INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS <br />DIVISION OF ENGINEERING <br />TO: Theresa Heffner, Clerk <br />Board of Public Works <br />FROM: Becca Plantz, Senior Project Engineer <br />SUBJECT: Award Project No. 123-069A <br />2024 Lead Service Line and Main Replacements — West Zone <br />DATE: May 28, 2024 <br />On May 14, 2024, the Board of Public Works opened and read bids for the above project. I have <br />reviewed them and found them correct. <br />The bidders are summarized as follows: <br />Bidder <br />Division A <br />Division B <br />Alternate 1A <br />Total <br />A+B+1 A <br />Selge <br />Construction Co., <br />$1,001,981.75 <br />$267,354.50 <br />$452,613.50 <br />$1,721,949.75 <br />Inc. <br />HRP Construction, <br />$1,254,159.00 <br />$215,841.00 <br />$543,000.00 <br />2,013,000.00 <br />Inc. <br />Indiana Finance Authority Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Forms were required due to the <br />state funding, and goals were set at: <br />MBE Goal: 7% <br />WBE Goal: 5% <br />HRP did not meet the goals and completed the good faith efforts on City of South Bend MWBE <br />forms rather than the IFA DBE Good Faith Effort forms. The IFA DBE documents do not have a <br />location to report percent or total utilization, although, Selge showed evidence of good faith <br />efforts on the IFA DBE Good Faith Effort forms and related attachments reporting <br />correspondence. <br />All Indiana Finance Authority Front End Documentation provided prior to open is executed and <br />included in bids, except for HRP completing their MWBE utilization on the City forms. After bids <br />were opened, it was found that FEDC Attachment L — Telecom Contract Provisions, Attachment <br />M — BABA Contract Provision, and Attachment N — BABA Certification Form needed to be <br />included as part of the contract documents. With this, Selge Construction Co., Inc. was asked to <br />return Attachment N — BABA Certification as a requirement for the State Revolving Fund. <br />I recommend award of a contract, including the alternate, for 2024 Lead Service Line and Main <br />Replacements — West Zone to the lowest responsive responsible bidder, Selge Construction <br />Co., Inc. in the amount of $1,721,949.75. <br />
