Where there is a conflict between specifications and drawings, the higher standard shall prevail.

1.6 BIDDERS TO INVESTIGATE.

Bidders are required to submit their bids upon the following express conditions which shall apply to and be deemed a part of every bid received.

Bidders must satisfy themselves by personal examination of the site of the work and by such other means as they may wish, as to the actual conditions there existing, the character and requirements of the work, the difficulties attendant upon its execution, and the accuracy of all estimated quantities stated in the Bid.

Any subsurface information furnished is based on an interpretation made at specific locations as indicated and no assurance is given that these conditions are necessarily typical of other locations or that they have remained unchanged since the field data were obtained. Further, no assurance is given that the presence or absence of water and other subsurface conditions at the time of these explorations will be representative of actual conditions at the time of construction. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for any assumptions, deductions, or conclusions they may make or which may be derived from their examination of any available subsurface information.

1.7 INFORMATION NOT GUARANTEED.

All information given on the drawings or in the other contract documents relating to subsurface and other conditions, natural phenomena, existing pipes and other structures is furnished only for the information and convenience of bidders and is not guaranteed.

It is agreed and understood that the Town does not warrant guarantee that the subsurface or other conditions, natural phenomena, existing pipes or other structures encountered during construction will be the same as those indicated on the drawings or in the other contract documents and the bidder or Contractor shall assume all risk with respect to such conditions.

It is agreed further and understood that no bidder or Contractor shall use or be entitled to use any of the information made available to them or obtained in any examination made by them in any manner as a basis of or ground for, any claim or demand against the Town or the Engineer, arising from or by reason of any variance which may exist between the information made available and the actual subsurface or other conditions, natural phenomena, existing pipes or other structures actually encountered during the construction work.

The Contractor shall dig test pits, contact appropriate parties, or do any other necessary work, and at their mailto:finton.sweeney@greenwichct.gov http://www.greenwichct.org/ own expense, to locate subsurface and other structures both shown and not shown on the drawings, in advance to performing work near the structure.

1.8 BLANK FORM FOR BID.

All bids must be upon the blank form for "Bid Sheet", which is given in Section 2, and must state the proposed price of each item of the work, both in words and in figures, and be signed by the bidder with their business address and place of residence.

1.9 TIME LIMITS AND TIME CHARGE.

The Contractors shall commence with the work within ten (10) days after receipt of 'Notice to Proceed' from the Town.

Time is of the essence of this contract and as prosecution of the work will inconvenience property owners, vehicular traffic, and pedestrians and adversely affect business in the area, it is essential that the work be pressed vigorously to completion. Also, the cost to the Town of administration of the contract, including engineering, inspection and supervision of construction, will be increased or decreased as the time occupied in the work is lengthened or shortened and the deprivation to the residents of the Town of the needed improvement herein contracted for will cause damages to the Town, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain.

Therefore, in order to avoid the uncertainties and time consuming effort involved, it is hereby estimated that the reasonably probable, foreseeable damages which will arise in the event of the Contractor's delay are hereby expressed in terms of a time charge which will be made against the Contractor, and dates for completion, suspension and/or commencement of work will be established in accordance with the following provisions.

A time charge of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per day will be made against the Contractor for each and every day (Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays excluded) that the work is in progress beyond two hundred seventy-five (275) days calendar days (no days excluded) after the Contractor has been notified to commence with the work. The amount of time charge will be deducted from the monthly and final payments due the Contractor as these are made. This time charge will continue, except as provided below, until the work is completed and accepted, but not including retainer, maintenance or repair period, if any. The Engineer's decision concerning whether the work has been completed shall be final, as provided in Article 4.4 of this contract.

Each bidder should include in their estimate of the cost of the work, a sum equal to the amount derived by multiplying said time charge by the number of days which they estimate the time charge will apply. This sum shall not appear as a separate item of the bid, but shall be distributed among the various items on which prices are asked on the bid sheet. The time charge will be suspended during the period of any delay that may be caused by the Town, either through change of plan or through ordering suspension of the work for any reason other than failure on the part of the Contractor to comply with the specifications, said suspension must be certified by engineer.

If any delay is caused to the Contractor by specific orders of the Engineer to stop the work (for reasons other than failure on the part of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of the contract documents), such delay will entitle the Contractor to an equivalent extension of time, and the suspension of the time charge only during such an extension of time. When extra or additional work is ordered by the Engineer, the Contractor will be allowed a suspension of the time charge expressed in days and derived by dividing the cost of such additional work by the time charge factor.

The time charge factor is that number derived by dividing the total amount of the contract on which the award is made by the number of days between date work is started and date of completion and acceptance of the repair and alteration, etc., deducting Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays.

1.10 WITHDRAWAL OF BID.

Except as hereinafter in this article otherwise expressly provided, once their bid is submitted and received by the Town for consideration and comparison with other bids similarly submitted, the Bidder agrees that they may not and will not withdraw it within one hundred and twenty (120) days consecutive calendar days after the actual date of opening of Bids.

