A bid guarantee in an amount not less than 5 percent of the total bid price must be submitted in the form of a firm commitment, such as a bid bond, bank money order, certified check or cashier's check. Checks or money orders should be made payable to the Treasurer, State of Colorado. If a bid bond is submitted, the State form shall be used. An Irrevocable letter of credit is not acceptable as a bid guarantee. Bid guarantees, other than bid bonds, will be returned (a) to unsuccessful bidders as soon as practicable after the opening of bids, and (b) to the successful bidder upon execution of such further contractual documents and bonds (including any necessary coinsurance or reinsurance agreements) as may be required by the bid as accepted. Failure to furnish a bid guarantee in the proper form and amount by the time set for opening of bids may be cause for rejection of the bid.
