2. Within seven calendar days after being notified of being the apparent most responsive, responsible Bidder, the Bidder may be asked to submit the following information to the OWNER for evaluation to determine compliance with the responsibility requirements:

a. A statement of the Bidder's organization, including resumes of key personnel, especially those personnel proposed for work on this Project.

b. A summary of the Bidder's construction experience, including current and past projects. Provide names, addresses, phone numbers, and contact persons for references.

The financial statement shall include, as a minimum, an income statement, a statement of changes and related footnotes, a balance sheet, and certification that the financial status of the company has not materially changed since the audit

3. Except as specified under the heading "Evaluation of Responsiveness", if any information required by the Bidding Documents to be submitted with the Bid or subsequent to Bidding but prior to Award is not submitted as required, the Bid will be considered irregular. Failure to promptly correct the irregularity upon notification by the OWNER may cause the Bidder to be judged non-responsible.

Bidders may then be disqualified at the discretion of the OWNER.

D. Substitutions will NOT be considered after receipt of the BIDDER’s Bid, unless specifically requested in writing by the CONTRACTOR with justification and acceptance in writing by the OWNER and ENGINEER

E. In order that the ENGINEER may determine if the proposed substitute item is a satisfactory alternate to those specified, one set of drawings, specifications, full descriptive material as noted in the Section General Requirements, shall be submitted with proposal. In the event that the ENGINEER does not accept the material or equipment for use as a substitute, then the material or equipment listed in the Contract Documents shall be furnished for the amount of the BASE BID. In the event that the ENGINEER allows the material or equipment for use as a substitute, the proposed substitute material or equipment shall be furnished and the CONTRACTOR’s Bid Price shall be adjusted accordingly.

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDER 00100-9

F. If the CONTRACTOR furnishes an acceptable alternate unit, he shall notify the ENGINEER in writing of all dimensional, mechanical, electrical, and structural changes and/or requirements for the unit’s use and shall reimburse the ENGINEER through the OWNER for any associated redesign and/or construction drawings. He shall include in his bid the additional construction costs of mechanical, architectural, structural, electrical, and Engineering costs of that alternate unit. The bid shall also include any paid-up licenses necessary for the use of the equipment, if required by the manufacturer.

G. Trade Names: In cases where an item is identified by a manufacturer’s name, trade name, catalog number, or reference, it is understood that the bidder proposes to furnish the item so identified and does not propose to furnish an “EQUAL” unless the proposed “EQUAL” is definitely indicated therein by the bidder.

The reference to a name brand is intended to be descriptive, but not restrictive, and only to indicate to the prospective bidder articles that will be satisfactory. Bids on the other makes and catalogs will be considered provided each bidder clearly in his bid or proposal exactly describes what he proposes to furnish and forwards with his bid a cut illustration or other descriptive matter which will clearly indicate the character of the article covered by his bid.

The City hereby reserves the right to approve as an equal, or reject as not being equal, any article the bidder proposes to furnish which contains major or minor variations from the specification requirements but may comply substantially therewith.

If no particular brand, model, or make is specified and if no data is required to be submitted with the bid, the successful CONTRACTOR after award and before manufacturer or shipment may be required to submit working drawings or detailed descriptive data sufficient to enable the City to judge if such requirement of the specification is being complied with.

1.06 Performance Bond and Labor and Material Payment Bond

A. The successful Bidder, simultaneously with the execution of the Agreement, shall furnish a Performance Bond and a Labor and Material Payment Bond, each in an amount equal to 100 percent of the Contract Price. The Bonds shall be secured from a surety company acceptable to the OWNER. The forms of the Bonds the successful Bidder will be required to execute are included in the Bidding Documents as Sections 00610 and 00620.

B. The successful Bidder shall, before commencing the work, record said Payment and

Performance Bond in the public records of the County where the improvement is located in accordance with Chapter 255.05 of the Florida Statutes.

1.07 Bidder's Interest in More Than One Bid

No person, firm, or corporation shall be allowed to make, file, or have an interest in more than one Bid for the same work, unless Alternates are called for. A person, firm, or corporation who has submitted a sub-bid to a Bidder or who has quoted prices on materials to a Bidder is not hereby disqualified from submitting a sub-bid or quoting prices to other Bidders.
