About this file
This document is a standard Bid Bond form for the State of West Virginia, specifically designed for use by the Purchasing Section of the Department of Administration. The form is a legal instrument that provides financial guarantee and assurance to the state that a bidder will enter into a contract if their bid is accepted, or face financial penalties. The blank template allows for completion with specific details about the principal (bidder), surety, and the proposed contract, with spaces to fill in the agency, request purchase order number, and penal sum amount.
The Bid Bond serves as a protective mechanism for the state, ensuring that if a winning bidder fails to honor their bid or refuses to execute the contract, the surety company will be financially responsible. The form requires that the surety company be licensed in West Virginia to transact surety insurance and must attach a power of attorney. Key provisions include the surety's liability being limited to the specified penal sum, and the bond becoming void if the bid is rejected or the principal successfully enters the contract and meets all specified requirements.