Upon proper written request and identification, Bids may be withdrawn only as follows

1. At any time prior to the designated time for the opening of bids

2. Provided the bid has not theretofore been accepted by the Town, at any time subsequent to the expiration if the period during which the bidder has agreed not to withdraw their bid.

Unless a bid is withdrawn as provided above, the Bidder agrees that it shall be deemed open for acceptance until the 'agreement' has been executed by both parties thereto or until Town notifies a Bidder in writing that their bid is rejected or that the Town does not intend to accept it, or returns their bid deposit. Notice of acceptance of a bid shall not constitute rejection of any other bid.

1.11 CONTRACT BONDS.

The Bidder whose bid is accepted agrees to furnish the 'contract bonds' in the forms which follow in Section 5, entitled ‘Contract Bonds’, each in the sum of the full amount of the bid, including allowance for contingencies and extra work, and/or contract price as determined by the Engineer, and duly executed and acknowledged by the said Bidder as principle and by a surety company qualified to do business under the laws of the State of Connecticut and satisfactory to the Town, as surety, for the faithful performance of the contract and payment for labor and materials. The premiums for such bonds shall be paid by the Contractor. The ‘Contract Bond’ is only required for contracts exceeding $100,000.

For contracts that require a Performance, Maintenance and Payment Bond, the contractor shall maintain all of the specified required insurance coverage and continue to document the specified required insurance coverage for one (1) year after completion of the work of the contract (or other such time as the contractor or other agreement requires).

The Bidder must provide a letter from the bonding company stating that their company is able to receive performance bonding within one weeks’ time after receipt of award on the Town of Greenwich Performance, Maintenance and Payment Bond Form (enclosed herein) for this project in the total amount of the bid. The letter must be on the bonding company’s letterhead with their name address and telephone number and must be submitted with the bid.

1.12 ABILITY AND EXPERIENCE OF BIDDER.

No award will be made to any Bidder who cannot satisfy the Town that they have sufficient ability and experience in this class of work and sufficient capital and plant to enable them to prosecute and complete the work successfully within the time named, or, where such time is not named, within reasonable period of time as is determined by the Engineer. The Town's decision or judgment on these matters shall be final, conclusive and binding.

The Town may make such investigations as it deems necessary, and the Bidder shall furnish to the Town, under oath if so required, all such information and data for this purpose as the Town may request.

The ability of any Bidder to obtain a performance bond will not be regarded as the sole test of such Bidder's competency or responsibility.

1.13 BIDS.

The Town may reject bids which in its sole judgment are either incomplete, conditional, obscure or not responsive or which contain additions not called for, erasures not properly initialed, alterations or similar irregularities, or the Town may waive such omissions, conditions or irregularities.

1.14 RIGHT TO REJECT OR ACCEPT BIDS.

The Town reserves the right to reject any or all bids with or without reason, or to accept any bid even if it is not the low bid, should the Town deem it to be in the public interest or the interest of the Town to do so. The Town's decision on the qualifications of any bid and/or its decision to accept any bid, or reject any or all bids shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Bidders.

1.15 RIGHT TO ALTER FORM, QUANTITY, OF WORK.

The Town further reserves the right to make alterations in the lines, grade, plan, form and quantity of the work herein contemplated, either before award of contract to the successful Bidder and/or before or after the commencement of the work because of priority restrictions, insufficient funds in appropriations, or other cause.

If such alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute a claim for damage or for anticipated profits on the work dispensed with, or affect the prices bid for the various classes of work remaining. If they increase the amount of work, such increase shall be paid for according to the quantity actually done and at the price or prices bid for the various classes of work, or if not susceptible of classification, the price or prices shall be agreed upon in writing in advance, and in case of failure to so agree, the Contractor shall do the work as aforesaid as extra work.

1.16 EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT.

The Contractor will not be permitted to start any construction work until they have submitted certificates covering all insurance and in such form called for under that article of the 'agreement', titled 'Insurance', and has obtained approval in writing of such certificates from the Town.

1.18 COMPARISON OF BIDS.

Bids will be compared on the basis of the sum of the quantities multiplied by respective unit prices, added to lump-sum prices, all as stated in the 'Bid Sheet'.

In the event that there is a discrepancy in the Bid Sheet between the Lump-Sum or unit prices written in words and figures, the prices written in words shall govern.

The Town agrees to examine and consider each bid submitted in consideration of the Bidder's agreements, as hereinabove set forth in the Bid Sheet.

1.19 BID SECURITY.

Should the Bidder fail to fulfill such agreements, the Bid Bond shall become payable to the Town, as liquidated damages, otherwise, the Bid Bond shall become null and void.

1.20 ITEMS.

The work to be done under this contract has been divided into parts or items to enable each Bidder to bid on the different portions of the work in accordance with their estimate of their cost and so that the actual quantity of work executed under each item may be paid for at the price bid for that particular item.
