11-008 Tally

This is a bid tally sheet for the City of Griffin, Georgia documenting the Invitation to Bid (ITB) 11-008 for Tree Pruning and Removal services. The document presents comparative pricing from five vendors: Fitzhugh, Stewart's, Bartlett, Tatum, and one additional vendor, with pricing structured by tree size categories ranging from 15 inches and under to 61 inches through 72 inches in diameter at breast height (DBH). All vendors submitted pricing for both labor and hourly rates. The bid opening date was October 21, 2010. The recommended award was made to a vendor meeting all technical and application specifications, though the tally sheet notes that no award is valid until the evaluation is complete and approved by the Board of Commissioners.

The pricing structure reflects significant variation among bidders across all tree size categories, with costs escalating proportionally to tree diameter. For example, in the 15-inch and under category, prices ranged from $100.00 to $600.00, while the largest category (61-72 inches) ranged from $3,000.00 to $7,483.00 depending on the vendor. The total hourly price for the recommended award was $238.03 with an additional $120.00 rate. The document indicates the evaluation team had not yet completed their full review at the time the tally sheet was prepared, and final approval by the Board of Commissioners was pending before any award could be formally executed.
