This document contains price form instructions for an Invitation for Bids (IFB) issued by the Maryland State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) for plumbing maintenance and repair services at the Westminster Shop and satellite locations throughout Carroll County, Maryland. The solicitation, designated D7PLUMB32SB, seeks bids for comprehensive plumbing services including emergency response, installation, maintenance, and repairs to water, sewer, drain lines, fixtures, hot water heaters, well pumps, holding tanks, and backflow preventers. The price form requires bidders to submit pricing for 30 service calls, 200 lead plumber hours, 100 helper hours, and 5 years of backflow preventor service over the contract term. A pre-bid conference and site visit is scheduled for July 16 at 10:00 a.m., written questions are due July 22 at 2:00 p.m., and bids are due July 30, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. with public opening at 12:00 p.m. The contract term is sixty months or until contract funds are depleted, whichever occurs first, and will not automatically renew.
Bidders must submit pricing that includes fully loaded hourly rates for journeyman plumbers and helpers/apprentices, a service call fee, parts and materials at actual cost plus up to 10 percent markup, and overtime rates not to exceed 1.5 times the routine hourly rate. All prices must be entered in dollars and cents with clear decimal points, calculations rounded to the nearest cent, and every editable field completed without alterations. This is a Small Business Reserve procurement limited to certified small businesses with zero percent MBE/DBE and zero percent VSBE subcontracting goals. Bidders must hold a current State of Maryland Master Plumbers License, demonstrate a minimum of five years commercial plumbing business experience, and maintain an available workforce of at least two State of Maryland licensed journeyman technicians with minimum five years commercial experience. Three business references documenting similar commercial plumbing services provided within the preceding 24 months are required, and negative reference responses may result in bid disqualification. No subcontracting is permitted. The contractor must maintain commercial general liability insurance of one million dollars combined single limit and one million dollars workers' compensation coverage. Award will be made to the responsive and responsible bidder with the lowest total bid price, with no federal funding involved.

Appendix 2. Price Form Instructions
Each Bidder/Offeror shall submit its response via the Price Form in accordance with the instructions specified herein. Do not alter the Price Form; otherwise, the Bid may be determined to be not responsive or the Proposal may be determined to be not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. If the Price Form contains a signature box, it must be signed and dated by an individual who is authorized to bind the Bidder/Offeror to the prices entered on the Price Form.
Follow these instructions carefully when completing your Price Form:
A) All Unit and Extended Prices must be clearly entered in dollars and cents, e.g., $24.15. Make your decimal points clear and distinct.
B) All Unit Prices must be the actual price per unit the State will pay for the specific item or service identified in this IFB/RFP and may not be contingent on any other factor or condition in any manner.
C) All calculations shall be rounded to the nearest cent, e.g., .344 shall be .34 and .345 shall be .35.
D) Any goods or services required through this IFB/RFP which are proposed to be provided at No Cost to the State must be clearly entered in the Unit Price, if appropriate, and Extended Price with $0.00.
E) Every editable field in the Price Form shall be completed. Any changes or corrections made to the Price Form by the Bidder/Offeror prior to submission due date shall be initialed and dated, if required, or submitted as a new Price Form through eMMA. Partial or incomplete Bids/Proposals will be rejected unless otherwise stated in the solicitation.
F) Except as instructed on the Price Form, nothing shall be entered on or attached to the Price Form that proposes conditions or contingencies on the prices. Conditions may render the Bid not responsive or the Proposal not reasonably susceptible for being selected for award.
G) It is imperative that the prices included on the Price Form have been entered correctly and calculated accurately by the Bidder/Offeror and that the respective total prices agree with the entries on the Price Form. Any incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations by the Bidder/Offeror will be treated as provided in COMAR 21.05.02.12 and may cause the Bid/Proposal to be rejected.
H) All pricing, including labor rates, entered in the Price Form must be fully loaded prices that include all costs/expenses associated with the provision of services required by the IFB/RFP. Examples may include all labor, profit/overhead, general operating, administrative, and all other expenses and costs necessary to perform the work set forth in the solicitation. No other amounts will be paid to the Contractor.
J) Unless indicated elsewhere in the IFB/RFP, sample amounts used for calculations on the Price Form are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only. Unless stated otherwise in the IFB/RFP, a minimum or maximum number of units or usage in the performance of the Contract is not guaranteed.
K) Failure to adhere to any of these instructions may result in the Bid being determined not responsive or the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
