About this file

This document is a Bid Bond Preparation Instructions template issued by the State of West Virginia's Department of Administration for use in state procurement processes. The instructions provide standardized formatting and content requirements for bid bonds that must accompany proposals submitted in response to Requests for Quotation (RFQ) or Requests for Proposal (RFP) issued by West Virginia state agencies. The bid bond serves as a financial guarantee that the bidder will execute a contract if their bid is accepted and will furnish any required bonds, insurance, and performance as specified in the bid documents.

The bid bond must be executed by both the principal (the bidding company or individual) and a surety company licensed to conduct surety insurance business in West Virginia. The minimum acceptable bid bond amount is five percent of the total bid amount, which may be stated either as a percentage or as a specific dollar figure. The surety must affix its corporate seal and provide a dated power of attorney document with its seal affixed to accompany the bond. The bond becomes null and void if the bid is rejected or if the bid is accepted and the principal enters into the contract while furnishing all required bonds, insurance, and performance obligations. The surety's liability is expressly limited to the penal amount stated in the bond, and the surety waives notice of any extensions of time granted for bid acceptance.
