• 1-27(K)(2.) Litigation in which the contractor was involved with the City or other governmental agencies relative to contractor performance. • 1-27(K)(3.) Failure of the contractor to have met bid specifications or time limits in previous contracts. Due to these issues, Standard Construction, Inc. is found to be NOT the most responsive, responsible and/or qualified bidder. Responsiveness of Bid — Asphalt Paving and Supply, Inc. There are discrepancies with Asphalt Paving and Supply, Inc.'s bid numbers for the Park Avenue Reconstruction Project. • AP&S's bid for 8" Water Main is 338% of the average other bids ($225/LF vs $66.55) and is an unreasonably high cost for this work. • AP&S's bid for 8" Sanitary Sewer Main is 404% of the average other bids ($269/LF vs $66.54) and is an unreasonably high cost for this work. Awarding of a contract to AP&S would result in a much greater cost to the City than industry norms and result in a windfall to the contractor. Due to these issues, Asphalt Paving and Supply, Inc. is found to be NOT the most responsive bidder. Responsibleness of Bid —Asphalt Paving and Supply, Inc. Previous issues with the FY13/14 Pavement Rehabilitation Project are resolved to the satisfaction of the City and remedial work is in progress. Accordingly, Asphalt Paving & Supply, Inc. is deemed to be responsible.
