Each Bidder’s submittal shall include all the items listed in the Vendor Submissions section.
The Successful Bidder will be required to furnish the necessary additional bond(s) for the faithful performance of the Contract, as prescribed in the Contract Documents.
All bid bonds, payment and performance bond(s), insurance contracts, and certificates of insurance shall be executed by a licensed agent of the surety or insurance company possessing a current A.M.

In order to perform work on public contracts, the successful Bidder shall have all licenses and permits required by federal, state, and local statutes, regulations, and ordinances.
The County will award the bid to the lowest, most Responsible and Responsive Bidder that is most qualified to perform the job according to the specifications and qualifications listed in the Invitation to Bid. Bidders shall provide documentation that they can perform the required services and provide documentation of past and present projects of this same nature, along with references. Failure to provide said documentation will result in a bid being found non-responsive.
Before a contract will be awarded for the Project contemplated herein, the County will conduct such investigations as is necessary to determine the performance record and ability of the apparent low Bidder to perform the size and type of project specified under the Contract. The County reserves the right to reject bids from Bidders whose Dun & Bradstreet Comprehensive Report, or past work performance with the County and other governmental agencies, including timeliness of completion of projects and history of payment to subcontractors or materialmen are deemed by the County to be unsatisfactory.

Failure to do so will result in bid being found non-responsive. Comment by Cynthia Renfro: It is my understanding the County has discontinued the use of Dun & Bradstreet reports, so we should probably remove this language from our template.
In the event the apparent low bid submitted by a Responsible and Responsive Bidder exceeds the County's budget for the Project, the County reserves the right to value engineer the published scope of work in order to effect deductive cost changes. In light of the modified scope of work, the County shall review the three lowest bids submitted by Responsible and Responsive Bidders in order to select one Bidder to whom to award the Contract.
The County reserves the right to reject any or all bid(s), and may postpone the award of the Contract for a period of time which shall not extend beyond thirty (30) calendar days from the bid opening date.

AWARD OF CONTRACT
A. The County reserves the right to reject any and all bids for any reason or for no reason as may be deemed necessary by the County to be in its best interest, including but not limited to bids from any contractor who has failed to successfully complete a previous project to the satisfaction of the County. The County further reserves the right to waive any and all informalities, and reserves the right to reject all nonconforming, unresponsive, unbalanced, or conditional bids. PLEASE NOTE: ANY TERMS, CONDITIONS, OR EXCEPTIONS SUBMITTED WITH A BID SHALL BE DISREGARDED AND HAVE NO EFFECT UPON THE CONTRACT RESULTING FROM THIS SOLICITATION. The County reserves the right to reject the bid of any Bidder if the County believes that it would not be in the best interest of the Project to make an award to that Bidder, because the bid is not responsive or responsible, or the Bidder is unqualified or of doubtful financial ability or fails to meet any other pertinent standard or criteria established by the County. The County also reserves the right to enter into contract negotiations with a Responsible and Responsive Bidder who submits the lowest bid. If the County and the low Bidder cannot negotiate a successful contract the County may terminate such negotiations and begin negotiations with a Responsible and Responsive Bidder who submits the next lowest bid. No Bidder shall have any rights against the County arising from such negotiations. Discrepancies in the multiplication of units of work and unit prices will be resolved in favor of the unit prices. Discrepancies between the indicated sum of any column of figures and the correct sum thereof will be resolved in favor of the correct sum. Where numeric data is given both in Arabic numerals and in written language, and where there exists a discrepancy between an Arabic numeral and written language, the written language shall be presumed to be correct and the Arabic numeral presumed incorrect.
B. In the event the apparent low bid submitted by a Responsible and Responsive Bidder exceeds the County's budget for the Project, the County reserves the right to value engineer the published scope of work in order to effect deductive cost changes. In light of the modified scope of work, the County shall review the three lowest bids submitted by Responsible and Responsive Bidders in order to select one Bidder to whom to award the contract.
C. The County reserves the right to delete any bid items and the total bid shall be determined as the sum of the bid items awarded. In evaluating bids, the County will consider the qualifications of the Bidders, whether or not the bids comply with the prescribed requirements, time of completion and other data, as may be requested in the Bid Form or prior to the Notice of Award. The County may conduct such investigations as the County deems necessary to assist in the evaluation of any bid and to establish the responsibility, qualifications and financial ability of Bidders, proposed Subcontractors, Suppliers and other persons and organizations to perform and complete the Project in accordance with the contract Documents to the County's satisfaction within the prescribed time. The County may consider the operating costs, maintenance requirements, performance data, and guarantees of major items of materials and equipment proposed for incorporation in the Project when such data is required to be submitted prior to Notice of Award.
If the contract is to be awarded, it will be awarded to the Responsible and Responsive Bidder submitting the lowest bid whose evaluation by the County indicates to the County that the award will be in the best interest of the Project. The Notice of Award shall be issued only after approval by the Walton County Board of County Commissioners and upon completion of all required award documentation.
No contractual obligation shall exist until the contract has been approved and executed by the Board.
BID PROTEST

Written notice of intent to file a bid protest must be submitted with the Purchasing Department or Chief Financial Officer within twenty-four (24) hours after the Board’s declaration of its intention with regard to an award. Written protest must be submitted to Purchasing Director or Chief Financial Officer within ten (10) calendar days after filing written notice of intent.

The schedule shall be submitted to the County for approval prior to the first Application for Progress Payment. The Progress Schedule shall be updated and submitted with each Application for Progress Payment. Failure on the part of the Contractor to progress with the Project in strict accordance with the Progress Schedule shall constitute grounds for retaining 5% of the progress payments during the period the Contractor is not progressing in strict accordance with the Project Schedule.
C. Within 20 calendar days of execution of this Contract but not less than 15 calendar days before the first Application for Progress Payment is to be submitted, Contractor shall submit to County a Schedule of Values covering various general and specific tasks enumerated by the County.
