About this file
This is an instructional document issued by Fort Bend Independent School District (FBISD) in Texas clarifying the submission requirements for Package B of a Comprehensive School Project (CSP) competitive bidding process for Sitework Package 2. The document outlines that bidders must submit two separate packages: Package A containing the contractor's base bid on the Base Bid Form, and Package B containing alternate bids as requested by the District along with any base bid adjustment to the original Package A submission. Bidders who fail to submit alternate pricing will be deemed non-responsive and disqualified. The document specifies that 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, though evaluation of proposed substitutions does not constitute owner acceptance but may be considered during negotiations.
The base bid adjustment mechanism allows bidders to add to or deduct from their original Package A base bid amount, with the District's Purchasing Department calculating the final base bid by combining the Package A submission with the Package B adjustment. Bidders must clearly indicate whether they are adding funds, deducting funds, or making no change to their original base bid price. The instructions emphasize that no deviations from the base bid are acceptable, establishing a clear separation between base pricing and any proposed modifications or substitutions that require formal alternate bid submission.

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
