INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

1. PREPARATION OF BIDS. Unless otherwise directed in the Invitation to Bidders, each Bid shall be submitted, in duplicate, on the bid forms provided or on photocopies of the forms, in conformity with the requirements of the Invitation to Bidders, these instructions, and the instructions printed on the bid form.

All blanks on the bid form shall be completed, typed, or written in ink, and no change shall be made on the bid form or any other of the Contract Documents. All amounts shall be written in figures, with amounts extended and totaled. Minimum unit prices have been established for certain items shown on the bid. See Paragraph 7 of these instructions. If the bidder chooses not to bid on optional items (if any), “No Bid” shall be entered in the bid space. Any Bid may be rejected if it contains any omission, erasure, alteration, addition, irregularity of any kind, or items not called for; if it does not submit prices for each of the items in the bid form; if any of the prices are obviously unbalanced; or if it shall, in any manner, fail to conform to the conditions of the Invitation to bidders and these instructions.

The bidder shall sign its Bid in the signature space. If the Bid is made by a partnership or corporation, the name and address of the partnership or corporation shall be shown, together with the names and addresses of the partners or officers. If the Bid is made by an individual, it must be executed by that person; if made by a partnership, it must be executed by one of the partners (and if by a limited partnership, then executed by the general partner); or if made by a corporation, it must be executed in the corporate name by the president or a vice-president (or other corporate officer accompanied by evidence of authority to sign) and the corporate seal must be affixed and attested by the secretary or assistant secretary of the corporation. The corporate address and state of incorporation must be shown below the signature.

When applicable, evidence of authority to conduct business as an out-of-state corporation in the State of Texas shall be provided in accordance with the paragraph entitled QUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS. State Contractor license number, if any, must also be shown.

The Bid and the Bid Security must be enclosed in a sealed envelope, plainly identified on the outside with the contents (i.e. Bid or Bid Security), the bidder’s name, and the job name and number, and addressed to the Owner as prescribed in the Invitation to Bidders.

2. CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The Contract Documents are complementary and must be read together as a whole; what is called for by one is as binding as if called for by all.

Bidders desiring further information or further interpretation of any part of the Contract Documents are hereby obligated to submit a written request online to the www.Civcast.com system for such information to Engineer not less than 72 hours before the Bid opening. Answers to these requests will be given, in writing, to all bidders as addenda to the Contract, and each addendum will be made a part of the Contract. No explanation or interpretation of the Contract, other than written addenda, shall be binding.

II - 2

Should a bidder find discrepancies in or omissions from the Contract Documents or should the bidder be in doubt as to any meaning, the bidder is hereby obligated to notify Engineer, so a written addendum may be sent to all bidders. It is the responsibility of each bidder to determine if it has received all addenda, complete files of which will be maintained at the Engineer’s office and the office designated to receive the Bids.

Each bidder shall inform itself fully of the construction and labor conditions under which the Work will be performed and shall be presumed to have inspected the Site and to have read and to be thoroughly familiar with the Contract Documents. Failure to do so will not relieve the successful bidder of its obligation to furnish all materials and labor necessary to carry out the provision of the Contract and to complete the Work for the consideration of its Bid.

3. PRE-BID CONFERENCE. A NON-MANDATORY pre-bid conference among Owner, Engineer, prospective bidders, and others will be held to discuss the scope of the Work and to answer questions concerning the Work. No addendum will be issued at this conference, but an addendum will be issued afterwards, if necessary, to answer questions. The NON-MANDATORY pre-bid conference will be held at the time and place shown in the Invitation to bidders.

4. BID SECURITY. Each Bid shall be accompanied by a bid bond or a certified or cashier’s check, acceptable to the Owner, in an amount not less than 5 % of the total amount bid (the “Bid Security”), as a guarantee that the successful bidder will enter into the Contract and execute the Bonds on the forms provided and provide the required insurance certificates within 7 days after the date Contract Documents are received by the Contractor. Bid Securities will be returned to all but the three most qualified, responsible bidders within 5 days after opening of Bids, and the latter’s Bid Securities will be returned after complete execution of the Contract. The surety company providing a bid bond must conform to the same requirements for surety companies providing the performance bonds, maintenance bonds and/or payment bonds described below.

