a. Question: The SF 1442 in block 12a &13b states no bonds required but in the instructions to bidders it says bid bond to be emailed and hard copy delivered by mail within 3 days of bid.

b. Response: Since this project’s magnitude is between $100,000.00 and $250,000.00, both a performance bond and a payment bond might not be required. A Bid Bond is required for this project. The following is an addition to Section M of the Solicitation:

i. BID GUARANTEE: A bid guarantee is required in an amount not less than 20 percent of the bid price, but shall not exceed $3,000,000.00. Failure to furnish the required bid guarantee in the proper form and amount, by the time set for the opening of bids, will require rejection of the bid in all cases except those listed in FAR 28.101-4, and may be cause for rejection even then. (As previously stated in the Submission of Bids, a scanned PDF is acceptable for e-mail, with original wet signature original due to the Contracting Officer within 3 calendar days after closing).

ii. PERFORMANCE AND/OR PAYMENT BONDS: In accordance with FAR 28.102- 1, offerors/bidders are reminded that any award amount over $35,000 shall require a Payment Bond (or other acceptable protection – see clause FAR 52.228-13), and awards exceeding $150,000 shall require both Payment and Performance Bonds. All bonds are due no later than 10 calendar days after award.
