INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

Defined Terms Disputes with respect to the definitions of any terms shall be resolved by Hennessey Engineers, Inc., (“ENGINEER”). The term “Successful Bidder” shall mean the qualified Bidder but not necessarily the lowest Bidder to whom The City of Westland (“OWNER”) (on the basis of OWNER’s evaluation) makes an award.

Copies of Bidding Documents

1. Sets of the Bidding Documents in the number and for the deposit sum, if any, stated in the advertisement or invitation may be obtained from ENGINEER (unless another issuing officer is designated in the advertisement or Invitation to Bid).

2. Complete sets of Bidding Documents shall be used in preparing bids. Every Bidder shall ascertain that every set the Bidder obtains from the OWNER or ENGINEER is complete.

Neither OWNER nor ENGINEER assumes any responsibility for errors or misinterpretations resulting from the use of incomplete sets of the Bidding Documents.

3. OWNER and ENGINEER, in making copies of Bidding Documents available on the above terms, do so only for the purpose of obtaining bids for the work and do not confer a license or grant for any other use of the Bidding Documents by the Bidder.

Qualifications of Bidders To demonstrate qualifications to perform the work, each Bidder must be prepared to submit within five (5) days of OWNER’s or ENGINEER’s request, written evidence of any information deemed necessary by the ENGINEER for bid evaluation, including, but not limited to, financial data, previous experience, evidence of authority to conduct business in the jurisdiction where the project is located or covenant to obtain such qualification prior to award of the contract. Failure to submit any such data within the five (5) day period shall give the OWNER and the ENGINEER the right to finally reject the CONTRACTOR’s bid.

Examination of Contract Documents and Site

1. Before submitting a bid, each Bidder must (a) examine the Contract Documents thoroughly;

(b) visit the site to familiarize itself with local conditions that may, in any way, affect cost, progress or performance of the work; (c) familiarize itself with federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules and regulations that may, in any way, affect cost, progress or performance of the work; and (d) study and carefully correlate Bidder’s observations with the Contract Documents.

2. Request may be made for the identification of those reports of investigations and tests of subsurface and latent physical conditions on the site or otherwise affecting cost, progress or performance of the work, which have been relied upon by ENGINEER in preparing the Contract Documents. OWNER may make copies of such reports available to any Bidder requesting them. Before submitting its bid, each Bidder shall, at its own expense, prepare additional investigations and tests as the Bidder may deem necessary to prepare its bid for performance of the work. The OWNER and ENGINEER make no guarantee as to the accuracy or the completeness of the reports. Nor are they included in the Contract Documents.

3. On request, OWNER will provide each Bidder access to the site to conduct investigations and tests as each Bidder deems necessary for submission of his bid.

4. It is the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR to make whatever arrangements it deems necessary to obtain access to the property that is not included within the project, including, 69030 IB-2 July 2026 but not limited to, land necessary to obtain access to the project, land for storage of material and equipment, etc.

5. The submission of a bid will constitute an incontrovertible representation by the Bidder that it has complied with every requirement of this Article 4 and all other provisions of the Contract Documents and that the Contract Documents are sufficient in scope and detail to indicate and convey understanding of all terms and conditions for performance of the work.

Interpretations All questions relating to the meaning or intent of the Contract Documents shall be submitted to the ENGINEER in writing. Replies, if any, may be issued if ENGINEER decides it to be in the interest of the project, by addenda mailed or delivered to all parties recorded by ENGINEER as having received the Bidding Documents. ENGINEER reserves the right not to answer questions received less than 10 days prior to the date for opening of bids. Only questions answered by formal written addenda will be binding. Oral and other interpretations or clarifications will be without legal effect.

Contract Time The number of days within which, or the date by which, the work is to be completed (the Contract Time) is set forth in the Bid Form and shall be included in the Agreement.

Substitute Material and Equipment The Notice of Award shall be based on the materials and equipment described in the Contract Documents without consideration of possible substitute of “or equal” items.

Subcontractors If the ENGINEER requires the identity of certain SUBCONTRACTORs and other persons and organizations to be submitted to OWNER in advance of the Notice of Award, the Successful Bidder, and any other Bidder so requested shall, within five (5) days after the day of the bid opening, submit to OWNER a list of all SUBCONTRACTORs and other persons and organizations (including those who are to furnish the principal items of material and equipment) proposed for those portions of the work as to which such identification is so required.

Such a list shall be accompanied by an Experience Statement with pertinent information as to similar projects and other evidence of qualifications for each such SUBCONTRACTOR, persons and organization. If OWNER or ENGINEER has any objection to any proposed SUBCONTRACTOR, other person or organization, either may, before giving the Notice of Award, request the Successful Bidder to submit an acceptable substitute without an increase in bid price. If the apparent Successful Bidder declines to make any such substitution, the Contract shall not be awarded to the Successful Bidder. The Successful Bidder’s unwillingness to make such substitution will not constitute grounds for sacrificing its bid security. After giving the Notice of Award, if the OWNER or ENGINEER, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any SUBCONTRACTOR, other person or organization, either may request the Successful Bidder to provide an acceptable substitute without an increase in the contract price. In such a case, neither the OWNER nor the ENGINEER shall be liable for any damages or remedies of either the CONTRACTOR or the SUBCONTRACTOR and other person or organization, of this provision of the Contract prior to the parties being contractually bound.