5. BONDS. The successful bidder must furnish a Performance and a Payment Bond, each in the sum of 100 percent of the Contract Price, from a surety company holding a permit from the State of Texas to act as surety. Unless otherwise specified, the cost of proving such Bonds shall be included in the bidders total bid amount. The surety company must have a minimum Best Key Rating of “B+” or better. The surety company, the agency and agent issuing the Bonds must be authorized to issue Bonds in Texas in an amount equal to the total Contract Price and such authorization must be recorded in the files of the Texas Department of Insurance. The Bonds must be executed by a duly appointed representative of the surety company licensed by the State of Texas as a General Lines Agent and such licensing must be recorded in the files of the Texas Department of Insurance. If the surety company does not have such a rating due to the length of time it has existed, the surety company must be eligible to participate in the surety bond guarantee program of the Small Business Administration and must be an approved surety listed in the current U.S. Department of Treasury Circular 570, and must meet all of the rules and regulations of the Treasury Department with respect to performance and payment bonds for federal jobs, including specifically the rules related to underwriting limitation. For contracts over $100,000, the surety must also hold a certificate of authority from the United States Secretary of Treasury to qualify as a surety on obligations permitted or required under federal law, or have obtained reinsurance for any liability in excess of $1,000,000 from a reinsurer that is authorized and admitted as a reinsurer in the State of Texas and is the holder of a certificate of authority from the United States Secretary of Treasury to qualify as a surety or reinsurer on obligations permitted or required under federal law. If bidder’s proposed surety company, agency or agents do not meet the aforementioned requirements, then Owner may refrain from considering the bidder for Contract award and Owner may require bidder to forfeit the Bid Security.

II - 3

6. DELIVERY OF BIDS. It is each bidder’s responsibility to deliver its Bid and Bid Security to the location named in the Invitation to Bidders before the closing time. The fact that a Bid and Bid Security were dispatched will not be considered. The Bid and Bid Security must actually be delivered to be considered.

7. “OR EQUAL” SUBMISSIONS. Where materials or equipment are specified by a trade or brand name, it is not the intention of the Owner to discriminate against an equal product of another manufacturer, but to set a definite standard of quality or performance. In preparing his/her proposal, each bidder is expected to include in his/her base Bid the cost of the item so specified.

However, in certain Technical Specification sections, manufacturers are listed followed by “or equal.” In certain other Technical Specification sections, manufacturers are listed with “or equal” not included. In those items where “or equal” is not included, it is hereby added and understood to be included, even though not specifically stated in each and every Technical Specification. If a Contractor chooses to submit a suggested “or equal” product in lieu of a product by one of the named manufacturers, Owner will evaluate the item to determine if it is an equal. The Contractor is responsible for providing all data required to evaluate an item submitted as a suggested “or equal.” Owner’s decision on whether an unnamed manufacturer is an “equal” is to be final. No claims for additional cost, time delay, etc. will be accepted if an unnamed manufacturer is submitted by Contractor as a suggested “equal” and Owner decides the item is not “equal.”

Contractor must submit list of items to be submitted as a suggested “or equal” at time of bid submission. No additional suggested “or equal” items will be considered after bid opening.

8. MINIMUM AND EXTRA UNIT PRICE ITEMS. If the approximate quantity and a minimum unit price have been established for items as shown in the Bid, the bidder may not bid a unit price less than the minimum value; however, it may bid an amount greater than the minimum unit price.

If no entry is made in the spaces provided, the minimum unit prices shown shall apply. These Extra Unit Price Items are included to facilitate payment for changes and alterations that may be required to complete the Work. The Work, as provided by the Contract Documents, is described in bid items other than Extra Unit Price Items. When additional Work covered by Extra Unit Price Items is performed, payment will be based on the quantity actually constructed and the unit prices entered in the Bid.

