Moved by Unknown Board Member [0:28:44] · Seconded by Donna Dolman [0:28:45]
The board considered the approval of Bid Pack One, covering various construction trades with a total bid amount of $2,167,590. Presenters noted that 24 bids were received across seven packages, and the total amount came in under the initial estimate. The process of 'bid leveling' was explained, ensuring all bids are comparable before selecting the lowest. The pre-qualification (RFQ) process for contractors was also highlighted, ensuring work with reputable firms.

So you level the bids and then you take the lowest bid. Yep.
Are these groups you've worked with before and have a good reputation? We've worked with have they have good reputation.
