This is a Cost Proposal document for the City of Palo Alto's Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Compressor Repair/Maintenance contract. The contract encompasses comprehensive preventative maintenance and emergency repair services for two CNG fueling stations at the Municipal Services Center over a three-year term. The scope of work includes quarterly preventative maintenance services (3 occurrences per year), annual preventative maintenance service (1 occurrence per year), call-out services during normal weekday hours (estimated 40 hours annually), call-out services during normal weekday after-hours (1 hour unit pricing), and call-out services for weekends and holidays (1 hour unit pricing). Additionally, contractors must provide parts, materials, and consumables on a lump-sum basis with an estimated annual value of $10,000.

The cost proposal is structured as a three-year bid with separate bid tables for each year (Years One, Two, and Three), with identical line items across all years. Bidders must provide unit prices for each service category and calculate total item prices, with all costs inclusive of labor, equipment, transportation, miscellaneous overhead, and taxes. Items 3 and 6 are noted as having estimated values for parts costs and anticipated call-out hours that may vary based on actual conditions. The proposal requires subtotal calculations for each year and a grand total across the three-year contract period. All pricing submissions must include applicable taxes in the final calculations.
