In doing so, the Bidder thereby agrees to indemnify and defend the City from any action arising from the non-disclosure of the information. The failure to so label any information shall constitute a complete waiver of all claims for damages caused by or related to any release of the information.

17. Conflict of Interest and Restrictions: By submitting a Proposal, the Bidder certifies that no amount shall be paid directly or indirectly to an employee or official of the City as wages, compensation, or gifts in exchange for acting as an officer, agent, employee, subcontractor, or consultant to the Bidder in connection with the procurement under this

Proprietary Information: A copy of each Proposal shall be retained for official files and will become public record after the award of a contract unless the Proposal, or specific parts of the Proposal, can be shown to be exempt by law. Each Bidder may clearly label any part of a Proposal as "CONFIDENTIAL." In doing so, the Bidder thereby agrees to indemnify and defend the City for withholding the information from public inspection.

Failure to label information shall constitute a complete waiver of all claims for damages caused by or related to any release of the information.

If a public records request for appropriately-labeled information is received by the City, the City will endeavor to notify the Bidder of the request and delay access to the material until seven (7) working days after the City’s notice.

Where the City waives variances in a Proposal, such waiver does not modify the RFQP requirements or excuse the Bidder from full compliance with the RFQP. Notwithstanding any variance, the City may hold any Bidder to strict compliance with the RFQP.

20. Disqualification of Bidder: If there is a reason to believe that collusion exists among any Bidders, none of the bids of the participants in such collusion will be considered and the City may likewise elect to reject all bids received.

Reasonable grounds for believing that any individual, firm, partnership or corporation is interested in more than one Bid for the work contemplated may cause the rejection of all Bids in which the individual, firm, partnership or corporation is interested. If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the bidders, any or all Bids may be rejected. Bids in which the price is obviously unbalanced may be rejected.

(b) All bidders are put on notice that any collusive agreement fixing the prices to be Bid so as to control or affect the awarding of this Contract is in violation of the competitive bidding requirements of the Public Contract Code and may render void any Contract let under such circumstances.

15. Opening & Award of Contract

Bids will be opened publicly and read aloud at the time and date established in the Request for Qualification and Proposal. Bid Summaries may be made available to Bidders after the Bid Date.

(a) The City reserves the right to accept or reject any and all Bids for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of opening, and to waive any informality or irregularity in any Bid.

No Bid can be withdrawn during that period, except pursuant to Public Contract Code section 5102, et seq.

(b) The City reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, including, without limitation, the right to reject any non-conforming, non-responsive, unbalanced, or conditional bids.

(c) Before a Bid is considered for award, the City may, in addition to the Experience & Qualifications form included in the Bid documents, require a Bidder to submit a statement of facts and detail as to its business, technical organization and financial resources and equipment available and to be used in performing the work. The City expressly reserves the right to reject any Bid if it determines that the business and technical organization, equipment, financial and other resources or other experience of the Bidder (including the bidder’s Subcontractors) is not sufficiently qualified for the work Bid upon and, therefore, justifies such rejection.

CITY HALL WINDOW REPLACEMENT - RETROFIT Page | 16

(d) The award of the Contract, if it is awarded, will be to the lowest responsive responsible Bidder whose Bid complies with the requirements and qualifications set forth herein.

(e) The issuance by the City of a notice to the successful Bidder of the award of the Contract (“Notice of Award”) shall be deemed the Award of Contract.

16. Bid Protests

The lack of a prompt procedure to resolve disputes regarding the bidding process would impair the City’s ability to carry out its purpose of constructing this project in a timely manner.

Therefore, to the maximum extent authorized by law and notwithstanding any other procedures specified in documents referenced herein, all disputes and/or protests regarding the bidding process shall be subject to the following procedure. In submitting a Bid to the City for this project, the Bidder agrees to comply with and to be bound by this procedure:

Any Bid protest must be submitted in writing to the Director of Public Works of the City of Marysville before 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) working day following Bid opening.

