Bidder ?????????????????????? Amount SYMS General Contractors Inc.????????????????? $30, 135, 220The Amaila Falls contract was awarded on condition that Motilall would design and construct the road. And the contractor, who was said to have never built a road, but who sought to justify his being granted the contract, agreed to execute the project.The terms of the contract stipulated that he would complete the works within 18 months of being awarded the contract. However, there were delays in the start up, first to allow Motilall to procure the equipment and then to secure a Performance Bond.The government announced the award of the contract to Motilall on March 26, 2010. Synergy Holdings was given the first notice to proceed on October 5, 2010 for some sections of the road, while the green light for the other section through virgin rainforest was given on January 11, last year.The bidders for the contracts were asked to provide their experience in similar large scale projects together with references and credentials, and detail the equipment they own and would require to carry out the project.Synergy Holdings came under the microscope over its experience, or lack thereof, in building roads and its ability to carry out the project. The company’s contract was for the upgrade of approximately 85 kilometres of existing roadway and the design and construction of approximately 110 kilometres of new road.Motilall collected on a significant portion of the contract, before its termination. The government seized his equipment and fined him US$120,000 as liquidated damages for each day he failed to procure the Performance Bond.The roads are a critical component of the Amaila Falls Hydro Electric Project which government is hoping to build.Meanwhile, eight (8) bids were also submitted yesterday under the Ministry of Public Works for the Essequibo Coast Bridge rehabilitation, Better Success/Andrews Essequibo, Region Two.With an engineer’s estimate of $13,706,000 the bids are as follows:????????????????????
