Agenda Item

Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on approving agreement #2023157 between Williamson County and Carrier Corporation for a like-for-like replacement of two (2) Trane chillers with two (2) new Carrier model 30XV180 screw compressor air-cooled chillers in the amount of four hundred and four thousand two hundred and seven dollars ($404,207.00) and exempting this purchase from the competitive bid/proposal requirements pursuant to the discretionary exemption as set forth under Texas Local Government Code § 262.024 (a)(3) [an item necessary because of unforeseen damage to public property] and authorizing execution of the agreement.

Background

The service agreement is for the like-for-like replacement of two (2) Trane model RTAA 170 ton air-cooled chillers with two (2) new Carrier chillers at the Criminal Justice Center located at 405 Martin Luther King Dr, Georgetown, TX 78626. Scope of work includes removal and properly disposing of existing Trane machines, installing of new Carrier models, expanding of Automated Logic WebCTRL Building Automation System, all permit fees, one (1) year labor warranty on project installation and two to five (2-5) year complete unit part and labor warranty. On January 24, 2023, under agenda item #18, an emergency agreement was approved for chiller rentals due to the county losing one power leg of a 3-phase power system which led to equipment damage by the single phasing. A rental agreement with an estimated time of ten (10) month was established with Carrier. The current rental units will be removed and taken offline once complete installation of first machine and verification of proper operation then installation and start-up of second machine. Budget and Contract Audit have approved this agreement and purchase.  Funding Source is 01.0100.1009.004509. Department point of contact is Gina Wrehsnig or Christi Stromberg.
