The District will evaluate proposed systems/fixtures and determine the mostbeneficial, “BEST VALUE” option. The District will generate a “Total Cost of Ownership” model that considersfirst capital costs, energy savings over the life of the fixtures, warranty periods and extended warranty options,and the capability of the firms to deliver and integrate high quality solutions with least impact to students andstaff.
