They did not include the required application form, nor the supporting documentation. Dore & Associates also neglected to meet either the MBE (1.4%) or WBE (4.7%) goals. The low bid must be rejected as non -responsive. The second low bid from The MRD Group is able to meet the requirements of the Responsible Bidder Ordinance and did meet both the MBE and WBE goals. They neglected to include a signed copy of Addendum 2 in their bid package but were able to provide a signed copy upon request. It is the opinion of the City that this exclusion did not create any unfair advantage. The second low bid from MRD Group is complete and responsive.
