A blueprint of the building can be downloaded from our web site at.

Please provide all information requested in this proposal, and then fax completed forms to Rockwell Property Management - RFP Committee at 555-555-5556. Alternatively you can send an Acrobat PDF submission as a single document formatted for printing on letter size paper to.

A committee of four experienced building managers and one security consultant will evaluate all proposals received and select a winner. The five-person committee described above will evaluate proposals according to the following criteria.

Technical Criteria

Technical requirements will be considered in the order explained below. Experience in the building security field We prefer to work with a company that has a minimum of five years of experience. Similarity of past projects As our budget is limited, it would be beneficial to work with a company that knows how to efficiently install and monitor a system of this size. References and guarantees References from current or past clients, as well as guarantees of satisfaction and warranties on equipment, will count in the applicant’s favor.

Financial Criteria

Financial criteria will be evaluated as follows. History of financial stability Applicants must not have outstanding liens or recent bankruptcies in their financial histories. Resources to purchase equipment and pay employees We expect each applicant to be able to complete the project with one-third the total contract amount paid on signing, one-third on the installation complete date, and final third after final testing and sign-off of systems by all parties involved. Applicant’s employees, sub-contractors, or equipment sellers may not apply to Rockwell Property Management for payment nor may they withhold work at any time.

Additional Considerations

As we have a policy of "buying local" whenever possible, special consideration will be given to companies in the Louisville area, assuming they meet all other RFP requirements. This project will require an electrical permit before work can begin, as well as electrical and fire inspections before the project is complete. All applicable requirements of local building and fire codes must be met. All respondents must be familiar with the provisions of the following.

Historic Landmark Building Ordinances The Fountain Square Building is a historic building and therefore certain cosmetic exceptions to codes are allowable, but others must be followed. International Fire Code Our city follows these strict regulations for fire alarm and suppression equipment. Kentucky Plumbing Code, NFPA Sprinkler Systems Code, NFPA National Electrical Code Any or all these codes may need to be considered for this project.

All contractors will be required to follow established national and local safety regulations during the course of this project. In their proposals, respondents must provide lists of fire alarm fire suppression equipment and security equipment they propose to install for this project. All equipment to be installed must be listed in proposals by respondents.
