Re: SCADA System
Dear Mr. Couzzo:
On May 28, 2002 four bids were received and opened for the referenced project. A summary of
the received bids is as follows:
Acutec, Inc. $295,995
Curry Controls Corporation $338,980
Electron Corp. of S. FL $399,733
Edwards Electric Corp. $590,000
We requested and received qualifications from Acutec, Inc. Review of the information
provided, including contact with various references, did not yield universally positive results.
For this reason, other references through different sources were sought, secured and investigated.
The overall findings continued to be not generally positive.
As a result of this feedback, we requested qualifications from the number two bidder, Curry
Controls Corporation. Our investigation of the supplied references indicated universally positive
results.
The Instructions to Bidders contained within the bid document states, amongst other items, that
"the award of the contract, if it is awarded, will be to the lowest and best responsible bidder
whose qualifications indicate the award will be to the best interest of the Owner..." It is further
stated that "The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all proposals with or without cause, to
waive technical errors and informalities, or to accept the proposal which in his judgement best
serves the Owner."
In our opinion, and based upon our review of qualifications as stated above, award of the
contract to Curry Controls Corporation in lieu of award to Acutec, Inc. will be to the best interest
of the Owner. We recommend award to Curry Control Corporation in the amount of $338,980.
As discussed, it will be important to follow proper notification and posting requirements which
are consistent with Village requirements and State statutes for this project if it is awarded.
