6.1E Page 1 REPORT To the Honorable Mayor and City Council From the City Manager October 11, 2010 SUBJECT Award of Contract— Marshall Street Garage & Jefferson Underpass Repainting Project RECOMMENDATION Approve, by motion, the contract documents and award the standard form contract for the Marshall Street Garage & Jefferson Underpass Repainting Project to Tony Painting of Garden Grove, for their responsive and responsible low bid of $158,915.00 and authorize the City Manager to increase the contract amount, if necessary, up to 10% of the amount awarded. BACKGROUND The Marshall Street Garage was constructed in 1994 and the Jefferson Avenue Underpass was completed in 1999. Both facilities require repainting as the existing surfaces are blistered and faded due to regular wear (exposure) and are dissimilarly colored due to graffiti activity. Repainting these two facilities will protect the structures and make them more aesthetically appealing. After meeting with maintenance staff and consulting with product representatives and the architect, staff recommends repainting facilities the same color as existing. The walls will have a flat finish which provides for better coverage in the event of graffiti vandalism. Enamel based paint will be used on metal surfaces. Seven (7) contractors submitted bids for this project as shown below: Bidder Bid Amount Tony Painting—Garden Grove $158,915.00 TPA Construction, Inc. -- Rocklin 250,000.00 Paramount Painting, Inc. --Anaheim 279,200.00 On Point Construction --Millbrae 284,970.00 MK Construction Co. --Millbrae 284,980.00 Industrial Coating & Restoration--Oceanside 434,600.00 Fix Painting Company—Woodland Hills 471,000.00 Engineer's Estimate $250,000.00 Recommended Bidder: Tony Painting 9 Substantiation: Tony Painting is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The low bid of $158,915.00 submitted by Tony Painting is 36% less than engineer's estimate. Staff believes the variance is due to a very competitive bidding environment. Tony Painting is experienced in painting garage structures. They have successfully completed municipal parking garage painting projects valued at over $200,000.00 for the cities of Santa Monica and Beverly Hills. Based on the bids received, staff believes that the low bid is reasonable and recommends awarding the contract to Tony Painting. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose not award the contract for Marshall Street Garage & Jefferson Underpass Repainting Project and direct staff to reject bids, redesign the project, and repeat the public bidding process.
