This Service Agreement excludes parts and replacement batteries, as stated in their published Statement of Work.

Reason of Need

During the most recent Preventive Maintenance the technician noted the 16 batteries of the UPS are End of Life (EOL). Schneider Electric through Critical Components, Inc, sent a quote for a Modular Battery Replacement Service (MBRS). This service includes shipping of batteries to the site, inside delivery to the location of the UPS, removal of EOL batteries, installation of replacement batteries, system checks after installation, removal of EOL batteries from the site, and recycling/disposal of the EOL batteries.

Description of work needed GSA IT Facilities Management Branch is in need of a vendor that is an Authorized Solutions Partner for Schneider Electric qualified to perform work on an APC SYMMETRA PX UPS to perform a Modular Battery Replacement Service (MBRS) of (16) battery units, which includes the installation of new OEM batteries, labor during normal business hours, to perform battery installation & system configuration, and recycling of waste batteries. The selected vendor will need to provide inside delivery of the batteries which includes offloading from a box truck with a lift gate and pallet jack (no semi trucks allowed at the loading dock area) at the loading dock of the building, transporting the batteries inside the building to a staging area. The batteries need to be replaced in accordance with Schneider Electric procedures, during normal business hours.
