00 2000 - 1 Instructions to Bidders

SECTION 00 20 00 - INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.01 SUBMISSION OF BIDS AND BID OPENING:

A. In accordance with ORS 279C.365, bids will be received by the District, and will be opened and read at the time and place set forth in the Bid Document. Bidders, or their representative, and other interested persons may be present at the opening of bids.

B. The Owner will accept only those bids submitted via mail or delivery to address indicated on

Bid Form. Electronic (email) submissions will not be accepted.

C. The Bidder shall assume full responsibility for timely submission of bids.

1.02 BIDDING DOCUMENTS:

A. Bidding Documents are those provided by the Owner, including attachments and any

Addenda issued prior to receipt of bids. All requirements and obligations of the Bidding

Documents are hereby incorporated by reference into the Contract Documents and are binding on the Successful Bidder upon award of the Contract.

B. Bidders shall use complete sets of Bidding Documents in preparing Bids. The Owner, Project Manager, and the Architect assume no responsibility for errors or misinterpretations resulting from the use of incomplete sets of Bidding Documents.

C. The Owner in making copies of the Bidding Documents available on the above terms does so only for the purpose of obtaining Bids on the Work and does not confer a license or grant for any other use.

1.03. DEFINITIONS:

A. ADDENDA: Written or graphic instructions issued prior to Bid due date which modify or interpret the Bidding Documents including drawings and specifications that add, delete, correct or clarify the scope of work. Addenda will become part of the Contract documents when a construction contract is executed.

B. BID DOCUMENTS: Include the Advertisement for Bids, Instructions to Bidders, Specifications, Drawings, Addenda issued prior to the receipt of bids, the Bid Proposal, and the proposed Contract Documents.

C. BASE BID: The Base Bid is the sum stated in the Bid for which the Bidder offers to perform all the Work shown and described in the Bidding Documents as a lump sum bid, to which

Work may be added or deducted for sums stated in Alternate Bids, if any.

1.04. QUALIFICATIONS OF BIDDERS:

A. Before the Bid is considered for award, the Owner reserves the right to request the Bidder to complete within seventy-two (72) hours a bidder qualification form and/or a current financial statement prepared by a Certified Public Accountant. Bidder qualifications to be listed upon the Bidder Qualification Form will include as a minimum, a listing of Bidder's previous contracts of a nature similar with technical complexity, operations and size to that being bid upon; a listing of Bidder's staff to include managerial, technical, and laboring positions; summary of Bidder's plan and equipment available for use in the execution of the

Contract; and the listing of the projects to which Bidder is currently obligated or anticipates being obligated during this Work.

1. The Owner reserves the right to reject the Bid of any Bidder who fails to furnish promptly and properly all the information called for as previously mentioned when notified to do so.

00 2000 - 2

B. Pursuant to ORS 279C.375, a Bidder may be deemed unqualified to perform the Contract, if any of the following conditions appear:

1. Bidder does not have sufficient capability to undertake the obligations of the

Contract. A determination in this respect will be made when Owner, upon review of the probable cash flow needs of Contractor for this particular Contract (to include payroll, cost of material and supplies, equipment rental costs, and any other direct or incidental costs of the Contract), determines that Contractor does not have sufficient financial resources to enable it to continue to satisfy its financial obligations under the Contract. Owner will consider all other pertinent financial data required by this clause and submitted by the Contractor. A determination that

Bidder is unqualified will not be made under this paragraph unless Owner has determined that Bidder cannot meet its financial obligations under the Contract after having considered all sources of income available to the Bidder.

2. Bidder does not have sufficient staff, equipment, or plant available to perform the

Contract. Owner's determination in this matter will be based upon that represented by bidder in the bid form and in subsequent qualification information requested by the Owner upon receipt of bids. Additionally, Bidder does not have sufficient prior experience (or an acceptable substitute thereof, as described below) with projects of a similar nature in technical, managerial, and financial requirements to that in the present Contract being bid.

a. Experience does not necessarily mean that the Bidder is an established

Contractor in the exact technical area for which the Bid is submitted. In addition to such established Contractors, newly established Contractors will be considered qualified if they have shown on the Bidder Qualification Form that they are staffed with sufficient technical, managerial, and financial personnel with prior experience in the nature of construction for which the

Bids are invited, that Bidder may adequately foresee and appreciate problems of such construction.

3. Bidder has a consistent history of unsatisfactory performance of contracts of this or similar nature, regardless of whether such contracts existed between Owner and the Contractor, or other parties and the Contractor.

a. A determination of this nature will not be made unless Owner, after review and verification of Contractor's previous work experience, determines that

Contractor's consistent, unsatisfactory performance has resulted from

Contractor's failure rather than a failure to perform by the other party.

