1. SAM REGISTRATION. All bidders must register and complete online representations and certifications in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov prior to the bid opening. Bidders that have not registered or completed their online representations and certifications may be rejected. Bidders are advised that the initial registration in SAM may take several weeks.

Submission of paper copies of completed Representations and Certifications is NOT required with bid submissions.

2. . Any prospective bidder desiring an explanation or interpretation of the solicitation, drawings, specifications, etc., must BIDDER INQUIRIES submit their questions using the ProjNet system at https://www.projnet.org.

6. Bidders are directed to FAR Clause 52.211-10, COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK (APR 1984) - ALTERNATE I (APR 1984) for completion date requirements.

7. BID BONDS

a. This solicitation requires each bidder to submit an acceptable bid guarantee along with its bid (see clause 52.228-1). The Contracting Officer has the authority and responsibility to determine whether the bid bond and its accompanying documentation clearly show that the person(s) executing the bid bond on behalf of the surety have the authority to unequivocally bind the bonding company.

b. One acceptable form of bid guarantee is a bid bond. If a bid bond is used, it must be accompanied by a signed and dated power-of-attorney. If a signed and dated power-of-attorney does not accompany the bid bond, the bid must be rejected as non-responsive. Please note that a nonresponsive bid may not be corrected after bid opening to make it responsive - the bid must be rejected. The power-of-attorney must be issued by the surety (the Treasury Department-approved bonding company, not the insurance agency writing the bond).

c. Original powers-of-attorney and photocopies or facsimiles of original, otherwise valid, powers-of attorney provide sufficient evidence of authority to bind the surety. Questions concerning the authenticity or enforceability of a power-of-attorney may be resolved by the Contracting Officer, often in consultation with the surety, after the bid opening.

d. This note does not provide bidders with an all-inclusive checklist for submitting an acceptable bid bond rather, it provides some information regarding recent changes to the Federal Acquisition Regulation regarding the validity of powers-of-attorney. The revised regulation may be found at

FAR 28.101-3.

e. The revised regulations described in this note are effective for solicitations issued after September 30, 2005.

8. RESPONSIBILITY DETERMINATION. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 9.1, the apparent low bidder will be requested to provide the following information:

a. A detailed description of the work to be self-performed and resources available to demonstrate the firm is capable of complying with 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting.

b. Financial Statements, including balance sheets that identify major categories of assets, liabilities, and owner's equity; and profit and loss statements for the past three (3) years.

c. A Bank Certification of Financial Capability (line of credit).

9. APPARENT CLERICAL MISTAKES

a. For the purpose of initial evaluation of bids, the following will be utilized in resolving arithmetic discrepancies found on the face of bidding schedule as submitted by the bidder:

i. Obviously misplaced decimal points will be corrected;

ii. Discrepancy between unit price and extended price, the unit price will govern;

iii. Apparent errors in extension of unit prices will be corrected;

iv. Apparent errors in addition of lump sum and extended prices will be corrected.

b. For the purpose of bid evaluation, the Government will proceed on the assumption that the bidder intends its bid to be evaluated on the basis of the unit prices, the totals arrived at by resolution of arithmetic discrepancies as provided above and the bid will be so reflected on the abstract of bids

Bidder qualification information, as referenced in Section 00 73 00 - Supplementary Conditions, must be received by the Contracting Officer within two (2) business days after the bid opening. This information will be treated as confidential commercial or financial information to the extent permitted by law under exemption 4 to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. (S) 552(b)(4). The financial statements should be not over 60 days old.

10. UNBALANCED BIDS. The government may reject as non-responsive any bid that is materially unbalanced between contract line-item numbers or sub-items on the bidding schedule. A bid is materially unbalanced when it is based on prices that are significantly less than cost for some work and significantly more than cost for other work. A materially unbalanced bid may be rejected if the Contracting Officer has a reasonable doubt as to whether the bid will result in the lowest overall cost to the government even though it may be the low evaluated bid. Additionally, a bid that is unbalanced so as to be tantamount to an advance payment will be rejected as non-responsive even if acceptance of the bid would result in the lowest overall cost to the government. Reference is made to paragraph (d) of clause 52.214-19, "Contract Award - Sealed Bidding - Construction."
