To discourage “bid shopping” on construction projects, the apparent low bidder must submit, by 4:00 P.M. local time on the first full business day following bid opening, a list of all first-tier subcontractors with whom the bidder intends to subcontract for more than 1% of their total bid amount or $10,000.00 whichever is greater.

Failure to submit the required list by the deadline shall result in the bidder being declared ineligible for award unless the County determines it would be contrary to the County’s interests.

If the apparent low bid is nonresponsive or the bidder is otherwise ineligible for award, the County will notify the next low responsive bid submitted by a responsible bidder to submit their subcontractor list by 4:00 P.M. local time on the first full business day following actual notice of the requirement.

Submission of the subcontractor list shall constitute certification that the listed subcontractors will perform work on the project in an amount reasonably close to that stated on the subcontractor list. No subcontractor may be added or changed without the prior written approval of the County subsequent to review and approval by the Administering Department Director and Procurement Director.

11.28 and 11.32.

13. UNBALANCED BIDS

The County reserves the right to reject a bid as non-responsive if the prices bid are materially unbalanced between line items. A bid is materially unbalanced when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated and there is a reasonable doubt that the bid will result in the lowest overall cost to County, even though it may be the low evaluated bid.

14. JOINT VENTURES

Bidders that submit a bid as a Joint Venture must include a copy of any Joint Venture Agreement at the time of bid naming Pima County as a third-party beneficiary of the Joint Venture Agreement. The bid bond must be presented in the Joint Venture‘s name as the Principal.

The bid must be executed by all of the Joint Venture participants or by one Joint Venture participant with a letter of authorization from the other Joint Venture participants. In the event the Joint Venture is the lowest bidder and is awarded the project, but the Joint Venture has failed to validly form a Joint Venture Entity with the Joint Venture Entity registered as a Vendor with Pima County at the time of bid, the Joint Venture participants will execute a single Contract with Pima County with each Joint Venture participant as a separate Contractor under the Contract. Each such Contractor will be jointly and severally liable for performance under the contract, and the required Payment and Performance Bonds will identify the individual Contractors (see Construction Services Contract).
