The difference between the estimate and low bid price may reflect the contractor's ability to procure the specified door hardware at discounted prices. The low bidder, CFO, possesses a California State Contractors License Classification "C -28" as Community Youth Center Door Hardware Improvements — Award of Contract No. 4309 May 11, 2010 Page 2 required by the project specifications. A check of CFO's references indicates they have satisfactorily completed similar door hardware projects for other public organizations in Los Angeles, Alhambra, and Oxnard. The base bid includes exterior door hardware only. Two additive bid items for interior door hardware were included in the bid package. After review with Recreation and Senior Services Department staff and evaluation of the bid pricing, Staff recommends adding Additive Bid Items 1 and 2 to the contract at a cost of $4,061.00. The work for this contract includes removing and disposing of existing door hardware, installing new door hardware, and completing other incidental items in place as required by the Plans and Specifications. The contractor will have 15 consecutive working days to complete the work. While the City's standard contingency is ten percent, for small projects, this could easily be depleted by minor changes in conditions. Therefore, staff requests a contingency of $4,600.00, representing approximately 15 percent of the contract value. Environmental Review: The project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Implementing Guidelines.
