1.2 BID FORM NOTES

a. Bidders shall bid on all items including optional items (see " Evaluation of Options" FAR 52.217-5). Failure to bid on all items will result in a non-responsive bid.

b. Bidders shall use the Item No. 0002 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0003 total price, Item No. 0004 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0005 total price, Item No. 0007 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0008 total price, Item No. 0010 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0011 total price, Item No. 0014 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0015 total price, and Item No. 0017 unit price to compute Option Item No. 0018 total price.

c. Any bid may be rejected if the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative determines in writing that it is unreasonable as to price. Unreasonableness of price includes not only the total price of the bid, but the prices 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 " Rejection of Individual Bids" FAR 14.404-2.

d. 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 after verification of acceptable performance and payment bonds. Within 48 hours after issuance of the NTP, the Contractor shall initiate a meeting to discuss the submittal process with the Administrative Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative. Physical work cannot start until the Resident Management System is set-up, the Accident Prevention Program and other required submittals have been submitted and approved, and all preliminary meetings called for under the contract have been conducted.

e. RAPID VENDOR PAYMENT: See the following web based instructions for the submission of invoices:

www.mvn.usace.army.mil/Business-With-Us/Contracting/Rapid-Vendor-Payment.aspx

f. The unit "job" is a one-time payment for work performed. "Job" is synonymous with the previously used term "lump sum".

1.3 BIDDING

a. The bidder shall select only one bid lot, determined by the class of dredge intended to be used. Bids which are submitted on an inappropriate bid lot will be declared non-responsive.

b. Bidders shall furnish unit prices for all items listed on the schedule of bid items that 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 the unit price to be the quotient obtained by dividing the extended estimated amount for that line item by the quantity. IF THE BIDDER OMITS BOTH THE UNIT PRICE AND THE EXTENDED

ESTIMATED AMOUNT FOR ANY REQUIRED ITEM, THE BID WILL BE DECLARED

NON-RESPONSIVE.

SECTION 00010 Page 9

1.4 EVALUATION OF BIDS

a. To provide fair competition between dredges of dissimilar sizes and production rates, the hourly dredging quantities have been determined based on the estimated quantity of shoal material to be removed and the nominal production rates of the dredges in each bid lot. The production rates shown in the minimum production rate chart located in the Dredging Regions Section(s) were used to make this determination.

b. The nominal dredge production rates listed in this solicitation were conservatively estimated based on lower-bound material face availability of this solicitation's dredging regions, which have variable and dynamic shoaling conditions. It is the bidder's responsibility to make its own assessment of the actual dredging conditions in order to prepare a bid for this work.

c. Award will be made to that responsible bidder presenting the lowest priced responsive bid in response to this solicitation, regardless of the Bid Lot used.

d. The hourly quantities for the Dredging and Option Dredging Items shown on the bid lots are 100% pay time hours. The actual term of the dredge rental may vary as a result of fractional pay time. Refer to Section 35 20 23.23, paragraph entitled "Dredging and Option Dredging Items", for additional information.

1.5 CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT AWARD

a. Award will be made as a whole to one bidder. The dredge and attendant plant offered in the bidding schedule shall be complete with full operating personnel and in operating status for the contract period. EM 385-1-1, Section 19, "Floating Plant and Marine Activities" shall be complied with at all times. NOTE: All work under these specifications shall be performed in accordance with the provisions of EM 385-1-1 "Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual", latest edition.

b. The Government may award the contract at the total bid price, comprised of the base items and option item(s); however, the Government will not be obligated to exercise any option item(s).

c. The number of hours of rental time stated in the bidding schedule is an estimated quantity. The dredge and attendant plant will be retained for an approximate number of days shown in the table below starting no later than 120 hours after receipt of Government Notice to Proceed by the Contractor.

d. The bidder shall be capable of providing for assignment of the dredge and all attendant plant, complete and in full operating condition in all respects, no later than 120 hours after receipt of Notice to Proceed by the Contractor.

