RE: Prior Lake City Hall Boiler Replacement Project
Please note the following relative to the bids:
1. As you know, bids were received for the project on Thursday, May 20, 2021. A total of 5
bids were received for the project. The low base bid, submitted by NAC, was $154,000.00.
The next high bid was only 3% higher, suggesting a straightforward and tight bidding
situation for this size of project.
2. I spoke with Josh, with NAC the next morning. He has reviewed his bid and the anticipated
schedule and indicated he is comfortable moving forward with both.
3. Our firm has worked with NAC in the past, as has the mechanical engineer from Paulson and
Clark Engineering, and we have had a good experience with the company.
4. In short, I have no trouble recommending NAC to perform the work.
5. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Deb Brandwick, Principal
