Rationale:
This resolution is to grant the administration the authority to enter into contract as described above. In compliance with General Municipal Law 103, this contract was let for public and bids were opened in public and read aloud on July 10, 2020. Nine bids were opened and examined and all due diligence observed in determining the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

After interviewing the apparent low bidder and confirming that they understood the scope of work, bids were found to be correct Premier Group Inc (Premier) was determined to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. School Facilities Management, Engineer and Construction Manager are recommending the award of the subject contract to Premier.

The scope of CIP10891 includes new ceilings and LED lights in the cafeteria as well as the hallways and stairwells on all floors of the cafeteria & library sections of the building.

CIP10891 also includes the replacement of deteriorated and problematic heating supply & return piping. This underground piping runs outside the building between the auto-shop boiler room and the library wing section of the building.

The work was designed by Eisenbach & Ruhnke Engineering, P.C. and the original project scope has been expanded to include the ceilings and lights in the library section of the building. The current budget is $1.4 million up from $0.5 million due to the added scope and a revised engineer’s estimate for the pipe replacement work.
