DISCUSSION: This Contract includes the performance of all operations necessary to detail clean Embarcadero, Montgomery, Powell St, Civic Center and 16th St Mission Stations; with 24th St Mission and Berkeley Stations being Additive Bid Items 1 and 2, respectively. The cleaning services will improve the overall appearance of each station's entrance, concourse and platform areas, including replacing burnt-out light bulbs. Advance Notice to Bidders was mailed on December 15, 2006 to eight prospective bidders. Contract Books were mailed to 20 plan rooms and Minority Assistance Organizations. The Contract was advertised on December 19, 2006. A Pre-Bid meeting was conducted on December 26, 2006, with four prospective bidders attending the meeting. The Site lns~ectionTour was conducted on December 28,2006 with five prospective bidders attending. The following two bids were received on January 9, 2007: Bidder Location Base Bid Base Bid Base Bid + Add 1 +Addl&2 1. Clean Innovation Santa Clara $253,996 $286,698 $330,920 2. Rodel Cleaning South S.F. $303,978 $360,389 $404,841 Services ENGINEER'S ESTIMATE $346,000 $374,00 $394,000 District staff has determined that the bid submitted by Clean lnnovation is responsive to the solicitation, and the bidder's license, business experience, and financial capabilities indicate that the bidder is responsible. Staff has also determined that the bid of $330,920, representing the Base Bid plus Additives 1 and 2 (24th St Mission and Berkeley Stations, respectively), which is approximately 16% below the Engineer's EDD: Award Contract No. 6M3044 Estimate, is valid, fair and reasonable. BART staff has determined that there will be no significant effect on the environment by the cleaning operations at the various BART stations, and that this contract is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities. FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for this $330,920 contract is included in Maintenance and Engineering's FY 07 Operating Budget for cleaning services. There is $394,019 available for commitment from this fund source for this project. This action will commit $330,920, leaving an uncommitted balance of $63,099. ALTERNATIVES: The alternative is to reject all bids which will result in deferral of station cleaning that could foster a negative public view of the District's operations, and could imply a disregard for its patrons' sense of comfort and well being. RECOMMENDATION: Adoption of the following motion: MOTION: The General Manager is authorized to award Contract No. 6M3044, Station Cleaning, Various Locations, to Clean Innovation for the bid price of $330,920 (Base Bid plus Additive Items 1 and 2), pursuant to notification to be issued by the General Manager and subject to the District's protest procedures.
