The County of Los Angeles Fire Department is seeking services for the maintenance and testing of a Purple K Dry Chemical fire suppression system located at Fire Station 127 (F127).

The unit is mounted in the rear of F127, and the vendor must either transport the fire apparatus to their facility for testing or unbolt it for transport back to their shop. All services must comply with County requirements, and if equipment is used, it must be the latest model and not previously used as a demonstrator.
