Adopt a Resolution accepting bids and awarding a contract to RAN
Enterprises, Inc., in the amount of $681,490 for the City Hall Roof
Replacement and HVAC Refurbishment, Project No. 4718.
Recommended Action
Adopt a Resolution accepting bids and awarding a contract to RAN Enterprises, Inc., in the
amount of $681,490 for the City Hall Roof Replacement and HVAC Refurbishment, Project No.
4718.
Executive Summary
On December 13, 2016, City Council approved Resolution No. 2016-240 to allow the plans and
specifications for the City Hall Roof Replacement and HVAC Refurbishment, Project No. 4718, to
be advertised for bid. The documents were posted on Planet Bids and a pre-bid conference was
held at City Hall on January 11, 2017. Bids were received on January 25, 2017, and the lowest
responsive bid was from RAN Enterprises, Inc. in the amount of $681,490.
Discussion
The City Hall facility was constructed in 1968. The Faithful & Gould report estimates that the roof
was likely replaced in 1995 and should therefore be replaced again in 2016 as it is beyond its
typical useful life. The report also states that the roof top air handlers are in excess of 20 years
old, beyond their typical useful life and should also be replaced.
An estimate of $404,000 was presented to Council for authorization to bid. Two additional
estimates were solicited prior to bidding for both HVAC and roof work. The average of these
three informal estimates was $705,525. This final estimate reflects the opinions of the roof
architect and a HVAC engineer and is more in line with the bid values received.
The bids received for this work were evaluated by staff to ensure completeness and compliance
with the bidding requirements. The bids were then ranked based on bid value, as shown below:
Item #2 March 14, 2017 Page 1 of 6
CONTRACTOR TOTAL BID
1. ERC Roofing and Waterproofing $642,305
2. RAN Enterprises, Inc. $681,490
3. Prava Construction Services, Inc. $726,301
4. Cyber Professional Solutions, Corp. $769,842
Though ERC Roofing and Waterproofing submitted the lowest bid in the amount of $642,305,
staff found their bid documents to be non-responsive. ERC Roofing and Waterproofing did not
provide notarized signatures on its bid and bond documents and erroneous information was
provided for one of its subcontactors. Staff has completed a review of the next lowest bidder,
RAN Enterprises, Inc., and has found their bid to be responsive.
Given that the bidding environment was competitive and there are sufficient funds in the project
budget, staff recommends accepting the second lowest bid and awarding a contract to RAN
Enterprises, Inc.
This project will result in meeting objectives of the city's Energy Conservation and Management
Policy 71 and the Climate Action Plan. Specifically, these features include:
• Energy efficiency {Policy No. 71, paragraph 2 Construction of Civic Facilities, subparagraph
a: Design and construct mechanical and electrical systems to achieve the maximum
energy efficiency achievable with current technology)
• Energy management and control {Policy No. 71, paragraph 3 Building Maintenance and
Operation: Standardized energy management and control systems shall be utilized in all
Civic Facilities to minimize energy consumption)
• Commission city facilities {CAP Action G-2: Commission city facilities to improve building
operations and energy costs)
