Alicia Czarnecki From: Sue Ellen Doudrick Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2017 3:16 PM To: Linda Martin Cc: Kara Boyles; Alicia Czarnecki Subject: FW: Downtown Bridge Striping Hi Linda, Due to the questions that arose during the review of the bids, I reached out to the only bidder on Downtown Bridge Striping —Greg Lowe at The Airmarking. Their bid did not include Maintenance of Traffic and Mobilization and Demobilization on their base bid. Greg confirms below that these two line items are covered in their Alternate 2 (Addendum 2 bid). The Alternate 2 bid is correct. However, there was no bid received for Alternate 1 as this contractor (again the only contractor who bid on the project) cannot perform Thermopaint striping and markings — which are the work items included in Alternate 1. The Engineering Division wishes to proceed with awarding the Base Bid + Alternate 2 (Addendum 2), which yields a total project cost of $72,500.20. This is in line with what we estimated. The total listed on the submittal was for: Base Bid +Alternate 2 (Addendum 1) +Alternate 2 (Addendum 2) $116k Please advise as this project is planned to be awarded on 12/21. Thank you, Sue Ellen From: Greg Lowe [mailto:greg@airmarking.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2017 2:31 PM To: Sue Ellen Doudrick <sdoudric@southbendin.gov> Subject: Downtown Bridge Striping Sue Ellen - On the base bid package the thermopaint items, we do not use that type of material so we included the maintenance of traffic and mob/demob on alternate 2, which is the hot thermoplastic, which is the product used by Airmarking. The alternate 2 was sent out later which stated either/or on the product used. This is why the maintenance of traffic and mob/demob was used on that portion of the proposal. If you feel you need more information or have additional questions let me know. Thank you - Greg Lowe President I The Airmarking Co., Inc.
