Quail Pines II Bidders Qualifications.pdf

This document comprises suggested instructions to bidders for construction contracts, established jointly by the National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers, with copyright dated 2013.

The instructions establish foundational bidding procedures and requirements for construction contract opportunities. Article 1 defines key terms including the Issuing Office, Bidder (defined as one who submits a bid directly to the Owner rather than through a sub-bidder), and Successful Bidder (identified as the lowest, responsible, and responsive Bidder selected by the Owner). Article 2 specifies that complete sets of bidding documents must be obtained from the Issuing Office as noted in the advertisement or invitation to bid, and that incomplete sets should not be used for bid preparation. Article 3 outlines bidder qualification requirements, mandating that prospective bidders submit qualifications information with their bids, including written evidence of financial data and previous experience, state business authority, contractor license numbers where applicable, and subcontractor and supplier qualifications. Bidders must submit Section C-451 (Statement of Bidder's Qualifications) with their bid submissions. The Owner will review qualifications to establish an approved list of contractors eligible to bid, and failure to submit required qualification information within specified timeframes may result in disqualification from contract award consideration. The Owner reserves the right to request additional pertinent information regarding bidder qualifications.
