Kevin Theissen, Travaux’s Senior Project Manager, stated that Travaux reduced the
scope of the work, based on guidance from the Construction and Development
Committee, in an attempt to get additional bidders and that he also reached out to
additional contractors including De Arteaga Incorporated. Gabe DeVougas, Section 3
Coordinator, informed the Board that Oostburg Concrete Products is contracting six
percent of its contract to Heritage Ready Mix, a certified MBE business.
President Pérez recommended that Mr. DeVougas send the Section 3 guide “Doing

from bidders.
