Authorization To Award Bid And To Execute Contract With GV Builders, Inc. For Farmington Highway Shop Salt Storage Building Repair Project
end
PURPOSE/ACTION REQUESTED
Authorize the execution of a contract with GV Builders, Inc. to complete repairs to the Highway Shop Salt Storage Building in Farmington, MN.
SUMMARY
Facilities Management staff inspects all roofs on an annual basis to determine the need for repairs, assess remaining roof life expectancy, and extend the service life of each roof to the greatest extent feasible. The summer inspection in 2023 showed no significant damage to the Farmington Highway Shop Salt Storage Facility. In early December of 2023, staff was notified that there was a significant hole in the upper roof section. Staff engaged one of the County's contracted roofing vendors, who stated they were not able to perform any repairs until a full structural assessment could be completed. Staff then contracted with BKV Group to perform a structural assessment, develop design drawings to address the damaged structure, and repair the roof to extend the life of the facility another estimated three to five years.
Bid documents were prepared by staff with the professional design support of BKV Architectural Group. The project was formally advertised, and two competitive bids were received on June 20, 2024. Those two contractor's bids are as follows:
Contractor Name Total Contract
GV Builders, Inc. $124,800
Exteriors by Highmark $171,536
RECOMMENDATION
recommendation
Staff recommends, after reviewing the qualifications of the low bidder, award to GV Builders, Inc. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in an amount not to exceed $124,800.
