<br />staff specifically reached out to Santa Ana vendors to encourage their participation in
<br />bids. A total of six bids were received. No bids were received from Santa Ana
<br />contractors.
<br />As legally required, a Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the Orange County Register

<br />November 20, 2024 to December 19, 2024. Bids were received electronically via
<br />PlanetBids on December 19, 2024.
<br />One bid protest was received by the third -lowest bidder, Nationwide Contracting
<br />Services, Inc., against the second lowest bidder, Los Angeles Engineering, and the
<br />lowest bidder, Sully -Miller Contracting, regarding their responsiveness to the bid
<br />proposal requirements. Upon review, City staff determined the protest content invalid
<br />and rejected the bid protest on January 14, 2025. Staff deemed the protest immaterial
<br />and recommends awarding the project to the lowest responsible bidder, Sully -Miller
<br />Contracting Company.
