Board awarded the work to the lowest cost bidder, Alvarez Landscape (Alvarez), in an amount not to exceed $50,000 in

For reference, the tabular results of the bid opening are reprinted in Table 1 below:

The scope of work includes of 29 acres of weekly turf mowing at 75 distinct, publicly owned sites throughout Mount
Prospect. Bidders submitted a weekly cost to mow each individual site.
Alvarez had not performed work for the Village of Mount Prospect in the past. However, reference checks, including
telephone interviews with contract administrators, indicated the firm had ample resources and experience to perform the
specified work.

6/7/2017 BoardDocs® Pro
Alvarez began mowing on April 3, 2017. On April 27, 2017 we were contacted by the project manager for Alvarez who
stated that they had "under bid" the project and wanted to talk to the Village about adjusting their bid price. Staff advised
Alvarez that terms and prices could not be modified after award and execution of the contract without re -bidding the work
to avail similar opportunity to other contractors.
Staff subsequently engaged further discussion of Alvarez' issues and suggested that they not string trim all the sites every
week but rather every other week, or as needed. Staff also suggested that better routing of work crews could reduce
personnel requirements and improve crew efficiency. Alvarez agreed to implement staff's suggestions.
On May 8, 2017 staff contacted Alvarez to notify them of contract performance deficiencies. Specifically, our inspections
indicated that all mowing areas were not receiving adequate quality or frequency of service.
On the same day, in response to our outreach, we were contacted by the vice president of Alvarez, who apologized for
their poor performance and asked that they be released from the contract.
Subsequently, staff held a meeting with both the vice president and project manager from Alvarez on May 11, 2017 to
discuss the matter in further detail. At this meeting, Alvarez again stated that they "underbid" the project, and asked for
an increase in their rates or a reduction in the scope of work. Staff declined these requests.
On May 19, 2017, staff received an email from Alvarez' vice president formally requesting release from the contract and
requesting that the transmittal be received as their formal ten-day notice of termination required by contract provisions.
The Village Attorney has determined that this notice satisfies Alvarez' contractual obligation. For reference, a copy of
this email is attached.
The turf mowing contract provides that either party, the Village or the contractor, can elect to terminate the agreement
upon ten (10) days written advanced notice.
The contract does not require a performance bond to guarantee completion of the work. Analysis of previous turf mowing
contracts containing a performance bond requirement indicated the provision yielded inflationary pressure on bid prices
and a limiting effect on the volume of bidders. Staff concluded that the nature of the landscape maintenance market place
does not ubiquitously support work bonding as a business practice. Other than a detrimental effect on their work history,
Alvarez will not incur a significant financial penalty for terminating this contract.
Staff now seeks Village Board approval to hire a new contractor to complete the remainder of the Alvarez' two (2) year
contract.
It is the opinion of staff that re -bidding the work at this juncture would not serve the best interests of the Village. Re-
bidding would require a 4-6 weeks hiatus, during the height of growing season, in order to let a new bid, award a contract,
and mobilize a new contractor.
Furthermore, it is also staff's opinion that the results of the February 2017 bid letting are sufficiently recent and remain a
valid representation of the market place.
In addition, it is likely that the timing of a turf mowing bid letting so late in the growing season would limit bidders to poor
performers with inadequate books of business or larger firms willing to absorb the new work at premium rates.
As soon as Alvarez indicated they were looking to be released from the contract, staff contacted Allscape Contractors,
Inc. of Romeoville, Illinois (Allscape), the second lowest bidder from the February 2017 bid opening, to see if they were
still interested in the work. The owner of the company indicated that he was, and could assume the contract within two
(2) weeks. A copy of Allscape's bid submittal is attached.
Allscape has not performed work for the Village in the past. However, all of their bid submittal references provided very
favorable reports. We also asked Allscape to provide additional references. All of the additional references, including a
reference for municipal work from the Village of Cary that is essentially the same size and scope as our contract, also
hftps://www.boarddocs.com/il/vomp/Board.nsf/Private?open&login# 2/3

BoardDocs® Pro
indicated that Allscape's work was satisfactory and that they consistently adhered to the specifications of the respective
contracts.
Alternatives
1. Waive the requirements for public bidding and award a two (2) year contract for turf mowing.
2. Action at discretion of Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board waive the rules requiring public bidding and award a two (2) year contract for
turf mowing to Allscape Contractors, Inc. of Romeoville, Illinois in an amount not to exceed $55,525 in 2017.
Expenditures in 2018 will be at bid rates but limited to appropriations authorized in the 2018 budget.
