BID # 17-216 TERRAZZO FLOOR INSTALLATION
Department:Augusta Regional Airport
Presenter:Herbert Judon
Caption:Request the Augusta Commission accept the bid from Doyle
Dickerson Terrazzo at a cost of $64,960 as approved by the
Augusta Aviation Commission at their August 31, 2017 Meeting.
(Bid Item 17-216)
Background:The existing areas in the main terminal waiting area and at the
TSA checkpoint presently have carpet squares that are well used
and outdated. Airport Staff, through the Procurement Department
solicited bids to replace the worn carpet squares with Terrazzo.
Only one bid from Doyle Dickerson Terrazzo came back
compliant.
Analysis:Due to the short life expectancy of carpet and extensive
maintenance, Terrazzo flooring is the prudent approach when
upgrading area’s with carpet. Maintenance of Terrazzo and overall
appearance is much easier and more appealing.

BID # 17-222 AIRCRAFT BELT LOADER BID/ LEASE PURCHASE
Department:Augusta Regional Airport
Presenter:Herbert Judon
Caption:Request the Augusta Commission accept the bid from Aero
Specialties for $47,944 for the purchase of an Aircraft Belt Loader
as accepted by the Augusta Aviation Commission at their August
31, 2017 Meeting. (Bid 17-222)
Background:An Aircraft Belt loader facilitates the process of loading and
unloading passenger’s luggage and cargo. For a while now, the
Aviation Services Department has been using an old Military
Surplus procured belt loader to support the operation. Ground
handling request for Commercial and Military Aircraft continues
to remain constant and the need for a more reliable and
dependable belt loader is now necessary. The aircraft belt loader
was included in the 2017 budget. The unit will be financed
through GMAC leasing via lease purchase option.
Analysis:In the past, the majority of the aviation ground support equipment
was procured through military surplus and maintained over many
years. The maintenance cost and reliability issues now out weight
the savings of the initial purchase price. Through the procurement
process, an invitation to bid was advertised and two company’s
qualified bids were received. Aero Specialties Inc. provided the
lowest price and satisfied all the requirements stipulated in the bid
specifications. Bid tabulations are attached.

old equipment.
