May 1, 2023 <br />City of South Bend <br />Department of Public Works <br />227 West Jefferson Boulevard, Suite 1300 N <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Attention: Mrs. Leslie Biek, Project Engineer <br />RE: PROJECT 122-013R – REVIEW OF BIDS <br />Dear Mrs. Biek: <br />JPR has reviewed the Itemized Proposal of the single Bidder on the South Bend 2022 Lasalle Avenue <br />Streetscape Improvements – rebid project. Attached to this letter please find the Certified Bid Tabulation <br />form for the itemized project bids. <br />Based on our review of the submitted quote the following are our comments: <br />1. The bid total for Milestone Contractors totaled correctly for the Base Bid. <br />2.As well, the bid total for Milestone Contractors totaled correctly for the Alternate Deduct. <br />3.All necessary attachments were included with Milestone Contractors submission. <br />Based on the above information, and being the only contractor, Milestone Contractors did submit the lowest <br />responsive bid for the Lasalle Avenue Streetscape Improvement Project. <br />Therefore, it is our engineering recommendation that the City of South Bend shall confirm the bid <br />of Milestone Contractors and approve and award the Base Bid and not the Alternate Deduct (122- <br />013R) to Milestone Contractors, for the bid contract amount of $5,655,360.32. <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 rheiden@jpr1source.com. <br />Sincerely, <br />Robert Heiden <br />Project Manager, Graduate Landscape Architect <br />enclosures <br />H:\2021 Projects\2021-0489\07_Bidding\\Bid Tabulation\Project 122-013R_Recommendation Letter.docx
