Title
CONSIDER AWARD OF A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO SUPERIOR PAVEMENT MARKINGS, INC. FOR PROJECT NO. 1413-3 CITYWIDE ANNUAL RUBBERIZED SLURRY SEAL - PAVEMENT STRIPING
Body
I. SUMMARY
On July 21, 2020, the City Council approved the plans, specifications and estimates (PS&E) for Project No. 1413-3: Citywide Annual Rubberized Slurry Seal Program, and awarded a Construction Contract to Petrochem Materials Innovations, LLC (PMI) to piggyback on a competitively bid contract between the City of Los Angeles and PMI for the annual slurry seal material purchase and laydown, excluding the pavement striping portion of the project.
Given that the pavement striping was excluded from PMI's contract, the City needs to hire a separate contractor to perform this work. The Invitation for Bids (Number IFB 20-03) for the pavement striping was advertised through the "Our Weekly" publication and the PlanetBids portal from July 9, 2020 to July 16, 2020.
