About this file
This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form issued by Harris County, Texas, for use in the procurement process related to the Sunset Heights Urgent Care Construction and Buildout project for Harris Health, with an estimated budget of $10,481,414. Offerors may submit either a bid bond or a cashier's check as a bid guarantee; if electing to provide a cashier's check, it must be physically delivered in a sealed envelope referencing the Job Number to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, TX 77002 before the deadline. The bid check must equal the required amount and be made payable to Harris County. The form requires offerors to complete and submit detailed information including bid bond or cashier's check number, surety name or bank information, amount, date, business address, mailing address, and contact information.
Bid checks submitted with a bid will be retained by the County Clerk for the three lowest bidders until after contract award, approval, and receipt of performance and payment bonds, 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. Offerors authorize Harris County to return bid checks via regular mail without liability upon occurrence of any of three conditions: if the offeror is unsuccessful, if performance and payment bonds have replaced the bid check, or upon contract completion. The form was revised on March 24, 2021, and includes designated sections for county clerk and purchasing agent use to record check mailing dates and departmental ledger information.
