Box 1179 Southold, NY 11971 RE: Oysterponds PLaygrotmd Prqiect In reviewing the bids submitted for the new playground at Oysterponds Community Park, I would 1/kc to ofl~r some insight to the design differences t}om what was specified. In addition, duc to ccrtairt lm~guagc within the bid document, Mintele/PltaySa fe's bid was submitted with the understanding tlmt such items as tools, excavation of tbotings, concrete, and unloading would be furnished by the contractor ,as well a~q the supervision. Below I have broken down my cost for the project: Pl~ Ill, it 2-5-$22,000.00 Cost o£ equipment--S21,330.00 Supervision--S1,000.00 Play Unit 5-12--$36,640.00 Cost of equipment--S35,640.00 Supervision--S1,000.00 Free Standing Itcms--$12,565.00 Cost of f, quipment--$11,565.00 Cost of Supervision--$1,000.00 Misc. llem~--$'10,000.00 Supply oCTools & Excavation of Holes--S7,500.00 Unloadhag Delivery & Supply of Concrete-S2,500.00 I)c8ter Discuunt--($11 ~000.00) The Total Cost is $70,205.00 and thc bid submitted by my compmay was $71,500.00. Deducting the cost of the misc. items, the total is $61,500,00_ This is right in line with the lowest bidder. Comparing the apparent Iow bidder's designs and what was spccified, it becomes evident that the cost difference certai~tIy equates to more than $2.164.00, which Monday, June 30, 2003 3:22 PM ___~_l.a¥Sa!_e 631-754-8429 p,03 is what seperates my cost to the low bidder. Below I have listed tlie most significanl design differences: · _.P_ layJ.~ii~ * Doe~ not have the animated "Flippo root" as specified. Docs not include a one piece spiral slide as specified. · Does not have the aninmted sand/water table (beach theme). · Low bidder substituted an Arch Bridge for the specified Suspension Bridge. · Does not provide Axches on the ends of the bridge. · Has only 1 curved bridge. Specified design calls for 2. ~y I f-it -5d2 · Has an enclosed staircase. Not the animated Fish Cl/mber/Bridgc (beach theme). · Does not have a rock climbing wall as specified. · Does not have view windows at the top of the tube slide as specified. · Multi-section slide in place of a Single Piece Wave Slide. · Overhead climber is not a conthiuos climber as specified and lack~ satiety enclosures. Misc. Items · Fire truck is spring mounted not stationary as specified (safety issue for the 2-5 ages) · Not offering the see saw as specified. The design call for a Mulfi-Pondo, which is an unique apparatus that allows two children to face each wlicn used. l'wo people with vastly different body weights can use it (Father and a 5 yr. oki child) and the design provides a safe environment to play on, Cn short, ! :feet thc cost breakdown along with the design differences clearly indicates that my sub~hitted bid meets all aspects to what the Couanunity and the Town wants for their neighborhood park. I welcome any questions you may have regarding the submitted intbrmation in the letter. I look forward to your response.
