Bond Information: Attendants must be fully bonded (Fidelity Bond) or insured to cover funds not received by the designated Government agency as provided for in the specifications. Attendant is required to furnish to the Government original proof of such bond. All contractors are required to be bonded for no less than $5,000 (both names shall be on the bond). The attendant will not begin work until proof of such bond has been furnished. Proof of bond must be provided to the Government no later than the day of orientation.

b) Furnishing a certified or cashier’s check, bank draft, post office money order, or currency, in an amount equal to the penal sum of the bond;

c) Furnishing an irrevocable, unconditional letter of credit.

These services are available through a local insurance company or bank.
