AGENDA ITEM 7.G: BERTH 10 BOLLARDS REPLACEMENT

CONTRACT AWARD


BACKGROUND:


The Authority has approved Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Grant No. G2M63 to support berth rehabilitation efforts, including the replacement of bollards at Berth 10. The scope of work encompasses the removal and replacement of select concrete deck sections and the refurbishment or replacement of mooring hardware at Berth 10.


An invitation to bid was issued via DemandStar on August 22, 2025. Of the six bids received, Tampa Bay Marine, Inc. (TBM) submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid at

$489,915.50. The Engineer of Record, Stantec, has reviewed the submissions and recommends awarding the contract to TBM. Approval is requested for the bid amount plus a contingency of $32,626 to support project execution.


During the project’s bidding process, the contract utilized did not reflect all current Florida Statutes. To address this, a First Amendment was prepared to update the agreement with the applicable statutes.

      1. The Work, including add-alternates if elected by Owner, will be substantially completed within 270 calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run as provided in Paragraph 4.01 of the General Conditions and completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 15.06 of the General Conditions within 45 calendar days after substantial completion.

    2. Liquidated Damages

      1. Contractor and Owner recognize that time is of the essence as stated in Paragraph 4.01 above and that Owner will suffer direct financial and other losses if the Work is not completed within the Contract Times and Milestones are not achieved within the times specified in Paragraph 4.02 above, plus any extensions thereof allowed in accordance with the Contract. The parties also recognize the delays, expense, and difficulties involved in proving in a legal or arbitration proceeding, the actual loss suffered by Owner if the Work is not completed on time. Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof, Owner and Contractor agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty):

        1. Substantial Completion: Contractor shall pay Owner ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,000.00) for each day that expires after the time (as duly adjusted pursuant to the Contract) specified in Paragraph 4.01.A. above for Substantial Completion until the Work is substantially complete.

        2. Completion of Remaining Work: After Substantial Completion, if Contractor shall neglect, refuse, or fail to complete the remaining Work within the Contract Times (as duly adjusted pursuant to the Contract) for completion and readiness for final payment, Contractor shall pay Owner ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,000.00) for each day that expires after such time until the Work is completed and ready for final payment.

        3. Liquidated damages for failing to timely attain Milestones, if any, Substantial Completion and final completion are not additive and will not be imposed concurrently.

      2. The Owner may deduct liquidated damages as described in this section from any unpaid amounts due to Contractor under this Contract.

      3. These amounts represent a reasonable estimate of Owner’s expenses for extended delays and for inspection, engineering services and administrative costs associated with such delay.

      4. Any liquidated damages not deducted or set-off from any unpaid amounts due to Contractor shall be payable to the Owner, at the demand of the Owner, together with interest from the date of the demand and at the maximum allowed interest rate.

Special Damages

  1. Contractor shall reimburse Owner (1) for any fines or penalties imposed on Owner as a direct result of the Contractor’s failure to attain Substantial Completion according to the Contract Times, and (2) for the actual costs reasonably incurred by Owner for engineering, construction observation, inspection, and administrative services needed after the time specified in Paragraph 4.02 for Substantial Completion (as duly adjusted pursuant to the Contract), until the Work is substantially complete.

  2. After Contractor achieves Substantial Completion, if Contractor shall neglect, refuse, or fail to complete the remaining Work within the Contract Times, Contractor shall reimburse Owner for the actual costs reasonably incurred by Owner for engineering, construction

      1. Owner shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Price on the basis of Contractor’s Applications for Payment on or about the first day of each month during performance of the Work as provided in Paragraph 6.02.A.1 below, provided that such Applications for Payment have been submitted in a timely manner and otherwise meet the requirements of the Contract. All such payments will be measured by the Schedule of Values established as provided in the General Conditions. All retainage shall comply with section 255.078, Florida Statutes. All payments shall comply with sections 218.735, Fla. Stat. (“Florida’s Local Government Prompt Payment Act”).

        1. Prior to Substantial Completion, progress payments will be made in an amount equal to the percentage indicated below but, in each case, less the aggregate of payments previously made and less such amounts as Owner may withhold, including but not limited to liquidated damages, in accordance with the Contract

          1. Ninety-five (95) percent of Work completed (with the balance being retainage), and

          2. Ninety-five (95) percent of cost of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work (with the balance being retainage).