1.6 BIDDER QUALIFICATIONS

a. Before the Government will award a contract based on this solicitation, the apparent low bidder shall establish that it is responsible and entitled to award of the contract, by certifying that its dredge meets the appropriate production rate for the dredging region, as listed in the minimum production rate chart located in the Dredging Regions Section(s). The dredge must have performed at, or above, the listed production rate for at least 85 percent of the total contract duration, on any contracts that are used to prove plant capability, within three years prior to the bid opening date of this solicitation. Failure to establish the dredge's capability to meet the required production rate will result in a finding of non-responsibility.

b. A bidder may be rejected as non-responsible if it cannot show the necessary capital, experience, or equipment needed to perform the work described under this solicitation (see "Responsible Prospective Contractors" FAR 9.1). The bidder must also show that the dredge and attendant plant are not already obligated for the performance of other work which would delay commencement, performance, and completion of the solicited work; and must show that delivery of the dredge and attendant plant to the site of work can be made within the time allowed in the specifications.

c. Bidders must register in the System for Award Management (SAM) database in accordance with FAR 52.204-7 and DFARS 252.204-7004 Alt A.

1.7 PRE-AWARD INSPECTION OF PLANT

a. The apparent low bidder shall make the dredge and attendant plant available for inspection, to determine compliance with these specifications, as soon as practicable after bids are opened, and prior to contract award. If deficiencies are found during the inspection, the bidder will be notified in writing, which may be transmitted by email or facsimile. Upon receipt of such notice, the bidder shall correct all deficiencies at least two calendar days in

SECTION 00010 Page 11 advance of the projected contract award date.

b. Two calendar days before the projected award date, or upon notification by the bidder that the deficiencies have been corrected, a Government representative will re-inspect the dredge and attendant plant. If at that time the dredge and attendant plant do not meet the requirements of these specifications, the bidder will be rejected as non-responsible.

c. The Government may choose to waive the pre-award inspection if the projected contract award date is less than five calendar days after the bid opening date. Waiver of the pre-award inspection does not relieve the bidder from the requirement to provide a dredge and attendant plant in full compliance with the specifications.

1.8 OPTION ITEMS

a. The Government may require the delivery of, in whole or part, any Option Items. The Government may exercise an Option Item by written notice to the Contractor. If the Government activates the Option Item, the activation will occur while the Contractor's equipment is in the work vicinity as described in the applicable Dredging Region Section(s). If Option Dredging Item work is exercised, it shall be performed as a continuance of Dredging Item work, which shall be activated first.

b. No additional mobilization/demobilization will be paid to the Contractor for Option Item work performed within the work region. The Contractor shall commence performance of optional work no more than three calendar days after the time the Contractor receives the Government's Notice to Proceed with the optional work.

We, the Principal and Surety(ies) are firmly bound to the United States of America (hereinafter called the Government) in the above penal sum. For payment of the penal sum, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors, administrators, and successors, jointly and severally. However, where the Sureties are corporations acting as co-sureties, we, the Sureties, bind ourselves in such sum "jointly and severally" as well as "severally" only for the purpose of allowing a joint action or actions against any or all of us. For all other purposes, each Surety binds itself, jointly and severally with the Principal, for the payment of the sum shown opposite the name of the Surety. If no limit of liability is indicated, the limit of liability is the full amount of the penal sum.

CONDITIONS:

The Principal has submitted the bid identified above.

THEREFORE:

The above obligation is void if the Principal - (a) upon acceptance by the Government of the bid identified above, within the period specified therein for acceptance (sixty (60) days if no period is specified), executes the further contractual documents and gives the bond(s) required by the terms of the bid as accepted within the time specified (ten (10) days if no period is specified) after receipt of the forms by the principal; or (b) in the event of failure to execute such further contractual documents and give such bonds, pays the Government for any cost of procuring the work which exceeds the amount of the bid.

Each Surety executing this instrument agrees that its obligation is not impaired by any extension(s) of the time for acceptance of the bid that the Principal may grant to the Government.

Notice to the surety(ies) of extension(s) is waived. However, waiver of the notice applies only to extensions aggregating not more than sixty (60) calendar days in addition to the period originally allowed for acceptance of the bid.

WITNESS:

The Principal and Surety(ies) executed this bid bond and affixed their seals on the above date.
