12.02 If apparent Successful Bidder declines to make any such substitution, Owner may declare the Bid as non-responsive and 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

City of Raleigh 00200-8 Instruction to Bidders

ARTICLE 18 – BIDS TO REMAIN SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE

18.01 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.

ARTICLE 19 – EVALUATION OF BIDS AND AWARD OF CONTRACT

19.01 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 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 when the lowest responsible Bid is in excess of the funds available.

19.02 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.

19.03 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.

City of Raleigh 00200-11 Instruction to Bidders

19.04 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.

19.05 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 proposed for those portions of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

19.06 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.

19.07 In determining the lowest responsible Bidder, Owner may take into consideration the past performance of Bidder on construction contracts with particular concern given to completion times, quality of work, safety record, cooperation with other contractors, and cooperation with owner.

19.08 In determining the responsive Bidder, Owner shall take into consideration bidder’s compliance with the requirements of G.S. 143-128.2(c). Failure of the low bidder to furnish affidavit(s) and documentation as required by the Bid Form for compliance with G.S. 143-128.2(c) may constitute a basis for disqualification of the Bid.

19.09 Owner reserves the right to reject Bid as non-responsible if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of, such Bidder fails to satisfy Owner that such Bidder is properly qualified to carry out the obligations of the Agreement and to complete the Work described therein.

19.10 Should the Owner adjudge that the apparent low Bidder is not the lowest responsible Bidder by virtue of the above information, said apparent low Bidder will be so notified and his Bid security shall be returned.

19.11 If the Contract is to be awarded, the Owner reserves the right to award contracts to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder in the manner described above.

ARTICLE 20 – CONTRACT SECURITY AND INSURANCE

20.01 Article 6 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.

ARTICLE 21 – SIGNING OF AGREEMENT

21.04 Applicable laws, ordinances, and the rules and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction over construction of the Project shall apply to the contract throughout.
