Attached to this letter please find the Certified Bid Tabulation form for all rebid <br />project bids. <br /> <br />Based on our review of the submitted quote the following are our comments: <br /> <br />1. Robert Henry Corporation had a slightly lower bid tabulation than the submitted bid form. This total was <br />$5.17 lower, and it is believed this is due to rounding individual line items to the nearest whole dollar <br />amount. The $5.17 difference does not create a change in the lowest bid total. <br />2. The bid total for Milestone Contractors North totaled correctly. <br />3. Rieth-Riley had a Base Bid Total of $322,803.41, which totaled correctly and was the lowest submitted <br />base bid. <br /> <br />Therefore, it is our engineering recommendation that the City of South Bend should confirm the bid <br />numbers and required bonds and submittals with Rieth-Riley and approve the bid of and award <br />Ignition Park: EV Charging Park Rebid (120-044R) to Rieth-Riley Construction Co. Inc., for the base <br />bid contract amount of $322,803.41. It is our recommendation that each of the three (3) proposed <br />alternates shall be selected. This would bring the total project cost to $398,617.41. <br /> <br />Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Should you have any questions or concerns please <br />contact me at (574) 232-4388 or by email at cchockley@jpr1source.com. <br /> <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Chris Chockley <br />Landscape Architect, PLA <br />enclosures <br /> H:\2020 Projects\2020-0197\Bidding\Project 120-044 R_Rebid Recommendation Letter.docx
