Central Huron Council issues CHCC flooring replacement contract

Central Huron Council has issued the replacement of the rubberized skate guard flooring at the Central Huron Community Complex.

Council received a report titled “CHCC Flooring Award” recommending the contract be awarded to Advantage Sport for a total cost of $164,546, including net applicable HST.

The municipality issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the project, citing the importance of flooring quality and installer experience to maximize the lifespan of the facility flooring.

Two proposals were submitted in response to the RFP from Advantage Sport and Adias Impex Ltd.

According to the report, staff evaluated both submissions using a scoring matrix based on pricing, flooring and material specifications, and relevant project experience. Pricing accounted for 60 per cent of the evaluation, while specifications and experience each accounted for 20 per cent.

Advantage Sport received the highest overall proposal and was recommended by staff for the project award.

The flooring replacement project falls within the municipality’s approved budget for improvements at the community complex.

Financial details presented to council showed a total project budget of $259,800, with $20,616 previously allocated for shower flooring work. Following the flooring award, the municipality projects a remaining surplus of $74,638.

The project supports several priorities identified in Central Huron’s Strategic Plan, including strong governance, improved infrastructure, and enhanced utilization of municipal facilities.
