If apparent Successful Bidder declines to make any such substitution, Owner may award the Contract to the next lowest Bidder that proposes to use acceptable Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities.

Declining to make requested substitutions will not constitute grounds for forfeiture of the Bid security of any

Bidder. Any Subcontractor, Supplier, individual, or entity so listed and against which Owner or Engineer makes no written objection prior to the giving of the Notice of Award will be deemed acceptable to Owner and Engineer subject to revocation of such acceptance after the Effective Date of the Agreement as provided in Paragraph 6.06 of the General Conditions.

Contractor has reasonable objection.

Conditions.

Advertisement or Invitation to Bid and shall be enclosed in an opaque sealed envelope plainly marked with the Project title (and, if applicable, the designated portion of the Project for which the Bid is submitted), the name and address of Bidder, and shall be accompanied by the Bid security and other required documents. If a Bid is sent by mail or other delivery system, the sealed envelope containing the Bid shall be enclosed in a separate envelope plainly marked on the outside with the notation “BID ENCLOSED.” All mailed bids must be received by the bid opening time specified in the Advertisement for Bidders.

Purchasing Department

City of Weatherford

303 Palo Pinto Street

Weatherford, TX 76086

Instructions to Bidders 00010-6

MODIFICATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF BID

A Bid may be modified or withdrawn by an appropriate document duly executed in the manner that a Bid must be executed and delivered to the place where Bids are to be submitted prior to the date and time for the opening of Bids.

If within 24 hours after Bids are opened, any Bidder files a duly signed written notice with Owner and promptly thereafter demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner that there was a material and substantial mistake in the preparation of its Bid, that Bidder may withdraw its Bid, and the Bid security will be returned. Thereafter, if the Work is rebid, that Bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the

Work.

OPENING OF BIDS

Bids will be opened at the time and place indicated in the Advertisement or Invitation to Bid and, unless obviously non-responsive, read aloud publicly. An abstract of the amounts of the base Bids and major alternates, if any, will be made available to Bidders after the opening of Bids.

BIDS TO REMAIN SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE

All Bids will remain subject to acceptance for the period of time stated in the Bid Form, but Owner may, in its sole discretion, release any Bid and return the Bid security prior to the end of this period.

EVALUATION OF BIDS AND AWARD OF CONTRACT

Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, including without limitation, nonconforming, nonresponsive, unbalanced, or conditional Bids. Owner further reserves the right to reject the Bid of any

Bidder whom it finds, after reasonable inquiry and evaluation, to not be responsible. Owner may also reject the Bid of any Bidder if Owner believes that it would not be in the best interest of the Project to make an award to that Bidder. Owner also reserves the right to waive all informalities not involving price, time, or changes in the Work and to negotiate contract terms with the Successful Bidder.

More than one Bid for the same Work from an individual or entity under the same or different names will not be considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any Bidder has an interest in more than one Bid for the Work may be cause for disqualification of that Bidder and the rejection of all Bids in which that

Bidder has an interest.

In evaluating Bids, Owner will consider whether or not the Bids comply with the prescribed requirements, and such alternates, unit prices and other data, as may be requested in the Bid Form or prior to the Notice of

Award.

In evaluating Bidders, Owner will consider the qualifications of Bidders and may consider the qualifications and experience of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities proposed for those portions of the Work for which the identity of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities must be submitted as provided in the Supplementary Conditions.

Owner may conduct such investigations as Owner deems necessary to establish the responsibility, qualifications, and financial ability of Bidders, proposed Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

If the Contract is to be awarded, Owner will award the Contract to the Bidder whose Bid is in the best interests of the Project.

CONTRACT SECURITY AND INSURANCE

Article 5 of the General Conditions, as may be modified by the Supplementary Conditions, sets forth Owner’s requirements as to performance and payment bonds and insurance. When the Successful Bidder delivers the executed Agreement to Owner, it shall be accompanied by such bonds.

Instructions to Bidders 00010-7

SIGNING OF AGREEMENT

When Owner gives a Notice of Award to the Successful Bidder, it shall be accompanied by the required number of unsigned counterparts of the Agreement with the other Contract Documents which are identified in the Agreement as attached thereto.

Within ten days thereafter, Owner shall deliver one fully signed counterpart to Successful Bidder with a complete set of the

Drawings with appropriate identification.

SALES AND USE TAXES

Owner is exempt from local and state sales and use taxes on materials and equipment to be incorporated in the Work. Said taxes shall not be included in the Bid. Refer to Paragraph SC-6.10 of the Supplementary

Conditions for additional information.

Agreement 00030-1

Agreement Between Owner and Contractor

This Agreement is by and between City of Weatherford (Owner) and (Contractor).

Owner and Contractor, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, agree as follows:

WORK

Contractor shall complete all Work as specified or indicated in the Contract Documents. The Work is generally described as follows:

The project generally consists of constructing approximately 5,385 linear feet of 8” and 675 linear feet of 24” water line.

THE PROJECT

The Project for which the Work under the Contract Documents may be the whole or only a part is generally described as follows:

Northeast Water Line Improvements

ENGINEER

The Project has been designed by: Teague Nall & Perkins, Inc.

CONTRACT TIMES

Time of the Essence

A. All time limits for Milestones, if any, Substantial Completion, and completion and readiness for final payment as stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract.

Days to Achieve Substantial Completion and Final Payment

A. The Work will be substantially completed within 210 calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run as provided in Paragraph 2.03 of the General Conditions and completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions within 240 calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run.

