SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT; Kenai Recreation Center Gym Floor
Replacement 2010
The replacement of the Kenai Recreation Center Gym Floor was part of the FY 2011 Budget.
The replacement recommendation was based on the inspection of the existing 7,200 SF gym
floor and the inability to fix the "dead spots The dead spots are due to the inconsistent
elevations of the concrete below the gym floor. Typical gym flooring systems have a flatness
requirement of a 1/8" in a 10' radius.
The solution for the gym floor to have no "dead spots" is installation of a Sportwood over Bio-
Channel system. The Bio- Channel system is manufactured by Robbins and is the industry's first
shimmable anchored resilient sleeper, designed to counteract the effects of uneven concrete.
This system is utilized as a standard by the Anchorage School District and the Kenai Peninsula
Borough School District, due to the failure of other wood flooring systems.
Alaskan Industries Inc. is the Alaska distributer of Robins flooring systems. Robbins flooring
systems are installed by a network of Authorized Contractor Dealers trained in the proper
methods and practices, enabling the no "dead spot" guarantee of the system.
A local wood flooring contractor was contacted about alternative systems that would meet the
same requirements, as they are not a certified Robbins flooring installer, however, they did not
respond the requests for information or provide a cost for the alternative system. Apparently
these contractors mostly specialize in gym floor refinishing and smaller wood floor installation.
Local general contractors were contacted to identify previous bidders for gym flooring on Alaska
projects that included gym floor installations. Typically two bids were received one from Alaska
and one from Washington State. The bids from Alaska were from Alaskan Industries, Inc.
Utilizing this limited solicitation process will allow for the floor to be installed prior to the beginning
of Basket Ball season (in late November) as well as to conserve funds in attempting to advertise
to a very limited number of qualified suppliers.
The alternative to this limited solicitation approach is for a formal procurement process, resulting
in a late March 2011 construction, following the close of the 2010 2011 Basket Ball season.
Attached is Resolution 2010 -56 recommending award of the contract to Alaska Industries, Inc for
the total cost of $122,000 and includes removal and installation of the bleachers.
