Committee accepts lowest qualified bid for County Resurfacing No. 2; staff recommends approval
Summary
The committee accepted the lowest qualified bidder for the Kane County Resurfacing No. 2 project and recommended award to Curran for $4,634,773 after compliance review; staff said the bid meets purchasing ordinance requirements and recommended approval.
Kane County staff reported that three bids were opened for the countywide Resurfacing No. 2 project and that the lowest qualified bid was submitted by Curran for approximately $4,634,773. Staff said a purchasing review determined the winning bid met the county's purchasing-ordinance requirements and recommended approval.
Committee members asked whether the county's Responsible-Bidder Ordinance (RBO) had caused higher prices or fewer bidders; staff said they had not observed extra expense and that the same bidders generally participate now as before the RBO. Staff recommended the award and the committee voted to approve the recommendation.
Next steps: staff will complete procurement paperwork and execute the construction contract with the recommended bidder, subject to standard purchasing procedures.
