About this file
This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form for Harris County, Texas, applicable to the Dinner Creek Stormwater Detention Basin - Phase 1 project for the Harris County Flood Control District with an estimated budget of $35,656,303. Bidders must submit either a bid bond or a cashier's check as a form of bid security, with cashier's checks requiring physical delivery in a sealed envelope to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, TX 77002 before the bid due date. The form requires completion and submission through the Bonfire procurement platform, with all checks payable to Harris County rather than individuals.
Bid security checks are handled differently based on the procurement type. For competitive bids, the County Clerk may retain the bid checks of the three lowest bidders until after contract award, approval, performance bond receipt, and payment bond receipt if required, with all other bidders' checks returned within seventy-two hours of bid opening. For RFPs, the Office of the Purchasing Agent retains all bid checks under the same conditions. Bidders must complete either Section A (for bid bonds, specifying bond number, surety name, date, and amount) or Section B (for cashier's checks, specifying check number, bank, date, and amount) along with business name, address, contact information, and mailing address. Authorization is granted for Harris County to return bid checks via regular mail to the provided address upon circumstances of unsuccessful bidder status, replacement by performance and payment bonds, or contract completion, with no liability to the county.
