BACKGROUND Tri-Signal Integration, Inc. was selected as the maintenance contractor for the inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair of the City's fire alarm system in FY 2020/21. There are a total of 27 facilities included in this maintenance agreement equipped with fire alarm panels, pull stations, and sprinkler systems. Per the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), monthly, quarterly, and annual testing of the fire alarm and wet pipe system is required. In 2021, unforeseen repairs were necessary to several City facilities. These unforeseen repairs along with the other required system maintenance and testing for the duration of the agreement will exceed the current amount of the agreement ($150,000). DISCUSSION The current agreement with Tri-Signal Integration, Inc. is a three-year agreement with an option for two one-year extensions for a total not-to-exceed-amount of$150,000. Due to unforeseen repairs of several facilities' fire systems, including water pumping stations, sewer lift stations, and the Callippe Preserve Golf Course, an increase to the agreement is being requested to ensure all City owned facilities and fire stations meet required communication upgrades by the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department. Therefore, staff is estimating that an additional $100,000 would cover these repairs, continued system maintenance, and any other unforeseen repairs through the term of the agreement. The total not-to-exceed amount of the agreement will be $250,000. Per the City's Purchasing policy, any agreement over $100,000 must be approved by City Council. The increase to the agreement amount will allow compliance with the NFPA requirements and any necessary repairs.
