Ms. Nakagawa - For the brand you are currently using, do they not have an option or commercial type <br />treadmill? <br />Mr. Hara - They do. <br />Mr. Chadwick - Freetnotion does not have a repair person here and the only repair person we are able to <br />get in touch with is not very trustworthy. <br />Mr. Sewake - Does the repair person on the island service the HPD treadmills? <br />Mr. Hara - Not sure. <br />Ms. Kekai - Is there any one thing you can point out that would enhance job performance on this specific <br />machine? <br />Mr, Hara - Unfortunately, no. <br />Ms. Sako - Other than a gym, I can't think of any place that would get as much use as your treadmills. <br />Ms. Kekai - Are there stats on safety? How many injuries have happened on different treadmills? <br />Mr. Hara - I have not done an investigation, only aware of Peloton. <br />Ms. Sako - Does this equipment have a heart rate monitor? <br />Ms. Kekai and Mr. Chadwick - Most all have monitors on them. <br />Mr. Chadwick - There's no denying our department need treadmills but don't think we need this specific <br />brand. We're here because we were told to go through the Standardization Committee. <br />Ms. Sako - Yes if you want to be consistent. Police has it and later if we had to cannibalize for parts, it's <br />always nice when another department has the same thing and if you want all twenty-two treadmills to be <br />the same. <br />Mr. Chadwick - Since WFI has restarted the Fit to Thrive fitness program, we aspire to have individuals <br />that are able to evaluate our personnel. One way to accomplish doing the program and having the same <br />equipment model is doing an estimated V02 Max and provide an instruction sheet that follows personnel <br />around regardless of what station they're located. <br />Mr. Nagata - How's the availability or lead time for these treadmills? With Police and the UFC Gym <br />wanting these treadmills, if approved to standardize and place the order, how long would you be waiting? <br />Mr. Hara - We're only purchasing two per year. Would guess the wait time would be the same versus any <br />other model. <br />Ms. Nakagawa - What we could do when we issue a solicitation is say the Fire department is looking to <br />purchase up to X # of treadmills over time and we can renew the contract and continue to buy that model, <br />but if you're doing two a year and you need twenty-two, we'll end up looking at another model, doesn't <br />make any sense. Even if it's a five year or a one and four option years to buy treadmills then you'll get the <br />consistency and probably change in five years. It's a hard sell, there's no doubt you need it. There are so <br />
