PROPOSER has executed the Agreement, furnished the required contract security, and met the other conditions of the Notice of Award, whereupon the
Proposal Security will be returned. If the Successful PROPOSER fails to execute and deliver the Agreement and furnish the required contract security within ten
(10) days after the Notice of Award, OWNER may annul the Notice of Award, and the Proposal Security of that PROPOSER will be forfeited. The Proposal Security of other PROPOSERs whom OWNER believes to have a reasonable chance of receiving the award may be retained by OWNER until the earlier of the seventh day after the Effective Date of the Agreement or the thirty-sixth day after the
PROPOSAL opening, whereupon Proposal Security furnished by such PROPOSERs will be returned. Proposal Security with PROPOSALS which are not competitive will be returned within fourteen (14) days after the PROPOSAL opening.
8. Contract Times
The Contract Times are set forth in the Agreement.
9. Liquidated Damages
Provisions for liquidated damages are set forth in the Agreement.
10. Substitute and "Or-Equal" Items
The Contract, if awarded, will be on the basis of materials and equipment described in the PLANS or specified in the Specifications without consideration of possible substitute or "or-equal" items. Whenever it is indicated in the PLANS or specified in the
Specifications that a substitute or "or-equal" item of material or equipment may be furnished or used by CONTRACTOR if acceptable to ENGINEER, application for such acceptance will not be considered by ENGINEER until after the Effective Date of the
Agreement. The procedure for submission of any such application by CONTRACTOR and consideration by ENGINEER is set forth in Paragraphs 7.04 and 7.05 of the General
Conditions.
11. Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others
11.1. If the General Conditions require the identity of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other persons and organizations (including those who are to furnish the principal items of material and equipment) to be submitted to
OWNER in advance of a specified date prior to the Effective Date of the
Agreement, apparent Successful PROPOSER, and any other PROPOSER so requested, shall submit with the Proposal a list of all such Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other persons and organizations proposed for those portions of the Work for which such identification is required. Such list shall be accompanied by an experience statement with pertinent information regarding similar projects and other evidence of qualification for each such Subcontractor, Supplier, person, or organization if requested by OWNER. An OWNER or
ENGINEER who, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor, Supplier, other person, or organization may, before the
Notice of Award is given, request the apparent Successful PROPOSER to submit an acceptable substitute without an increase in Proposal Price.
If the apparent Successful PROPOSER declines to make any such substitution, OWNER may award the contract to the next lowest PROPOSER that proposes to use acceptable Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other persons and organizations.
Declining to make requested substitutions will not constitute grounds for sacrificing the Proposal Security of any PROPOSER. Any Subcontractor, Supplier, other person, or organization listed and to whom OWNER or ENGINEER does not make written objection prior to the giving of the Notice of Award will be deemed acceptable to OWNER and ENGINEER subject to revocation of such acceptance after the Effective Date of the Agreement as provided in the General Conditions.
11.2. The apparent Successful PROPOSER, prior to the Notice of Award, shall identify in writing to OWNER those portions of the Work that such PROPOSER proposes to subcontract and after the Notice of Award may only subcontract other portions of the Work with OWNER's written consent.
11.3. No CONTRACTOR shall be required to employ any Subcontractor, Supplier, other person, or organization against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable objection.
12. Proposal Form
12.1. The Proposal Form is included with the Proposal Documents; additional copies may be obtained from the Issuing Office(s) described in the Request for
Proposal.
12.2. All blanks on the Proposal Form must be completed by printing or typing in black ink.

2.2 Proposal Selection Criteria:
Award of the Contract resulting from this solicitation shall be under the selection process described herein. A committee appointed by Owner will evaluate Proposals submitted in response to this solicitation. The three (3) divisions of selection criteria (“Divisions”) are as follows
A. Contractor Relevant Experience and References– 30%
B. Cost Proposal – 60%
C. Proposed Schedule – 10%
Each of the Divisions has been assigned an appropriate weight by the Owner, as set forth below.
Following an analysis and evaluation of the Proposals, ranking of the Proposers will be made based upon the selection criteria. In the event of a tie in the rankings, Owner shall break the tie based upon
Owner’s determination of which Proposal will provide the best value to Owner. Subjective judgment on the part of the Owner is implicit in the criteria selection process. The selection process permits placing technical considerations above total price. Therefore, the Owner reserves the right to award to other than the entity with the lowest proposed price. Once the Proposers have been ranked, the Owner will begin contract negotiations with the first ranked Proposer. If the Owner is unable to come to terms with the first ranked Proposer, discussions will be terminated and the Owner will proceed to the next ranked Proposer and repeat the process until a contract agreement is reached or all Proposals are rejected. Once a contract agreement is reached with the Proposer, approval from the City of Cedar
Park City Council is required to authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract.
After opening and ranking, an award may be made on the basis of the initially submitted proposal, without discussion, clarification or modification, or the Owner may discuss with the selected Proposer, offers for cost adjustment and other elements of the Proposal. Any Proposal may be considered unacceptable if the committee determines it fails to provide adequate technical or pricing information in the Proposals as specified in these Instructions to Proposers.
