DISCUSSION: The Water Department approached the Purchasing Division for assistance with securing an agreement for the purchase of gas turbine engine exchanges and/or overhaul services for the two Solar Taurus 60 gas turbines located at Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility. The two gas turbines that provide electricity for Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility are in need of their engines to be exchanged or overhaul services to be completed on the existing engines as they have both exceeded the recommended runtime for the engine. Purchasing issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) that consisted of the service requirements to ensure the engines are properly exchanged or overhauled, tested, and re- installed, and the warranty requirements to ensure if the exchanged or overhauled engines have any defects in materials or workmanship, the vendor will remedy these issues. The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on June 26, 2024, July 3, 2024, July 10, 2024, and July 17, 2024. The City received two responses. An evaluation panel consisting of representatives from the Water and Transportation and Public Works Departments reviewed and scored the proposals using Best Value criteria. The individual scores were averaged for each of the criteria and the final scores are listed in the table below. Proposer Evaluation Factors EF][ c d Total score Ethos Energy Light Turbines, LLC 16.00 16.50 16.50 25.05 74.05 Solar Turbines Incorporated 16.5Q 15.50 16.50 40.00 88.50 Best Value Criteria: a. Contractor's experience and availability of a testing facility to complete the turbine exchanges and/or overhauls b. Contractor's timeframe for exchange or overhaul to be completed c. Contractor's ability to meet the City's needs d. Cost of services After evaluation, the panel concluded that Solar Turbines Incorporated presented the best value. Therefore, the panel recommends that Council authorize an agreement with Solar Turbines Incorporated. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of services would be purchased. Staff certifies that the recommended vendor's proposal met specifications. It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) throughout the Fiscal Year (FY), instead of within the annual budget ordinance, as projects commence, additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants. The actions in the Mayor & Council Communication will appropriate funds in support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program, as follows: 13P RFP 24-0239 GAS TURBINE ENGINE EXCHANGE AND OR OVERHAUL AW Capital Budget Revised Fund Project FY2024CIP Authority Change FY2024 Name Name Appropriations (Increase/ Budget Decrease) Fund 105699 — 56002 - FY24Non- W&S Fleet $0.00 This M&C $2,200,000.00 $2,200,000.00 Capital Equipment Projects Funding is budgeted in the Transfer to Water/Sewer account of the Water operating budget for the purpose of purchasing the Gas Turbine Engine Exchange and/or Overhaul Services within FY24 Non -Fleet Equipment project in the Water & Sewer Capital Projects Fund.
