Once bids have been opened, they shall remain firm for a period of sixty (60) calendar days.
More than one bid from an individual, a firm or partnership, a corporation, or association under the same names shall not be considered.
Business entities are advised of their responsibility to file an annual disclosure statement of political contributions with the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.27 if they receive contracts in excess of $50,000 from public entities in a calendar year. Business entities are responsible for determining if filing is necessary. Additional information on this requirement is available from ELEC at 888-313-3532 or http://www.elec.state.nj.us/
As the township must comply with the notice requirements set forth in N.J.S.A. 40A:11-23(c) Official Requests for Bid Packages are available from the owner’s website at http://www.waynetownship.com/purchasing-bid-list.html at no cost to the prospective respondents. All addenda are posted on this site. Potential respondents are cautioned that they are responding at their own risk if a third party supplied the specifications that may or may not complete. The owner is not responsible for third party supplied documents. Respondents are urged to register their contact information on the website so any addenda to these specifications can be sent to them.
Bids may be rejected for any of the following reasons:
A. The bidder understands and agrees that its bid is submitted on the basis of the specifications prepared by the owner. The bidder accepts the obligation to become familiar with these specifications. All goods included in specifications and work shall be new and unused.
B. Bidders are expected to examine the specifications and related bid documents with care and observe all their requirements. Ambiguities, errors, or omissions noted by bidders should be promptly reported in writing to the appropriate official. Any prospective bidder who wishes to challenge a bid specification shall file such challenges in writing with the contracting agent no less than three business days prior to the opening of the bids. Challenges filed after that time shall be considered void and having no impact on the contracting unit or the award of a contract pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:11-13. In the event the bidder fails to notify the owner of such ambiguities, errors or omissions, the bidder shall be bound by the requirements of the specifications and the bidder’s submitted bid.
C. Wherever the Technical Specifications section duplicates or conflicts with the Township of Wayne standard Instructions to Bidders & Statutory Requirements section, the latter shall be utilized.
All interpretations, clarifications and any supplemental instructions will be in the form of written addenda to the specifications and notice will be provided through an advertisement in Township of Wayne Website, sent to potential bidders who obtained a copy of the bid package, or had submitted a bid submission. All addenda so issued shall become part of the specification and bid documents and shall be acknowledged by the bidder in the bid by completing the Acknowledgement of Addenda Confirmation Question via the Vendor Questionnaire. The owner’s interpretations or corrections thereof shall be final.
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:11-23(c)(1) when issuing addenda, the owner shall provide required notice prior to the official receipt of bids to any person who has submitted a bid or who has received a bid package. They will be sent from notifications@procurenow.com. It is recommended that bidders include this address in the recipient email contact list to ensure it is not routed to a junk email folder.
A. If the amount shown in words and its equivalent in figures do not agree, the written words shall be binding. Ditto marks are not considered writing or printing and shall not be used.
B. In the event that there is a discrepancy between the unit prices and the extended totals, the unit prices shall prevail. In the event there is an error of the summation of the extended totals, the computation by the owner of the extended totals shall govern.
A. Brand names and/or descriptions used in these specifications are intended to acquaint bidders with the types of goods and services desired and will be used as a standard by which goods and services offered as equivalent will be evaluated.
B. The use of brand names is not intended to preclude bidders from proposing equivalent goods or services.
C. When a specification uses “brand name,” “equivalent,” the listed brand name shall serve as a reference or point of comparison for functional or operational characteristic desired for the good or service being requested. Where a bidder submits an equivalent, it shall be the responsibility of the bidder to document the equivalence claim. Failure to submit such documentation shall be grounds for rejection of the claim of equivalence.
D. Variations between the goods and services described and the goods and services offered are to be fully identified and described by the bidder on a separate sheet and submitted with the bid proposal form. Vendor literature WILL NOT suffice in explaining exceptions to these specifications. In the absence of any exceptions by the bidder, it will be presumed and required that the goods and services as described in the bid specification be provided or performed. Bidder exceptions must be formally submitted via the Vendor Questionnaire and accepted by the Township.
E. It is the responsibility of the bidder to document and/or demonstrate the equivalency of the goods and services offered. The owner reserves the right to evaluate the equivalency of the goods and services.
F. In submitting its bid, the bidder certifies that the goods and services to be furnished will not infringe upon any valid patent or trademark and that the successful bidder shall, at its own expense, defend any and all actions or suits charging such infringement, and will save the owner harmless from any damages resulting from such infringement.
G. The contractor shall guarantee any or all goods and services supplied under these specifications. Defective or inferior goods shall be replaced at the expense of the contractor. The contractor will be responsible for return freight or restocking charges.
A. The owner is exempt from any local, state or federal sales, use or excise tax. The owner will not pay for New Jersey State Sales and Use Tax that are included in any invoices.
B. Estimated Quantities (Open-End Contracts): The owner has attempted to identify the item(s) and the estimated amounts of each item bid to cover its requirements; however, past experience shows that the amount ordered may be different than that submitted for bidding. The right is reserved to decrease or increase the quantities specified in the specifications pursuant to N.J.A.C. 5:30-11.2 and 11.10. NO MINIMUM PURCHASE IS IMPLIED OR GUARANTEED.
C. Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining any applicable permits or licenses from any government entity that has jurisdiction to require the same. All bids submitted shall have included this cost. Township of Wayne fees shall be waived.
D. Bidders shall insert prices for furnishing goods and services required by these specifications. Prices shall be net, including any charges for packing, crating, containers, etc. All transportation charges shall be fully prepaid by the contractor, F.O.B. destination and placement at locations specified by the owner. As specified, placement may require inside deliveries. No additional charges will be allowed for any transportation costs resulting from partial shipments made for the contractor's convenience.
E. In the event of a public emergency declared at the local, state, or federal level prior to the expiration of the contract, if the owner opts to extend terms and conditions of the contract, the contractor agrees to extend the terms and conditions of this specification, whether existing or expiring for no longer than six months, for goods and/or services for the duration of the emergency.
F. Bidders shall take the current and possible future supply chain cost impacts and inflation into account when putting their bid pricing proposal together.

The Public Works Contractor Registration Act (N.J.S.A. 34:11-56.48, et seq.) requires all contractors, subcontractors, or lower tier subcontractors who bid on or engage in the performance of any work for which the payment of prevailing wage is required in the state of New Jersey to register with the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. The Contractor Registration Certificate is issued to both the company and its responsible representatives.
Effective July 1, 2024, the prevailing wage contract threshold for projects awarded by municipal governing bodies is $19,375.00. All contractors and subcontractors who bid on or engage in the performance of any construction-related public works projects in New Jersey must register with the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development. To register, a contractor must provide the State Department of Labor and Workforce Development with a full and accurately completed application form. The form is available online at https://www.njportal.com/lwd/pwcr
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 34:11-56.51, “No contractor shall bid on any contract for public work as defined in section 2 of P.L.1963, c.150 (C.34:11-56.26), or for which payment of the prevailing wage is required by any other provision of law, unless the contractor is registered pursuant to this act. No contractor shall list a subcontractor in a bid proposal for the contract unless the subcontractor is registered pursuant to P.L.1999, c.238 (C.34:11-56.48 et seq.) at the time the bid is made. No contractor or subcontractor, including a subcontractor not listed in the bid proposal, shall engage in the performance of any public work subject to the contract, unless the contractor or subcontractor is registered pursuant to that act.”
Pursuant to the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs, Division of Local Government Services Local Finance Notice 2021-20, “A contractor must have its Public Works Contractor Registration (PWCR) in place before responding to solicitations for bids on public works contracts subject to prevailing wage. All subcontractors listed in a bid proposal must possess a PWCR at the time the bid is made. However, failure to include a contractor’s or listed subcontractor’s PWCR certificate in a bid is not a fatal flaw that requires the bid to be thrown out. The PWCR certificate for the contractor and the certificates for any listed subcontractors shall be provided to the contracting unit prior to contract award and must be effective as of the date the contractor submitted its bid; a contracting unit cannot accept a contractor’s or subcontractor’s application to the Department of Labor for a PWCR certificate in lieu of a PWCR certificate. All non-listed subcontractors must obtain a PWCR certificate before starting work on a prevailing wage public works project.”
Bidders are notified that vendors currently suspended, debarred, or disqualified by the New Jersey Department of Labor and/or the New Jersey Division of Property Management and Construction are excluded from participation on this project. If bidder is on the State of New Jersey Department of Labor & Workforce Development Debarment List (list of firms and individuals that have been debarred in accordance with the provisions of the New Jersey Prevailing Wage Act from engaging in or bidding on Public Works Contracts in New Jersey) or have been debarred by the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Division of Wage and Hour Compliance, no contract shall be awarded.

Per N.J.S.A. 34:11-56.26(5): "’Public work’ means construction, reconstruction, demolition, alteration, custom fabrication, or repair work, or maintenance work, including painting and decorating, done under contract and paid for in whole or in part out of the funds of a public body, except work performed under a rehabilitation program. ‘Public work’ shall also mean construction, reconstruction, demolition, alteration, custom fabrication, or repair work, done on any property or premises, whether or not the work is paid for from public funds, if, at the time of the entering into of the contract the property or premises is owned by the public body or: (a) Not less than 55% of the property or premises is leased by a public body, or is subject to an agreement to be subsequently leased by the public body; and (b) The portion of the property or premises that is leased or subject to an agreement to be subsequently leased by the public body measures more than 20,000 square feet.”
Pursuant to the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs, Division of Local Government Services Local Finance Notice 2021-20, “P.L. 2019, c.158 and P.L. 2019, c.372 together authorize the Department of Labor to issue stop work orders against employers the Department determines are violating any State wage, benefit or tax law; including laws on prevailing wage, unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation insurance, and temporary disability insurance. Local government and school district public works projects are not exempt from such stop-work orders, which could negatively impact project timelines. P.L. 2019, c.158 allows general contractors to terminate from a project any subcontractor upon whom the Department of Labor imposes a stop-work order for violating the Prevailing Wage Act.”
Summary of the Certification Requirements under N.J.S.A. 52:32-44.1
Pursuant to state law any natural person, company, firm, association, corporation, or other entity prohibited, or “debarred,” from contracting with the federal government agencies, shall also be prohibited from contracting for public work in the state of New Jersey. This prohibition also extends to any affiliate organization(s) held by or subject to the control of an entity of that prohibited person or entity.
