The bid bond penalty may be expressed in terms of a percentage of the bid price or may be expressed in dollars and cents. A bid bond is not required for bids of $150,000 or less. (FAR 28.102-1)

(b) Performance and Payment Bonds. Within 10 days after award the contractor shall execute and submit to the Contracting Officer two bonds, each with good and sufficient surety or sureties acceptable to the Government, as follows; a Performance Bond (Standard Form

(1) Performance Bond: The penal sum of performance bonds at the time of contract award shall be 100 percent of the original contract price.

(2) Payment Bond: The penal amount of payment bonds at the time of contract award shall be 100 percent of the original contract price.

(c) For construction contracts greater than $30,000 but not greater than $150,000, the Contracting Officer shall select two or more of the following payment protections, giving particular consideration to inclusion of an irrevocable letter of credit as one of the selected alternatives (FAR 28.102-1(b)(1)):

The statement of net worth on the Standard Form 28, Affidavit of Individual Surety, is insufficient and will not be accepted without additional proof of value and ownership.

(2) Bidders are cautioned that individual sureties must provide complete and detailed information in Block 9 of Standard Form 28 concerning other contracts on which they have provided bonds. This information shall include contract number, contract location, amount, and type of bond and telephone number of the involved contracting office.

FAO-0005 Submittals Within 10 calendar days after commencement of work or as otherwise established by the Contracting Officer, all materials and articles requiring approval, as contemplated by the Materials and Workmanship clause, shall be submitted by the contractor.

The submittal process is in place to allow the Government the opportunity to determine whether materials or procedures used by the contractor are in accordance with contract requirements. It is ultimately the Contractor's responsibility via the quality control process to ensure submittal items installed under the contract and work performed on site are in accordance with industry standards and general practices.

(a)The types of submittal requirements specified in this contract may include, but is not limited to; shop drawings, product data, samples, certificates of conformance or compliance, certified test or inspection reports, equipment, materials, and miscellaneous work related submittals for construction. Individual submittal requirements are generally specified in applicable sections for each unit of work in the specifications and/or as a whole in one section in the statement of work.

(b)The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) shall act for the Contracting Officer in the review and acceptance of all submittals. The Contractor shall submit submittals as required by the contract/specifications to the COR for transmittal to the Contracting Officer. Fabrication of any work or purchase or use of any submittals (such as materials for which samples are required or equipment, etc.) shall not take place until acceptance is given by the COR, except at the Contractor's own risk.

(c) The Contractor shall submit all shop drawings and submittals sufficiently in advance (unless otherwise specified in the specifications) of the construction requirements to allow ample time for checking, re-submitting, and re-checking.

(d) Failure of any materials to pass their specified tests shall be sufficient cause for refusal to consider, under this contract, any further samples of the same brand or make of that material. The Government reserves the right to disapprove any material or equipment which has previously proven unsatisfactory in service.

(e) The Contracting Officer’s or designee’s approval or acceptance of submittals is not to be construed as a complete check. Approval or acceptance will not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for any error which may exist, as the Contractor is responsible for the satisfactory construction of all work. The Contractor is responsible for delivering a final product/system that is operational as intended by the contract requirements, regardless of any Government approvals or acceptance of submittals. The Government assumes no liability during the submittal approval/acceptance process. It is the sole responsibility of the Contractor to deliver a properly functioning product or system.

Work hours and work days may be altered only with a 48 hour advance approval of the Contracting Officer.

NOTE: Access to the site will be available during normal working hours except during emergencies. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to familiarize himself, his employees, and his subcontractors of the working hours and conditions in the correctional facility, as working hours may not constitute a full eight hour day. The Government assumes no responsibility to the Contractor, nor to any of his subcontractors, for shorter hours due to institutional emergencies or entry and/or exit of workers necessitated by normal institution routines. The procedures and institutional entrance/exit routines applicable to this project will be explained at both the pre-bid conference/site visit and the pre-construction meeting.
