„ F _ <br /> Page 2 <br /> The project specifications were prepared by the Engineering Division. The project was <br /> advertised on February 19, 2003 and bids were opened on March 6, 2003. The results of the <br /> letting are as follows (bid tabulation attached): , <br /> Compared to <br /> Engineer's Est. � <br /> Bidder Bid Price Over ^Under� i, <br /> Engineer's Estimate $104,390.00 ----- ', <br /> Bodine Services, Inc. $ 52,515.00 (49.69%) �, <br /> Entler Excavating Co., Inc. $ 84,275.00 ( 19.27%) ! <br /> Barr&Robison $ 96,040.00 ( 8.00%) <br /> Burdick Plumbing& <br /> Heating Co., Inc. $ 99,755.00 (4.44%) <br /> Siciliano, Inc. $116,770.62 11.86% <br /> The low bid submitted by Bodine Services, which is significantly below the engineer's estimate, <br /> and that of the next low bidder was reviewed by City staff. It was determined that primary <br /> differences between the engineer's estimate and the next low bidder was associated with <br /> Bodine's unit prices for 5 bid items. These included pavement patching, manhole construction, <br /> traffic control and cost for extra depth excavation. The unit prices are very favorable to the City <br /> and are prices that Bodine will have to do the work for. In addition, the difference is partially <br /> attributed to Bodine's desire, at this time of the year, to obtain work. Bodine has done this type <br /> of work before to the satisfaction of City staff and for that reason it is being recommended that <br /> the award of a contract be made to Bodine Services, Inc. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There are no known objections to this resolution <br /> and bid award. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Matt Newell, City Engineer, at 424-2747 <br /> The City Engineer, Matt Newell, will be in attendance at the City Council meeting to answer any <br /> questions of the Council on this item. <br />
