About this file
This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form issued by Harris County, Texas for the Boiler Replacement project at Quentin Mease Health Center for Harris Health, with an estimated budget of $2,115,812. The form establishes the procedures for submitting bid security in the form of either a bid bond or a cashier's check. Bidders must submit their bid security before the due date, with cashier's checks to be physically delivered in a sealed envelope to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, TX 77002, and all checks made payable to Harris County rather than to any individual. The form requires offerors to complete and submit the authorization form through the Bonfire submission system, confirming their election to provide either bid bond or cashier's check security.
The bid check retention policy stipulates that for sealed bids, the County Clerk may retain the bid checks of the three lowest bidders until after contract award, approval, receipt of a performance bond, and receipt of a payment bond if required, with all other bidders' checks returned within seventy-two hours of bid opening. For RFP submissions, the Office of the Purchasing Agent retains all bid checks under the same conditions. Bidders grant Harris County authorization to return bid checks via regular mail without liability to the address provided upon occurrence of any of three conditions: unsuccessful bid status, replacement of the bid check by a performance bond and payment bond if required, or upon contract completion. The form includes designated sections for bidders to document bid bond details including surety name, date, and amount, or cashier's check information including check number, bank, date, and amount.
