About this file

This is a Bid Bond document for the State of Maryland related to contract opportunity BA-681-240-001 for ADA Modifications. The bid bond establishes a financial guarantee between the Principal (bidder), the Surety (bonding company), and the State of Maryland. The Principal must execute contractual documents and provide required bonds within ten (10) days of receiving forms, or within ninety (90) days if no period is specified. The Principal has ninety (90) days from bid acceptance to complete these requirements, or the bid bond obligation becomes void. The document includes provisions for the Principal to submit bids individually, as a partnership, or as a corporate entity, with appropriate signature and seal requirements for each structure.

The bid bond serves as a guarantee that if the Principal fails to execute the required contractual documents and bonds within the specified timeframe, the State may contract with another party to perform the work. In such event, the State may recover from the bond the difference between the Principal's bid amount and the actual contract amount awarded to another contractor, not to exceed the penalty amount of the bond. The surety's obligation is not impaired by extensions of the bid acceptance period up to ninety (90) additional calendar days beyond the original timeframe. The bond document requires approval by the Assistant Attorney General as to form and legal sufficiency and became effective May 1, 2018.
