Five (5) bids were received ranging in dollar value from $4,406,749.09 to <br />$7,998,381.51. The target budget established by the City was approximately $7,000,000. <br />The low bid was determined to be non "responsible and responsive" due to technical deficiencies and <br />bid content, as confirmed by City legal counsel. The second bid in the amount of $5,858,477.87 was <br />reviewed for technical conformance to the bidding documents, references were verified, previous <br />work experience confirmed, and a post bid interview conducted. <br />Therefore, it is recommended that The Stout Group, Inc. be selected to execute the project at the <br />aforementioned contract amount and that contract negotiations commence immediately with a <br />proposed construction commencement of November 1, 2021. The project duration is anticipated to <br />require eighteen (18) months for completion. <br />FUNDING SOURCE: <br />Funds have been appropriated in account no. 300-5-5410-465000-20003. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Resolution <br />Item Number: 10.K <br />