Owner will give Contractor an opportunity to appeal such final determination. Contract disputes, which are pending resolution before any duly authorized judicial or administrative body, will not be considered in reaching this determination.

b. A determination of "consistent" failure to perform will not be made unless the Owner is satisfied, after review of Bidder's prior experience that

Contractor has repeatedly failed to satisfy its obligations under past contracts. For purposes of this clause, "consistent" will not be construed to mean in every contract, nor will it be construed to include "isolated instances" of failure to perform. Rather it means such evidence of recurring past nonperformance by the Contractor that Owner cannot safely assume

00 2000 - 3 satisfactory performance of the Contract by the Contractor upon execution of the Contract.

c. In reaching any determination of this nature, Owner may consider statements of other parties to the prior unperformed Contracts. However, in each instance, Owner will advise Contractor of such other statements considered before a determination that the Bidder is not qualified, is made by Owner.

4. Bidder has submitted unrealistic unit prices as determined by other bidders’ unit prices for this project.

5. Any information voluntarily submitted by a bidder or prospective bidder pursuant to an investigation may be deemed a trade secret pursuant to ORS 192-501 to

192.505 if requested by the person(s) submitting the information.

C. Bidder's representations concerning its qualifications will be construed as a covenant under the Contract. Should it appear that Bidder has made a material misrepresentation, Owner shall have the right to terminate the Contract for Contractor's breach, and Owner may then pursue such remedies as exist elsewhere under this Contract, or as otherwise are provided at law or equity.

D. Any determination that a Bidder is unqualified will be made by the Owner. Such determination will be made in writing and identify the reasons why the Bidder is deemed unqualified. A letter will be sent to the Bidder deemed unqualified, stating the reasons for such determination, and the Bidder's right to request a review of this determination by appeal pursuant to ORS 279C.450.

1.05. BIDDER'S REPRESENTATIONS: Each Bidder by submitting its Bid represents that:

A. I/We have read and understand the Bidding Documents and its Bid is made in accordance therewith; and Bidder agrees to be bound by the terms and requirements set forth in the

Bidding and Contract Documents;

B. I/We have visited the site, have familiarized ourselves with the local conditions under which the Work is to be performed in accordance with Paragraph 10 herein, and have correlated our observations with the requirements of the proposed Contract Documents;

C. Bid is based upon the materials, systems and equipment required by the Bidding

Documents without exception; and

D. I/We have the capability, in all respects, and the moral and business integrity, reliability, technical ability, financial resources, plant, management, superintendence, equipment and materials which will assure effective and efficient good faith performance in full compliance with the Contract Documents and with any and all schedules and completion dates required by the Owner. The Bidder acknowledges and represents that it has made allowances for normal inclement weather indigenous to the Project Site, in estimating, planning and scheduling of the Work. The Bidder further acknowledges that the Contract Documents are, in its opinion, appropriate and adequate for completing this project and for the construction of sound and suitable work. The Bidder hereby certifies that the Work shall be completed, in place, in full accordance with the Contract Documents, within the time limits specified.

1.06 PREPARATION AND SUBMITTAL OF BID FORM:

A. Bids shall be submitted via mail, delivery or hand delivered, and shall be complete in every respect. The total Bid amount shall be entered in written words and figures in the space provided. Amounts for alternates and unit prices, where relevant, should be entered in the spaces provided.

00 2000 - 4

B. For lump sum Bids, in the event of a discrepancy between the Bid amount in writing and that in figures, the written value shall govern.

C. Bids shall not contain any restatement or qualifications of work to be done and alternate bids will not be considered unless called for. No oral, telegraphic or telephonic bids or modifications will be considered.

D. Bids must be submitted by the closing date and time shown on the bidding documents.

1.07. BID SECURITY:

A. If requested, each Bid must be accompanied by a Bidder's Bond on the Form of Bid Bond provided herein or on a similar form which in every respect materially complies with said

Form of Bid Bond, in the amount of ten percent (10%) of its Bid. For purposes of this provision, the amount of the Bid shall be the Base Bid. The Bidder’s Bond shall be issued by a Surety company licensed to conduct business in the State of Oregon and be acceptable to the Owner. The Surety signing the Bidder's Bond shall be registered with the Oregon State

Insurance Commissioner, and the Surety's name shall appear in the current Authorized

Insurance Company list in the State of Oregon published by the office of the Insurance

Commissioner. Each Surety's name must also appear on the United States Treasury

Department's list of authorized sureties, circular 570, as amended.

1. Bidders are to attach a copy of the bid security to their response. Bidders are required to provide contact information for the bonding company so the Owner can verify the bond is authentic. Failure to provide valid contact information may result in rejection of the bid.

B. Said Bid Security is given as a guarantee that the Bidder will enter into a Contract if awarded the Work and, in the case of refusal or failure to so enter into said Contract, the Bid

Security shall be declared forfeited to the Owner, in accordance with ORS 279C.385. Such

Bid Security shall be returned to all but the three (3) lowest Bidders after the opening of the

Bids and the remaining Bid Security will be returned after the Owner and the successful

Bidder have executed the Contract. If no Contract has been awarded or the Bidder has not been notified of the acceptance of its Bid, within thirty (30) days of the Bid opening, the

Bidder may withdraw its Bid and request the return of its Bid Security. If, at the Owner's or

Project Manager's request, the Bidder agrees to extend and maintain its Bid beyond the specified thirty (30) days, its Bid Security will not be returned until after the Owner and the

Successful Bidder have executed the Contract.

