INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
DIVISION OF ENGINEERING
TO: Members of the Board of Public Works
Clara McDaniels, Assistant City Attorney Public Works
FROM: Sue Ellen Doudrick, P.E., Assistant City Engineer
SUBJECT: Project No. 117-068 Prairie Avenue Water Main Loop
DATE: December 6, 2021
On November 9, 2021, the Board of Public Works opened and read bids of the above project. A
list of the bids received and amounts are listed below and detailed bid tabulation is attached:
Bidder Base Bid Total
Mandatory Alternate
Base Bid Deduct Total(1)
1. HRP Construction $1,714,000.00 $1,683,000.00
$1,671,500.00 (2)
2. Selge Construction $1,699,481.01 $1,689,281.01
3. Woodruff & Sons $2,117,158.48 $1,944,208.30
Notes:
1. The lowest bid was for the Mandatory Alternate Base Bid which replaces of 1,120 linear feet of trenching
installation of water main with directionally drilled (trenchless technology) water main installation.
2. HRP’s bid for the mandatory alternate base bid did not include a unit price for line item #15 “Recycled
Concrete for Pavement Sub-base, No 53”. This unit price was provided in the Base Bid and therefore was used
to fill in Line Item #15, making the new total for the Mandatory Alternate Base Bid $1,671,500.00.
The Division of Engineering recommends the award of the contract for Project No. 118-063
Prairie Avenue Water Main Loop to the lowest, responsive, responsible, pre-qualified bidder,
HRP Construction at the bid price of $1,671,500.00 contract by unit prices.
The project will be funded using Water Works Capital and Southside TIF. The Purchase Requisition
is PR-00012245. The award recommendation is subject to Water Capital 4th Quarter Appropriation;
related to the reimbursement of the funds from the Pokagon Band.
For questions regarding the above recommendation or the subject project, contact Sue Ellen

Re: Prairie Avenue Water Main Loop

Bid Review
Dear Sue Ellen:
We have reviewed the bids received on November 9, 2021 for the Prairie Avenue Water Main Loop (Project
No. 117-068) and offer the following comments for your review and approval.
As shown on the attached certified bid tabulation, three (3) bids were received from the following contractors:
HRP Construction Inc. (HRP), Selge Construction Co., Inc. (Selge) and Woodruff & Sons, Incorporated. The
base bid amounts ranged from $1,699,481.01 to 2,117,158.48. The apparent low bidder on the base bid
was Selge with a base bid amount of $1,699,481.01. This bid is below the engineer’s estimate of
$1,802,090.00.
The project also included one mandatory alternate bid for the use of horizontal directional drilling for the water
main within SR-23 in lieu of the base bid method of open cut installation. The mandatory alternate bid is the
net difference from the base bid, and if accepted, it shall be combined with the base bid to determine the low
bidder on the project. The “as-read” mandatory alternate bid amounts from Selge, HRP, and Woodruff &
Sons were ($10,200.00), ($31,000.00), and ($172,950.18) respectively. An omission was noted on HRP’s
alternate bid for the unit price for Item 15 (Recycled Concrete for Pavement Sub-base, No. 53) which when
included reduced the as-read amount by ($11,500) for a total deduction for the mandatory alternate of
($42,500.00). If the mandatory alternate is accepted, HRP would be the low bidder based on the combination
of the base bid and the mandatory alternate. The omission on HRP’s alternate bid would not affect the
determination of the low bidder if the mandatory alternate is accepted, since either the “as-read” amount or
the corrected amount would still result in HRP being the low bidder. A summary table of the bid results is as
follows:
Bidder Base Bid Mand. Alt. Bid Combined
HRP "As-Read" $1,714,000.00 ($31,000.00) $1,683,000.00
HRP Corrected $1,714,000.00 ($42,500.00) $1,671,500.00
Selge $1,699,481.01 ($10,200.00) $1,689,281.01
Woodruff & Sons $2,117,158.48 ($172,950.18) $1,944,208.30

