North Knox awards $5.3 million CTE construction contract to Wolf Construction
Summary
The North Knox School Corp board approved a $5,299,339 contract to Wolf Construction for CTE renovation work, saying the low bid came in about 10% under the district's estimate. A pre-construction meeting is scheduled to begin logistics and scheduling.
The North Knox School Corp board voted to award the construction contract for the district's Career and Technical Education renovation to Wolf Construction for $5,299,339.
Administrators told the board six contractors bid on the project and that Wolf Construction’s low bid came in roughly 10% below the district’s estimate. An administrator presenting the bid materials said the low spread between the two lowest bids reflected detailed specifications that helped bidders prepare competitive offers.
The board also approved a separate $10,000 procurement-assistance package to support FF&E (furniture, fixtures and equipment) selection and bidding for the CTE work.
A pre-construction meeting with the contractor and subcontractors is scheduled for Wednesday to address logistics and scheduling. The presenter said construction activities are expected to begin in mid‑December and that members should expect visible site work in the building in the following weeks.
The board approved the contract and the procurement-assistance item by voice vote; the transcript records the motions, a second, and the chairman announcing the motion carried. Specific individual roll-call tallies were not recorded in the meeting transcript.
The board did not identify any conditions or amendments to the award during the discussion. The administration said it would oversee the pre-construction coordination and return to the board if contract changes are required.
