SUBJECT:  Building Controls Upgrade  Irregular Bid (CIP #800944) (Short Form) 
Amount of this request:                       $0 
Total estimated project cost:         $10,000,000 
ACTION REQUESTED 
Request Commission authorization for the Executive Director  to  award and execute a
construction contract to the low bidder for an irregular bid outcome with only one bid submitted.
There is no funding associated with this request and the project is currently authorized for
construction with a total estimated cost not to exceed $10,000,000. 
SUMMARY 
This request is asking for authorization to proceed with awarding and executing a construction
contract on an irregular bid as required by Resolution No. 3605 Paragraph 4.2.3.4. Only one bid
was received in response to the construction advertisement which qualifies the bid as irregular.
The Engineer's estimate was $4,693,000 and the bid received was $4,050,937 which represents 
a potential construction cost savings of $642,063.
The  building  control  system  regulates  and  controls  critical  airport  terminal  building
environmental features such as temperature, humidity, and air exchanges. In addition, the
system performs smoke control functions and provides water and gas utility metering. This
project will replace approximately 107 obsolete building control panels that are installed
throughout  the  Seattle-Tacoma  International  Airport. This  project  will  also  improve
communications and data throughput, allowing for improved system performance and future
system expansion.
