County awards highway materials rebid for Kev Kevlar fiber edition to both bidders
Summary
After receiving two proposals, county staff recommended and the commission approved awarding the rebid for highway materials and supplies for the Kev Kevlar fiber edition to both vendors; districts will choose the low bidder for each job based on availability, quantities and transport costs.
County staff presented a recommendation to award the rebid for highway materials and supplies for the Kev Kevlar fiber edition to both submitting vendors, and the Board of County Commissioners approved the recommendation. The recommendation noted two proposals were received and said final vendor selection for individual jobs will depend on availability, quantities and transportation costs.
The recommendation was presented during the meeting's consent and procurement discussion. A staff representative told the commission, “we received 2 proposals back, and based upon final evaluation of the bids received and feedback from our end users, we are recommending award to all, so both vendors.” The staff representative also said pricing “will be dependent upon availability, quantities, and transportation cost” and that districts will determine which vendor is lowest for each job.
Commissioners moved and seconded a motion to accept the purchasing agent's recommendation and voted to approve it. No dollar amounts, vendor names, or contract durations were specified in the presentation. The staff speaker said bid net specifications and pricing would be applied to job-by-job awards rather than a single fixed contract.
The approval places responsibility on district offices to select the low bidder for individual highway work orders based on the district's needs and the vendors' availability. The record does not show any contested debate or amendments to the recommendation.
