Title
Police Department, Main Pump Station, and Main Pump Station North Intake Building Fire Alarm System Upgrade Project
History
Funding was budgeted in FY2026 for fire alarm system upgrades at the Police Department (PD), Main Pump Station (MPS), and Main Pump Station North Intake Building (MPSNI). The existing fire alarm systems at these facilities do not meet current fire alarm standards nor ADA mass notification requirements as noted by recent inspections by both Village-contracted inspectors and the Orland Fire Prevention District.
The scope of work for theproject includes the replacement of all existing fire alarm devices and installation of a code-compliant mass notification system, smoke detectors, pull stations, carbon monoxide detectors, and Notification Appliance Control (NAC) Panels. Also included in the scope is all electrical wiring needed to complete the upgrades, building permit drawings, and fire system programming/testing.
Cooperative Purchasing / Contracting Programs
The Village utilizes a variety of cooperative programs (e.g. Omnia, Sourcewell, HGACBuy, State of Illinois Joint Purchase Program) to obtain proposals for goods and services. While not always the chosen approach, cooperative purchasing simplifies the procurement and service process for public agencies by allowing them to purchase through existing contracts negotiated by other public agencies. In other words, cooperative purchasing contracts have already gone through a competitive solicitation, evaluation process and been awarded to a supplier. The benefits of cooperative purchasing for public agencies include reduced procurement costs, greater time efficiency and the ability to obtain value-add and higher-quality products and services at industry-leading pricing.
For further reference, additional information regarding cooperative purchasing has been included as supporting documentation.
