15. BIDS TO REMAIN IRREVOCABLE SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE. All bids shall remain irrevocable and subject to acceptance for sixty (60) days after the date of the bid opening.

16. AWARD OF CONTRACT. Contract award will be made to the responsive and responsible bidder based on the low total base bid or on the low combination of the total base bid and any selected alternate(s), whichever is in the best interests of the County.

If unit pricing is required in the proposal, the extensions and additions will be verified to assure correctness. Award will be based on the revised total if any errors are found. The award shall not be finalized into a contract until the successful Bidder has furnished the necessary surety bonds and insurance documents as required in the Bid/Contract Documents in the manner and form required in said documents. Failure to provide the necessary surety bonds and insurance documents in the required manner and form, permits Pinal to award the contract to the next lowest responsible, responsive Bidder, subject to the same requirements, but does not obligate Pinal to make such an award. Neither the issuance of the Notice of Award nor any submission by the bidder in response thereto obligates Pinal to enter into a contract for the work.