      2. Upon Substantial Completion, Owner shall pay an amount sufficient to increase total payments to Contractor to one-hundred (100) percent of the Work completed, less such amounts set off by Owner pursuant to Paragraph 15.01.E of the General Conditions, and less one hundred (100) percent of Engineer’s estimate of the value of Work to be completed or corrected as shown on the punch list of items to be completed or corrected prior to final payment.

      3. Within 5 calendar days following Substantial Completion, the Contractor shall supply a list of items and the estimated costs to complete each item on the list required to render complete, satisfactory, and acceptable final completion to the Owner in accordance with section 255.077, Florida Statutes.

Warranty items may not affect the final payment retainage as provided herein. The Owner is not required to pay or process any payment request for retainage if the Contractor has failed to cooperate with the Owner in the development of the list or failed to perform its contractual responsibilities with regard to the development of a list or if s. 255.078(3), Florida Statutes, applies.

    3. Final Payment

      1. Upon final completion and acceptance of the Work in accordance with Paragraph 15.06 of the General Conditions, Owner shall pay the remainder of the Contract Price as recommended by Engineer as provided in said Paragraph 15.06. Contractor’s acceptance of final payment from Owner shall constitute a full waiver and release.

              Based on our review of the Tampa Bay Marine, their bid appears substantially responsive. The only rtem that I see missing is proof of insurance. They do list their insurance carriers on page 53 of the Qualifications Statement. But I donot see any specific detailed coverage information.

              For being Responsible. TBMhas a fully completed qualifications form with relevant project experience fromtheir past projects, meeting the minimumnumber ofrequired projects. They have also provided the required number ofreferences. Past project experience includes similar berth repair/rehabilitation work wrth twoprojects at Port Tampa and one project at a Kinder Morgan facility (location not specified). Based on the information provided, I would assess TBM as·responsible".

              _December       , 2025 (“Effective Date”), between the Manatee County Port Authority (“Owner”) and Tampa Bay Marine Inc. (“Contractor”)(collectively the “Parties”), and shall amend and supplement that certain Agreement entered into by and between the Parties dated _December 18, 2025_.

              WITNESSETH

              WHEREAS, all capitalized terms used in this First Amendment, which are not otherwise defined in this First Amendment, shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Agreement entered into by and between the Parties dated   December 18, 2025_ (“Agreement”); and

              WHEREAS, the Parties entered into the Agreement for the Contractor to perform a Berth 10 Bollards Replacement project for the Owner; and

              WHEREAS, the Agreement was procured by the Owner pursuant to the Owner’s competitive procurement process in early 2025 and used form documents for the Contract Documents; and

              WHEREAS, several bills were passed by the Florida Legislature in 2025 and took effect in July, 2025, and the Owner has since updated the forms it used for the Contract Documents to account for these bills and make necessary changes; and

              WHEREAS, the Parties wish to amend the Agreement to include the changes that the Owner has made to its forms for the Contract Documents.

              NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and consideration provided in this First Amendment, it is agreed by the Parties that the Agreement is amended as follows:

              1. RheerceiitnalbsyArecfkenreonwclee.dged. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated

              2. Amendment to Section 4.1 of the Agreement. Section 4.1 of the Agreement is amended as follows:

                  1. Contract Times: Days

                    1. The Work, including add-alternates if elected by Owner, will be substantially completed within 270 calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run as provided in Paragraph 4.01 of the General Conditions and completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 15.06 of the General Conditions within 45 calendar days after substantial completion or from the date the final punch-list.

              3. Amendment  to  Subsection  6.2(B)  of  the  Agreement. Subsection 6.2(B) of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced to read as follows:

      2.      Payment upon Substantial Completion shall be in accordance with Paragraph

        15.03 of the General Conditions.

        1. Amendment  to  Subsection  6.2(C)  of  the  Agreement. Subsection 6.2(C) of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced to read as follows:

      3. Within 5 calendar days following Substantial Completion, the Contractor shall supply a list of items and the estimated costs to complete each item on the list required to render complete, satisfactory, and acceptable final completion to the Owner in accordance with section 255.077, Florida Statutes. Within 30 calendar days following substantial completion, Owner must review and revise the list as necessary to reach final completion and provide final Punch List to Contractor. If Owner and Contractor disagree on whether an item belongs on the Punch List, the Owner has the final say on whether the item is included or not. The Owner’s review may be extended by 15 calendar days, upon the Owner’s discretion, if the Contract Price is equal to or more than ten million dollars. Within 20 business days after the Owner and Contractor finalize the list and after receipt of a proper invoice or payment request, the Owner must pay Contractor the remaining balance of the Contract Price, including any remaining retainage withheld by Owner pursuant to section 255.078, Florida Statutes, less an amount equal to 150 percent of the estimated costs to complete the items on the list. Upon completion of all items on the list, the Contractor may submit a payment request for all remaining retainage withheld by the Owner. However, if a good faith dispute exists as to whether one or more items identified on the list have been completed pursuant to the Agreement, upon Owner’s written notice thereof to the Contractor, Owner may continue to withhold an amount not to exceed 150 percent of the estimated total costs to complete such items. Warranty items may not affect the final payment retainage as provided herein. The Owner is not required to pay or process any payment request for retainage if the Contractor has failed to cooperate with the Owner in the development of the list or failed to perform its contractual responsibilities with regard to the development of a list or if s. 255.078(3), Florida Statutes, applies. The failure to include any corrective work or pending items not yet completed on the Punch  List  does  not  alter  the  responsibility  of  Contractor to  complete  all  the construction services purchased pursuant to the Contract Documents.


  1. Creation of Subsection 11.6(K) of the Agreement. Subsection 11.6(K) of the Agreement is created to read as follows:

        1.      The Contractor’s attention is called to section 255.04, Florida Statutes, which requires that on public building contracts, Florida products and labor shall be used wherever price and quality are equal and section 255.20(3), Florida Statutes, which requires lumber, timber, and other forest products produced and manufactures in this state to be used for construction of public structures where their price, fitness, and quality are equal.

  2. Amendment  to  Section  11.03  of  the  General  Conditions  and  Supplementary Conditions. Section 11.03 of the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions is deleted in its entirety and replaced to read as follows:

    11.03 Work Change Directives

    1. A Work Change Directive will not change the Contract Price or the Contract Times but is evidence that the parties expect that the modification ordered or documented by a Work Change Directive will be incorporated in a subsequently issued Change Order, following negotiations by the parties as to the Work Change Directive’s effect, if any, on the Contract Price and Contract Times; or, if negotiations are unsuccessful, by a determination under the terms of the Contract Documents governing adjustments, expressly including Paragraph 11.07 regarding change of Contract Price. Contractor must submit the estimated costs of the Work Change Directive with all substantiating back-up 30 days prior to submission of any Change Proposal and no later than 30 days after the completion of the Work set out in the Work Change Directive. Contractor must submit any Change Proposal seeking an adjustment of the Contract Price or the Contract Times, no later than 60 days after the completion of the Work set out in the Work Change Directive. Owner must submit any Claim seeking an adjustment of the Contract Price or the Contract Times, no later than 90 days after issuance of the Work Change Directive.

    2. Not Used.

  3. Amendment  to  Section  11.07B  of  the  General  Conditions  and  Supplementary Conditions. Section 11.07B of the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions is amended to add subsection 4 and 5 as follows:

    1.   Change Orders require approval as an agenda item of the Manatee County Port Authority – Board of Commissioners. The Board meets on a monthly basis and change proposals are needed 3 weeks in advance of meetings and changes in Contract Price and Contract Times must account for meeting scheduling accordingly.

    2.   An adjustment of the Contract Price will be subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 4.05, concerning delays in Contractor’s progress.

  4. Amendment to Section 11.09B.1. of the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions. Section 11.09B.1. of the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions is deleted in its entirety and replaced to read as follows:

    1. Submittal. Contractor shall submit each Change Proposal to Engineer promptly (but in no event later than 30 days) after the start of the event giving rise thereto, or after such initial decision.

  5. Amendment  to  Section 15.03  of  the  General Conditions  and Supplementary Conditions. Section 15.03 of the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions is deleted in its entirety and replaced to read as follows:

    15.03  Substantial Completion

    1. When Contractor considers the entire Work ready for its intended use Contractor shall notify Owner and Engineer in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete and request that Engineer issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Within 5 calendar days following Substantial Completion, the Contractor shall supply a list of items and the estimated costs to complete each item on the list required to render complete, satisfactory, and acceptable final completion to the Owner in accordance with section 255.077, Florida Statutes.

    2. Promptly after Contractor’s notification, Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If Engineer does not consider the Work substantially complete, Engineer will notify Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefor.

