Generator Services

The City of Napa, through its Public Works Department, is soliciting proposals for comprehensive generator maintenance and repair services under solicitation 2026-RFP-055. The primary objective is to ensure the continuous and reliable operation of the City's generators through semi-annual Level I preventive maintenance performed every April and October. This scope of work includes detailed inspections of cooling and engine systems, electrical controls, battery and fuel systems, and the performance of infrared heat checks on cabinet connectors and switchgear while the units are operating under load. All replacement parts must be new and of equal or better quality than the original equipment. Proposals will be evaluated on a points-based system to determine the most advantageous offer, with a strong emphasis on the respondent's business qualifications, experience with public agencies over the last five years, and the proposed work plan. Applicants must provide a total not-to-exceed cost that includes all labor, materials, and required insurance. Key requirements include DIR registration for public works compliance, the provision of resumes for key personnel, and the potential for staff to obtain security clearances. Once awarded, the contractor must submit monthly invoices featuring detailed work descriptions and hourly rates, with payments due within 30 days of service completion. All work is subject to the approval of the Public Works Department, and invoices must be accompanied by detailed station reports including pass/fail results and measured values.
