Clemson Statement on West End Zone Project Bid Openings


by -

Clemson, SC--Clemson University construction services opened bids,

December 9, 2004, for construction of Phase I of the West End Zone

Project. Two bids were received, however both bid amounts exceeded

the state-approved construction budget estimate. Within the next

three weeks, Clemson will analyze the bids and the underlying cost

estimates used for the budget and evaluate options.

The options may include awarding the contract to the apparent

low bidder after increasing the project's funding, declining all bids

and soliciting new bids, or separating the construction contract into

a site package and a building package.

According to a statement from Director of Athletics Terry Don

Phillips, the project will remain on schedule. "Regardless of which

option we choose, we have already begun the initial phase of

demolition and we will begin site-work early in the year in order to

stay on schedule for completion in fall 2006."
