Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with ProCon Professional Construction Services, Inc., for the renovation of various Fire Division apparatus bay plumbing drains. The work will consist of plumbing work, saw cutting of concrete, removal of concrete and installation of new concrete. The work will be performed at seven fire stations: Fire Station #5, 211 McNaughten Road; Fire Station #6, 5750 Maple Canyon Avenue; Fire Station #7, 1425 Indianola Avenue; Fire Station #12, 3200 Sullivant Avenue; Fire Station #15, 1800 East Livingston Avenue; Fire Station #16, 1130 East Weber Road; and Fire Station #20, 2646 East Fifth Avenue. The current bay drains at these locations are in poor condition and do not properly drain water and other liquids, potentially causing unsafe floors. The contractor will have 120 calendar days upon award of the contract to complete this project.

Roto Rooter $193,800.00
Waterworks $219,474.65
Fox Mechanical $249,500.00

The Office of Construction Management recommends that the bid be awarded to the most responsive and responsible bidder, ProCon Professional Construction Services, Inc.
