Board awards Chamberlain Business Park utility contract to F & K Construction
Summary
The Board of Public Works and Safety awarded the Chamberlain Business Park utility improvements contract to F & K Construction, accepting the base bid of $1,333,200 plus a $69,600 mandatory alternate for a total of $1,402,800, following Commonwealth's recommendation and reference checks.
The Board of Public Works and Safety of the City of Rochester voted July 10 to award the Chamberlain Business Park utility improvements contract to F & K Construction. Chair opened the motion naming the base bid and the mandatory coating alternate and the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
Commonwealth representative Mark presented the bid review and recommended the apparent low bidder after reviewing seven responsive bids and performing reference checks, saying the company had the necessary capacity and past performance. Mark stated, "We have no reason not to recommend that." The board accepted the recommendation and directed staff to finalize contract documents and collect signatures.
Bids read during the review ranged roughly from $1.3 million to $2.2 million. The board accepted F & K Construction's base bid of $1,333,200 and the mandatory alternate for coatings on manholes of $69,600, for a total award of $1,402,800. Commonwealth staff described F & K as an established contractor with prior regional projects and multiple crews able to stage work on gravity sewer main and water-main installation.
The decision followed staff presentation and reference checks; the board did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript, but the motion carried on a voice vote. The contractor will be asked to sign award documents and coordinate preconstruction activities with city staff.
