About this file

This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form issued by Harris County, Texas for a Grease Waste Infrastructure Replacement project at Ben Taub for Harris Health with an estimated budget of $948,500. The form establishes procedures for bidders submitting either a bid bond or a cashier's check as a bid guarantee. Bidders electing to submit a cashier's check must physically deliver it in a sealed envelope referencing the job number to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, TX 77002 before the submission deadline. All bid checks must be made payable to Harris County and submitted in the required amount.

The form authorizes Harris County to return bid checks via regular mail without liability in three scenarios: when a bidder is unsuccessful, when a performance bond and payment bond (if required) have replaced the bid check, or upon contract completion. For sealed bid procurements, the County Clerk may retain bid checks from the three lowest bidders until after contract award and approval, receipt of a performance bond, and receipt of a payment bond if required. Bid checks from all other bidders must be returned within 72 hours of bid opening. For Request for Proposal procurements, the Office of the Purchasing Agent retains all bid checks until after award, contract approval, and receipt of required bonds. The form requires bidders to provide business information including name, address, telephone number, and email, along with details of either the bid bond or cashier's check being submitted.
