INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: VILLAGE MANAGER MICHAEL E. JANONIS
FROM: SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS & BUILDINGS
DATE: APRIL 25, 2011
SUBJECT: SEALED BID RESULTS FOR THE 2011/12 SEWER CATCH BASIN &
INLET REPAIR CONTRACT (NOT TO EXCEED $65,110)
BACKGROUND
This bid is for our annual contract for sewer catch basin and inlet repair. Many of our older
structures are made of brick and, with time, the mortar or brick deteriorate requiring patching,
reconstructing, or total replacement. The repairs are usually made with concrete adjustment rings
or precast cones to minimize future deterioration of the mortar joints. This work is usually
completed by late August to make sure all structures are in good repair for the fall rainy season
and to minimize any possible winter failures. The proposed agreement is for a 2 -year term
concluding at the end of 2012, with a possible one year extension based on performance. Prices
are to remain firm (no increases) throughout the 2 -year term. If an extension is granted, prices
will remain unchanged through the extended term as well.
BID RESULTS
Sealed bids were opened at 1:00 P.M. on April 18, 2011 for proposed sewer catch basin and inlet
repairs. Bid prices were based on estimated quantities of 20 -25 structures per year to be adjusted,
reconstructed or replaced. Invitational bids were mailed, and a bid notice was placed in the local
paper.
Four bids were received, and bid results are as follows:
Bidder Bid Price
Concrete Etc., Inc., St. Charles, IL $ 67,985.00
Lifco Construction, East Dundee, IL $ 80,550.00

DISCUSSION
The successful low bidder, Concrete Etc., Inc., supplied us with three references. All three
references were called and they said Concrete Etc., Inc. has done quality work and they would

RECOMMENDATION

basin and inlet repair contract for an amount not to exceed $65,110.
Quantities will be adjusted so that the total expenditure will not exceed the budgeted amount.
Staff also requests authority to extend the contract by one (1) year if performance is satisfactory
and the contractor agrees to maintain pricing. Any expenditures during an extended term will
also be limited to approved budgeted amounts.
