Resolution |
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this resolution is for the City of Wilmington to enter a three (3) year contract with Otis Elevator, with the option to extend the contract for two (2) additional one (1) year periods, for elevator maintenance services at three (3) locations:
• The Skyline Center, 929 N. Front St.
• Skyline Parking Deck, 155 N. Brunswick St.
• United Bank Building, 115 N. 3rd St.
BACKGROUND:
City staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on April 25, 2025, for a Comprehensive Elevator Maintenance Program. Staff received two responses to the RFP from Otis Elevator and Thyssenkrupp Elevator.
Following a thorough evaluation process, Otis Elevator received the highest overall evaluation score, submitted the lowest cost proposal and has a long-standing history of performance with the Skyline Center and Skyline Parking Deck. The twelve (12) elevators located at the Skyline properties are manufactured by Otis. Based on these factors, Otis was determined to be the most qualified vendor to provide maintenance and repair services.

BUDGET IMPACT:
The yearly estimated cost is $80,000 and is included in Skyline Center’s Repair and Maintenance Division budget, contingent upon the approval of the FY26 budget. This will be a three-year contract total of $240,000, with the option to extend the contract for two (2) additional one (1) year periods.
