About this file

This is a Performance Bond form document required by West Whiteland Township, located in Exton, Pennsylvania, for contractors awarded contracts related to the 2026 Road Paving Program. The performance bond must be completed and submitted by the contractor after contract award, not with the initial bid package. The bond serves as a guarantee that the principal contractor will perform all work and obligations specified in the underlying contract with the township. The document establishes a binding obligation between the contractor (Principal), a surety company authorized to conduct business in Pennsylvania, and West Whiteland Township (Obligee). The bond amount, contractor details, surety information, and execution date are to be filled in following contract award.

The performance bond protects West Whiteland Township and ensures that the contractor will fulfill all contractual obligations, including payment of all lawful claims from subcontractors, materialmen, and laborers who perform work or supply materials on the project. The surety's liability is capped at the penal amount stated in the bond, which will be determined based on the final contract award amount. The bond must be signed and witnessed by authorized representatives of both the Principal and Surety, with an attorney-in-fact signature required from the surety. This performance bond is a standard requirement for municipal construction projects and is mandatory before work can commence on the paving program.
