Purchasing prepared a bid summary of the nine bids (See Attachment 1). Staff also prepared a detailed <br /> bid tabulation (See Attachment 2). Purchasing also sent a "Request for Review" memo to the staff dated <br /> December 3, 2014 that included required information in preparing a Recommendation for Award (See <br /> Attachment 3). That memo was used in preparing this agenda item. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> Before the project was publicly bid staff prepared a cost estimate for the work that totaled $411,441.20 <br /> for labor and materials (See Attachment 4). The low bid of $380,975.00 is $30,466.20 lower than the <br /> estimated amount. Therefore, staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners award Bid No. <br /> 2015017 to Tri-Sure Corporation of Auburndale, Florida in the amount of$380,975.00 and requests that <br /> the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached sample agreement (See Attachment 5) and <br /> authorize the Chairman to execute said agreement after receipt and approval of the required Public <br /> Construction Bond and certificate of insurance and after the County Attorney has approved the <br /> agreement as to form and legal sufficiency. This recommendation to award is also based on staff's first- <br /> hand knowledge of Tri-Sure's past performance with similar construction in Indian River County. This <br /> includes numerous water assessment projects in the City of Sebastian as well as other large utility <br /> construction projects in other areas of the county. <br /> FUNDING: <br /> Funding for this project is derived from the capital fund. The capital fund revenues are generated from <br /> impact fees. Furthermore, growth has created the need for expansion or construction of the facilities and <br /> that new growth will benefit from the expansion or construction of the facilities. <br /> ACCOUNT NAME ACCOUNT NUMBER AMOUNT <br /> VLE 107th Ave. 12" Water Main Extension 472-169000-14507 $380,975.00 <br /> ATTACHMENT(s): <br /> 1.
