The cost of all mobilization, preparatory work and operations for the multiple movements of personnel, equipment, supplies, and incidentals to the various project sites must be included in the various bid items, and no extra compensation will be paid to Contractor.

B. The Bidder shall state for each item on the Schedule of Bid Prices form, in clearly legible figures, the Base Bid, the alternates, and the unit price and item total or lump sum, as the case may be, for which he/she proposes to supply labor, materials, and equipment and to perform the Work. Bids must not contain any erasures, interlineations, strike-throughs or other corrections unless the same are suitably authenticated by affixing in the margin immediately opposite such erasure or correction the initials of the person(s) signing the Bid. If any Bid, or portion thereof, is determined by the City to be illegible, ambiguous or inconsistent, City may reject such a Bid as being non-responsive.

Page 14 of 182 ends

prevail; however, if the unit price is ambiguous, unintelligible, or uncertain for any cause, or is omitted, or is the same amount as the entry for the item total, then the item total shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price. Where so indicated by the makeup of the Bid Form, sums shall be expressed in both words and figures, and in case of discrepancy between the two, the amount written in words shall govern.

D. All requested Alternates, if any, shall be Bid. See the Schedule of Bid Prices for more information and the list of Bid Alternates, if any. If no change in the Base Bid is required, enter “No Change.”

7. BID SECURITY
A.

B. All bonds must be issued by a California admitted surety insurer with the minimum A.M Best Company Financial strength rating of “A:VII” or better. Bonds issued by a California admitted surety not listed on Treasury Circular 570 will be deemed accepted unless specifically rejected by the City. Bonds issued from admitted surety insurers not listed in Treasury Circular 570 must be accompanied by all documents enumerated in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.660. All such bonds must be accompanied by a power of attorney from the surety company authorizing the person executing the bond to sign on behalf of the company. If the bonds are executed outside the State of California, all copies of the bonds must be countersigned by a California representative of the surety. The signature of the person executing the bond on behalf of Surety must be acknowledged by a Notary Public as the signature of the person designated in the power of attorney.

C. Bid Security shall be in an amount not less than 10% of the Base Bid. Any Bid submitted without Bid Security will be rejected as non-responsive. The Bid Security shall be given as a guarantee that the successful Bidder will execute the Contract and will provide the insurance, bonds and other required forms within fourteen (14) calendar days after award of the Contract. Bidders will be entitled to return of Bid Security except when a successful Bidder forfeits its Bid Security. A forfeit may occur, for example, if the successful Bidder withdraws its Bid prior to the expiration of ninety (90) calendar days after award of the Contract; attempts to withdraw its Bid when the requirements of Public Contract Code § 5101 et seq. are not met; or refuses or fails to execute the Contract and provide the required bonds, insurance or certificates within fourteen (14) calendar days after award of the Contract. In any one or more of these events, if City awards the Contract for the Work to the next lowest responsible Bidder, the amount of the original lowest Bidder’s security shall be applied to the Contract Price differential between the lowest Bid and the second lowest Bid. Any surplus will be returned to the original

Page 15 of 182 ends

lowest Bidder. If the City rejects all other Bids presented and re-advertises, the lowest Bidder’s Bid Security may be used to offset the City’s cost of re-advertising and receiving new Bids. In that case, the surplus if any, will be returned to the original lowest Bidder.

D. The Bid Security shall be held for ninety (90) calendar days after the award of the Contract or until posting by the successful Bidder of the payment and performance bonds, proof of insurance, return of executed copies of the Contract and necessary certification(s), whichever first occurs, after which time the Bid Security will be returned to all Bidders.

E. If a Bid Bond is to be submitted, Bidder shall use the form entitled "Bid Bond" contained in the Bidding Documents, which Bid Bond shall be properly executed and acknowledged by the Bidder and by a corporate surety authorized to transact such business in the State of California.

F. Any alteration of said form of Bid Bond, or imperfection in the execution thereof, as herein required, will render it informal and may, at the option of the City, result in the rejection of the Bid under which the Bid Bond is submitted.

8. BIDDER'S AND SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS’ STATEMENTS OF

QUALIFICATIONS
A. Each Bidder shall be required to complete, execute and submit with its Bid, the form entitled "Bidder's Statement of Qualifications." Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 22 herein, the Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications shall not be public records. All information required by a Bidder’s or Specialty Contractor Statement of Qualifications shall be completely and fully provided. If no information is to be filled in a blank space, then write "none." Any Bid not accompanied by a Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications form completed with all information required may render the Bid non-responsive. If the City determines that any information provided by a Bidder in the Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications is false or misleading, or is incomplete so as to be false or misleading, the City may reject the Bid submitted by such Bidder as being nonresponsive.

