Background and Purpose of Request:

Requestor: James H. Gailey

County staff held a bid opening on July 30, 2024.  The County received 7 bids with a base bid price ranging from $3,283,303 to $3,640,000 and six additional alternative bid prices collectively ranging in price from $374,222 to $495,461.  A federal requirement of the bid was for all federal certification documents be filled out upon submitting the bid.  Unfortunately, four bids came in without the required federal documentation fill out.  Not having done this was a deduction in the scoring of the bids.

 

After review, County staff are bringing an award of bid to Benchmark, Inc., of Westbrook, Maine with a base bid of $3,384,908 and awarding all six alternative bids in the amount of $438,000 for a total award of bid of $3,822,908.