9. TIME FOR COMPLETION. Contractor will not be allowed time extensions that are due to

(i) inclement weather (not including Force Majeure); (ii) non-availability of equipment or material, when the principal units of Work and tasks on the critical path are not in progress or are not delayed by the event of delay, interference, disruption, or hindrance; (iii) when at least seven (7) hours of available working time remain out of the working day; (iv) while materials are drying and it is possible for the Contractor to enclose the area and use drying devices; (v) when an event of delay, interference, disruption, or hindrance occurs on a day other than a working day or other day when the Contractor had not originally planned to work; (vi) when an event of delay, interference, disruption, or hindrance occurs after the expiration of the time for completion; (vii) to the extent the Contractor could have anticipated or alleviated the impact of the event of delay, interference, disruption, or hindrance through reasonable efforts; (viii) when events of concurrent delay overlap the claimed delay; and/or (ix) when an extension of time is precluded by any other provision of the Contract Documents.

9A. IDENTIFICATION, SUBSTITUTION OF SUBCONTRACTORS. Every bidder shall submit as part of the bid the names and addresses of the subcontractors with whom the bidder, if awarded the contract, will subcontract for performance of any work for thirty (30) percent or more of the contract amount or to name itself for the work.

II - 4

10. QUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS. The apparent most qualified, responsible bidder shall submit to Owner, within 5 calendar days of notification, either i) a fully completed Contractor’s Statement of Qualification or ii) a written statement that the most recently submitted Contractor’s Statement of Qualification is accurate, which statement shall be considered in the award of the Contract. Failure to accurately complete the Contractor’s Statement of Qualification or to submit the Statement will, at Owner’s option, disqualify the bidder from consideration in the award of the Contract. The form of the Contractor’s Statement of Qualification is available from Engineer. No other form of Statement of Qualification will be acceptable. Evidence of out-of-state corporation to conduct business in the state in which the Work is to be performed, along with state contractor license number, must also be provided.

11. TEXAS HOUSE BILL 1295. Provision of Texas Ethics Commission Form 1295 (“TEC Form 1295”) by Bidders: Effective January 1, 2016, pursuant to Texas Government Code

2252.908 (the “Interested Party Disclosure Act” or the “Act”), the Owner may not award the contract to a bidder unless the bidder has provided to the Owner a completed, signed and notarized TEC Form 1295 which has been assigned a certificate number by the Texas Ethics Commission (the “TEC”). Pursuant to the rules prescribed by the TEC, the TEC Form 1295 must be completed online through the TEC’s website, assigned a certificate number, printed, signed and notarized, and provided to the Owner. The TEC Form 1295 must be submitted with the contractor’s bid. Neither the Owner nor its consultants have the ability to verify the information included in a TEC Form 1295, and neither have an obligation nor undertake responsibility for advising any bidder with respect to the proper completion of the TEC Form 1295.

12. HOUSE BILL 89 IMPLEMENTATION. As required by Chapter 2270, Government Code, Contractor hereby represents and verifies that it (i) does not boycott Israel and will not boycott Israel during the term of this Agreement, (ii) is not engaged in business with Iran, Sudan, or a foreign terrorist organization as defined by Texas Government Code Section 2252.151, and (iii) is not identified on a list of scrutinized companies prepared and maintained under Texas Government Code Sections 2270.0201 or 2252.153, in connection with the prohibition against governmental contracts with companies engaged in business with Iran, Sudan, or a foreign terrorist organization. For purposes of this Agreement, "boycott Israel" has the meaning assigned by Texas Government Code Section 808.001, and "foreign terrorist organization" has the meaning assigned by Texas Government Code Section 2252.151.

13. MODIFICATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS. Bids may be modified or withdrawn by an appropriate document duly executed (in the manner that a Bid must be executed) and delivered to the place where Bids are to be submitted at any time prior to the opening of Bids. If, within twenty-four hours after Bids are opened, any bidder files a duly signed, written notice with Owner and promptly thereafter demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner that there was a material and substantial mistake in the preparation of its Bid, that bidder may withdraw its Bid and the Bid Security will be returned. Thereafter, that bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the Work to be provided under the Contract Documents.

