SUBJECT:

2015 Task Order Contract for Pavement Markings



SUMMARY:

This ordinance accepts the lowest responsive bid and awards a construction contract in the amount not to exceed $1,421,553.00, payable to Flasher Equipment Company, in connection with the 2015 Task Order Contract for Pavement Markings, for the installation and maintenance of pavement markings at numerous locations throughout the City, as approved in the FY 2015 - 2019 Infrastructure Management Program (IMP).



BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Project Background
During the FY 2015 Budget process, City Council approved $1 million in General Funds to complete numerous pavement markings projects. Other potential funding sources for pavement markings in the City are the Advanced Transportation District (ATD) Program, Annual Traffic Signal Program, and Neighborhood Access and Mobility Program (NAMP). The Transportation and Capital Improvements Department solicited bids for construction services and is recommending to use Flasher Equipment Company to complete these projects.


This Contract was advertised for construction bids in September 2014, in the San Antonio Hart Beat, on the City's website, on the Texas Electronic State Business Daily, on TVSA and through the TCI Small Business Office. Bids were due on October 14, 2014 and two (2) bidders responded. Flasher Equipment Company was the lowest responsive bidder with a bid amount of $1,421,553.00.

This contract is within the scope of the SBEDA Program. However, due to lack of available firms and/or subcontracting opportunities, the Goal Setting Committee was unable to apply a SBEDA Affirmative Procurement Initiative to this contract.

This construction contract was developed utilizing the low bid process; therefore, a Discretionary Contracts Disclosure Form is not required.
