Any addenda will be posted on Stadium Manager’s e-Procurement Portal, https://49ers.bonfirehub.com/portal/. Failure to acknowledge addenda may make a bid nonresponsive and not eligible for award of the contract.

EXAMINATION OF SITE AND CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

At its own expense and prior to submitting its Bid, each Bidder is strongly recommended to visit the site of the proposed work and fully acquaint itself with the conditions relating to the construction and labor required so that the Bidder may fully understand the work, including but not limited to difficulties and restrictions attending the execution of the work under the contract. Each Bidder shall carefully examine the Drawings, and shall read the Specifications, Contract, and all other documents referenced herein. Each Bidder shall also determine the local conditions which may in any way affect the performance of the work, including local tax structure, contractors’ licensing requirements, availability of required insurance, the prevailing wages and other relevant cost factors, shall familiarize itself with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and codes affecting the performance of the work, including the cost of permits and licenses required for the work, and shall make such surveys and investigations, including investigations of subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site or where work is to be performed as may be required. Bidders are responsible for consulting the standards referenced in the Contract. The failure or omission of any Bidder to receive or examine any contract documents, forms, instruments, addenda, or other documents, or to visit the site and acquaint itself with conditions there existing shall in no way relieve any Bidder from any obligation with respect to its Bid or to the contract and no relief for error or omission will be given except as required under State law. The submission of a Bid shall be taken as conclusive evidence of compliance with this Article.

INTERPRETATION OF DRAWINGS AND DOCUMENTS

Prospective Bidders unclear as to the true meaning of any part of the Drawings, Specifications or other proposed contract documents may submit to Stadium Manager a written request for interpretation via the clarification process established in the Notice Inviting Bids. The prospective Bidder submitting the request is responsible for timely delivery of the clarification request.

The Stadium Manager will not be responsible for any other explanation or interpretations of the proposed documents. If a prospective Bidder becomes aware of any errors or omissions in any part of the Contract Documents, it is the obligation of the prospective Bidder to promptly bring it to the attention of the Stadium Manager.

All Addenda issued by the Stadium Manager shall be included in the bid and made part of the Contract Documents. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 4104.5, if the Stadium Manager issues an Addendum which includes material changes to the Project less than 72 hours prior to the deadline for submission of bids, the Stadium Manager will extend the deadline for submission of bids. The Stadium Manager may determine, in its sole discretion, whether an Addendum warrants postponement of the bid submission date.

To this end, each Bidder must register with Bonfire in order to access the Stadium Manager’s e-Procurement Portal, https://49ers.bonfirehub.com/portal/ to obtain all Addenda issued by the Stadium Manager, if any, prior to the bid submission deadline. The Bidder shall indicate the Addenda received prior to bidding in the space provided in the Bid Form. Failure to indicate all Addenda may be sufficient cause for rejecting the bid as determined by the Stadium Manager in its sole discretion.

ALTERNATE BIDS

If alternate bid items are called for in the Contract Documents, the time required for completion of the alternate bid items has already been factored into the Contract duration and no additional Contract time will be awarded for any of the alternate bid items. The Stadium Manager may elect to include one or more of the alternate bid items, or to otherwise remove certain work from the Project scope of work.

PREVAILING WAGE COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTATION

The Contract Documents require the successful Bidder to complete and submit various prevailing wage compliance documentation to Stadium Manager at various times during the course of the Project as a condition of payment. Bidders must take cognizance of these requirements and effect strict compliance with the same on behalf of Bidder and its subcontractors of every tier.

DEBARMENT OF CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS

In accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, contractors or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or 1777.7. Any contract on a public works project entered into between a contractor and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any money that is paid to a debarred subcontractor by the Contractor for the Project shall be returned to the Stadium Manager. The Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Project.

PERMIT AND INSPECTION FEE ALLOWANCE

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the Bid Form contains an allowance for the Contractor’s cost of acquiring permits and for construction inspection fees that may be charged to the Contractor by the Agency of Jurisdiction, the allowance is included within the Bid Form to eliminate the need by bidders to research or estimate the costs of permits and construction inspection fees prior to submitting a bid. The allowance is specifically intended to account for the costs of permits and construction inspection fees charged by the local Agency of Jurisdiction only. No other costs payable by Contractor to the Agency of Jurisdiction are included within the allowance.

FILING OF BID PROTESTS

Bidders may file a “protest” of a Bid with the Stadium Manager’s Procurement Lead. In order for a Bidder’s protest to be considered valid, the protest must:

Be filed in writing within seven (7) calendar days after the bid opening date;

Clearly identify the specific irregularity or accusation;

Clearly identify the specific Stadium Manager staff determination or recommendation being protested;

Specify in detail the grounds for protest and the facts supporting the protest; and Include all relevant, supporting documentation with the protest at time of filing.

If the protest does not comply with each of these requirements, the Stadium Manager may reject the protest without further review.

If the protest is timely and complies with the above requirements, the Stadium Manager’s designated Stadium Manager staff member, shall review the protest, any response from the challenged Bidder(s), and all other relevant information. The Stadium Manager will provide a written decision to the protestor.

The procedure and time limits set forth in this Article are mandatory and are the sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a Bid protest. Failure to comply with these procedures shall constitute a failure to exhaust administrative remedies and a waiver of any right to further pursue the Bid protest.

BASIS OF AWARD; BALANCED BID

The Stadium Manager shall award the Contract to the lowest responsible Bidder submitting a responsive Bid. The lowest Bid will be determined on the basis of the Total Bid Price, which is calculated based upon BASE BID ALONE.

The Stadium Manager may reject any Bid which, in its opinion when compared to other Bids received or to the Stadium Manager’s internal estimates, does not accurately reflect the cost to perform the Work. The Stadium Manager may reject as non-responsive any Bid which unevenly weights or allocates costs, including but not limited to overhead and profit to one or more particular bid items.

AWARD PROCESS

Once all Bids are opened and reviewed to determine the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder, the Stadium Manager may award the contract. The apparent successful Bidder should begin to prepare the following documents: (1) the Performance Bond; (2) the Payment Bond; and (3) the required insurance certificates and endorsements. Regardless of whether the Bidder supplies the required documents and certifications in a timely manner, the Contract time will begin to run thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the notification. Once the Stadium Manager receives all of the properly drafted and executed documents and certifications from the Bidder, the Stadium Manager shall issue a Notice to Proceed to that Bidder.

EXECUTION OF CONTRACT

As required herein the Bidder to whom an award is made shall execute the Contract in the amount determined by the Contract Documents. The Stadium Manager may require appropriate evidence that the persons executing the Contract are duly empowered to do so. The Contract and bond forms to be executed by the successful Bidder are included within these Specifications and shall not be detached.