Hi Laura,
Please see attached Bid Award request which is recommended subject to 4th Quarter Appropriation
of Water Capital dollars to support the project. Mtg for appropriations is 12/13. I recommend we
include this on the 12/14 agenda and if on 12/13 the monies are not appropriated then we hold that
agenda item and not award.
Thanks,

Thanks for that clarification, Clara. I didn't realize the agenda review meetings weren't happening at
this point. One clarification from my end, in turn: I think my third bullet point below still stands, even
without an agenda review session. In other words, I don't think there is a scenario in which the bid
award would be made subject to Council's Q4 appropriation, given the order of the meetings. It will
be known on the evening of 12/13 whether the Q4 appropriation was approved. If it is not approved,
then I think the bid award would not be made at all on 12/14. Is that what would be expressed in the
memo you have in mind?

I just wanted to clarify that BPW agenda review meetings were cancelled starting in March of 2020.
They will resume on January 6, 2022 in advance of the January 11th board meeting. However, agenda
materials are placed in the board members’ folder in plenty of time for them to ask questions prior to
the board meeting. A memo can accompany the bid award request explaining award is subject to
Council’s appropriation.

@Sue Ellen Doudrick: Okay. If a week's time makes a difference in this case, here's what I propose:
Add the bid award to the 12/14 agenda so that it can be discussed at Thursday's agenda review
session.
Let the BPW know that it was added to the agenda to be discussed on Thursday but that it
remains subject to Council's appropriation on Monday and completion of DFO approvals prior
to Tuesday's meeting.
If DFO approvals aren't done by the time of the BPW meeting -- because Council declined to
approve the appropriation or for any other reason -- remove the item from the 12/14 agenda.
If that makes sense to everyone, including @Laura Hensley, let's proceed in that way, and I'll circle
back to this group to let you know what happens with Council. If this approach doesn't work from
anyone's perspective, let me know. Thanks!
Best,
Ben

Hi Ben,
Yes, there is urgency to get this on the 12/14 agenda due to timeline commitments to the Pokagon
Band and easement timeline restrictions during construction. The project amount has been updated,
and I’m waiting to hear back from Katy.
Thanks,

To summarize the process that's called for: Under the sealed bidding procedure spelled out
in Procurement Policy Supplement 509, I believe this project is at step 14 presently (see below). In
order for the bid award to go on the BPW agenda, Engineering should communicate with Katy Rajski
and James Clay to complete steps 14, 15, and 16. When the requisition reaches step 17, in addition to
the other reviewers in that step reviewing and approving the requisition for their purposes, Dan or I
will advance the requisition to Laura (step 18) if the Council approved the additional appropriation in
a sufficient amount and that appropriation has been recorded in DFO's budget and project modules
so that the requisition doesn't fail a budget check.
The Council will vote on the additional appropriation requests on 12/13, which would allow for time
to complete the above steps by the 12/16 deadline to get on the 12/21 BPW agenda. Would that
suffice, or is there critical urgency to getting on the 12/14 BPW agenda rather than the 12/21 BPW
agenda?

This is Water Capital 4th Quarter Appropriation; related to the reimbursement from the Pokagon
Band.
Not RDC.
The award should be made subject to the Q4 appropriation.

Can I get a quick overview of what this project is, what is the dollar amount requested and in what TIF
area?
Is this part of the old rates agreement, @Kara Boyles?

Hi Sue Ellen,
There are instances that we will start a PR as a request to advertise, contingent upon RDC approval,
but we historically have not awarded until RDC has approved the budget. I am not comfortable
moving forward on that without the ok from Santi or the Controller’s Office. Copying them to get their
thoughts.
If they do say we can go ahead and put this on the 12/14 agenda, we will need to have Laura note
that the award is contingent upon RDC approval or wait to put it on the agenda until after the 12/9
RDC meeting.
Thank you,
From: Sue Ellen Doudrick <sdoudric@southbendin.gov>

Hi Amanda,
I am submitting an agenda request to award the Prairie Avenue Water Main project, which exceeds
the amount allocated in the PR in DFO. In the next RDC meeting, there is a plan to allocate $500k to
the project, but I was hoping you could help me with getting this approved at the next BPW meeting
on 12/14? I’m not sure if there is any documentation or any actions in DFO that you can provide to
