Substantial completion is required within 60 days from Notice to Proceed; final completion is due 30 days thereafter. Liquidated damages are assessed at $500 per calendar day for delays beyond 30 days from substantial completion. All work must comply with current building code and City of Orem Construction Standards and Specifications. The contractor is responsible for obtaining building permits and coordinating inspections and submittals.

Bidders must submit a bid bond equal to 5% of the total bid amount and, upon award, provide performance and payment bonds each in the amount of 100% of the contract price with an approved corporate surety. Required insurance includes commercial general liability of $2 million combined single limit per occurrence, business auto liability of $2 million combined single limit per accident, and workers' compensation with employer's liability limits of $1 million per accident. The City of Orem and its officials, officers, employees, and volunteers must be named as additional insureds on all liability policies.
