Line Item Question Response 42 Do your warranties cover all products, parts, and labor? Our warranty structure is set forth to protect our clients against faulty products installed by or workmanship completed by our personnel. Our warranties cover all products, parts, and labor associated with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Controls Fire Protection LP installed or serviced system. * 43 Describe any performance or service standards or guarantees that apply to your solutions (policies, metrics, KPIs, response times, up-time guarantees, etc.). A schedule of values is provided with each proposal that provides details of the service or product being provided, outlines timelines, billing, and responsible parties. There are standard communication and response time protocols (See Documents) * 44 Do your warranties impose usage restrictions or other limitations that adversely affect coverage? There are no usage limitations in our warranty system for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Controls Fire Protection LP installed or serviced systems. * 45 Do your warranties cover the expense of technicians' travel time and mileage to perform warranty repairs? Technician travel time and mileage to perform warranty repairs are covered under our warranty program. * 46 Are there any geographic regions of the United States or Canada (as applicable) for which you cannot provide a certified technician to perform warranty repairs? How will Sourcewell participating entities in these regions be provided service for warranty repair? Due to the presence of our company-owned district offices throughout North America, we are not aware of any geographic region where we cannot provide warranty repair services. * 47 Will you cover warranty service for items made by other manufacturers that are part of your proposal, or are these warranties issues typically passed on to the original equipment manufacturer? As indicated above, our policy states we will warranty a system installed by our technicians for a period of 1 year from the date of the customer beneficial use. Service parts carry a 90 day warranty from the date of installation by a qualified technician. Different manufacturers may offer their own equipment warranties that cover the replacement cost of specific system components. * 48 What are your proposed exchange and return programs and policies? According to the specific terms of each client's agreement, we can exchange a faulty piece of equipment or system component under warranty for its current equivalent. Equipment that cannot be repaired, or that is part of a legacy system no longer supported, will be replaced at the client's request. * 49 Describe any service contract options for the items included in your proposal. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Controls offers a suite of advanced connected life-safety services and technologies powered by OpenBlue. This suite is combined with our technicians' extensive industry knowledge and training to help ensure improved performance and reliability, code compliance, and operational efficiency of customers' fire and life-safety systems. • Rapid response and issue resolution through Remote Service Support • Predictive Diagnostics to diagnose deficiencies and extend equipment life • Connected systems providing automatic notifications to helping prevent system failures • 24/7 monitoring and live advisory support • Preventative maintenance for enhanced system performance and false alarm reduction • Xaap (SaaS) solution that provides a centralized platform for building compliance data 1-5 year plans are available. We cover parts and labor for normal wear and tear. We also offer preventative maintenance plans where we proactively test systems and provide detailed status reports on findings. These can be performed monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, or annually based upon your needs. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Controls Maintenance Plan will distinguish between hardware and software preventive maintenance. In general, computer-skilled technicians perform software preventive maintenance, and hardware preventive maintenance is performed by our Maintenance Technicians. An important part of our maintenance approach is the incorporation of the individual security system's preventive maintenance requirements as specified by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). * 50 What are your payment terms (e.g., net 10, net 30)? Payment terms are Net 30 for all invoices. For contracting sales, a schedule of values will be outlined and agreed to regarding payment intervals throughout the installation process. *
Emergency Response Partners must develop, maintain, and carry out a response plan for public water system emergencies, including disease outbreaks, spills, operational failures, and water system contamination. Partners must notify DWS in a timely manner of emergencies that may affect drinking water supplies.
Primary Frequency Response Developer shall ensure the primary frequency response capability of its Large Generating Facility by installing, maintaining, and operating a functioning governor or equivalent controls. The term “functioning governor or equivalent controls” as used herein shall mean the required hardware and/or software that provides frequency responsive real power control with the ability to sense changes in system frequency and autonomously adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in accordance with the droop and deadband parameters and in the direction needed to correct frequency deviations. Developer is required to install a governor or equivalent controls with the capability of operating: (1) with a maximum 5 percent droop ± 0.036 Hz deadband; or (2) in accordance with the relevant droop, deadband, and timely and sustained response settings from an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for equivalent or more stringent parameters. The droop characteristic shall be: (1) based on the nameplate capacity of the Large Generating Facility, and shall be linear in the range of frequencies between 59 and 61 Hz that are outside of the deadband parameter; or (2) based on an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. The deadband parameter shall be: the range of frequencies above and below nominal (60 Hz) in which the governor or equivalent controls is not expected to adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations. The deadband shall be implemented: (1) without a step to the droop curve, that is, once the frequency deviation exceeds the deadband parameter, the expected change in the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations shall start from zero and then increase (for under-frequency deviations) or decrease (for over-frequency deviations) linearly in proportion to the magnitude of the frequency deviation; or (2) in accordance with an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. Developer shall notify NYISO that the primary frequency response capability of the Large Generating Facility has been tested and confirmed during commissioning. Once Developer has synchronized the Large Generating Facility with the New York State Transmission System, Developer shall operate the Large Generating Facility consistent with the provisions specified in Articles 9.5.5.1 and 9.5.5.2 of this Agreement. The primary frequency response requirements contained herein shall apply to both synchronous and non-synchronous Large Generating Facilities.
