Recommended Award - Gateway Blvd.
A bid opening was held on April 15, 1999 for the Improvements of Gateway Blvd.
Construction Project. There were three bidders for the project, and their bids were as
follows:
Golden Eagle Engineering Contractors
Pompano Beach, FL
$1,933,121.55
Ranger Constmctior~Co~
West Palm Beach, FL
$2,394,371.55
Smith and Co., Inc.
Weston, FL
$1,838,924.86
Each bidder submitted the necessary bonding and bid documentation, and each
appeared to be qualified to conduct the project.
A background check was done on the apparent low bidder, Smith and Co. A list of '-
projects completed was required by the bid documents and was submitted by the
bidder. The project list was impressive in its size, with a significant amount of work
being conducted in Palm Beach County. This project list has been attached for your
review.
A letter is attached, for your review, from the Consultant for the design of this
project, Post Buckley, Schuh, and Jernigan. The letter recommends Smith and
Company for the award of the contract.
A conversation was conducted with Don Zimmerman of Palm Beach County
Construction Inspection Departm. ent. He indicated that Smith and Company has
worked on many County projects,' and has recently been awarded a new contract. He
was not aware of any problems, on county projects, in Working with this contractor.
He stated that the contractor did quality work,
and followed contractual requirements during
April 22, 1999
the projects. He further indicated that Smith and Company was a large and reputable
contractor, and would not foresee any problems wi th them providing quality
workmanship on the Gateway Project.
A conversation was conducted about the Contractor with the inspector for the Abacoa
construction in Jupiter. It is reported that Smith and Co. did a very good job on the
Frederick Small Roadway Project.
The documents submitted with the bids were reviewed. The information indicated
that Smith and Co. should be in financially sound condition, and have relatively
minor legal claims against them, or on their behalf.
It is recommended, therefore, that the Contract for Roadway Improvements for
Gateway Boulevard be awarded to the apparent low bidder - Smith and Company of
Weston, Florida, for a sum of $1,838,924.86.
The funding for the project will be in the form of reimbursement through an
Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement with Palm Beach County for an amount of
$2,000,000. At present, the Interlocal Agreement guarantees the City a
reimbursement of $750,000. The Amendment, upon being executed by the City, will
be passed on to the County Commission for final approval.
