Report
Summary
The purpose of this project is to deliver the reconstruction of the apron pavement for the West Air Cargo Apron located north and west of the center runway at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX). Additional work will consist of drainage improvements, pavement markings, and utility adjustments, as required. The ramp area is approximately 95,500 square yards of existing asphalt pavement located just west of the existing cargo building, east of the Aviation Facilities and Services building, in the northwest corner of the south airfield. The project will be constructed in an active airfield environment within the current boundaries of the PHX Air Operations Area.
J. Banicki Construction, Inc.'s services include, but are not limited to: reconstruct approximately 95,500 square yards of airfield apron with new concrete pavement, including a vehicle service road along with associated lighting, striping, and site drainage improvements. The work will be constructed within project phasing requirements that minimize impacts to PHX operations.
The selection was made using an Invitation for Bids procurement process set forth in section 34-201 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Five bids were received on May 23, 2023, and were sent to the Equal Opportunity Department for review to determine subcontractor eligibility and contractor responsiveness that demonstrates compliance with Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program requirements.

- Coffman Specialties, Inc.: $26,495,000
- Pulice Construction, Inc.: $28,485,054.50
