Board rescinds prior FMS fire-alarm award and reassigns contract to 3D Fire
Summary
District staff said a qualified bid was inadvertently omitted from the prior award; the board voided the earlier action and voted to award the Franklin Middle School fire-alarm replacement to 3D Fire Protection of Idaho Falls for $295,600.
District staff told the Pocatello District board that an administrative error at the previous meeting failed to record a qualified bid for Franklin Middle School's fire-alarm system.
Administrators said the bid from 3D Fire of Idaho Falls met all required items, was delivered on time, and should have been considered at the prior opening. Staff recommended declaring the previous award to Saunders Electric and State Fire Idaho null and void and awarding the revised bid to 3D Fire Protection for $295,600; the board voted to do so.
Staff said they have implemented additional checks to prevent similar oversights in future bid openings. The transcript records the motion, second and that the motion passed but does not include a roll-call tally.