      1. If some or all of the Work has been determined not to be at a point of Substantial Completion and will require re-inspection or re-testing by Engineer, the cost of such re-inspection or re-testing, including the cost of time, travel and living expenses, will be paid by Contractor to Owner. If Contractor does not pay, or the parties are unable to agree as to the amount owed, then Owner may impose a reasonable set-off against payments due under this Article 15.

    3. If Engineer considers the Work substantially complete, Engineer will deliver to Owner a preliminary certificate of Substantial Completion which will fix the date of Substantial Completion. Owner shall have 7 days after receipt of the preliminary certificate during which to make written objection to Engineer as to any provisions of the certificate. If, after considering the objections to the provisions of the preliminary certificate, Engineer concludes that the Work is not substantially complete, Engineer will, within 14 days after submission of the preliminary certificate to Owner, notify Contractor in writing that the Work is not substantially complete, stating the reasons therefor. If Owner does not object to the provisions of the certificate, or if despite consideration of Owner’s objections Engineer concludes that the Work is substantially complete, then Engineer will, within said 14 days, execute and deliver to Owner and Contractor a final certificate of Substantial Completion reflecting such changes from the preliminary certificate as Engineer believes justified after consideration of any objections from Owner.

    4. At the time of receipt of the preliminary certificate of Substantial Completion, Owner and Contractor will confer regarding Owner’s use or occupancy of the Work following Substantial Completion, review the builder’s risk insurance policy with respect to the end of the builder’s risk coverage, and confirm the transition to coverage of the Work under a permanent property insurance policy held by Owner. Unless Owner and Contractor agree otherwise in writing, Owner shall bear responsibility for security, operation, protection of the Work, property insurance, maintenance, heat, and utilities upon Owner’s use or occupancy of the Work.

    5. Owner shall have the right to exclude Contractor from the Site after the date of Substantial Completion subject to allowing Contractor reasonable access to remove its property and complete or correct items on the final punch list.

    6. Engineer and Owner will review the Work and the Contractor-generated punch list to assure all deficiencies are noted on a final punch list document (“Punch List”).  The

      Punch List must include all items required to render the Project complete, satisfactory, and acceptable. If Engineer and Contractor disagree on whether an item belongs on the Punch List, the Engineer has the final say on whether the item is included or not. The Punch List shall be finalized and issued to the Contractor by the Owner within the time frames indicated: (a) For construction estimated to cost less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00), the Punch List must be developed within thirty (30) Days after the Substantial Completion date and delivered to the Contractor five (5) days thereafter; or (b) For construction projects estimated to cost more than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00), the Punch List must be developed within forty-five (45) Days after the Substantial Completion date and delivered to the Contractor five (5) days thereafter. For construction projects involving more than one building or structure or multiple phases, the Punch List must be prepared for each building, structure or phase within thirty (30) Days of the Substantial Completion date of a particular building, structure or phase if it is estimated to cost less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00) or within forty-five (45) Days if it is estimated to cost more than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00).

    7. At the same time the Owner delivers the Punch List, Contractor shall submit a payment application requesting that Owner pay the Contractor the remaining contract balance owed including all retainage previously held by Owner less an amount equal to 150 percent (150%) of the estimated cost to complete the items on the Punch List. Within twenty (20) business days after the delivery of the Punch List to the Contractor, the Owner must pay the Contractor the remaining contract balance owed, that includes all retainage previously withheld by Owner less an amount equal to 150 percent (150%) of the estimated cost to complete the items on the Punch List. Warranty items may not affect the final payment retainage as provided herein. Owner is not required to pay or process any payment request for retainage if the Contractor has failed to cooperate with Owner in the development of the list or failed to perform its contractual responsibilities with regard to the development of a list or if Section 255.078(3), F. S., applies. The failure to include any corrective work or pending items not yet completed on the Punch List does not alter the responsibility of Contractor to complete all the construction services purchased pursuant to the Contract Documents.