(a) The initial protest document must contain a complete statement of the basis for the protest, and all supporting documentation.

(b) The party filing the protest must have actually submitted a Bid for the Work. A Subcontractor of a party submitting a Bid for the Work may not submit a Bid protest. A party may not rely on the Bid protest submitted by another Bidder, but must timely pursue its own protest.

(c) The protest must refer to the specific portion of the Contract Documents which forms the basis for the protest.

(d) The protest must include the name, address and telephone number of the person representing the protesting party.

(e) The party filing the protest must concurrently transmit a copy of the initial protest document and any attached documentation to all other parties with a direct financial interest which may be adversely affected by the outcome of the protest. Such parties shall include all other Bidders who appear to have a reasonable prospect of receiving an award depending upon the outcome of the protest.

(f) The City will give the protested Bidder five (5) working days after the receipt of the protest to submit a written response. The responding Bidder shall transmit the response to the protesting Bidder concurrent with delivery to the City.

(g) The procedure and time limits set forth in this paragraph are mandatory and are the Bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of Bid protest. The Bidder’s failure to comply with these procedures shall constitute a waiver of any right to further pursue the Bid protest, including filing a Government Code Claim or legal proceedings.

(h) If the City determines that a protest is frivolous, the protesting Bidder may be determined to be non-responsible and that Bidder may be determined to be ineligible for future contract awards.

17. Contract Bonds

CITY HALL WINDOW REPLACEMENT - RETROFIT Page | 17

(a) The successful Bidder shall furnish both a Performance Bond and a Payment Bond in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of its Total Bid Price.

(b) These Bonds shall be furnished in the forms enclosed following the Contract and shall be satisfactory to the City and shall be obtained from a responsible corporate surety (or sureties) acceptable to the City, which is admitted by the State of California to act as surety upon bonds and undertakings and which maintains in this State at least one office for the conduct of its business. The surety (or sureties) shall furnish reports as to its financial condition from time to time as requested by the City. The premiums for said Bonds shall be paid by the successful bidder.

(c) These Bonds shall be furnished by companies who are authorized and licensed by the Insurance Commissioner as an “admitted surety insurer.” The surety shall provide the City with the documentation required by Section 995.660 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

(d) If any surety becomes unacceptable to the City or fails to furnish reports as to its financial condition as requested by the City, the Contractor shall promptly furnish such additional security as may be required from time to time to protect the interests of the City and of persons supplying labor or materials in the prosecution of the work contemplated by this Contract.

(e) In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Contract and the terms of the Bonds, the terms of the Contract shall control and the Bonds shall be deemed to be amended thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, the City shall be entitled to exercise all rights granted to it by the Contract in the event of default, without control thereof by the surety, provided that the City gives the surety notice of such default at the time or before the exercise of any such right by the City, and, regardless of the terms of said Bonds, the exercise of any such right by the City shall in no manner affect the liability of the surety under said Bonds.

18. Substitution of Securities for Monies Withheld

Bidders are hereby notified that in accordance with the provisions of Public Contract Code section 22300, securities may be substituted for any monies which the City may withhold pursuant to the terms of the Contract to insure performance.

Failure to do so shall be just cause for annulment of the award and for forfeiture of the Bid Security which shall be retained as liquidated damages, and it is agreed that the bond sum is a fair estimate of the amount of damages that the City will sustain by reason of such failure. The City will promptly determine whether such Contract, Bonds and insurance are as required by the Contract Documents, and upon such determination will forward a fully executed copy of the Contract and a Notice to Proceed with the work to the successful bidder. Signature by both parties constitutes execution of the Contract. In the event of failure of the lowest responsible Bidder to sign and return the Contract with acceptable Bonds and insurance as prescribed herein, the City may award the Contract to the next lowest responsible bidder, and, CITY HALL WINDOW REPLACEMENT - RETROFIT Page | 18 in the event that Bidder fails to sign and return the Contract with acceptable Bonds and insurance, the City may award the Contract to the then next lowest responsible bidder, etc.
