About this file

This is a Bid Bond Form document for the Township of Ridley, a municipality in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, establishing the terms and conditions required for bidders participating in the township's procurement processes. The form serves as a standard template requiring principals and sureties to guarantee bid performance and contract execution. The bond obligates the principal to withdraw bids only within specified timeframes, execute written contracts within 10 days of award notification, and provide required performance and payment bonds. The document stipulates that failure to comply with these conditions results in the principal owing the township the difference between the bid amount and the actual cost of procuring required materials or services, plus any additional expenses incurred by the township.

The bond form requires completion of penal sum amounts, dates, corporate seals where applicable, and signatures from authorized representatives of both the principal and corporate surety. The document mandates that a Power of Attorney from the surety company be attached and includes certification requirements for corporate principals through the corporation's secretary. For the related Township of Ridley projects, bidders must submit bid bonds equal to 10 percent of their total bid amount, payable to the township, and the successful bidder will be obligated to provide performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract price plus a one-year maintenance bond for 10 percent of the contract price. The bond form aligns with prevailing wage requirements, contractor responsibility certifications, and other compliance standards mandated by Pennsylvania statute and township ordinance.
