About this file

This is a Bid Bond form (Section 00 43 13) for the City of Fort Worth's Small Diameter Water Main Extensions, Replacements & Relocations Contract 2025, designated as City Project No. 106066. The document is a standard construction specification document revised on September 30, 2021, requiring bidders to provide a corporate surety bond as part of their bid submission for water infrastructure work involving small diameter water main extensions, replacements, and relocations throughout the city.

The bid bond must be set at five percent (5%) of the bidder's maximum bid price and serves as a financial guarantee that the winning bidder will execute the contract if awarded. The bond becomes the property of the City without recourse if the principal bidder fails to execute the contract or satisfy all requirements, and will be used to compensate the City for the difference between the original bidder's total bid amount and the next selected bidder's amount. The form requires signatures from both the principal bidder and an authorized corporate surety licensed to do business in Texas, along with witness attestations, addresses, contact information, and attachment of a Power of Attorney for the surety's attorney-in-fact, with specific requirements that the bond date cannot be prior to the contract award date.
