Report
Summary
The Airport is served exclusively by a proprietary Honeywell fire alarm network, which consists of a proprietary software application called the Enterprise Building Integrator (EBI) System. The Honeywell fire alarm network is a critical life and safety system that encompasses the entire Airport, including the Rental Car Center and the East Economy parking structures. The EBI System is a front-end computer system that monitors and controls fire alarms, the Energy Manager program, access control and alarm monitoring, and digital video monitoring systems. The EBI System provides a number of unique features for the specialized needs of the Airport. In addition to the fire alarm system, the Airport also uses the EBI System to communicate to the Energy Manager program that enables the Airport to meet the City-mandated goal of a 20 percent reduction in energy consumption by 2020.
The fire alarm network is an Underwriters Laboratories listed network that conforms to all fire alarm and building codes. Fire alarm system engineering and programming must be performed by qualified individuals trained by the manufacturer and certified by the National Institute for Certification of Engineering Technologies (NICET). Honeywell will provide Honeywell-trained and NICET-certified staff to perform file maintenance, fire alarm panel programming, install software updates, and virus detection maintenance.
Procurement Information
The Honeywell fire alarm system and Energy Manager program are proprietary to Honeywell. The Honeywell EBI System requires specific expertise regarding installation and maintenance. Therefore, Honeywell does not sell EBI System components or services through dealers, distributors, contractors, or subcontractors, but only through factory-trained Honeywell Building Solutions branch offices.
Contract Term
The term of the contract is three years commencing on or about May 1, 2018. The contract will include two options to extend the term for one year each.
Financial Impact
The total cost of the contract will not exceed $1,828,000 over the five-year term of the contract if all options to extend are exercised. Funds are available in the Aviation Department's budget.
