MANUFACTURERS_LIST.pdf

This is a Manufacturers List form issued by the City of Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana, for the 116th Street and Hoover Road Roundabout Construction project. The document serves as an instruction sheet requiring bidders to identify specific manufacturers for each equipment item listed in the project specifications. Bidders must enter the name of a single manufacturer for each listed equipment item, and failure to provide manufacturer names for all equipment items may render the bid non-responsive if such omission is deemed material and provides a substantial advantage over competing bidders. Upon contract award, all listed equipment must be furnished by the named manufacturers unless the Owner specifically authorizes changes. Equipment substitutions are permitted only with prior written consent from the Owner. The preliminary acceptance of equipment identified by manufacturer name does not waive compliance with the project's Drawings and Specifications, as final acceptance is contingent upon full conformity with all technical requirements.

The document emphasizes that bidders must exercise care in manufacturer designation to ensure responsive bidding and compliance with contract requirements. No specific equipment items or manufacturers are detailed within this form itself, as it serves as a template to be completed by bidders during the bid submission process. The form is part of the sealed bid procurement process with bids due by 9:00 am on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, and is subject to the broader project requirements including performance bonds, payment bonds, and maintenance bonds secured through U.S. Treasury-approved sureties authorized to conduct business in Indiana.
