The Contractor shall ensure that any equipment and/or vehicles that he/she places on the work site shall not be placed in such a position to interfere with access by any emergency vehicles or traffic by the public at-large. The Agency reserves the right to approve or reject (and demand the movement) of the placement of such equipment or vehicles at any time during the performance of the contracted work if, in the opinion of the Agency, the placement of such equipment or vehicles does interfere with such traffic.
By completing, executing and submitting the Form of Bid, the “bidder is thereby agreeing to abide by all terms and conditions pertaining to this IFB as issued by the Agency, including an agreement to execute the Sample Contractor Contract. Accordingly, the Agency has no responsibility to conduct after the submittal deadline any negotiations pertaining to the contract clauses already published.
The bid bond or guarantee shall be included in the bid package submitted by each bidder for any proposed fee that is greater than $350,000. This bond ensures that if awarded the contract, the bidder will accept and perform the work under the contract. It also ensures that the bidder will not attempt to withdraw or otherwise not fulfill the contract. Finally, the bid bond ensures that the bidder will execute the contractual documents that are required within the time specified in the solicitation or forfeit all or part of the guarantee. A certified check, bank draft, U.S. Government Bonds at par value, bid bond secured by an acceptable surety company, or other negotiable instrument may be accepted as a bid guarantee. If the successful bidder refuses to sign the contract after award, the bid bond is forfeited, and the award will then go to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder. If a bid bond or guarantee is not submitted with the bid, the Agency will reject the bid as non-responsive. The Agency anticipates that it will not return any bid bonds until the contract has been awarded and the required performance and payments bonds have been furnished until all bids have been rejected; or the time specified for acceptance of bids has expired. In fairness to the other bidders, the Agency may also choose to return the bid bonds if the Agency has a firm and reasonable assurance that the responsive and responsible bidder who submitted the lowest cost will execute the contract. For Capital Fund work, a bid guarantee from each bidder equivalent to 5 percent of the bid price is required for each construction contract over $100,000. see 24 CFR 905.316(d)(1) and one of the following:
The Agency will not execute a contract on the successful bidder's form–contracts will only be executed on the Agency form (please see Sample Contract) and by submitting a bid, the successful bidder agrees to do so (please note that the Agency reserves the right to amend this form as the Agency deems necessary). However, the Agency will during the IFB process (prior to the submittal deadline) consider any contract clauses that the proposer wishes to include therein and submits in writing a request for the Agency to do so; but the failure of the Agency to include such clauses does not give the successful bidder the right to refuse to execute the Agency's contract form. It is the responsibility of each prospective bidder to notify the Agency, in writing, prior to submitting a bid, of any contract clause that he/she is not willing to include in the final executed contract and abide by. The Agency will consider and respond to such written correspondence, and if the prospective bidder is not willing to abide by the Agency's response (decision), then that prospective bidder shall be deemed ineligible to submit a bid.

All Questions and requests for information may be addressed in writing to the CF. The CF will respond to all such inquiries in writing by addendum to all prospective bidders (i.e., firms or individuals that have obtained the IFB Documents).

This does not mean that prospective bidders may not call the CF—it simply means that, other than making replies to direct the prospective bidder where his/her answer has already been issued within the solicitation documents, the CF may not respond to the prospective bidder’s inquiries but will direct him/her to submit such inquiry in writing so that the CF may more fairly respond to all prospective bidders in writing by addendum.

A bidder is an aggrieved bidder only if the person or entity is one to whom a notice of selection of a competitive tier or notice of an intent to award has been, or should have been, sent and such person or entity has been erroneously denied the award of a Contract or has been erroneously eliminated from contract because:
The COO, or other person so delegated by the Agency’s Executive Director, shall consider a written protest and issue a written decision on the protest.

The Agency reserves the right to complete award to one firm only or to complete award to multiple firms. If award is made to more than one firm, such awards will be based on the Agency’s opinion that a firm can offer the Agency greater value for a certain service area as detailed within the scope of work. The Agency reserves the right to make such decision at any time during the ensuing contract period(s) meaning, the Agency could initially make award to one firm only, then, at any time during the ensuing contract period(s), decide to make an additional award(s) if the Agency decides such is in its best interests to do so.
The package exterior must clearly denote the above noted IFB number and must have the proposer’s name and return address. Proposals received after the published deadline will not be accepted.

