February 22, 1993 <br /> 2. SUBMISSION AND AWARD OF BIDS <br /> Sealed bids in single copy for the work described herein will be received until the date and <br /> time specified on the Invitation and Bid form at the Colorado Division of Purchasing, 225 <br /> East Sixteenth Avenue, Suite 900, Denver, Colorado 80203, and at that time publicly <br /> opened. <br /> Bids shall be submitted on the INVITATION AND BID form furnished. Bids must be <br /> manually signed in ink. All bid items must be priced or the bid will be disqualified. In case <br /> of error in the extension of price, the unit price shall govern. If a Bid Schedule is included <br /> it must also be returned with the bid. The quantities listed on which unit prices are <br /> requested are estimates only. The prices indicated on the Bid Schedule and included in the <br /> Contract Documents shall include the cost of all labor and materials, equipment and <br /> services, and all other expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Alternate bids <br /> will not be accepted. <br /> This is a sealed bid. Telegraphic or electronic (FAX, Western Union, Telex, etc.) bids will <br /> NOT be accepted directly in the offices of the Division of Purchasing in response to this bid. <br /> Award will be made with reasonable promptness, by written notice to the low responsive <br /> and responsible bidder whose bid meets the requirements and criteria set forth in the <br /> Invitation for bid. These criteria will include, but not be limited to the lowest GRAND <br /> TOTAL PRICE, corrected if necessary for errors in price extension and/or addition, on the <br /> Bidder's equipment if a List of Equipment Offered is required with the bid, and capability <br /> to meet the performance time requirements. The GRAND TOTAL PRICE will be used <br /> for comparing bids only. <br /> Although there are many circumstances under which a bidder might be found "not <br /> responsible", any contractor who has had direct or indirect association with a firm that has <br /> had a permit revoked or a bond forfeited by the Division of Minerals and Geology or the <br /> Mined Land Reclamation Board or Division will be considered not responsible, and not <br /> eligible to be awarded any bid. Any firm listed in the federal Office of Surface Mining's <br /> Applicant Violator System will be considered not responsible. <br /> All bid openings are open to the public and bidders are welcome to attend and record the <br /> bid results. A written tabulation of the Bid results will be available to those bidders who <br /> submit a clearly-visible, self-addressed, stamped envelope with their bid. Please allow two <br /> weeks for receipt of Bid results. Telephone requests cannot be honored because of time <br /> constraints. <br /> 3. CONDITIONS AFFECTING THE WORK <br /> In addition to examining the drawings and specifications, completion schedule, and other <br /> instructions, bidders shall visit the site and take such other steps as may be reasonably <br /> necessary to ascertain the nature and location of the work, including average climatic <br /> conditions and the general and local conditions which can affect the work or the cost <br /> thereof. Failure to do so will not relieve bidders from responsibility for estimating properly <br /> the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work. <br /> 20 <br />
