About this file

This is a Performance Bond template document related to a water laboratory testing services contract with the City of Meriden-Water Department in Connecticut. The bond serves as a financial guarantee that the contractor will faithfully perform the contracted work in accordance with the project specifications and terms. The performance bond is issued jointly by the contractor and a surety company and is payable to the City of Meriden as the obligee. The bond amount is to be determined based on the contract value, and it ensures that if the contractor defaults, the surety will either complete the work or cover the costs necessary for completion, up to the bond amount stated in the first paragraph of the agreement.

The bond includes standard provisions requiring the contractor to promptly and faithfully perform all work in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, drawings, and specifications as prepared by the designated engineer or architect. The surety waives notice of any alterations or defaults made by the owner and is liable for completing the contract or arranging for completion through the lowest responsible bidder if the contractor fails to perform. Any legal action against the bond must be instituted within two years from the date final payment under the contract becomes due. The bond binds the contractor, surety, and their respective successors and assigns jointly and severally, and no right of action accrues to any party other than the named owner and its legal representatives.
