About this file

This instruction document pertains to the submission requirements for Fort Bend Independent School District (FBISD) Sitework Package 1, specifically detailing the procedures for Package B submissions in a two-package bidding structure. The document clarifies that Package A should contain the contractor's base bid on the designated Base Bid Form, while Package B requires submission of alternate bids as requested by the District and a base bid adjustment (correction) on the Alternate Form. Bidders must submit alternate pricing or face disqualification as non-responsive bidders. The document does not specify response dates, site visits, or bidder conference information.

Package B allows bidders to submit a base bid adjustment to correct their original Package A submission by specifying an amount to be added to or deducted from the initial base bid. The Purchasing Department will calculate the final base bid by combining the Package A base bid with any Package B adjustment. The document explicitly prohibits deviations in the base bid or base bid adjustment; any deviations must be submitted as Alternate No. 2 on the Deviations Form. The instruction provides specific guidance for form completion, allowing bidders to select "Add," "Deduct," "No change," or "Not Applicable (NA)" options for their base bid adjustment. The evaluation of proposed substitutions or deviations does not constitute acceptance by the Owner but may be considered during negotiations.

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
