Mounted or attached equipment shall be that customarily manufactured for the <br /> respective size of equipment being offered. Size will be determined by maximum flywheel <br /> horsepower ratings at sea level and are the minimum size that shall be furnished and operated. <br /> Equipment must be in good operating condition and must be maintained in good operating condition <br /> by the CONTRACTOR throughout the life of the contract. The PROJECT MANAGER shall be the <br /> sole judge of whether equipment is or is not in "good operating condition". <br /> The number of hours indicated in the Special Conditions and on the Invitation and Bid Sheet are <br /> estimated. It is impossible to determine in advance the actual number of hours that the equipment <br /> will be required to be used, or to guarantee that any equipment rental will be necessary. <br /> Calculations for FHP Adjustments <br /> Equipment of any size above the minimum flywheel horsepower may be furnished subject to the <br /> approval of the PROJECT MANAGER, In order to evaluate the bids for various sizes of equipment <br /> proposed to be furnished by the bidders, the unit price inserted in the bid must be adjusted. The <br /> bidder may figure the unit price to insert in the Invitation and Bid by doing the following <br /> .computation for the applicable bid item: <br /> (Rate you wa t aer hour► X (Reauested FHP) - Price on Bid Schedule <br /> (The FHP of your machine) <br /> EXAMPLE: If the desired unit rate to be received is $70.00/hour for a 215 FHP bulldozer and the <br /> minimum FHP requested is 140, then multiply $70.00 x 140/215 = $45.50 per hour. <br /> Use that calculated amount (045.50 in the example) as the'unit price on the Invitation and Bid. If <br /> the CONTRACTOR plans to furnish a machine other than the minimum FHP listed on the Invitation <br /> and Bid, he must write the FHP of the machine, in ink, under the bid item on the Invitation and Bid, <br /> or include it on the List of Equipment Offered form. <br /> After the successful bidder has furnished evidence of the FHP capacity of the equipment to be <br /> used, the amount bid for Equipment Rental will be modified by reversing the above procedure to <br /> reflect the unit price desired by the CONTRACTOR with a corresponding reduction in the quantity <br /> of hours required. This modified hourly rate and number of hours will appear on the Purchase <br /> Order. <br /> 4 <br />
