This document is a set of specifications and guidelines for bidders interested in submitting a bid for a project with the City's Design Engineering Division of Public Works & Utilities. The document outlines various requirements and procedures that bidders must adhere to. Section 1 provides information on how to access the document, stating that it can be reviewed at the Design Engineering or Purchasing Division, and that the Standard Conditions are available on the city's website. Section 2 discusses the requirement for bid security, which can be in the form of a certified check, cashier's check, or bidder's bond. It states that if alternates are submitted, only one bid security will be required based on the highest gross bid. The bid security will be returned to unsuccessful bidders when the bid is awarded, and to successful bidders upon delivery and acceptance of the equipment or merchandise, or upon approval of the executed contract and bonds. The city has the right to retain the bid security until a contract is executed, the specified time has elapsed, or all bids have been rejected. The bid security will be forfeited to the city as liquidated damages if the bidder fails to comply with the accepted proposal and specifications, or fails to enter into a contract or provide sufficient bonds or insurance. Section 3 states that by submitting a bid, the bidder represents that they have read and understood the specification documents, and have examined the local conditions under which the work is to be done. Section 4 addresses the clarification of specification documents, stating that bidders should promptly notify the Purchasing Agent of any ambiguity, inconsistency, or error they discover. Bidders can request clarification or interpretation of the documents in writing, and any changes to the documents will be made through written addenda. Oral interpretations or changes will not be binding. Section 5 explains the concept of addenda, which are written instruments that modify or interpret the specification documents. Bidders must ensure they have received all addenda and acknowledge receipt on the proposal form. Section 6 requires bidders to certify that their prices have been determined independently and without collusion or attempts to restrict competition. Section 7 prohibits bidders from lobbying or promoting their bid with City Council members or staff, except in City-sponsored inquiries or presentations. Section 8 addresses brand names, stating that they are used to establish a grade or quality of material, and bidders can propose alternate items that are equal to or better than the specified product. Bidders must provide complete information and explanations for any variances from the specification document. Section 9 discusses demonstrations and samples, stating that bidders may be required to demonstrate the proposed item(s) within seven days of a request from the City. If the item is not available in the area, the bidder must bear the expense of sending City personnel to view and inspect the item. If the item is small and malleable, the bidder must provide a sample, which will be returned at the bidder's expense. Section 10 pertains to the delivery of all equipment or merchandise. Bidders are required to state the date upon which they can make delivery. The City reserves the right to determine the final delivery date.
