Re: Resolution 10 -12 - 2012 South Right -of -Way Landscape Maintenance
Background
On Friday, January 13, 2012 staff conducted an online "reverse' bidding process through eBridge
Business Solutions, LLC for the 2012 South Right -of -Way Landscape Maintenance. The 2012
budget for this project is $151,000.
Six approved contractors participated in the "reverse" bidding process. Below are the final bids that
were received from the six contractors:
Base Bid
Rene Castillo Landscaping Maintenance LLC $135,000.00
Rocky Fork Company $135,000.10
Ameriscape Inc. $145,800.00
Pinnacle Property Maintenance $159,057.58
Peabody Landscape Group $166,000.00
Brickman $220,000.00
The contract amount for the South Right -of -Way Landscape Maintenance Project in 2011 with
Rocky Fork Company was for $159,000.
Attached is the eBridge Event Summary Report, which is a snapshot of the final viewing screen
and lists all contractors, rank, their initial and final bids, and how many bids each contractor
placed. This report also includes a graph charting the entire event as well as a list of statistics
regarding the bid. Also attached is the Final Bid Submission report. This one -page report lists
all participating contractors, their rank at the end of the event, their final bid amount, and a
time and date stamp.
Recommendation
Rene Castillo Landscaping and Maintenance LLC, apparent low bidder by $0.10, is a newly formed
company. Although staff is familiar with the owner and their employees through their employment
with another large landscape company, staff believes that granting such a large contract to them
at this point would not be prudent.
Note that staff has contracted with Rene Castillo Landscaping and Maintenance LLC for the
Facilities Landscape Maintenance project. This contract for 2012 in the amount of $48,000 includes
all labor, materials and equipment necessary for the maintenance of all landscaped areas and turf
for the Dublin Arts Center, 5800 Building, Justice Center, Municipal Building, Coffman Homestead,

Service Center, Fleet Center and Fire Station 95 (5750 Blazer Parkway). The personnel assigned to
this maintenance contract have had many years of experience, and the references staff has
received for this company have been positive.
Staff recommends adoption of Resolution 10 -12 accepting Rocky Fork Company's base bid of
$135,000.10 for the 2012 South Right -of -Way Landscape Maintenance Project. Rocky Fork
Company has done previous work for the City, and staff has found their work to be satisfactory.
Rocky Fork is also being retained for the second year on the 2012 North Right -of -Way Landscape
Maintenance Project with no price increase.
