Executive Summary

The quotes for the tenant buildout electrical project for Suite 400 range from $27,060 to $31,148, with Summit Peak Electrical Contractors offering the lowest bid and BrightLine Electrical Services, LLC the highest. The average bid is approximately $29,524, with a spread of 15.1% between the lowest and highest quotes. Each contractor has provided a comprehensive breakdown of costs across major line items including panelboard, branch circuit wiring, receptacles, lighting layout, and fire alarm tie-in. All three quotes address the core requirements of the original request, covering the complete electrical buildout for the 4,200 sq ft tenant suite. Each contractor includes the installation of panelboard, branch circuit wiring, receptacles, lighting layout, and fire alarm tie-in. However, none of the quotes specify material brands or quality levels, which could impact the final quality of the installation. VoltPro Electric Co. and BrightLine Electrical Services, LLC have higher unit prices for branch circuit wiring and lighting fixtures compared to Summit Peak Electrical Contractors, which may reflect differences in material quality or labor costs. Summit Peak offers the most competitive pricing across all major categories, but their branch circuit wiring cost is notably lower, which warrants further investigation to ensure it meets quality standards. The key trade-offs between price and value involve evaluating whether the higher costs from VoltPro and BrightLine correlate with better materials or more experienced labor. Summit Peak's lower pricing could be advantageous if they can assure quality and adherence to project timelines. Given the lack of specified warranties and payment terms across all quotes, these should be clarified before finalizing any contract. Summit Peak Electrical Contractors is recommended as they provide the most cost-effective solution while meeting all scope requirements. However, it is crucial to verify their material quality and confirm payment and warranty terms to ensure alignment with project expectations.

Hi, we've reviewed the scope for Suite 400. Quick question — does the fire alarm tie-in need to go through the building's existing panel?
10:15 AM
You
Yes, it needs to connect to the main panel in the utility room on floor 1. I can send you the specs if needed.
