The City of Pittsburgh Office of Management & Budget, on behalf of the Department of Mobility & Infrastructure, is soliciting bids for the construction of the Forbes & Braddock/Penn & Highland traffic signals This work is the construction of a reinforced cement concrete sidewalk and curb ramps on an aggregate bed. Question Submission Deadline:June 3, 2024, 5:00pm Question Submission Method:All questions shall be submitted via "Q&A" feature on OpenGov. The City reserves the right to reject, for any reason, any or all Bids if it is in the best interest(s) of the City at the City's sole discretion, to do so. Contractor agrees that section 161.16(e) of the Pittsburgh Code of Ordinances, stating that Contractor must pay at least the applicable prevailing wages as will have been determined by the City Controller pursuant to the City Service Worker Prevailing Wage Ordinance, Title I, Article VII, Section 161.38(I)(B), as the same may be amended, and as will have been determined by the Secretary of Labor and Industry to the workers employed in the performance of any contract for public work subject to the Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Act approved August 15, 1961 (Act No. 442), as amended August 9, 1963 (Act No. 342), and the regulations issued pursuant thereto, and all supplements and amendments thereto, must be made a part of the Contract as fully as if attached hereto, and that Contractor will comply in all respects with the provisions thereof, insofar as the same implicates the Contract. If the City places a work order to total $25,000 or more, then state Prevailing Wages would be required to be paid by the vendor in the execution of such a work order. Current wage rates are attached in file "PA-PrevailingWagesRates.pdf" for reference; rates are subject to change by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Contractor agrees to maintain throughout duration of the Contract, all necessary City, county, and state licenses and approvals as applicable (including required professional licenses and exams), and to immediately notify the Office of any loss or changes of licenses and approvals. Substantial or unreasonable delays in response times, estimated time, or non-adherence thereto, in addition to any failure to meet Project schedule deadlines or other failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Contract will constitute cause for the assessment of liquidated damages. Contractor agrees to the Completion Date set out in the Scope of Work and acknowledges that if the Project is not completed by the Completion Date, the delay will materially interfere with the City's operations. In the event of any such delay, it would be difficult to establish the actual damage for which Contractor is the material cause. Contractor and the City therefore agree that in the event of such delay in completion of the Project beyond the Completion Date, the amount of damages shall be as set forth in the Scope of Work and agree that Contractor shall pay such amount as liquidated damages, not as a penalty. The amount of liquidated damages if the Project is not completed by the Completion Date shall be the amount set out in the Scope of Work, which amount shall be paid for each calendar day following the Completion Date. Assessment of liquidated damages does not require filing a claim, and any such assessed damages will be immediately deducted from payments due under the Contract. The City may set off any amounts owed by Contractor for liquidated damages against any amounts owed to Contractor by the City under the Agreement. The liquidated damages provision in this Section is also subject to the provisions related to Force Majeure set out in the Contract and shall not be construed to limit any other remedy of City under the Contract included finding of default and termination. Unless expressly provided otherwise in the Specifications, any references to quantities of goods or frequency of Work to be provided to the City are estimates, and the City reserves the right to increase or decrease any or all of the quantities of Work, materials, and equipment or to omit any of them, as it may deem necessary, and such increase or decrease of the quantities given for any of the items will not be considered as sufficient grounds for granting an increase in the prices of the Bid. Bidder understands and agrees that there is no guarantee that any estimated quantities will in fact be realized or ordered during the Work. Each Bid must be accompanied by a Guarantee in the form a cashier's check or money order, in an amount of five (5) percent of the Bid total, by a bond with corporate surety in an amount not exceeding five (5) percent of the Bid total, or by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank or other financial institution duly recognized and authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Upon Award, Bidder will, within ten (10) calendar days of Award notice, furnish a Performance Bond using sufficient surety or sureties, in an amount equal to 100% of the Contract price. The bond must specify that the Work will be completed in a manner satisfactory to the City. The bond must also state that the City is not liable for any expenses incurred through the failure to complete the Work as specified, nor liable for any damages growing out of the carelessness of Contractor, Contractor's employees, or subcontractors. Upon Award, Bidder will also, with ten (10) calendar days of Award notice, furnish a Payment Bond in the amount of 100% of the Contract price.
