The work specified in this bid consists of furnishing all labor, machinery, tools, means of
transportation, supplies, equipment, materials, services necessary for the refurbishment
of the existing walls which sub-divide the halls and meeting rooms, track and steel trolley
replacement (where required) and adjustment for the Miami Beach Convention Center.
The contractor will be completed with the work within one-hundred..eighty (180) calendar
days after the issuance of the notice to proceed. The contractor will provide Performance
and Payment Bonds each in the amount of one-hundred (100%) percent of the contract
price.
Additionally, included in this bid, as a separate item, contractor will provide preventive
maintenance and perfonn the work on an annual basis for a period of five (5) years upon
completion of the repair work. The scope of the preventive maintenance agreement
includes a service program limited to inspection, lubrication adjustments and standard
maintenance. (The cost for this will be $16,000 per year)
The Spectacor Management Group (SMG) requested that their Consultant (Thompson,
Ventulett, Stainback & Associates, Inc) for this Project. submit their expert opinion
regarding the receipt of the one bid. (See Attached letter dated October 3, 20011 They
have stated that because Florida Modemfold was the original supplier of these walls, their
competitors most likely would have had to procure the replacement parts from them.
Hufcor and Horgan's Partition Service, who are in this business, confinned this to be the
case. The Consultant agrees that the bid price of $234,000 is a fair and reasonable price,
however because of a 2.5% price escalation for material shipping that becomes effective
January 1, 2002, the contractor can only hold this price until December 31,2001.
Based on this analysis, the City recommends that the contract be awarded to the lowest
responsive, responsible and only bidder, Florida Modemfold, Inc.

RE: Bid #29-00101
Dear Mr. Ellis.
In reference to our phone conversation of 1213101. we have discussed the pricing with
Modemfold, Inc.
When we originally bid this project, the substantial completion was 1 SO days from time
contract commences. It was our understsnrln,g the contract was to be awarded
i~Ntiately after bids were reviewed.
This being the case. the material prices were based on shipment in 2001. Modemfold,
Inc. bas a 2.5% price escalation for material shipping after 12131/01.
Provided Miami Beach Convention Center can give us a cootract prior to 12131101. we
will waive this price ese-1lttQr and further reduce our lump sum bid to 1234.000.:-
The price for the Service Maintenance AgRement, for one iaspection per year. will be
~1('ed" $16.-'
If you have my fUrther questions please let me know.
Sincerely,

\ The Contractor and the Surety, jointly and severally, bind
themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns to the Owner for the performance of the Construction
Contract, which is incorporated herein by reference.
2 If the Contractor performs the Construction Contract, the Surety
and the Contractor shall have no obligation under this Bond, except
to participate in conferences as provided in Subparagraph 3.\.
3 If there is no Owner Default, the Surety's obligation under this
Bond shall arise after:
3.1 The Owner has notified the Contractor and the Surety at its
address described in Paragraph 10 below that the Owner is
considering declaring a Contractor Default and has requested and
attempted to arrange a conference with the Contractor and the
Surety to be held not later than fifteen days after receipt of such
notice to discuss methods of performing the Construction
Contract. If the Owner, the Contractor and the Surety agree, the
Contractor shall be allowed a reasonable time to perform the
Construction Contract, but such an agreement shall not waive the
Owner's right, if any, subsequently to declare a Contractor
Default; and
3.2 The Owner has declared a Contractor Default and formally
terminated the Contractor's right to complete the contract. Such
Contractor Default shall not be declared earlier than twenty days
after the Contractor and the Surety have received notice as
provided in Sub-paragraph 3. J; and
3.3 The Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract
Price to the Surety in accordance with the terms of the
Construction Contract or to a contractor selected to perform the
Construction Contract in accordance with the terms of the
contract with the Owner.
4 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Paragraph 3, the
Surety shall promptly and at the Surety's expense take one of the
following actions:
4.1 Arrange for the Contractor, with consent of the Owner, to
perform and complete the Construction Contract; or

secured with performance and payment bonds executed by a
qualified surety equivalent to the bonds issued on the

damages as described in Paragraph 6 in excess of the Balance of
the Contract Price incurred by the Owner resulting from the
Contractor's default; or
4.4 Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange for
completion, or obtain a new contractor and with reasonable
promptness under the circumstances:
.\ After investigation, determine the amount for which it may be
liable to the Owner and, as soon as practicable after the
amount is determined, tender payment therefor to the Owner;
or
.2 Deny liability in whole or in part and notifY the Owner citing
reasons therefor.
5 If the Surety does not proceed as provided in Paragraph 4 with
reasonable promptness, the Surety shall be deemed to be in default on
this Bond fifteen days after receipt of an additional written notice
from the Owner to the Surety demanding that the Surety perform its
obligations under this Bond, and the Owner shall be entitled to
enforce any remedy available to the Owner. If the Surety proceeds as
provided in Subparagraph 4.4, and the Owner refuses the payment
tendered or the Surety has denied liability, in whole or in part,

in the Construction Contract, actual damages caused by delayed
performance or n<?n-performance ofthe Contractor.
7 The Surety shall no~ ~~ liable to the Owner or others for obligations

account of any such unrelated obligations. No right of action shall

its heirs, executors, administrators or successors.
8 The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, including changes
of time, to the Construction Contract or to related subcontracts,