Do not use Record Documents for construction purposes; the documents shall be protected from loss in a secure location; provide access to Record Documents for the Agency's reference.
Within our Agency Procurement Policy, it states that our Agency will:
If applicable, by receipt of a contract award it shall be the responsibility of the successful bidder to agree, certify, and eventually show proof that the work and products provided and installed by the contractor are in full compliance with the requirements of the noted Act. More information can be obtained at the following link: https://www.hud.gov/baba.
Do not fold or make any additional marks or notations on the documents to be submitted. Bidders are not allowed to change any requirements or forms contained herein, either by making or entering onto these documents or the documents submitted any revisions or additions; and if any such additional marks, notations or requirements are entered on any of the documents that are submitted to the Agency by the proposer, such may invalidate that proposal. If, after accepting such a proposal, the Agency decides that any such entry has not changed the intent of the proposal that the Agency intended to receive, the Agency may accept the proposal and the proposal shall be considered by the Agency as if those additional marks, notations or requirements were not entered on such. By accessing the noted Internet System, registering and downloading these documents, each prospective bidders that does so is thereby agreeing to confirm all notices that the Agency delivers to him/her as instructed, and by submitting a bid, the bidder is thereby agreeing to abide by all terms and conditions published herein and by addendum pertaining to this IFB.
An original certificate showing the proposer's professional liability and/or "errors and omissions" coverage (minimum of $1,000,000 each occurrence, general aggregate minimum limit of $2,000,000), with a commercially reasonable deductible (e.g., “commercially reasonable,” meaning at least 1% of the “general aggregate minimum” of the policy, with a maximum deductible amount of $50,000;
There shall be no escalation of the proposed firm-fixed fee amounts proposed and awarded at any time during the ensuing contract periods (except for, as designated by HUD, appropriate Agency-approved change orders awarded for “unforeseen conditions” within the general scope of work).
The payment bond is a method of ensuring that the Contractor pays the subcontractors and suppliers. By requiring payment bonds, the Agency avoids becoming entangled in disputes concerning payment of subcontractors and suppliers by the general contractor. The surety underwriting the payment bond ensures the contractors and suppliers will be paid. Often, performance and payment bonds are combined into a single document. Failure to pay subcontractors for work performed in commercial contracts may often lead to the subcontractor filing a mechanic’s lien against the property owners to obtain payment for services rendered. The Agency contract requires the payment bond to prevent this problem and ensure that no lien will be filed against any Agency building or lot of ground. As a reminder, Clause 24 of form HUD-5370, General Conditions of the Contract for Construction (Attachment G-1 attached hereto) clearly forbids the placement of any liens and is binding on any contractor, subcontractor, and material supplier.
Please note that the Agency has no legal right or ability to (and will not) at any time negotiate any clauses contained within ANY of the HUD forms included as a part of this IFB.
The Agency shall retain the right to demand and receive a change in personnel assigned to the work if the Agency believes that such change is in the best interest of the Agency and the completion of the contracted work.
An acceptable surety (bonding) company is one that is authorized to do business in the State of California and is acceptable to HUD and the Agency. The surety must be listed on the most recently published U.S. Treasury Circular 570 (often referred to as the T-List). Individual sureties are not permitted. Circular 570 is available from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Financial Management Service, Surety Bond Branch, Room #262C, 401 14th Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20227. The T-List may also be accessed on the Internet at: https://www.fiscal.treasury.gov/surety-bonds/circular-570.html.
It shall be the responsibility of each bidder to be aware of and to abide by all dates, times, conditions, requirements and specifications set forth within all applicable documents issued by the Agency, including the IFB document, and any addenda and required attachments submitted by the proposer. By virtue of completing, signing and submitting the completed documents, the proposer is stating his/her agreement to comply with all conditions and requirements set forth within those documents. Written notice from the bidder not authorized in writing by the CF to exclude any of the Agency requirements contained within the documents may cause that proposer to not be considered for award.
An original certificate showing the proposer’s automobile insurance coverage in a combined single limit of $1,000,000. For every vehicle utilized during the term of this program, when not owned by the entity, each vehicle must have evidence of automobile insurance coverage with limits of no less than $50,000/$100,000 and medical pay of $5,000.
The Agency will NOT pay any deposits or retainer fees as a result of award of the ensuing contract (such is not allowed per relevant HUD regulation). This means that the Agency will pay the successful proposer(s) for actual services provided only.
The Agency shall be the primary on-site point of contact for the Contractor pertaining to this work. The Contractor shall be free to converse and communicate with the Agency during or between visits; however, all requests for changes or decisions shall be submitted to the Agency and approved by the Executive Director after receipt and consideration of written request from the Agency. The Agency anticipates that it will typically make a decision in such matters within 3 work days of receipt, though such response time-frame may be shorter or longer depending on the situation; accordingly, the Contractor shall be required to submit such written requests in as timely a manner as reasonably possible. When construction commences, all communication must be directed to the designated Agency contact person only.
Upon completion of the project the Contractor must submit the following:
Before commencing work, the Contractor shall furnish the Owner with a certificate of insurance evidencing that Builder’s Risk (fire and extended coverage) Insurance on all work in place and/or materials stored at the building site(s) is in force. The Builder’s Risk Insurance shall be for the benefit of the Contractor and the Owner as their interests may appear and each shall be named in the policy or polices as insured. The Contractor in installing equipment supplied by the Owner shall carry insurance on such equipment from the time the Contractor takes possession thereof until the Contract work is accepted by the Owner. Policies shall furnish coverage at all times for the full cash value of all completed construction, as well as materials in place and/or stored at the site(s), whether or not partial payment has been made by the Owner. The Contractor may terminate this insurance on buildings as of the date taken over for occupancy by the Owner. The Contractor is not required to carry Builder’s Risk Insurance for modernization work which does not involve structural alterations or additions and where the Owner’s existing fire and extended coverage policy can be endorsed to include such work.
