Hansz, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer From: Paul E. Burnham, P.E., Civil Engineer Subject: Fairway Boulevard Force Main Replacement Project Bid Tabulation Bids were received and opened at 2:30 p.m. on April 25, 2007 for the referenced project. The City received only one bid on this project, as noted below. Murphy Pipeline Contractors, Inc. 11243-4 St. Johns Industrial Parkway South Jacksonville, FL 32246 Montana Contractor's Registration No. F050709 Date of Qualification to Do Business: March 6, 2007 Amount Bid: $5W201 The 2007 engineer's estimate for this project was $680,000. The project is budgeted as Line Item 957 Force Main and Lift Station ##9 Fairway Boulevard Capacity Improvements for $701,360 in the current budget. Murphy Pipeline Contractors is finishing the Grandview Force Main Project this week. The per - foot cost on the Grandview project was $124. Murphy Pipeline's per -foot bid amount on the Fairway project is $95. The Grandview and Fairway projects are similar in terms of pipe sues (both are 6" to 10" pipe bursts). The Fairway project is 6 180 linear feet and the Grandview project was 2240 linear feet. As a point of reference, the per -foot bid price from a northwestern Montana contractor (V.L.C.I. based in Missoula) on the Grandview project was $195. The price the City has received on the Fairway project ($586,201 total or $95 per foot) reflects the economy of scale on this larger project and also reflects a substantial decrease in mobilization costs. The bid price of $586,201 on this project is an exceptional value for the City. Murphy Pipeline V. Contractors, Inc. has performed well on the current project. I recommend that Murphy Pipeline Contractors, Inc. be awarded the contract for the Fairway Boulevard Force Main Replacement Project. gym:• ,.�,,.; City of Kali*spell Public Works Department ..v>r.,. ......... . :. rr`: tiraz�� r'r�x ,.,.:�,.� n � ', � n : .,� . �'= �•:r �'�;<=-ice. ,,,;;�', q M y N: Post Office Box 1997, Kalispell Montana 59903- 1997 � Telephone (406)758--7720, Fax (�406)758-'�83 1 7 REPORT TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: James C.
