This contract shall also include the Contractor providing “as-needed” repairs on the exercise equipment, when authorized by the County through a Purchase Order (PO). Repairs may require the need for visits outside the regularly scheduled maintenance schedule.

Preventative maintenance and associated inspections must be made on a quarterly basis (i.e., approximately once every 90 days) or as additionally requested by the Sheriff’s office. Preventive maintenance and repair services shall be performed only between the hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays), unless requested otherwise by the County. If any equipment is replaced, preventive maintenance for the new equipment will not be performed and will not be charged during the new equipment’s warranty period, unless the machine’s warranty requires such preventative maintenance as requested by the Sheriff’s Office.

During scheduled preventative maintenance visits, Contractor must conduct a preventative maintenance inspection on each item of equipment and make minor adjustments and repairs. The types of preventative maintenance tasks that are performed for each machine must be appropriate for that type of machine. Preventative maintenance tasks include but are not limited to the following:

• Check that guide rods are functioning properly and are free of signs of wear

• Check upholstery to make sure it has not become cracked or torn

• Check that the various parts of the machine are still properly secure and have not become loose or wobbly

• Check bolts, screws, and welded points for any loosening and other signs of wear

• Minor repairs of issues found during the above inspections

The Contractor is to provide “as-needed” repairs on the exercise equipment, when authorized by the County through a written Purchase Order (PO).

Equipment replacement is not included as part of a successful contract. County will follow County ordinances and policies to procure replacements. Contractor will not:

• Be precluded from submitting a bid in any competitive solicitation process to replace equipment.
