  • Azteca Enterprises, Inc.
  • Balfour Beatty Construction, LLC

  • RJM Contractors, Inc.

These proposals were reviewed by members of the Police Department, Office of Business Diversity and the Property Management Department and were evaluated for best value based on the criteria set forth in the Request for Proposals.  The selection team recommends award of the construction contract to Balfour Beatty Construction, LLC.
