WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS: Bids may be withdrawn on written or telegraphic or facsimile request received from bidders prior to the time fixed for opening.

No segregated bids or assignments will be considered. QUALIFICATION OF BIDDER: The Owner may make such investigation as he deems necessary to determine the ability of the bidder to perform the work, and the bidder shall furnish to the Owner all such information and data for this purpose as the Owner may request.

The amount of said forfeiture shall not exceed the total amount deposited as security and shall be forfeited to the Owner as liquidated damages and not as a penalty.

TIME OF COMPLETION: Bidder must agree to commence work on or before a date to be specified in a written “Notice to Proceed” of the Owner and to substantially complete the project within 180 consecutive calendar days thereafter. CONDITIONS OF THE WORK: Each bidder must inform himself fully of the conditions relating to the construction of the project and employment of labor hereon. Failure to do so will not relieve a successful bidder of his obligation to furnish all material and labor necessary to carry out the provisions of his contract. Insofar as possible, the contractor, in carrying out his work, must employ such methods necessary to prevent any interruption of or interference with the work of any other contractor. ADDENDA AND INTERPRETATIONS: No interpretation of the meaning of the plans, specifications or other contract documents will be made to any bidder orally.

Failure of any such bidder to receive any such addenda or interpretation shall not relieve such bidder from any obligation under his bid as submitted.

METHOD OF AWARD: If the order of acceptance of alternates is not a factor in determining the low bidder, the Owner may accept any or all alternates in any order of preference. If the acceptance or rejection of alternates or the order of acceptance of alternates is a factor the low bidder will be determined by the application of alternates in the order listed on the proposal form, at the time bids are opened, to the extent that the amount of budgeted funds will permit. After the low bidder has been so established, the Owner may elect to revise the extent or order of acceptance of alternates or may adjust the amount of budgeted funds so long as the selection of the low bidder is not affected. The Owner reserves the right to reject any and all bids. OBLIGATION OF BIDDER: At the time of the opening of bids, each bidder will be presumed to have inspected the site and to have read and to be thoroughly familiar with the plans and contract documents (including all addenda). The failure or omission of any bidder to examine any form instrument or document shall in no way relieve any bidder from any obligation in respect of his bid. Bidders shall carefully examine the documents and the construction site to obtain first-hand knowledge of the existing conditions, make actual examination of site, existing construction, and construction conditions prior to submission of bids. Examination of conditions includes sizes, quantities, functions, etc. Examination prior to bidding is the Contractor’s responsibility. Coordinate requests for examination through: Tim Mitchel, Ph.

NOTICE OF REQUIREMENTS FOR AFFIDAVIT OF NONCOLLUSION: The successful bidder must execute and submit with the contract the affidavit pertaining to noncollusion. Failure to execute the required form properly shall result in delay of execution of the contract. SUBSTITUTIONS AND PRODUCT OPTIONS: Where material is mentioned in the Specifications by trade name or manufacturer’s name, the same is not a preference for said material, but the intention of using said name is to establish a type or quality of material. Material of other trade names or of other manufacturer’s which is equivalent or better in type or quality shall be submitted for approval 10 days prior to bidding and shall be accompanied by actual full sized samples and such technical data as the Architect may need in order to compare the proposed materials with the materials which were specified.

Before submitting materials or equipment for approval, the Contractor shall ascertain that it can be installed in the manner indicated and in the space available, and that it complies with the requirement of the Contract. Failure of the Contractor to do so shall not relieve him of the responsibility for furnishing suitable materials and equipment. The Owner reserves the right to reject any proposed substitution which is submitted after bidding. IRREVOCABLE LETTERS OF CREDIT: The successful bidder for contracts in amounts of $100,000 or less may provide an irrevocable letter of credit for each bond in lieu of the performance payment bond, statutory bond, and the warranty bond as herein specified.

Add the following sub-subparagraph 1.2.3.1: In the event of conflicts or discrepancies among the Contract Documents, interpretations will be based on the following priorities: 1. The Agreement. 2. Addenda, with those of later date having precedence over those of earlier date. 3. The Supplementary Conditions. 4. The General Conditions of the Contract for Construction. 5. Drawings and Specifications. In the case of an inconsistency between Drawings and Specifications or within either Document not clarified by addendum, the better quality of greater quantity of Work shall be provided in accordance with the Architect’s interpretation.

Omit subparagraphs 2.1.2 and 2.2.1 in their entireties. Subparagraph 2.2.5 is hereby modified as follows: The Contractor will be furnished, free of charge, 10 copies of the drawings and specifications for the execution of the work. REFER ARTICLE 3: Add the following to subparagraph 3.3.1: No work shall be done for any trade during “off hours,” weekends, or any other time aside from the Owner’s normal working hours, unless the Contractor’s Superintendent is present, and unless express permission is obtained from the Owner for accomplishing such work.

If a Contractor desires to endeavor to take advantage of this sales tax relief, the Owner will designate the Contractor as an agent of the Owner for the purpose of purchasing tangible personal property. This agency will be created for the sole and exclusive purpose of avoiding sales tax and will contain a provision stating that it is so limited and that the Owner is not responsible to the vendor or any other person dealing with the designated agent for the payment of the purchase price.

Subparagraph 4.3.7 is hereby modified as follows: Omit “(2) an order by the Owner to stop the Work where the Contractor was not at fault,” “(4) failure of payment by the Owner, (5) termination of the Contract by the Owner, (6) Owner’s suspension,” from this subparagraph and add “as determined by the Owner” after “reasonable grounds.” Subparagraph 4.3.8.1 is hereby modified as follows: Omit “of cost and” from this subparagraph and add the following: “Requests for time extensions shall be submitted with each request for progress payment and shall cover the same time period as the Application for Payment. peu35801_app.qxd 8/21/01 11:27 AM Page 543 Appendix Example Bid Documents Failure to submit such request waives Contractor’s right to claim time extensions for that designated period. It is agreed that the Owner’s liability for delay or any cost incurred therefrom is limited to granting a time extension to the Contractor, and there is no other obligation expressed or implied on the part of the Owner to the Contractor for the delay or any cost incurred therefrom. Time extension requests may not be acted upon until substantial completion of the project has been reached as defined in Article 9.8 of the General Conditions.

Upon approval of the changes by the Owner a Formal Change Order will be prepared and issued to the Contractor for the stated amount. Processing time for change orders normally requires several weeks from the time the Contractor’s estimate is received by the Architect until issuance of formal change order. Processing change orders of a critical nature may be expedited with permission of the Owner. Section 121 of the STATE Public Competitive Bidding Act of 1974, as amended provides that all change orders shall contain a unit price and total for each of the following items: a. All material with cost per item. b. Itemization of all labor with number of hours per operation and cost per hour. c.

Approximately three weeks are required for processing of a properly prepared application. All stored materials must be on the project site to be certified for payment. Omit subparagraph 9.6.1 and replace with the following: 9.6.1 After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment, the Owner shall make monthly progress payments amounting to ninety percent (90%) of the portion of the contract sum properly allocable to labor, materials and equipment incorporated into the work or suitably stored at the site or at some other location agreed upon in writing by the parties up to five days prior to the date on which the application for payment is submitted, less the aggregate of all payments in each case.
