Emergency Generator Maintenance Program
The University seeks an experienced qualified firm(s) to design and implement a
complete program to provide Preventative Maintenance, Emergency Service, and Repair
of the Universitys emergency generators. This RFP is part of a competitive procurement
process which helps to serve the University's best interests. It also provides firms with a
fair opportunity for their services to be considered. The process of competitive
negotiation being used in this case should not be confused with the different process of
competitive sealed bidding. The latter process is usually used where the goods or
services being procured can be described precisely and price is generally the
determinative factor. With competitive negotiation, however, price is not required to be
the determinative factor, although it may be, and the University has the flexibility it
needs to negotiate with firms to arrive at a mutually agreeable relationship.
