BOND REQUIREMENTS
For construc�on or facility improvement contracts or subcontracts exceeding the Simplified Acquisi�on Threshold, the Federal awarding agency or pass-through en�ty may accept the bonding policy and requirements of the non-Federal en�ty provided that the Federal awarding agency or pass-through en�ty has made a determina�on that the Federal interest is adequately protected. If such a determina�on has not been made, the minimum requirements must be as follows:
(a) A bid guarantee from each bidder equivalent to five percent of the bid price. The “bid guarantee” must consist of a firm commitment such as a bid bond, cer�fied check, or other nego�able instrument accompanying a bid as assurance that the bidder will, upon acceptance of the bid, execute such contractual documents within the �me specified.
(b) A performance bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. A

It is also understood and agreed that if the bidder should withdraw any part or all of their bid within [90] days a�er the bid opening without the writen consent of the Agency, or refuse or be unable to enter into this Contract as provided above, or refuse or be unable to furnish adequate and acceptable Performance and Payment Bonds, or refuse or be unable to furnish adequate and acceptable insurance, as provided above, it shall forfeit its bid guaranty to the extent Agency’s damages occasioned by such withdrawal, or refusal, or inability to enter into a Contract, or provide adequate security thereof.
It is further understood and agreed that to the extent the defaul�ng bidder's bid guaranty shall prove inadequate to fully recompense Agency for the damages occasioned by default, then the bidder agrees to indemnify Agency and pay over to Agency the difference between the bid guarantee and Agency’s total damages so as to make Agency whole.
The bidder understands that any material altera�on of any of the above or any of the material contained herein, other than that requested will render the bid unresponsive.
Performance Guarantee. A Performance Guarantee in the amount of 100% of the Contract value is required by the Agency to ensure faithful performance of the Contract. Either a Performance Bond or an Irrevocable Stand-By Leter of Credit shall be provided by the Contractor and shall remain in full force for the term of the Contract. The successful Bidder shall cer�fy that it will provide the requisite Performance Guarantee to the Agency within ten
(10) business days from Contract execu�on. The Agency requires all Performance Bonds to be provided by a fully qualified surety company acceptable to the Agency and listed as a company currently authorized under 31 C.F.R. part 22 as possessing a Cer�ficate of Authority as described hereunder. Agency may require addi�onal performance bond protec�on when the contract price is increased. The increase in protec�on shall generally equal 100 percent of the increase in contract price. The Agency may secure addi�onal protec�on by direc�ng the Contractor to increase the amount of the exis�ng bond or to obtain an addi�onal bond.
If the Bidder chooses to provide a Leter of Credit as its Performance Guarantee, the Bidder shall furnish with its bid, cer�fica�on that an Irrevocable Stand-By Leter of Credit will be furnished should the Bidder become the successful Contractor. The Bidder shall also provide a statement from the banking ins�tu�on cer�fying that an Irrevocable Stand-By Leter of Credit for the ac�on will be provided if the Contract is awarded to the Bidder.

2. It is in wri�ng and signed by the issuing bank.
3. It conspicuously states that it is an irrevocable, non-transferable, “standby” Leter of Credit.
4. The Agency is iden�fied as the Beneficiary.
5. It is in an amount equal to 100% of the Contract value. This amount must be in U.S. dollars.
6. The effec�ve date of the Leter of Credit is the same as the effec�ve date of the Contract.
7. The expira�on date of the Leter of Credit coincides with the term of the contract.
8. It indicates that it is being issued in order to support the obliga�on of the Contractor to perform under the Contract. It must specifically reference the Contract between the Agency and the Contractor the work s�pulated herein.
The issuing bank’s obliga�on to pay will arise upon the presenta�on of the original Leter of Credit and a cer�ficate and dra� to the issuing bank’s representa�ve at a loca�on and �me to be determined by the par�es. This documenta�on will indicate that the Contractor is in default under the Contract.
