City of Sunny Isles Beach Government Center Annex | RFP# 15-08-02 D. Project Approach and Understanding Page 13 During the procurement phase of the project, comprehensive bid packages will be assembled for the distinct scopes of work identified and reviewed with the city. No less than three (3) qualified bidders will be accepted for each bid package. Packages will include bid forms, commercial terms, schedule requirements, reporting requirements, EHS requirements, profit/ overhead percentages and any other special conditions required for the scope being bid. The packages will also require the bidders to provide the labor rates and unit cost pricing to be used during scope changes. Contract documents and bidding procedures will be aligned with the city construction management contract, site policies and with onsite bidding procedures. Bids will be received, leveled and evaluated during bid review meetings, after which a recommendation will be made for award. A recommendation letter will be issued to the city for the approval of the bid package awards prior to issue any notice to proceed to the selected bidders. Bidder Prequalification: We will identify the most capable subcontractors/vendors. All pre-qualified candidates are thoroughly screened and evaluated, and a final bidders list for each bid package will be presented to the city for approval prior to issuing the bid documents. The prequalification questionnaires will focus on: •Company history, financial/bonding strength and work volume •Company resources and access to manpower •Schedule compression capabilities •Company experience and references •Safety programs and records A Flat Procurement Approach: Skanska will leverage our knowledge of the local subcontractors to implement a Flat Procurement Approach for this project. Our procurement approach is uniquely different from our competitors since it allows us to eliminate the multilayered markups associated with subcontracts and/ or equipment. Taking advantage of the “soft construction market” and expanding our database of traditional public sector builders will enhance project opportunities for more competitive pricing and reduced cost to the project. Your benefit is a reduction on the project cost.
