About this file
This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form for Harris County, Texas, applicable to the repair of bulkhead along G103-24-00 for the Harris County Flood Control District. The form establishes procedures for submitting bid security in the form of either a bid bond or a cashier's check prior to the bid submission deadline. Offerors must select one of two submission methods: submission of a bid bond (Section A) or a cashier's check (Section B). Cashier's checks must be physically delivered in a sealed envelope referencing the Job Number to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002 before the deadline. All bid checks must be payable to Harris County and submitted in the required amount.
The form outlines the retention and return procedures for bid security based on the procurement type and bidder status. For competitive bids, the County Clerk may retain bid checks from the three lowest bidders until after contract award, approval, and receipt of performance and payment bonds, with all other bid checks returned within seventy-two hours of bid opening. For RFPs, the Office of the Purchasing Agent retains all bid checks under the same conditions. The authorization granted on this form permits Harris County to return the bid check via regular mail to the address provided without liability upon occurrence of any of three conditions: unsuccessful bidder status, replacement by required performance and payment bonds, or contract completion. The form requires offeror information including business name, address, contact details, and signature, with corresponding spaces for county clerk or purchasing agent processing documentation.
