Award will be made as a whole to one bidder, based on TOTAL WORK price for column “Estimated Amount Alternative 1” or “Estimated Amount Alternative 2”.

NOTE 1: The intent of the Government is to award “Alternative 1”. Due to limited availability of funds, final selection of Alternative to be awarded by the Government will be based on the Total Work price for column “Estimated Amount Alternative 1” or “Estimated Amount Alternative 2” and the Government availability of funds at the moment of award. Bidders must bid on both alternatives. If the bidder omits both the unit price and the extended amounts for any of the items in the base work, alternative 1, alternative 2, or optional work sections, then the bid will be declared non-responsive.

NOTE 2: The unit “Job” as used in this Bidding Schedule is synonymous with the term “Lump Sum” used elsewhere within these plans and specifications.

NOTE 3: Bidders shall furnish unit prices for all items listed on bidding schedule, which require unit prices. If the bidder fails to insert a unit price in the appropriate blank for required items but does furnish an extended total or an estimated amount for such items, the Government will deem his unit price to be the quotient obtained by dividing the extended estimated amount for that line item by the estimated quantity. IF THE BIDDER OMITS BOTH THE UNIT PRICE AND THE

EXTENDED ESTIMATED AMOUNT FOR ANY REQUIRED ITEM, HIS BID WILL BE DECLARED

NON-RESPONSIVE.

NOTE 4: THE NOTICE TO PROCEED (NTP): The successful bidder is advised that performance and payment bonds shall be submitted in accordance with the time frame in block 12B of SF 1442 after Notice of Award. The NTP will be issued immediately after verification of acceptable performance and payment bonds. Within 24 hours after issuance of the NTP, the Contractor shall initiate a meeting to discuss the submittal process with the Area or Resident Engineer or his authorized representative. Physical work cannot start until the Accident Prevention Program, Contractor Quality Control Plan, and other submittals which may be required, have been submitted and approved and all preliminary meetings called for under the contract, have been conducted.

NOTE 5: Any bid may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines in writing that it is unreasonable as to price. Unreasonableness of price includes not only total price of bid, but the price for individual line items as well. Any bid may be rejected if the prices for any line items or subline items are materially unbalanced (See FAR 14.404-2).

NOTE 6: OPTION WORK ITEMS: The Government may require the delivery of, in whole or part, the Optional Work Item(s) 0013, 0014, 0015, 0016, 0017, 0018, and 0019. The Government may exercise the Optional Item by written notice to the Contractor. If the Government activates an Optional Item, the activation will occur while the Contractor’s plant is within the limits of work. No additional mobilization/ demobilization will be paid to the Contractor for the Optional work.

NOTE 7: EVALUATION OF OPTIONS (FAR 52.217-5 JUL 1990). Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government’s best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for this basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

NOTE 8: The quantity shown in Item 0013 is for evaluation purposes only; payment for this line item will be based on the actual quantity used and they shall be excluded from the “VARIATIONS IN ESTIMATED QUANTITIES” clause.

NOTE 9: RAPID VENDOR PAYMENT: Web based instructions for the submission of invoices:

http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/BusinessWithUs/Contracting/RapidVendorPayment.aspx

NOTE 10: OPTIONAL WORK Item 013 “Bird Nesting Prevention and Avoidance Measures” will occur concurrently with contract work, if Alternative 1 is awarded. The successful bidder is advised that the contract time required for Bird Nesting Prevention and Avoidance Measures is included in the performance period allowed for completion of the base work and will not be adjusted for Bird Nesting Prevention and Avoidance Measures work.

NOTE 11: TIME ADJUSTMENT IN THE EVENT OF THE EXERCISE OF OPTIONAL

WORK. In the event that the remaining OPTIONAL WORK items are exercised under the terms of the contract, the time required for completion of the contract shall be 85 calendar days for Item 0016 through 0019 in addition to the original contract duration of 245 calendar days established for the BASE WORK items specified in Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES paragraph entitled "COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK". In the event that not all OPTIONAL WORK items are exercised, the time required for completion of the contract will be adjusted by prorating the 85 calendar days using the linear footage of required ditching and draining for each specific item verses to total amount of ditching and draining for all subject OPTIONAL WORK items combined.

EVALUATION OF SUBDIVIDED ITEMS (Mar 1995) - UAI 5152.211-9000.

Item 0002, 0003, 0005, 0008, and 0011 are subdivided into two or more estimated quantities and are to be separately priced. The Government will evaluate each of these items on the basis of total price of its sub-items.

(End of Clause)

VARIATIONS IN ESTIMATED QUANTITIES - SUBDIVIDED ITEMS (Mar 1995) - UAI 5152.211-9001.

The Variation in Estimated Quantities Subdivided Items clause is applicable only in Item 0002, 0003, 0005, 0008, and 0011.

a. Variations from the estimated quantity in the actual work performed under any second or subsequent sub-item or elimination of all work under such a second or subsequent sub-item will not be the basis for an adjustment in contract unit price.

b. Where the actual quantity of work performed for Item 0002, 0003, 0005, 0008, and 0011 is less than 85% of the quantity of the first sub-item listed under such item, the Contractor will be paid at the contract unit price for that sub-item for the actual quantity of work performed and, in addition, an equitable adjustment shall be made in accordance with the clause FAR 52.211-18, Variation in Estimated Quantity .

c. If the quantity of work performed under Item 0002, 0003, 0005, 0008, and 0011 exceeds 115% or is less than 85% of the total estimated quantity of the sub-items under that item, and/or if the quantity of work performed under the second sub-item or any subsequent sub-item under Item No. NONE exceeds 115% or is less than 85% of the estimated quantity of any such sub-item, and if such variation causes an increase or a decrease in the time required for performance of this contract, the contract completion time will be adjusted in accordance with the clause FAR 52.211-18, Variation in Estimated Quantity.
