cc -47
On August 17, 1988, the City Council approved
specifications and authorized advertisement for bids for 50
Action upholstered theater chairs with tilt- up seat, for
use in the Fine Arts Theater a, Hutchins Street Square.
Bids were opened on August 30, 1988 with results as follows:
Warden's Office Furniture $5,962.50
Durst Office Furniture $6,172.91
GI. P. Wesson & Cc. $6,352.05
J. H. L. Office Furniture $7,37.7.25
On September 7, 1988, the City Council adopted Resolution
No. 88-121 awarding the bid to Warden's Office Furniture,
as recommended by Staff.
Subsequent to the award, w'arden's withdrew their bid,
citing incorrect pricing information from the
manufacturer. Durst and W. P. Wesson did likewise.
J. ti. L. maintained their bid.
It i s the Purchasing Department's recommendation that,
rather than award the bid to the sole remaining bidder,
J. H. L. Office Interiors, the project be re -bid. :e1hile
the City would not receive pricing in the $5,962.50 to
$6,352.05 range, City would likely receive bids in the
$6,900 to $7,200 range, some $100 to $400 below J. H. L.'s
price of $7,327.25 above.
$7,500 was budgeted for this purchase in the Equipment Fund.
If recommendation is approved, the bid opening would be
held on Tuesday, November 29, 1988.
