Deputy Director Okaloosa County Airports 1701 State Road 85 N Eglin AFB, Florida 32542-1413 Re: Recommendation of Award; Bid No. AP 49-14 Boarding Bridges and Bag Lifts Dear Mr, Stage, We have reviewed the bids submitted on June 25, 2014 for the above referenced project. The County had a total of two bidders, however only one was responsive. Thyssen Krupp Airport Systems Inc. Base Bid: $1,686,450.00 Additive 1: $ 197,577.00 Additive 2: $ 114,611.00 Cathey Construction and Development, LLC No price provided Thyssen Krupp Airport Systems Inc., (TKAS) has been determined to be the lowest responsive bidder, Details of their bid are listed below: © History- In Florida alone, TKAS has supplied 55 bridges to Miami, 35 to Orlando, 28 to West Palm Beach, 12 to Sanford, two in Tallahassee, and 13 to Tampa. Internationally, they have installed over 5,000 bridges. They have been in business for 30 years and are widely considered a reputable manufacturer of airport boarding bridges. o Size of Firm- Bonding capacity of $400M. They have 217,042 s.f. of manufacturing space with 14 overhead cranes. © Subcontractor- The installer they identify is Aero Bridge Works for a contract value of $241,864.00, No Subcontractor Qualification form was provided, however it was not required because the subcontract amount is below $500,000 and it is less than 25% of contract value. © DBE participation- TKAS lists two DBE subcontractors. The first is Airport Contractor Services for an amount of $103,101.00 to perform or. supply barricades, cranes, engineering, apron striping, and auxiliary components. The second fs Davis Freight Management for an amount of $27,635 to perform transportation, Since equipment suppliers only count for 60% of total, this number is adjusted to $89,496 which equates to 4.48%; exceeding the County goal of 4.03%. Funding- Since there is two different grants, the bag lifts must be broken out of the bid schedule. For tracking, | have identified the boarding bridges as Grant #1 and the Bag lifts as Grant #2. Please refer to attached Bid Tab for calculations under the heading “Funding Adjustments”. The total for Grant #1 including additive bids (preconditioned air and ground power) is $1,858,917. The total for Grant #2 is $139,721. A bid bond was provided and all required forms were completed without exception. All addendums were acknowledged. Thyssen Krupp provided a General Contractors license and the installer provided a Florida General Contractor’s license. In LPA’s review, we found no major unbalanced unit prices and no irregularities with their bid. It is our opinion the bid is complete and responsive, subject to County Purchasing review and Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners’ approval. LPA recommends award of the contract to Thyssen Krupp Airport Systems Inc. Selection of the additive bids is dependent on grant funding and local matches, Should you have questions, please advise.
