Summary: So as to ensure product consistency and standardization of service parts and maintenance protocol the Board of Education, on October 24, 2006, approved a Resolution Regarding the Designation of Specific Material, Product, Thing or Service pertaining exclusively to the equipment and materials to be used in the Proposition 55 Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Improvement Program.

Plans and specifications for new HVAC systems for the twenty-eight (28) sites identified in the 2010 Measure C Facility Improvement Program are presently being developed and the District is on track for a spring/summer 2012 project start for the Group I sites. In an effort to once again ensure that the District obtains the highest quality, most efficient and maintainable products and materials, staff is again recommending that 1) the District adopt a resolution designating the specific materials to be used in the Measure C HVAC Improvement Program and 2) the District pre-purchase all end user HVAC equipment.

Public Contract Code Section 3400 allows school districts to call for specific material(s) by brand or product name 1) in order to match other products in use on a particular public improvement either completed or in the course of completion (PCC 3400[b][2]) and 2) in order to obtain a necessary item that is only available from one source (PCC 3400 [b] [3]).

In order to retain and ensure product consistency with existing, recently installed equipment and to address the unique applications in district facilities, staff is recommending specifying the following products as being the only acceptable products for use in the 2010 Measure C HVAC Improvement Program:

- Carrier #48HC Ultra High Efficiency Package Units
- Team Air Custom Equipment Enclosures
- Mitsubishi City Multi #PURY Heat Reclaim VariableRefrigerant Flow (VRF) Heat Pump Split Systems
Funding: 2010 Measure C Funds
Fiscal Impact Undetermined, but will significantly reduce initial program costs as well as ongoing expenditures related to electricity and natural gas.
