Dear Sir:
Re: Reeve Street Reconstruction

The tender for Project 900 - 285, Reeve Street Reconstruction closed on July 15, 1994 at
3:00pm. The City of Port Coquitlam received three tenders and the apparent low bid was _
from Bel Construction Ltd. with a total tendered amount of $1,245,960.43 inclusive of GST.

| UMA has analyzed the bids from the three contractors (see attached spreadsheet). It was”

found that the low bidder was lower than average on 25 of 52 Items on Schedule A and lower.
than average on two of the eight Items on Schedule B. Bel Construction did not have the

lowest tendered price for Schedule B.

Most of the anit prices greater than the average unit price tendered are within 25% of the ©
average unit price tendered for that Item, On six of the Items the low bidder is more than
40% higher than the average unit price. These iteras are: paved median surface, lawn basin, . -

tiser manhole, 100mm and 150mm diameter PYC sanitary services, topsoil and sodded
surface. Items such as: paved median surface, lawn basins, riser manhole and topsoil and —

- sodding are not likely to exceed the estimated quantities. These items are generally

considered to be neat line quantities and the final quantities are not anticipated to change .
from the tendered quantities. an | | re
