RE: Award Humidifier Additions for Oshkosh Public Museum
BACKGROUND
This past fall the Oshkosh Public Museum's HVAC system underwent a series of updates,
replacements and modifications replacing various outdated or inefficient components, including
all three of the system's 20+ year old humidifiers. Upon completion of the project however, it
was determined the original system design with three humidifiers was providing only
approximately 11/2 of the relative humidity (RH) levels required for museum environments. After a
review of the system with Summit Designs, our HVAC engineering firm, it was determined the
HVAC system required two additional humidifiers to provide the desired museum environment of
50 -55 RH,
ANALYSIS
Working with Summit Designs and staff from the Museum and Facilities Maintenance,
Purchasing prepared bid specifications to address the humidifier additions. Bids were advertised
on our online NovusVendor system and in the local paper. Bids were received on March 3, 2014.
The bid tab is attached. Bids were analyzed and reviewed by Summit Designs and Purchasing.
The review concluded the low bid from B & P Mechanical Inc. of $15,400 met the minimum bid
specifications.
FISCAL LWACT
The fiscal impact of this bid is $15,400. This project will be funded from the 2014
Roofing/HVAC Improvements Project listed in the CIP Public Property Improvements and can be
charged to A/N #: 323 -1070- 7214 - 06435. The 2014 Roofing/HVAC Improvements CIP was
allocated $250,000. This is the first project charged to this fund.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this project to B & P Mechanical Inc. for
$15,400.
Respectfully Submitted,
