Contracts for Remodeling in General Hospital Building, Medical Center

(25) The President of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends award of the following contracts for remodeling to provide facilities for installation of a remote laboratory computer system in three rooms on the second floor of the General Hospital building at the Medical Center campus, the award in each case being to the low base bidder. 1 General Work Marcus Construction Company, Inc., Chicago $ 7 480 Plumbing Work1 George D.

1 Great Lakes Plumbing and Heating Company, Elk Grove Village, also submitted a bid for Division II — Plumbing Work. After the bids were opened, an investigation by the University's consultant revealed that the firm had not received Addenda Number 1 and 2. A review of the firm's bid calculations substantiated the fact that a bona fide error was made in the preparation of its bid and the error would result in a substantial percentage loss to the contractor if the firm's low bid was accepted by the University. In view of the above, it is, therefore, recommended that Great Lakes Plumbing and Heating Company be permitted to withdraw its bid for Division II — Plumbing Work and that a contract be awarded to the next low bidder as provided in "Regulations. Governing Procurement and Bidding at the University of Illinois."
