The contract is a fixed lump sum procurement with a completion timeline of 571 calendar days and is funded through FEMA. The estimated contract value ranges from $5 million to $10 million. Bidders must submit a bid bond equal to 5% of the lump sum contract price, and the successful contractor must provide performance and payment bonds equal to the total contract price. The project includes minority and women-owned business enterprise participation goals: 20% for Minority-Owned Business Enterprises (MBE), 10% for Women-Owned Business Enterprises (WBE), and 3% for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses (SDVOB). All bidders and the successful contractor must comply with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, obtain permits from the City of Jersey City Department of Infrastructure, and meet building information modeling and construction staging requirements. Liquidated damages of $500 per calendar day apply for failure to complete work on schedule. The addendum specifies that all bidders must initial the document before submission, and the Port Authority will construe any bid as having annexed the addendum regardless of compliance with this instruction.
