RE:

Consider awarding contract for the 2024 Clarifier Rehabilitation Project

BACKGROUND

SGM, the City’s on-call engineer, compiled the bid documents for the Clarifier Rehabilitation Project. The Project was advertised on the City’s website, BidNet (129 contacts), and in the Cortez Journal. The Invitation to Bid was downloaded by 27 contacts, and eight sets of plans were picked up from the Service Center. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on May 15th at 10:00 AM with three potential bidders in attendance. The bid opening was held on June 5, 2024, with the following three bids being received:

Coblaco Services, Inc.     $470,849.00
Riley Industrial Services, Inc.                           $510,404.00
WBS Coatings, Inc.                                        $796,093.00
          Engineer’s Estimate           $513,000.00

DISCUSSION

The City of Cortez Public Works Department is seeking a qualified contractor for the rehabilitation of a drinking water clarifier structure. The work includes cleaning the clarifier structure and hardware, rehabilitating the hardware for attachments, and blasting and recoating specified clarifier structures and hardware.

FISCAL IMPACT

All monies for the clarifier drive replacement project will be funded through the 2024 Water Fund Capital Projects.

RECOMMENDATION

While all three companies are qualified to perform the necessary work, Coblaco Services, Inc., will meet the City’s needs at the lowest bid price for the drive replacement. Thus, Staff recommends that the City Council award the 2024 Clarifier Rehabilitation Project to Coblaco Services, Inc. at its bid price of $470,849.00.

MOTION

If agreed upon by the City Council, a possible motion would be: I move that City Council award the 2024 Clarifier Rehabilitation Project to Coblaco Services, Inc. at its bid price of $470,849.00.
