SUBJECT: Authorize the award of Bid No. 22-15, Slurry Seal Services to Viking Construction
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
Slurry seal is a thin asphalt overlay/seal coat made up of aggregate, asphalt emulsion, and fillers that is used to extend the service life of roadways by protecting the undersurface from the effects of aging and the environment. Applying slurry seal fills in small cracks and surface imperfections to give the roadway a uniform color and texture.
The City solicits Slurry Seal Service bids every two (2) years in order to procure needed services for the application of slurry seal. The City's current slurry seal services contract is set to expire April 28, 2022.
An Invitation to Bid (ITB) was issued for Slurry Seal Services for the large infrastructure on City roadways, parking lots, bike lanes, and other paved areas throughout the city. The total purchase of services will not exceed $1,000,000 citywide in FY22 and future year expenditures will be based on the approved budget and subject to City Council approval.
On February 10, 2022, two (2) vendors submitted bids: Viking Construction and Intermountain Slurry Seal. Bids were opened and read aloud for the City's procurement of the annual requirements of Slurry Seal Services. Bidders were instructed to bid items based upon estimated annual need per item and per item amounts.
