About this file

This is a Bid Bond Confirmation and Bid Check Return Authorization Form issued by Harris County, Texas for use in connection with a Request for Proposal (RFP) to design, provide, remove, and install playground equipment at Archbishop Fiorenza Park for Harris County Precinct 4. The form establishes the procedures for submitting bid security, either in the form of a bid bond or a cashier's check, with the cashier's check option requiring physical delivery in a sealed envelope to 1111 Fannin, 12th Floor, Houston, TX 77002 prior to the submission deadline. All bid checks must be submitted in the required amount and made payable to Harris County.

The form grants Harris County authorization to return bid checks via regular mail without liability in three circumstances: when the offeror is an unsuccessful bidder, when a performance bond and payment bond (if required) have replaced the bid check, or upon completion of the contract. For RFP submissions, the Office of the Purchasing Agent retains all bid checks until after contract award and approval, receipt of the required performance bond, and receipt of any required payment bond, at which time checks for unsuccessful bidders are returned within seventy-two hours of bid opening. Offerors must complete the form, indicating their bid security submission method and providing business information, signature, and mailing address for check return purposes.
