The selection was made using an Invitation for Bids procurement process set forth in Section 34-201 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Three bids were received on November 19, 2024, and were sent to the Equal Opportunity Department for review to determine subcontractor eligibility and contractor demonstrating responsiveness to Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program requirements.

Combs Construction Company, Inc.: $37,482,442.20

Pulice Construction, Inc.: $41,782,699.30

 

Although the bid exceeds the Engineer’s Opinion of Probable Cost by more than 10 percent, it has been determined the bid represents a fair and reasonable price for the required work scope. Additionally, the bid award amount is within the total budget for this project.
