Kimley»>Horn <br />Page 2 <br />will honor their bid and enter into a contract for the work. Without this signature, it is deemed <br />unresponsive. As a result, Indian River County notified Aerex Industries, Inc. on March 18, <br />2016, that their bid was non-responsive and ineligible for consideration <br />Based on the results of our review, Harn RO submitted the next lowest responsive, <br />responsible bid for the project. Kimley-Horn has worked with and is currently working with <br />Harn RO Systems, Inc. on several other projects, including three (3) current ongoing projects <br />Other than being the 2nd lowest bidder being nearly 27% over our estimate, we see no reason <br />Indian River County Utilities (IRCU) should not award the project base bid of $776,872.00 to <br />Harn RIO Systems, Inc. If additional funds are available, IRCU should consider awarding the <br />entire contract of $1,041,629.00 to Harn R/O Systems, Inc. in an effort to minimize <br />mobilization costs and help lower operating costs at the water plant. <br />Should you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact this.office at <br />(561) 845-0665. <br />Sincerely, <br />KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />Mark D.