14. AWARD OF CONTRACT. Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, including without limitation the rights to reject any or all nonconforming, non-responsive, unbalanced or conditional Bids and to reject the Bid of any bidder if Owner believes that it would not be in the best interest of the Project to make award to that bidder, whether because the Bid is not responsive or the bidder is unqualified or of doubtful financial ability or fails to meet any other pertinent standard or criteria established by Owner. Owner also reserves the right to waive all informalities and defects in bidding, except time of submitting a Bid. Discrepancies between the multiplication of units of Work and unit prices will be resolved in favor of the unit prices.

II - 5

Discrepancies between the indicated sum of any column of figures and the correct sum thereof will be resolved in favor of the correct sum.

In evaluating Bids, Owner will consider, among other things, the qualifications of bidders, whether or not the Bids comply with the prescribed requirements, and such alternates, unit prices and other data, as may be requested in the Bid Form or prior to the Notice of Award. Alternate bid items will not be considered unless requested in the Bid Form.

Owner may consider the qualifications and experience of subcontractors, suppliers, and other persons and organizations proposed for the Work. Owner also may consider the operating costs, maintenance requirements, performance data and guarantees of major items of materials and equipment proposed for incorporation in the Work.

Owner may conduct such investigations as Owner deems necessary to assist in the evaluation of any Bid and to establish the responsibility, qualifications and financial ability of bidders, proposed subcontractors, suppliers and other persons and organizations to perform and furnish the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, to Owner’s satisfaction.

BY SUBMITTING A BID, EACH BIDDER AGREES TO FULLY AND FOREVER WAIVE AND

RELEASE ANY CLAIM (KNOWN OR UNKNOWN) IT HAS OR MAY HAVE AGAINST THE

OWNER, ENGINEER, DEVELOPER AND THEIR RESPECTIVE ATTORNEYS, EMPLOYEES,

CONSULTANTS, REPRESENTATIVES, AND AGENTS ARISING OUT OF OR IN

CONNECTION WITH THE: (I) ADMINISTRATION, EVALUATION, OR RECOMMENDATION

(OR LACK THEREOF) OF ANY BID; (II) WAIVER OF ANY REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE BID

DOCUMENTS OR THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS; AND (III) ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION

OF ANY BIDS AND AWARD OF THE CONTRACT.

Owner reserves the right to award the Bid, at Owner’s discretion, based on the amount of the Total Base Bid (without including “Extra Unit Price Items” or “alternate” bid items) or on the amount of the Total Amount Bid (including “Extra Unit Price Items” items or “alternate” bid items), or based on any other combination, means or method determined appropriate by Owner.

If the contract is to be awarded, it will be awarded to the responsible bidder whose evaluation by Owner indicates that the award will be most advantageous to the Owner and result in the best and most economical completion of the Work.

If the contract is to be awarded, Owner will give the successful bidder a notice of award within ninety (90) days after the day of the Bid opening. All bidders must honor the Contract Price on their bid form, if the Contract is awarded within the timeframe provided herein. A Notice to Proceed will be issued within a reasonable period after the Contract Documents are fully executed.

Within 7 calendar days of receipt from the Owner of the Notice of Award, the successful bidder must submit to the Engineer the original Bonds and all information or other items necessary to complete the Contract Documents, including the Schedule of Completion and Contractor’s safety program. The successful bidder must return the fully executed Contract Documents to Engineer within 7 calendar days of receipt, or Owner may at its sole discretion disqualify the bid and accept another bid and the bidder shall, at Owner’s option, forfeit its bid security.

