This is a comprehensive Project Manual and Invitation for Bid (IFB) document for the Parker Water and Sanitation District's Regional Pond to Cherry Creek Pump Station Parallel Pipeline Construction Project located in Parker, Colorado. The project involves constructing a new 24-inch raw water pipeline approximately 9,330 linear feet long, including various appurtenances such as valves, blowoffs, air release valves, vaults, fiber optic conduits, and handholes. A trenchless crossing is planned at Hess Road, with connections to existing pipelines near Bar CCC Pond and Regional Pond, and a flow meter installation at Cherry Creek Pump Station. The project also includes a separate potable waterline installation at the South Water Reclamation Facility. Bids are due on August 11, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with a mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for July 17, 2025, at the Parker Water and Sanitation District's office.

The project has specific contractor qualifications, requiring bidders to have completed at least five projects with 5,000 linear feet of 24-inch or larger pipe installation within the past ten years, and tunnel contractors must have completed four tunnel projects using similar methods in the past two years. The contract is anticipated to be completed within 485 consecutive days after mobilization, with substantial completion targeted for November 1, 2026, and final completion by December 31, 2026. Liquidated damages are set at $1,000 per day for substantial completion delays and $500 per day for final completion delays. The project will be funded by Parker Water and Sanitation District, with bidding documents available through the Bidnet platform, and the estimated project will require comprehensive coordination with multiple stakeholders, including local jurisdictions and utility owners.

ARTICLE 1—DEFINED TERMS

1.01 Terms used in these Instructions to Bidders have the meanings indicated in the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions. Additional terms used in these Instructions to Bidders have the meanings indicated below:

A. Issuing Office—The office from which the Bidding Documents are to be issued, and which registers plan holders.

ARTICLE 2—BIDDING DOCUMENTS

2.01 Bidder shall obtain a complete set of Bidding Requirements and proposed Contract Documents (together, the Bidding Documents). See the Agreement for a list of the Contract Documents. It is Bidder’s responsibility to determine that it is using a complete set of documents in the preparation of a Bid. Bidder assumes sole responsibility for errors or misinterpretations resulting from the use of incomplete documents, by Bidder itself or by its prospective Subcontractors and Suppliers.

2.02 Bidding Documents are made available for the sole purpose of obtaining Bids for completion of the Project and permission to download or distribution of the Bidding Documents does not confer a license or grant permission or authorization for any other use, nor does it grant or confer ownership or any property interest in the Bidding Documents and other documents distributed for the Project. Authorization to download documents, or other distribution, includes the right for Bidding Documents holders to print documents solely for their use, and the use of their prospective Subcontractors and Suppliers, provided the Bidding Documents holder pays all costs associated with printing or reproduction. Paper or other types of printed documents may not be re-sold under any circumstances.

2.03 Owner has established a Bidding Documents Website as indicated in the Advertisement or invitation to bid. Owner recommends that Bidder register as a Bidding Documents holder with the Issuing Office at such website, and obtain a complete set of the Bidding Documents from such website. Bidders may rely that sets of Bidding Documents obtained from the Bidding Documents Website are complete, unless an omission is blatant. Registered Bidding Documents holders will receive Addenda issued by Owner or Issuing Office.

2.04 Electronic Documents

A. When the Bidding Requirements indicate that electronic (digital) copies of the Bidding Documents are available, such documents will be made available to prospective Bidders as Electronic Documents in the manner specified.

1. Bidding Documents will be provided in PDF (Portable Document Format) (.pdf). It is the intent of the Engineer and Owner that such Electronic Documents are to be exactly representative of the paper copies of the documents. However, because the Owner and Engineer cannot totally control the transmission and receipt of Electronic Documents nor any bidder’s or the Contractor’s means of reproduction of such documents, the Owner and Engineer cannot and do not guarantee that Electronic Documents and reproductions prepared from those versions are identical in every manner to the paper copies.

B. Unless otherwise stated in the Bidding Documents, the Bidder may use and rely upon complete sets of Electronic Documents of the Bidding Documents, described in Paragraph

00 21 13 - Page 2 of 10

2.04.A above. However, Bidder assumes all risks associated with differences arising from transmission/receipt of Electronic Documents versions of Bidding Documents and reproductions prepared from those versions and, further, assumes all risks, costs, and responsibility associated with use of the Electronic Documents versions to derive information that is not explicitly contained in paper versions of the documents, and for Bidder’s reliance upon such derived information.

C. After the Contract is awarded, the Owner will provide or direct the Engineer to provide for the use of the Contractor certain documents that were developed by Engineer as part of the Project design process, as Electronic Documents in native file formats as originally prepared by Engineer.

1. Electronic Documents that are available in native file format include:

a. Plans (CAD/PDF)

2. Release of such documents will be solely for the convenience of the Contractor and subject to additional requirements, if any, for such release as indicated in Specifications Section 01 31 26 – Electronic Communication Protocols. No such document is a Contract Document.

3. Unless the Contract Documents explicitly identify that such information will be available to the Successful Bidder (Contractor), nothing herein will create an obligation on the part of the Owner or Engineer to provide or create such information, and the Contractor is not entitled to rely on the availability of such information in the preparation of its Bid or pricing of the Work. In all cases, the Contractor shall take appropriate measures to verify that electronic/digital information provided in Electronic Documents is appropriate and adequate for Contractor’s specific purposes.

4. In no case will Contractor be entitled to additional compensation or time for completion due to any differences between the actual Contract Documents and any related document in native file format.

ARTICLE 3—QUALIFICATIONS OF BIDDERS

3.01 No prequalification process is required for this project.

ARTICLE 4—PRE-BID CONFERENCE

4.01 A mandatory pre-bid conference will be held at the time and location indicated in the Advertisement or invitation to bid. Representatives of Owner and Engineer will be present to discuss the Project. Bids will not be accepted from Bidders who do not attend the conference. It is each Bidder’s responsibility to sign in at the pre-bid conference to verify its participation.

Bidders must sign in using the name of the organization that will be submitting a Bid. A list of Bidders that attended the pre-bid conference and are, on that basis alone, eligible to submit a Bid for this Project, will be issued in an Addendum.

4.02 Information presented at the pre-bid conference does not alter the Bidding Documents. Owner or Issuing Office will issue Addenda to make any changes to the Bidding Documents that result

00 21 13 - Page 3 of 10 from discussions at the pre-bid conference. Information presented, and statements made at the pre-bid conference will not be binding or legally effective unless incorporated in an Addendum.