Bid Form

1. The Bid Form attached hereto; additional copies may be obtained from ENGINEER after payment of the required charge.

2. Bid Forms must be completed in ink or by typewriter but not pencil. The bid price of each item on the form must be stated in words and numerals. In the event of an inconsistency, the words will take precedence. However, if, in the opinion of the ENGINEER, the

69030 IB-3 July 2026 inconsistency is substantial, then the ENGINEER shall have the authority to consider the CONTRACTOR’s bid non-uniform, and void and award the contract to another Bidder without the ENGINEER or OWNER incurring any liability to the rejected Bidder.

3. Bids by corporation must be executed in the corporate name by the president or a vice president (or other corporate officer accompanied by evidence of authority to sign) and the corporate office must be affixed and attested by the secretary or an assistant secretary. The corporate address and state of incorporation shall be shown below the signature.

4. Bids by partnerships must be executed in the partnership name and signed by a partner whose title must appear under the signature. The address of the partnership must be included below the signature of the partner.

5. All names must be type or printed below the signature.

6. The bid shall contain an acknowledgment of receipt of all addenda prepared by the

ENGINEER (the numbers of which shall be filled in on the Bid Form).

7. The address to which communications regarding the bid are to be directed must be included.

Submission of Bids Bids shall be submitted at the time and place indicated in the Invitation to Bid and shall be included in an opaque sealed envelope shall be enclosed in a separate envelope with the notation “BID ENCLOSED” on the face thereof.

Modification and Withdrawal of Bids

1. Bids may be modified or withdrawn by an appropriate document duly executed (in the manner that a bid must be executed) and delivered to the place where bids are to be submitted at any time prior to the opening of bids.

2. If, within 24 hours after bids are opened, any Bidder files a duly-signed written notice with OWNER, and promptly thereafter demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of OWNER that there was a material and substantial mistake in the preparation of his bid, that Bidder may withdraw his bid and the bid security will be returned. Thereafter, that Bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the work.

Opening of Bids Bids will be opened publicly; they will be read aloud and an abstract of the amounts of the base bids and major alternates, if any, will be made available after the opening of bids.

Bids to Remain Open All bids shall remain open for 60 days after the date of the bid opening. However, the OWNER may, in its sole discretion, release any bid and return the bid security prior to that date.

Award of Contract

1. OWNER shall have the right to reject any bid, to waive any and all informalities, to negotiate contract terms with the Successful Bidder, and to disregard all non-conforming, non-responsive or conditional bids. Discrepancies between the indicated sum of any column of figures and the correct sum thereof shall be resolved in favor of the correct sum. However, if, in the opinion of the ENGINEER, the conflict is substantial, then the OWNER shall have the right to consider the CONTRACTOR’s bid non-uniform, void the bid and award the Contract to another Bidder. The ENGINEER or OWNER shall incur no liability to the rejected Bidder.

2. In evaluating bids, the OWNER and ENGINEER shall consider the qualifications of the Bidders, whether or not the bids comply with the prescribed requirements, alternates and unit prices, if requested in the Bid Forms, and any other consideration the OWNER or ENGINEER deems pertinent. OWNER may accept alternates in any order or combination.

69030 IB-4 July 2026

3. The OWNER and ENGINEER may consider the qualifications and experience of SUBCONTRACTORs and other persons and organizations (including those who are to furnish the principal items or material or equipment) proposed for those portions of the work as to which the identity of SUBCONTRACTORs and other persons or organizations must be submitted. Operating costs, maintenance considerations, performance data and guarantee of materials and equipment also may be considered by OWNER and ENGINEER.

4. The OWNER and ENGINEER may conduct such investigations as they deem necessary to assist in the evaluations of any bid and to establish the responsibility, qualifications and financial ability of the Bidders, proposed SUBCONTRACTORs and other persons and organizations to do the work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

5. The OWNER shall have the right to reject the bid of any Bidder who does not pass any such evaluation to OWNER’s and ENGINEER’s satisfaction.

6. If the contract is to be awarded, it will be awarded to the Bidder whose evaluation by OWNER confirms to OWNER that the award will be in the best interests of the project.

7. If the contract is to be awarded, OWNER will give the Successful Bidder a Notice of Award within 60 days after the date of the bid opening.

Signing of the Agreement When OWNER gives a Notice of Award to the Successful Bidder, it will be accompanied by at least five (5) unsigned counterparts of the Agreement and all other Contract Documents. Within 10 days thereafter, CONTRACTOR shall sign and deliver all signed counterparts of the Agreement to the OWNER with all other Contract Documents attached. Within 15 days thereafter, OWNER will deliver all fully signed counterparts to CONTRACTOR. ENGINEER will identify those portions of the Contract Documents not fully signed by OWNER and CONTRACTOR and such identification shall be binding on all parties.

These instructions to bidders are incorporated in the contract and made a part thereof.

The latest anticipated start date, weather permitting, is Tuesday, September 08, 2026, substantially completed by Friday, November 20, 2026, and final completion by Friday, April 30, 2027. The final completion date would allow for all final restoration activities and final payment. All concrete sidewalk and road pavement must be installed prior to the substantial completion date.

3.2 Liquidated Damages. OWNER and CONTRACTOR recognize that time is of the essence of this Agreement and that OWNER will suffer financial loss if the work is not substantially completed within the time specified in paragraph 3.1 above, plus any extensions thereof allowed in accordance Article 12 of the General Conditions. They also recognize the delays, expense and difficulties involved in presiding in a legal or arbitration proceeding and the actual loss suffered by OWNER if the work is not substantially completed on time.

Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof, OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty) CONTRACTOR shall pay OWNER, City of Westland, $1,000 for each day that expires after the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for completion until the work is completed.
