A written tabulation of the Bid results will be <br />available to those bidders who submit a self-addressed stamped envelope with <br />their bid. Please allow two weeks for receipt of Bid results. Telephone <br />requests cannot be honored because of time constraints. <br />3. CONDITIONS AFFECTI~ THE WORK <br />In addition to examining the drawings and specifications, completion schedule, <br />and other instructions, bidders shall visit the site and take such other steps <br />as may be reasonably necessary to ascertain the nature and location of the <br />work, including average climatic conditions and the general and local <br />conditions which can affect the work or the cost thereof. Failure to do so <br />will not relieve bidders from responsibility for estimating properly the <br />difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work. <br />4. BID 80ND <br />A bid bond is required for all jobs. A bid guarantee in an amount not less <br />than 5 percent of the total bid price must be submitted in the form of a firm <br />commitment, such as a bid band, bank money order, certified check or cashier's <br />check. Checks or money orders should be made payable to the Treasurer, State <br />of Colorado. If a bid bond is submitted, the State form shall be used. An <br />irrevocable letter of credit is not acceptable as a bid guarantee. Bid <br />guarantees, other than bid bonds, will be returned (a) to unsuccessful bidders <br />as soon as practicable after the opening of bids, and (b) to the successful <br />bidder upon execution of such further contractual documents and bonds <br />(including any necessary coinsurance or reinsurance agreements) as may be <br />required by the bid as accepted. <br />Failure to furnish a bid guarantee in the proper form and amount by the time <br />set for opening of bids may be cause for rejection of the bid. <br />MLRD-2- <br />
