Bids Received. MoDOT received only two bids for the project. The first bidder (Xxxxx Xxxx and Sons) included three pre-approved ATCs in their bid. The second bidder (Xxxx Construction and BobBergkamp Construction) bid the MoDOT-supplied base plans. A third contractor went through the ATC approval process and had a pre-approved ATC, but elected not to bid on the project. Xxxxx Xxxx and Sons was declared the low bidder and was ultimately awarded the contract. This amount of bidders is typical for a project of this size in this location. The ATCs bid by Xxxxx Xxxx and Sons resulted in an approximately $6 million overall savings to the project. Below is a summary of the three ATCs:
(1) Changes to the horizontal and vertical alignments at the north end of the project, changes to the vertical alignment from Route 90 to the Arkansas state line, and changes to the ramp configuration at the Route 90 diamond interchange.
(2) Revised culvert dimensions at certain locations, revised connections between precast box culvert segments, and an alternate joint sealing method between precast box culvert segments.
(3) Revised high-embankment typical section.
Bids Received. The bid results in December were reviewed and the ATC bidder was the apparent low bidder however the bid was over the Programed Total Cost. Bids for the Project were ultimately rejected by the Commission. It was decided to Re-Let the project in April of 2022 without using the ATC Process. MoDOT received similar bids in total cost as the first letting. The previous ATC bidder combined with another Contractor to bid the project the 2nd time (both were separate bidders the in December of 2021). The newly formed Contracting Team bid more than their previous bids. The ATC bidder claimed they needed to form a Joint Venture for the second bid due to lack of available resources to take on the project and this likely resulted in their higher bid. American Bridge Company was awarded the contract for $66,488,000 (well over the Programmed amount). No further action was taken from the ATC Process after award.