B. A responsible Bidder is a Bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity and experience to satisfactorily perform fully the requirements of the contract documents. In selecting the lowest responsible Bidder, consideration will be given not only to the Bidder’s financial standing but also to the general competency of the Bidder for the performance of the work covered by the Bid including, but not limited to, the experience of the Bidder in construction of public buildings for public agencies. By submitting a Bid, each Bidder agrees that the City, in determining the successful Bidder and its eligibility for the award, may consider the Bidder’s experience with similar types of construction projects and facilities, conduct and performance under other

Page 16 of 182 ends

contracts, financial condition, reputation in the industry, and other factors which could affect the Bidder’s performance of the work.

9. DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS
A. Subcontractor Listing. On the Designation of Subcontractors form, the Bidder shall list each Subcontractor whom the Bidder must disclose under the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practice Act, Public Contract Code Section 4104. The Bidder shall provide: each Subcontractor’s name, the trade and type of work that the Subcontractor will perform, the location (address) of the Subcontractor’s place of business, each Subcontractor’s license number, each Subcontractor’s public works contractor registration number, and the dollar value of each Subcontractor’s labor or services. If additive Alternate Bid Items are included in the Bidding Documents, the Bidder shall identify each Subcontractor performing additive Alternate Bid Items, when such Work or the combination of base Contract Work and Alternate Work exceeds one-half of one percent of the total Bid Amount.

B. Subcontractors’ Licenses. At the time of the Bid Deadline and at all times during performance of the Work, each listed Subcontractor shall possess a current and active California Contractor’s license appropriate for the portion of the Work listed for such Subcontractor and hold all specialty certifications required for such Work.

C. Disqualification of a Subcontractor. The City has the right to review the suitability and qualifications of any Subcontractor proposed by the Bidder. As part of this review, the City may request a Bidder to submit additional information about one or more of the listed Subcontractors including, but not limited to a statement detailing the Subcontractor’s experience with pertinent information as to similar projects and other evidence of the Subcontractor’s qualifications. If requested, the Bidder shall provide the information to the City within the time specified in the City’s written request. After due investigation, if the City has a reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor, the City may, before giving the notice of award, require the apparent successful Bidder to submit an acceptable substitute.

The City’s disqualification of a Subcontractor does not disqualify a Bidder.

However, prior to and as a condition to award of the Contract, the successful Bidder shall substitute a properly licensed and qualified Subcontractor without an adjustment of the Bid Price.

D. Work of Subcontractors. The organization or arrangement of the Specifications and Drawings do not limit the extent of the Work for the Contract Documents.

Accordingly, all Bidders are encouraged to disseminate all of the Specifications, Drawings and other Contract Documents to all persons or entities submitting subbids to the Bidder. The omission of any portion or item of Work from the Bid or from sub-bids, which is reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents, will not be a basis for adjustment of the Contract Price or the Contract Time.

Page 17 of 182 ends

E. Ineligible Subcontractors. The successful Bidder is prohibited from performing Work on the Project with any Subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public works project pursuant to California Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or 1777.7. In submitting its Bid, the Bidder certifies that it has investigated the eligibility of each and every listed Subcontractor and has determined that none is ineligible to perform work pursuant to the above code provisions.

10. CONTRACTOR’S AFFIDAVIT OF NON-COLLUSION
An Affidavit of Non-Collusion in the form provided by the City shall be signed under penalty of perjury, certifying that the Bid is not the result of and has not been influenced by collusion. Bidder shall submit this form with its Bid. Any Bid made without such affidavit, or believed to be made in violation of the requirements set forth in the affidavit form, may be rejected.

11. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
The Bidder shall submit to its insurance company or insurance agent the Insurance Requirements in this Specification and the Contract Documents. The insurance company’s underwriter or agent must complete the Insurance Requirements documentation which states that the insurer’s underwriter or agent will furnish the City with the required insurance documents within fourteen (14) days after the Bidder’s having been notified of the Contract’s award. The Bidder shall submit this form with its Bid. Any Bid made without this statement, or made with an incomplete statement, may be rejected.

12. EXAMINATION OF DRAWINGS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND SITE OF WORK A. The Bidder shall examine carefully the site of the Work contemplated and the Drawings and Specifications. The submission of a Bid will be conclusive evidence that the Bidder has investigated and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered, as to the character, quality, and quantities of Work to be performed and materials to be furnished, the difficulties to be encountered, and to the requirements of the Drawings, Specifications, and other Contract Documents. The Bidder shall ascertain the locations of the existing utility services, and other underground facilities, and provide for carrying out its operations so as to cause the minimum possible inconvenience to the occupants of properties along any streets affected. All Work and costs involved in the safeguarding of the properties of others shall be at the expense of the Bidder to whom the Contract may be awarded.

B. The Bidder hereby certifies that it has examined the local conditions, has read each and every clause of the Contract Documents, and that it has included all costs necessary to complete the specified Work in its Bid prices, and the Bidder agrees that if it is awarded the Contract, it will make no claim against the City based upon ignorance of local conditions or misunderstanding of any of the provisions of the Contract. Should the conditions turn out otherwise than the Bidder anticipated, the Bidder agrees to assume all risks incident thereto.

Page 18 of 182 ends

13. PRICES AND PAYMENTS

15. SUBSTITUTIONS
