What did you really buy and when do you determine what you have
bought?
When is the job done so you feel comfortable in paying out the
holdback or retention?
The spec and the bidding process should foster the development of
a long term, positive relationship between the Vendor and the
Owner….now it can be a competitive one with BACnet!!
Specifying services
Allow for pager dialouts (local matter). Report dialout using
BACnet (emails to a cell phone).
There are rules for public sector client Bids that are
imposed by the Purchasing department. Sole source or
owner negotiated deals are frowned upon. Purchasing
wants a public, competitive bidding process….this means
more systems on campus or on base.
Set a 3 year period for the selection of approved vendors. We allow for 2
one year renewals. The sunset clause is needed to satisfy Purchasing
requirements
DDC systems lend themselves to awards using methods other than low
Bidder as each Vendor has a different feature set (it is like choosing
between various models of cars).
The process avoids the problem of putting in a desired feature that may
limit competition. You pick which vendor comes closest to your ideal
system.
This clause forms part of the minimum mandatory requirements. Provide proof
of compliance.
List BIBBs
List objects
The chilled water setpoint is user adjustable. The chiller shall use
its own packaged controls to maintain the external setpoint provided
by the DDC system. The packaged chiller controls shall allow the
DDC system to sequence the chillers and receive an alarm signal
when a fault has occurred.
The new format is much better but it will mean a re-write of the spec.
