PURPOSE:
The bids for Contract 2017-01A (Resurfacing of Streets) have been received. In order for the work to proceed on this contract, City Council approval is requested for award of the contract to Vecellio & Grogan, DBA: Sharpe Brothers Grading, Inc. in the amount of $642,122.10.
BACKGROUND:
This work consists of all labor, equipment, and incidentals required for both demolition and resurfacing of various streets. The bids were opened on February 23, 2017 and the apparent lowest, responsible bidder is Vecellio & Grogan, DBA: Sharpe Brothers Grading, Inc. (Charlotte, NC) with a bid of $642,122.10.
The M/WBE utilization goal was MBE 0% and WBE 0%.
The contractor's commitment is MBE 0% and WBE 0%.
Note: in order to provide opportunity for bidding to 'smaller prime contractors', the original resurfacing contract (2017-001) was de-bundled by removing several street segments for this contract. Also, segments were chosen to have very minimum, if any, impacts requiring utility adjustments (which are usually accomplished by MWBE subcontractors). This allowed for the 0% goals and targeting of MWBE Prime Contractors if available.
Additional bids received were:
Waugh Asphalt Inc. $675,422.51 MBE 0%, WBE 4.0% Franklinville, NC
Blythe Construction, Inc. $692,142.75 MBE 0%, WBE 2.75% Charlotte, NC
