Brady, Inc. <br />The low bid was submitted by E.P. Brady, Inc. in the amount of $1,584,138.75 and was <br />accompanied by an adequate bid security. A copy of the bid tabulation is enclosed for your <br />information. Our review of the low bid indicated that all items on the proposal were properly <br />filled out and were competitive with all other bidders. <br />Due to the low bid exceeding budget projection, there has been an extensive evaluation of all <br />aspects of the project with E.P. Brady, Inc. to determine if there are any areas of potential cost <br />savings. Several minor items were identified and those which were acceptable have been included <br />in the attached change order No. 1. This change order is recommended for approval concurrently <br />with the contract. The change order causes a reduction of $88,843.50 in the contract, or a total <br />contract amount of $1,495,295.25. <br />Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to <br />contact us. <br />Sincerely, <br />Dale Conger, P. . <br />Project Manager <br />Houston Division <br />DDC/WHP/ic <br />Enclosures <br />888 West Belt Dr. South, Suite 200 • Houston, TX 77042 • (713) 781-8800 • FAX (713) 781-8010 <br />
