Precision Air awarded county buildings HVAC contract after competitive RFP

County procurement staff told the court they received five proposals for annual HVAC services at county buildings; two proposals were deemed non-responsive because required documents were missing. The evaluation committee recommended awarding the contract to Precision Air, which staff said had the most competitive pricing across preventive maintenance, hourly labor and markup.

Staff reported a preventative maintenance figure phrased in the meeting as "9,425 per 0.25, dollars 37,700 annually" (as read in the transcript) and walked commissioners through the comparisons in the packet. Commissioners asked whether the pricing matched prior years and staff replied it was "very close." After questions, a commissioner moved to accept the committee's recommendation and the court approved the award.

Staff said contract documents and proposal details will be finalized by purchasing and the vendor will begin providing services under the county's annual maintenance schedule.
