MEMORANDUM
TO: Rick Koch, City Manager
FROM: Wayne Ogle, Public Works Director
DATE: 9 December 2009
SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT; KENAI COMMUNICATION CENTER ERGONOMIC
UPGRADE 2009
1991
The following sealed bids were received at City Hall on November 24, 2009 at 2PM for the subject
project:
This project includes procurement, assembly and installation of two intensive use 24/7 ergonomic sit
to -stand dispatch workstations and one securable server storage cabinet in the Kenai Police
Department Communications Center.
The apparent low bid is from Watson Furniture Group. However, our analysis of the Watson Furniture
Group bid indicates significant non conformance with the City's bid specification. Three specific
furniture items were required in the City's bid specification but not included in Watson Furniture
Group's bid:
1. Server storage cabinet.
2. Slat wall. Watson Furniture Group offered to provide a separate quote for this item.
3. Third table. Watson Furniture Group offered to provide a separate quote for this item.
Additionally, Watson Furniture Group did not provide material and color samples of their product line
with their bid offering as required by the City's bid specification. Watson Furniture Group did not
request clarification of any bid specification from the City prior to submitting their bid offering. Based
on this, I recommend the apparent low bid by Watson Furniture Group be considered non responsive
and not considered further by the City.
Our examination of the bid offering of Wright Line, LLC indicates they fully complied with the City's bid
specification.
I recommend City Council approve the award of this contract to Wright Line, LLC.