15. TAXES, LICENSES AND FEES. Certain taxes, licenses, fees and other similar items are part of the cost of the Work and it shall be Contractor’s responsibility to familiarize itself with these costs and to observe and comply with the Laws and Regulations relating to the same. The prices, II - 6 sums, rates and other charges set forth in the Contractor’s Bid shall cover and include all such costs. Owner is exempt from Texas sales and use taxes pursuant to Texas Tax Code § 151.309 as a political subdivision of the State of Texas. Owner shall provide Contractor, if requested by Contractor in writing, with a completed Texas Sales and Use Tax Exemption Certification as evidence of the applicability of such exemption and Contractor shall not collect Texas sales and use taxes from Owner with respect to this Contract. Contractor and all subcontractors to Contractor shall issue a Texas Sales and Used Tax Exemption Certification with respect to, and shall not pay Texas sales and use taxes on, all purchases of the following items that are exempt from Texas sales and use taxes pursuant to Texas Tax Code § 151.311: (i) tangible personal property that will be incorporated into Owner’s realty; (ii) tangible personal property that is necessary and essential for the performance of this contact and is consumed entirely on the job site; and (iii) taxable services for use in the performance of this Contract that are performed at the job site and are either integral to the performance of this Contract or expressly required to be provided by this Contract. In addition, Contractor and all subcontractors to Contractor (i) shall not include any provision for Texas sales and use taxes with respect to such exempt items in any Bid or the Contract Price, and (ii) shall pass on to the Owner cost savings due to the exempt status of such exempt items. Contractor’s contracts with all subcontractors to Contractor shall include the foregoing provision regarding the exemption from Texas Sales and use taxes. Contractor must pay taxes on items that are not exempt.

16. NUMBER OF SIGNED SETS OF DOCUMENTS. The Contract Documents will be prepared in at least four original sets for signature, one for delivery to the successful bidder.

Owner will furnish the successful bidder six sets of Plans and Technical Specifications free of charge, and additional sets may be obtained from Engineer at Engineer’s reproduction rates. The successful bidder shall provide four signed originals of each of the Bonds to be bound with the Contract Documents.

17. WORKER’S COMPENSATION INSURANCE. See section entitled “INSURANCE” in Special Conditions Part A of the Contract.

18. SOILS REPORT. If a soils investigation has been made for this project, the soils report and log of borings is available for bidder’s information only. The report is not a warranty of subsurface conditions, nor is it a part of the Contract Documents. Bidders are expected to examine the Site and such reports and then decide for themselves the character of the materials to be encountered.

Owner and Engineer disclaim any responsibility for the accuracy, true location and extent of the surface and subsurface investigations that have been prepared by others. Owner and Engineer further disclaim responsibility for interpretation of that data by bidder, i.e. projecting soil-bearing values, rock profiles, soil stability and the presence, level and extent of underground water or underground facilities.

19. LABOR CLASSIFICATION AND MINIMUM WAGE SCALE.

(A) General: Chapter 2258 of the Texas Government Code provides that any political subdivision of the State of Texas shall ascertain the general prevailing wage rate received by the classes of workers employed on projects similar to this project and shall specify in the call for Bids and in the Contract the minimum wage rates which shall be paid for each type of worker. This statute further provides that the Contractor or subcontractors shall pay, as penalty, to Owner Sixty Dollars ($60.00) for each worker employed for each calendar day or part of the day that the worker is paid less than the wage rates stipulated in the Contract. Owner is authorized to withhold from the Contractor the amount of this penalty from any payment due under the Contract.

II - 7

The statute likewise requires that the Contractor and subcontractors keep an accurate record of the names and occupations of all persons employed by them on the construction of the Project and to show the accrual per diem wages paid to each worker. These records are open to the inspection of Owner.

(B) The minimum wage rates that apply to this Contract are specified in the Special Conditions Part A of the Contract. Contractor and subcontractors shall review and ascertain such wage rates and pay at least such minimum rates.

20. SENATE BILL 19 IMPLEMENTATION. As required by Senate Bill 19 of the 87th session of the Texas Legislature, for all contracts in excess of $100,000, Contractor hereby represents and verifies that it does not boycott or discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association.

For purposes of this agreement, “discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association” has the meaning assigned by Senate Bill 19 of the 87th Session of the Texas Legislature.
