No contractors responded to the <br />Mechanical Construction (Contract 3) component of the Work Package; therefore, the Basis of Award is the <br />Combined Construction (Contract 4) component. ICS, Inc. provided the lowest responsive bid for Combined <br />Construction. See attached bid opening summary for details. <br />ICS’s bid for Combined Construction is approximately 9% higher than the Engineer’s Opinion of Probable <br />Cost. However, the bid appears to be complete and consistent with the required work, and is within an <br />acceptable range of the Engineer’s estimate. Therefore, we feel it is appropriate for the Board to approve <br />this award. <br />Contact me at 208-771-1686 or tyler.smith@ch2m.com if you have any questions regarding this <br />recommendation. <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />Tyler Smith, P.E. <br />Construction Manager <br />CH2M HILL <br />Owner’s Representative <br /> <br /> <br />c: Bruce Spiller/CH2M HILL <br />Keith Berndt/Cass County <br />Heather Worden/Cass County <br /> <br />Mark Bittner/City of Fargo <br />April Walker/City of Fargo <br />Gregg Thielman/HMG <br /> <br />479407.B3.33.23.01 LTR-DIVAUTH-WP-42A.1-A.3-RECOMMENDATIONOFAWARD-20141113.DOCX
