Re: City of Winter Springs Streetscapes Project
Engineer's Bid Review
CPH Project No. W04108
Dear Mr. Lockcutf
We received copies ofthe bid packages from the City for all of the bidders on the above
referenced project. Five (5) bids were received. CPH Engineers has prepared a bid tabulation
based on the pay items contained on the bid sheet and received from all of the bidders. This is
attached for your review and consideration. In order of increasing total bid price, we have ranked
the three lowest bidders:
Rank Bidder Total Bid
1 Gel/General Constructors Inc. $781,759.37
2 Gibbs and Register $842,898.30
Valley Crest Landscape Development
3 Inc. $842,950.65
The Engineer's Opinion of Probable Construction Cost was -$800,000.00. The contract bid
amount is less than the Engineer's Opinion of Probable Construction Cost.
From our review of the bid tabulation, it appears that the prices from Gel/General Constructors,
Inc. reflect an understanding of the work required by the plans and specifications. No
mathematical errors were found in their bid and their bid package appears to be in order. There
are no MBE/WBE requirements for this project.
A telephone review/check of their listed references indicates that the work performed in the field
was of good quality and in accordance with the specifications. However, several references
revealed that there were problems encountered with the office support on issues such as change
orders, pay requests, etc. The problems described, however, do not constitute a valid reason for
rejecting their bid.
.
.
.
Based on our review of the available data (completed bid packages and contractor supplied
references), we have no objection to the City proceeding with the award of the bid to
Gel/General Constructors, Inc. in the amount of$781,759.37. Please note that we have not
reviewed any financial data, as we are not accounting professionals. If such a review is required,
we recommend either a review by your Finance Department or your financial adviser/accountant.
The contractor bonds and insurance as required by the specifications will be reviewed prior to
execution of the agreement.
Please contact us if additional information is needed concerning the above.
Sincerely,
CPR ENGINEERS, INe.

Project Manager
