INTERWEST <br /> r CONSTRUCTION <br /> INC. <br /> u y ,2010 <br /> Ryan Sass,PE <br /> City of Everett <br /> Public Works <br /> 3200 Cedar Street <br /> Everett,WA 98201 <br /> RE: Hoyt Avenue Streetscape Improvements <br /> W.O.#PW 3353 <br /> Notice of Bid Error <br /> Ryan: <br /> Interwest Construction Inc.(Interwest)is submitting this declaration to the City of Everett that we wish to <br /> claim error in our bid for the Hoyt Avenue Streetscape Improvements per WSDOT Standard Specification <br /> 1-03.1 and RCW 47.28.090. After a post-bid review, Interwest is requesting relief from the <br /> responsibilities of Award due to errors we made in bid items A23 — Cleaning and Painting — Existing <br /> Metal Canopy/Arbor and A61 —Trellis, Column, Window Wall, and Vine Support Hardware. We have <br /> attached copies of the bid work sheets for these two items from our estimating software. <br /> In bid item A23,we estimated the cleaning and painting of the Existing Metal Canopy/Arbor for just the <br /> area of the new trellis as shown on plan sheet LS9 for a length of approximately 40 lineal feet. This was <br /> in error and did not include the entire length of the Canopy/Arbor along Hoyt Avenue. Our estimated <br /> cost to complete this work is a fraction of the amount needed to complete this work. <br /> In bid item A61, we based on pricing on the details shown in plan sheet LS9. However, we missed the <br /> total footage of Canopy/Arbor in which the columns,window walls and vine support hardware will need <br /> to be installed. The amount of columns, window walls and vine support hardware in our bid was for <br /> approximately 40 lineal feet of Canopy/Arbor. Upon further review of the bid documents, we have <br /> discovered that we should have included columns, window walls and vine support hardware for <br /> approximately 420 lineal feet of Canopy/Arbor. Our bid included $7,500.00 for-materials for the <br /> columns, window walls and vine support hardware. We did not receive vendor and/or subcontractor <br /> quotes for this work at prior to bid time. We called two vendors for the stainless steel hardware for the <br /> vine support hardware and with domestic materials,the quotes ranged from $84,552 to $91,239. This is <br /> much more than the $7,500 we have in our bid. It also does not include the columns and window walls. <br /> We expect that we would lose at least $120,000 in this bid item in labor, equipment and materials if we <br /> were to not claim error withthis bid. <br /> Supporting documents are attached to this letter for your review and information. Please note that the <br /> material quotes were verbal quotes taken today.. p ' ktt me to discuss and questions or concerns <br /> that you may have. ��� .
