WORK BY OTHERS & CLARIFICATIONS
In conjunction with this wheelchair lift project, the following work is required and shall be the sole responsibility of the building ownership if not already existing. GMS Elevator Services, Inc. (GMSEI) shall not be responsible for the completion, coordination, or verification of this work:
1.Wall/Floor Surface Modifications: Any necessary cutting, patching, covering and painting of wall/floor surfaces.
2.Phone Line Installation: Installation of a dedicated phone line to the wheelchair lift or designated location.
3.Electrical Upgrades: Provide and install all new applicable electrical and power requirements including main disconnect and AC power as required to accommodate the installation. Refer to Battery Lowering section below for additional details.
4.Fire Code Compliance: If a sprinkler is present in the overhead of the elevator shaft, installation of a Shunt Trip (if not already installed) may be required by the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) Fire Authority.
5.Fire Control System Modernization: Repair or modernization of the building’s fire control system to ensure compliance with applicable codes.
6.Lighting and Power Supply: Installation of all new applicable power and lighting requirements as needed for a proper installation.
7.Material Storage: Provision of a dry, secure, and safe area for the storage of elevator materials related to this project.
Failure to complete the above-listed work in a timely manner may result in project delays and additional costs, for which GMSEI shall not be held liable.
CLARIFICATIONS
The wheelchair lift will be installed as detailed specifically in this proposal only. Any device not explicitly mentioned or contained herein is excluded.
Should there be any presence of Asbestos, PCBs or any other contamination, the disposal of such shall be the responsibility of the Owner/Purchaser, not GMSEI.
All work shall be performed during GMSEI’s normal business hours and regular working days. Permits & Inspections: Upon completion of the outlined work, GMSEI will arrange, hold, and pay for DOSH inspections. Any work directly related to this proposal that is cited by the Elevator Inspector will be corrected.
However, due to the DOSH Elevator Unit’s adoption of the ASME A17.1-2004 elevator code, additional inspector- mandated requirements may arise. Such requirements will be quoted separately. Proposal Validity: This proposal is valid for 30 days and is subject to change at any time for any reason.
Fire Life Safety System Completion:
As part of this process, it may be necessary to upgrade your fire life safety system to ensure compatibility with the new equipment. Depending on the specifications of your existing fire life safety system, it may either be compatible with the proposed changes or require modifications. The Owner/Purchaser is responsible for consulting with their current fire life safety vendor to determine the required upgrades.
It is essential that all necessary fire life safety upgrades be completed prior to the finalization of the project. The California State Elevator Division will conduct an inspection before the elevator is returned to service, and the fire life safety system will be the first component evaluated during this inspection.
In order to proceed with final equipment production, the Owner/Purchaser must confirm the completion of all required fire life safety work and provide an estimated completion date to GMS Elevator Services, Inc. Any delay in the completion of the fire life safety upgrades may result in project delays and potential additional costs.
Battery Lowering & Fire Recall Operation (ASME A17.1-2004 Elevator Code):
Where applicable, the following relays are required for proper functionality (additional relays may be required depending on the type of unit being installed):
1.F.R.A. - Bottom floor hall 1st floor relay sends the elevator to an alternate floor.
2.F.R.S. - Top floor hall detector relay sends the elevator to the main floor.
3.H.F.1. - Elevator machine room smoke detector triggers the flashing fire hat and sends the elevator to an alternate floor. (The elevator controller will activate the flashing fire hat.)
4.H.F.2. - Elevator overhead smoke detector (if a sprinkler is present) triggers the flashing fire hat and sends the elevator to the main floor.
5.Battery Lowering Relay: Monitors the heat detector and connects in series with the auxiliary contact in the disconnect switch. This may require a replacement of the disconnect switch.
All requirements listed above must be completed by the Owner/Purchaser in accordance with all applicable regulations.
GMSEI shall not be responsible for any delays or additional costs resulting from non-compliance or failure to complete these requirements.
MODERNIZATION SCHEDULE
1.Equipment Lead Time: Lead time on equipment is approximately 20-24 weeks from the date of contract acceptance. GMS Elevator Services, Inc. (GMSEI) shall not be responsible for any delays due to vendor supply chain issues, factory production schedules, or other circumstances beyond its control.
2.Project Duration: The anticipated duration is approximately two (2) weeks per lift, contingent upon the timely completion of related contractor work, site access availability, and the scheduling of the required State Elevator Division Inspection. Any delays caused by the Owner/Purchaser or third parties may result in additional costs and extended timelines.
3.Work Hours and Access: All work shall be completed during the regular working hours of the elevator trade.
GMSEI must have uninterrupted access to and exclusive use of the lift while work is in progress. Any interruptions or access restrictions imposed by the Owner/Purchaser may result in additional charges and delays.
4.Material Procurement and Storage: GMSEI will make all reasonable efforts to procure materials and fulfill orders in a timely manner. However, no material orders will be placed until GMSEI receives written confirmation from the Owner/Purchaser, including a scheduled completion date for all Fire Life Safety upgrade items. If materials are ordered and the jobsite is not ready, the Owner/Purchaser shall be responsible for accepting delivery and arranging for storage of the equipment. If onsite storage is not available, the Owner/Purchaser shall remain liable for payment of the equipment invoice along with a monthly offsite storage fee, the amount of which shall be determined by GMSEI. Under no circumstances shall GMSEI be held responsible for delays or additional costs resulting from site readiness issues outside its control.
5. Please note that installation start dates are subject to workforce availability and may not correspond with the timeframes outlined above. GMS will provide an estimated start date based on the actual date of proposal acceptance; however, this date is not guaranteed and remains subject to change.
