Sealed Proposals are requested for a single prime contract for HVAC condenser replacement work in accordance with Drawings, Project Manual, and other Bidding and Contract Documents prepared by AJH Design, 111 East 14th Street, Elmira Heights, NY 14903. All questions prior to bid opening must be received by the close of business on Monday, September 30, 2024. Questions shall be directed to David R. Adams at AJH Design, (607) 737-4638, email dadams@ajh-design.com. The Owner requires that all bids shall comply with the bidding requirements specified in the Instructions to Bidders. The Owner, at his discretion, may waive informalities in bids, but is not obligated to do so, nor does this represent that he will do so. The Owner also reserves the right to reject any and all bids. Under no circumstances will the Owner waive any informality which, by such waiver, would give one Bidder a substantial advantage or benefit not enjoyed by all other Bidders. No Bidder may withdraw his Bid before thirty (30) days after the actual date of the opening thereof unless a mistake due to error is claimed by the Bidder in accordance with the Instructions to Bidders. Attention is particularly called to requirements as to the conditions of employment to be observed and minimum wage rates to be paid under the Contract. The Ithaca Housing Authority is an equal opportunity employer. Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women's Business Enterprises (WBE) are encouraged to submit a bid. All bids must be accompanied by a negotiable bid guarantee which shall not be less than five percent (5%) of the amount of the bid. The bid guarantee may be a certified check, bank draft, U.S. Government Bonds at par value, or a bid bond secured by a surety company acceptable to the U.S. Government and authorized to do business in the state where the work is to be performed. In the case where the work under the contract will be performed on an Indian reservation area, the bid guarantee may also be an irrevocable Letter of Credit (see provision 10, Assurance of Completion, below). Certified checks and bank drafts must be made payable to the order of the PHA/IHA. The bid guarantee shall insure the execution of the contract and the furnishing of a method of assurance of completion by the successful bidder as required by the solicitation. Failure to submit a bid guarantee with the bid shall result in the rejection of the bid. Bid guarantees submitted by unsuccessful bidders will be returned as soon as practicable after bid opening.
