About this file

This is a Bid Bond form required by the County of Los Alamos Procurement Division for the Foundation Piers for White Rock Substation ReBid project in New Mexico. The bid bond serves as a guarantee that the bidder will enter into a contract with the County if their bid is accepted and will provide performance and payment bonds as specified in the solicitation documents. The bond amount is set at five percent (5%) of the bid amount and must be executed by the principal bidder and a surety authorized to conduct business in New Mexico. The form requires completion of bidder company name, solicitation number, solicitation title, surety company information, and signatures from authorized representatives of both the principal and surety, along with attestation.

The bid bond protects the County of Los Alamos by ensuring that the successful bidder will execute the contract and furnish required bonds for faithful performance and payment of labor and materials. Should the principal fail to enter into the contract or provide the necessary performance bonds, the surety is obligated to pay the County the difference between the bid amount and any higher amount the County must pay to engage another contractor to complete the work. The surety waives notice of any extensions of the County's time to accept the bid, and the bond obligation remains in effect unless the principal either enters into the contract with appropriate bonds or pays the County any cost differential incurred due to re-bidding the project.
