About this file
This is an Award Recommendation and Evaluation Synopsis issued by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Procurement Office for RFQ 26*0176 regarding sand relocation services at Muskegon State Park. The solicitation was posted on SIGMA VSS on March 2, 2026, with a response deadline of March 20, 2026. Six bidders submitted proposals for this one-time purchase project. The evaluation process was conducted by the Solicitation Manager, Lisa Crozier-Green, in collaboration with Greg Sherburn, a subject matter expert from the DNR Parks and Recreation Division. Award recommendations were based on a pass/fail evaluation of mandatory requirements including bid package compliance and insurance certification, with the contract awarded to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder.
Alpine Contracting, LLC, located in Newaygo, Michigan, was recommended for award in the amount of $25,150.00 for the Muskegon Sand Relocation project. The evaluation determined that Alpine Contracting and three other bidders (Bob's Asphalt Paving at $34,250.00, Bultsma Construction at $28,000.00, and Hallack Contracting at $35,745.00) met all mandatory requirements and received passing ratings. Two bidders, McCormick Sand and Stein Construction, failed to submit required documentation and were therefore ineligible for price evaluation. The award notice is dated March 23, 2026. Non-awarded bidders may request a debriefing session with the Solicitation Manager to understand the rationale for the award determination.
