Bidder’s Address

Date and Time of Bid Opening

Bid Enclosed: STREET PAVING AND MAINTENANCE

Each bidder shall submit three (3) copies of the completed bid packet.

The Owner may consider informal any bid not prepared and submitted in accordance with the

provisions hereof and may waive any informality or reject any and all bids. Any bid received after the

time and date specified shall not be considered.

QUALIFICATIONS OF BIDDERS

The Owner may make such investigations as he/she deems necessary to determine the ability of

the Bidder to supply the necessary equipment, and the Bidder shall furnish to the Owner all such

information and data for the purpose as the Owner may request. The Owner reserves the right to reject

any bid if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of, such Bidder fails to satisfy the Owner that such

Bidder is properly qualified to carry out the obligation of the contract. Conditional bids will not be

accepted.

METHOD OF AWARD - LOWEST QUALIFIED BIDDER

If at the time this contract is to be awarded the lowest base bid submitted by a responsible

Bidder does not exceed the amount of funds, then estimated by the Owner as available to finance the

contract; the contract will be awarded on the bid. If such bid exceeds such amount, the Owner may

reject all bids or may award the contract with the lowest bid with such deductible alternatives to

produce a net amount, which is within the available funds.

Multiple awards may be made from this contract. Awards will be based on the low evaluated

Bidder per schedule.

The Owner reserves the right to determine the low Bidder by durability and maintenance costs

over the life of the product. This may be done by means of experience or research. Initial cost may not

determine low bid. In case of error or discrepancy in the mathematics of the bid price, the unit prices

shall prevail.

QUANTITIES AND LENGTH OF CONTRACT

This is a yearly contract at unit prices. Exact quantities may vary—estimated quantities

contained in the bid form are for evaluation purposes only.

This contract is for an approximate one (1) year period from the date of award to June 30, 2027,

and may be renewed on an annual basis for two (2) additional years if all terms, conditions, and prices

remain unchanged and both parties are in written agreement. Prices contained herein are to be firm for

the term of the contract except for any changes in the TDOT Liquid Asphalt index that would result in a

price adjustment. The Owner reserves the right to re-bid anytime during the term of the contract.

OBLIGATION OF BIDDERS

At the time of the opening of bids, each Bidder will be presumed to have read and to be

thoroughly familiar with the specifications. The failure or omission of any Bidder to examine all the
