Bids read for Tanner Bridge replacement; lowest transcribed at $2.12 million
Summary
At a public bid opening, an unidentified speaker read six bids for the Tanner Bridge Road replacement (federal project BROR026025). The transcript shows the lowest bid transcribed as $2,122,380.46; the speaker said bids will be evaluated.
An unidentified speaker read six bids during a public bid opening for the Tanner Bridge Road replacement project (federal project BROR026025). The bids, as read on the record, ranged from $2,122,380.46 to $6,446,984.42.
The transcript lists the bidders and amounts as follows: E and C Bridal — $2,787,959.06; McGruder Construction Company — $3,437,889.00; Tamira Excavating — $2,314,448.04; Lewis and Company — $6,446,984.42; Don Schneidert excavating — $2,122,380.46; and Jean Hale excavating — $3,024,942.50. The speaker closed the item by saying, "We will get these evaluated, and we will," indicating staff will review the submissions.
Why it matters: public bid openings establish the competitive offers for federally identified projects and are the first formal step before a contracting agency evaluates bids and recommends an award. The transcript does not identify the office running the opening or state a bid deadline or award timetable.
Transcript notes and name-spelling inconsistencies: the transcript contains inconsistent spellings and possible transcription errors. For example, the project name appears as both "Tanner Bridal Road bridal replacement" and references elsewhere that read "bridge." Bidder names also appear with variant spellings later in the record (see clarifying details). This article reports the bids exactly as transcribed and flags those inconsistencies for verification by procurement staff.
Next steps: the speaker said the bids will be evaluated; the transcript provides no further timetable for award or protest periods.
