1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the appropriation of $80,000.000 within the Street Construction, Maintenance and Repair Fund for the Division of Infrastructure Management and authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into a contract with DeBra-Kuempel Inc., in the amount of up to $80,000.00 for HVAC services for the Division of Infrastructure Management.

Since the Department of Public Service does not have personnel able to fulfill this requirement, the Department solicited the services of a contractor.

On April 16, 2014, the Department of Public Service, Office of Support Service solicited Requests for Proposals for HVAC services for the Division of Infrastructure Management; five (5) bids were received. The proposals were evaluated by a five (5) member Evaluation Committee which included Facilities and Public Service employees. Proposals were submitted by the organizations shown below.

Company Name City/State
General Temperature Control Inc. Canal Winchester, OH
Kirk Williams Service Company Grove City, OH
DeBra-Kuempel Inc. Columbus, OH