C. The successful Bidder, upon their failure or refusal to execute the Contract within ten (10) days after it has received Notice of Acceptance of its Bid, shall forfeit to the Owner the Bid

Security deposited with its Bid, as liquidated damages for such failure or refusal.

1.08. INSURANCE BINDER:

A. The successful bidder is required to provide a certificate of insurance within five (5) days of bid award, for the coverage specified elsewhere in the bidding documents.

1.09. UNIT PRICES:

A. The Bidder shall include in the spaces provided on the Bid Form a Bid for each unit price.

B. The Owner may accept or reject any or all of these unit prices and include them in the

Contract. The Owner is not obligated to use these unit prices and may require the

Contractor to provide complete breakdown of costs listed therein.

1.10. SITE CONDITIONS AND CONDITIONS OF THE WORK:

00 2000 - 5

A. Each Bidder must acquaint themselves thoroughly as to the character and nature of the

Work to be done and the conditions under which the work will be performed. Each Bidder furthermore must make a careful examination of the site of the Work and inform themselves fully as to the difficulties to be encountered in the performance of the Work, the facilities for delivering, storing and placing materials and equipment, existing and available services and utilities, environmental and access constraints, permit requirements and other conditions relating to construction and labor.

B. The Successful Bidder, assumes all risk as to the nature and behavior of the soil or subsurface conditions which underlie the Work or is adjacent thereto, or difficulties that may be due to any unfavorable conditions that may be encountered in the Work, whether apparent on surface inspection or disclosed after construction begins.

C. No plea of ignorance of conditions that exist or may hereafter exist on the site of the Work, or difficulties that may be encountered in the execution of the Work, as a result of failures to make necessary investigations and examinations, will be accepted as an excuse for any failure or omission on the part of the Successful Bidder to fulfill in every detail all the requirements of the Contract Documents and to complete the Work for the consideration set forth therein, or as a basis for any claim whatsoever.

D. Insofar as possible, the Successful Bidder, in carrying out its work, must employ such methods or means as will not cause interruption of or interference with the Work of the

Owner, the Project Manager or any separate Contractor.

E. The Contract includes excavation on an unclassified basis. The cost of all excavation and backfill required under this Contract is a part of the Base Bid. No distinction will be made insofar as payment is concerned between earth and rock.

1.11. BIDDER'S QUESTIONS, ADDENDA AND INTERPRETATIONS:

A. Bidder's and Sub-Bidders shall fully review the bidding documents available and familiarize themselves with their content, promptly notify the Owner through the A/E of any ambiguity, inconsistency, or error, which they may discover upon examination of the Bidding and

Contract Documents or of the site and local conditions. No interpretation of the meaning of the drawings, specifications or other Contract Documents will be made to any Bidder orally.

B. Every request for such interpretation shall be in writing addressed to the Project Manager, utilizing Section 00 21 00 form, and to be given consideration must be received at least ten

(10) days prior to the date fixed for the opening of the Bids, or two days after the mandatory pre-bid, whichever occurs last.

C. Any and all such interpretations and any supplemental instruction will be in the form of written addenda to the Bidding Documents which, if issued, will be distributed to Bidders not later than three (3) calendar days prior to the date fixed for the opening of the Bids. Neither the Project Manager nor the Owner will be responsible for any other explanations or interpretations of the proposed documents. Failure of any Bidder to receive any such addendum or interpretation shall not relieve the Bidder from any obligation under its Bid as submitted. All addenda so issued shall become a part of the Contract Documents.

D. If the Bidder (or any person bidding to Bidder and/or subsequently in contract with the

Bidder, relating to the subject project) knows, or should have known, that an ambiguity, discrepancy, error, omission or conflicting statement exists in the Bidding or Contract

Documents, said Bidder has an obligation to seek a clarification thereof from the A/E prior to the Bid. The Owner will welcome such a clarification request, and, if deemed necessary by the Owner, the Project Manager or A/E, the Purchasing Department will issue a written

00 2000 - 6 addendum clarifying the matter in question.

1.12. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BONDS:

A. The successful bidder shall promptly execute and deliver the Performance and Payment

Payment Bond shall be acceptable to the Owner, in accordance with State law and shall be delivered to the Owner not later than the date of execution of the Contract. The Surety signing the Bond shall be registered with the Oregon State Insurance Commissioner, and the Surety's name shall appear in the current Authorized Insurance Company list in the

State of Oregon published by the office of the Insurance Commissioner. The Surety's name must also appear on the United States Treasury Department's list of authorized sureties, circular 570, as amended. No Work shall commence at the project site until approved Bonds are received by the Owner. Both bonds shall be in compliance with ORS Sections
