RECOMMENDED ACTION
Amend the contract with Valley Power Systems, Inc., to increase the
aggregate limit by $15,000 for vehicle Allison transmission and generator
maintenance and repairs, in an annual amount not to exceed $25,000.
DISCUSSION
The Fleet Maintenance Division of Finance and Management Services Agency is
responsible for basic maintenance of all City-owned vehicles, including
fire apparatus. Larger repairs, or those requiring specialized tools are
contracted out including service on Allison transmissions. Valley Power
Systems, Inc., is a local authorized Allison transmissions shop that offers
warranty repairs as well as maintenance and overhaul service on large
Allison engines.
In addition, the division Valley Detroit Diesel Allison was consolidated
under the name of Valley Power Systems in 2004. This action merged the
Allison transmission repair section with the division Building Maintenance
contracts to service generators at Fire Stations, City Hall, Corporate Yard
and the Police Department. The recommended action will allow for
uninterrupted service to both Fleet and Building Maintenance while bids are
solicited for long-term contracts.
