Bid Irregularities
:
The bid submitted by Base Group had a small mathematical error. On their bid form, they showed the Total of Base Bid to be $379,700.00, while the sum of the products of the estimated quantity of each item and the corresponding unit price actually results in the total of $379,775.00, a difference of $75.00. We recommend this error be considered minor and informal, and do not recommend rejection.
Construction Estimate:
The total construction cost for this project was estimated at $562,500.00 and was prepared by Morrison-Maierle. The low bid from Base Group was $379,775.00, approximately 32% lower than the Engineer's Estimate.