    8. Upon completion of the Punch List Work, the Contractor shall certify in writing to the Engineer that all Punch List Work has been completed in accordance with the Contract Documents and request the Engineer to inspect the Work and to approve Punch List completion. If, in the Engineer’s opinion, the Work is not ready for such inspection, the Engineer will so inform the Contractor, giving reasons for such opinion. If the Engineer is satisfied that an inspection is warranted, the Engineer will, within a reasonable time, schedule and conduct inspection(s) of the facility with representatives of the Owner’s user department, the Professional (if any), and the Contractor, for the purpose of formally reviewing the completion of Punch List Work. If the Engineer and the Contractor disagree on whether an item remains incomplete, the Engineer has the final say on whether the item is complete or not. If, upon completion of the inspection(s) the Owner does not consider the Punch List Work complete, the Engineer will notify the Contractor in writing giving specific reasons why the Punch List Work is not complete. Upon completion of all items on the Punch List, the Contractor may submit a payment request for the remaining amount withheld by the Owner. If a good-

      faith dispute exists as to whether one or more items identified on the list have been completed pursuant to the Contract Documents, the Owner may continue to withhold an amount not to exceed one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the total costs to complete such items. This remaining balance of retainage may be requested by the Contractor in its Final Application for payment after Final Acceptance of the Work by Owner. Warranty items may not affect the final payment of retainage pursuant to Section 218.735(7)(f), Florida Statutes.

    9. If the Owner fails to comply with its responsibilities to assist in developing the Punch List within the time frame applicable to the Project (as described above), the Contractor may submit a request for all remaining retainage withheld by the Owner. The Owner need not pay or process any payment request for retainage if Contractor has, in whole or part, failed to cooperate with the Owner in development of the Punch List or failed to perform its contractual responsibilities with regard to development of the Punch List. Additionally, the Owner does not have to pay or release any amounts that are the subject of a good-faith dispute, the subject of a claim brought pursuant to Section 255.05, Florida Statutes, or otherwise the subject of a claim or demand by the Owner or Contractor.


  6. Creation  of  Certificate  of  Substantial  Completion. First Amendment Exhibit A, attached to this First Amendment, is incorporated in the Agreement as the Certificate of Substantial Completion.

  7. Creation of Punch List Form. First Amendment Exhibit B, attached to this First Amendment, is incorporated in the Agreement as the Punch List Form.

  8. Creation of Work Change Directive Form. First Amendment Exhibit C, attached to this First Amendment, is incorporated in the Agreement as the Work Change Directive Form.

  9. Authorization. Each of the Parties covenant to the other party that it has the lawful authority to enter into this First Amendment, that the governing or managing body of each of the Parties has approved this First Amendment, and that the governing or managing body of each of the Parties has authorized execution of this First Amendment in the manner set forth below.

  10. Counterparts. This First Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this First Amendment as of the Effective Date.

Attention: Mr. John D. Glass Jr., PE


Subject: Proposal to Provide CMT Services Berth 10 Mooring Bollard Replacement 300 S Dock St

Palmetto, FL 34221


Dear Mr. Glass:


Ardaman & Associates, Inc. is pleased to provide this proposal for Construction Material Testing services at the above-referenced project. The proposal provides our understanding of the project, a proposed scope of services, and our estimate of costs for the CMT services


Project Information


Project information was provided with an email correspondence on November IO, 2025. This information consisted of a brief description of the subject project and a set of Construction drawings. Based on our review of the submitted drawings, the proposed developments include the installation of five new l 00-ton single bitt bollards to replace the old ones. As per the client's request, we prepared this CMT proposal for one bollard installation, which will be approximately the same cost as constructing each bollard. Unless they are able to be constructed concurrently.


Ardaman & Associates has prepared this proposal for the testing and inspection services associated with soils and concrete sampling/ testing.


Proposed Scope of Services


The scope of services outlined in this proposal includes CMT services. Ardaman is staffed to handle these elements with local, in-house personnel. The following is a summary of our anticipated services for the project.

cylinders for concrete or 3-inch by 6-inch grout prisms for every 50 cubic yards of concrete or each day's placement. The collected samples will be used for verification of compressive strength.

Estimated Fees

Ardaman proposes to perform the above-referenced scope of services on a time and material basis. The project will be invoiced based on actual quantities performed in accordance with the unit rates included on the attached fee estimates. Based on our understanding of the project and the assumed construction schedule, and our experience with providing similar services for previous similar facilities, we propose a budget of $2,922 be established for one bollard installation. And the total cost for five new 100-ton single bitt bollards installation will be around $14,610, unless they are able to be constructed concurrently. The costs of one bollard installation are not to exceed $2,922.00 without prior authorization.


Please note that the amount of testing and/or monitoring that will ultimately be performed will be detennined by the contractor's approach to the project, which will affect the services (e.g., frequency of testing and/or the number of tests) performed during each site visit. The actual cost of the testing/inspection services will be a function of the quantities of work performed, according to the unit rates presented on the

attached fee schedule
