Instructions to Bidders 00 21 00 - 7 RFP Page 16 of (300) conditional bids, and to reject the bid of any bidder if the City believes that it would not be in the best interest of the project to make an award to that bidder, whether because the bid is not responsive or the bidder is unqualified or of doubtful financial ability or fails to meet any other pertinent standard or criteria established by the City.

c) Successful bidder’s failure to submit the documents required herein, in a proper and timely manner, entitles the City to rescind its award, and to cause bidder’s bid security to be forfeited as provided herein.
Failure to Execute and Deliver Documents
If the bidder to whom the contract is awarded shall, within the period described in
Paragraph 18 of this Document 00 21 00, fails or neglects to execute and deliver all required contract documents and file all required bonds, insurance certificates, and other documents, the City may, in its sole discretion, foreclose on bidder’s deposit surety bond, or deposit bidder’s cashier’s check or certified check for collection, and retain the proceeds thereof as liquidated damages for bidder’s failure to enter into the contract documents. Bidder agrees that calculating damages the City may suffer as a result of bidder’s failure to execute and deliver all required contract documents would be extremely difficult and impractical and that the amount of bidder’s required bid security shall be the agreed and presumed amount of the City’s damages. In addition, upon such failure, the City may determine the next Apparent Low Bidder and proceed accordingly.
