It was determined after extensive review by <br />Engineering and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion that good faith efforts were met by all contractors <br />that submitted bids. Award to the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder will not meet the MBE goal, but <br />good faith efforts were met. Limited scope of work for MBE and WBE companies for this project is a <br />challenge. WBE well exceeds the goal due to the equipment costs for the project are nearly half of the <br />project cost. The lowest price was provided which is both within the Division of Utilities project budget and <br />lower than the Engineer’s Estimate. <br /> <br />The Division of Engineering, Division of Utilities and Office of Diversity and Inclusion agree that the lowest <br />bidder, Selge Construction Company, Inc., met good faith efforts based on our audit of the documentation <br />and correspondence with MBE and WBE companies during quote review. The Division of Engineering <br />recommends the award of the the contract for Project No. 120-017 CSO 18 Backwater Valve <br />Replacement to Selge Construction Company, Inc. for the Total Base Bid of $124,980.00. <br /> <br />Funding: Sewage Works Building Repair and Maintenance Account 641-06-605-514-439001. <br /> <br />For questions regarding the subject agenda request, contact Jacob M.
