Recommendation for Award
Pvlarch 25, 2009
On March 24, 2009 at 2:00 PIS bids were received for the construction of the subject project.
Six bidders submitted bids and are listed as follows:
1. peninsula Construction Inc. $220,327.50
2. Alaska Road Builders Inc. $231,356.00
3. Foster Construetion Inc. $244,336.00
4. North Star Paving $244,714.30
5. G~II Construction $249,696.32
6. Wolverine Supply Inc. $326,648.00
7. Engineers Estimate $160,868.50
Not responsive, no Bid Bond
Corrected to $249,693.32
While the first five kidders are grouped fairly closely a review oftheir krd items show many of
their unit bid prates are well above average unit costs we have received on recent projects. TYris
may be due to several reasons including the smaller projects requiring a higher overhead markup,
the bidding climate escalating prices on these smaliee projects with many larger projects coming
otu' in the next few months, and/or the Larger contractors expecting bids from more of the smaller
area contractor which did not occur.
`plre Engineers Estimate contained a entry error on the Seeding Item i.e. $60.00 per thousand
when it was intended to be $600.00 per thousand and did not carry Mobilization and
Demobilization mark up on items which usually suns 8 to 10% of construction Costs. These
corrections would have increased the Engineers Estimate to $ ] 83,457.00 still 17°la below the low
bidder.
As the bidders, though high, are grouped competitively and a revr'ew afthe Bid Uocmnents and
unit costs da not indicate any issues that would increase construction costs I would recommend
award of the project to Peninsula Construction Inc. in the amount of $ 220,327.50.
