Notice of Intent to Award a Single Source Procurement for Ticket Counter Modules

Brief Description: This is a request for ticket counter modules to be manufactured, delivered and installed in B1 quad of level 3 in Terminal B (United Airlines). Units were removed when United installed proprietary kiosk units in the place of the ticketing modules, the removed ticketing units were subsequently used for other projects throughout the airport campus (e.g. Terminal C rental cars). United is now removing their proprietary equipment and these ticketing modules are needed to replace gaps created by that removal process.

Estimated Value: $135,998.00

Term (Years): N/A one-time purchase

Vendor: Fish Construction

Justification: The millwork will be installed in the ticket lobby near the existing units, so matching these as closely as possible would be desirable. Given that there are no available spares, getting these units produced promptly will avoid the possibility of having to delay United’s move. Fish Construction supplied the initial 100+ units of counters and the initial quantity of weigh/repack stations for project BP-447, OIA Ticket Lobby Modifications. As the original vendor, Fish already has the approved shop drawings to produce this millwork, as well as, access to the same finish materials used for the original units. This would greatly expedite production and delivery of the millwork and also increase the probability that the units will match existing. Given they already have materials on hand for these counters and weigh stations, the vendor has agreed to slot these units into there December production cycle. Typical millwork lead times would be 12-16 weeks, in addition to the design and procurement process. Specialty millwork is by it’s nature a custom product. Conducting market research without a full design and procurement effort would be nearly impossible. That being said, we do know the 2017 costs for these items. When adjusted for inflation using the Producer Price Index (PPI), we found the vendor’s pricing to be well below inflation-adjusted pricing.
