About this file

This instruction document provides clarification for the bidding process of the Fort Bend Independent School District (FBISD) CSP Package B submission requirements for the BP048 HVAC - MEP West Zone 3 project in Texas. Package A requires contractors to submit their base bid on the designated Base Bid Form, while Package B requires bidders to submit all alternate bids as requested by the District and any base bid adjustment to their original Package A base bid. Bidders who fail to submit alternate pricing will be disqualified as non-responsive. Deviations are not permitted in the base bid or base bid adjustment and must instead be submitted as Alternate No. 2 on the Deviations Form. The Purchasing Department will calculate the final base bid by adding or deducting the Package B adjustment amount from the Package A base bid.

The base bid adjustment option allows bidders to add to or deduct from their original base bid if they identified an error in their initial submission. Bidders must select whether to add funds, deduct funds, indicate no change, or mark the adjustment as not applicable on the form. Any deviations proposed by the bidder will be evaluated but such evaluation does not constitute the owner's acceptance; however, deviations can be considered during subsequent negotiations. The instruction document emphasizes that no deviations are allowable within the base bid or base bid adjustment amounts, maintaining clear separation between the firm base bid and any proposed changes or alternates.

Clarification for Package B of Fort Bend ISD CSP

Package A – Base Bid and All Documents EXCEPT Alternates and SBE Documents

Package A should include the contractor’s base bid for the project on the Base Bid Form

Package B – Alternates and Base Bid Adjustment (correction)

Package B should include the following on the Alternate Form:

• The bidder’s alternate bids as requested by the District. If a bidder does not submit alternate pricing, they will be disqualified as a non-responsive bidder.

• The bidder’s base bid adjustment to their original base bid submitted in Package A.

• Deviations should not be included in the base bid or base bid adjustment.

Bidder should enter the amount the District may ADD to or DEDUCT from their base bid submitted in Package A. For example, if the bidder submitted a base bid in Package A as $10,000,000 but realized they should have submitted the base bid as $10,500,000, then the bidder would insert an ADD in the Base Bid Adjustment line as $500,000.

The Purchasing Department will calculate Base Bid (Package A) plus/minus Base Bid Adjustment (Package B) to obtain the FINAL Base Bid for the CSP.

• No deviations are allowed in the base bid or base bid adjustment. Any deviation from the Base

• Bid shall be submitted as Alternate No. 2 on the Deviations Form. Evaluation of the proposed substitutes/deviations does not constitute Owner’s acceptance of the substitutes/deviations but can be considered during negotiations