Liquidated Damages

A. The times for Substantial Completion and Final Completion of the Work described herein are reasonable times for the completion of each, taking into consideration all conditions, including but not limited to, the average climatic change and conditions, including differing site conditions, and usual industrial conditions prevailing in this locality.

B. Time is of the essence in this Contract and the deadlines for achieving Substantial Completion and Final Completion will be strictly enforced. Liquidated damages will be assessed against the Contractor for failure to achieve

Substantial Completion by the date established by this Contract and shall continue to be assessed until the Contractor achieves total (100%) Final Completion as required by this Contract. The Contractor and its surety agree that the liquidated damages provisions in this Contract are reasonable, facially valid, are not a penalty, and do not otherwise operate as a penalty.

C. For each and every calendar day that any work remains incomplete after the expiration of the deadline for Substantial

Completion of the Work, including any time extension authorized in writing by the Owner in accordance with Article

12 of the General Conditions, the sum of one thousand Dollars ($1,000) per calendar day may be deducted from the moneys due to the Contractor, or may be charged against the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages, until the date the Work is finally (100%) complete, as determined by the Owner. The Contractor agrees that for

Agreement 00030-2 purposes of Texas Gov’t Code Ch. 2252, a bona fide dispute exists if liquidated damages are assessed under this Contract and the Owner may withhold retainage to satisfy liquidated damages owed to the Owner hereunder.

D. The sum of money thus deducted or charged as liquidated damages is not to be considered as a penalty, but shall be deemed, taken, and treated as reasonable liquidated damages, representing a reasonable estimate of damages, or a reasonable forecast of just compensation, because the harm caused by the breach is incapable or extremely difficult of estimation due to the public nature of the work and the likely loss to be sustained by the Owner and the general public, estimated at or before the time of executing this Contract.

E. Further, the parties acknowledge the Owner’s paramount purposes and duty to protect the “public fisc” and the general health, safety, and welfare of the public, and the parties agree that any alleged disparity between actual and liquidated damages shall be construed as bridgeable and acceptable as a matter of law and public policy and shall be calculated and construed in favor of the Owner.

CONTRACT PRICE

Owner shall pay Contractor for completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents an amount in current funds equal to the sum of the amounts established by unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of that item as indicated in the Bid.

As provided in Paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions, estimated quantities are not guaranteed, and determinations of actual quantities and classifications are to be made by Engineer as provided in Paragraph 9.07 of the General Conditions. Unit prices have been computed as provided in Paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions.

PAYMENT PROCEDURES

Submittal and Processing of Payments

A. Contractor shall submit Applications for Payment in accordance with Article 14 of the General Conditions.

Applications for Payment will be processed by Engineer as provided in the General Conditions.

Progress Payments; Retainage

A. Owner shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Price on the basis of Contractor’s Applications for Payment on or about the 10th day of each month during performance of the Work as provided in Paragraphs 6.02.A.1 and 6.02.A.2 below. All such payments will be measured by the schedule of values established as provided in Paragraph 2.07.A of the General Conditions (and in the case of Unit Price Work based on the number of units completed) or, in the event there is no schedule of values, as provided in the General Requirements:

Prior to Substantial Completion, progress payments will be made in an amount equal to the percentage indicated below but, in each case, less the aggregate of payments previously made and less such amounts as Engineer may determine or Owner may withhold, including but not limited to liquidated damages, in accordance with Paragraph 14.02 of the General Conditions:

a) 90 percent of Work completed (with the balance being retainage).

b) 90 percent of cost of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work (with the balance being retainage).

B. “Retainage” means the percentage of the payment withheld in this Contract by the Owner to secure performance of the Contract. The Owner may withhold Retainage in the amount of TEN percent (10%) of the total Contract Price, and the rate of Retainage may not exceed TEN percent (10%) for any item in a bid schedule or schedule of values for the Project, including materials and equipment delivered on site to be installed. The percentage of retainage held on Subcontracts by the Contractor shall not be greater than the percentage withheld from the Contractor by the Owner in accordance with Texas Gov’t Code Ch. 2252.

Until the conditions set forth for final payment have been satisfied by the Contractor, the amount of each monthly Application for Payment must include the value of each line item as indicated on the approved schedule of values, to the extent completed, less Retainage of TEN percent (10%). Retainage will not be released to the Contractor before Substantial Completion, but may be withheld by the Owner until Final Completion. If no bona fide dispute exists and no liquidated damages or other amounts are owed to the Owner, then Retainage will be released to the

Agreement 00030-3

Contractor with final payment after all of the following conditions relating to final payment have been satisfied: (1) the Contractor has fully performed the Contract; (2) the Contractor has completed all Punch List items to the satisfaction of the Owner and the Engineer; (3) the Contractor has delivered to the Owner all Project close-out documents in duplicate, including (a) all maintenance and operating manuals; (b) marked sets of as-built drawings;

(c) all guarantees and warranties required under the Contract Documents; (d) a list of names, addresses, and telephone numbers for all subcontractors and others providing guarantees and warranties; (e) an electronic (PDF) bookmarked single file containing the information required in 3 (a-d) above, that is indexed and searchable; and (4) the applicable governmental authorities have issued to the Owner the final use and certificate of occupancy for the Project.

Final Payment

A. Upon final completion and acceptance of the Work in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions, Owner shall pay the remainder of the Contract Price as recommended by Engineer as provided in said Paragraph 14.07.
