptance by the City. If any of the work is found defective or not in accordance with
applicable codes and standards, the contractor shall correct work promptly, at no cost, and to
the satisfaction of the City. The contractor shall provide the manufacturer’s warranties for any
new fixtures and parts.
