However, such major variation shall be completed without delay. Contractor shall use an adequate number of qualified workers who are thoroughly trained in the techniques required to properly complete the work specified. Contractor will own or have access to the equipment necessary and to meet all safety, insurance, and technical requirements of the owner and local, county, state, and federal regulating authorities. The grand total bid price shall be reflected on the RPQ Bid Form – Attachment 5A. LICENSE: Note: Pursuant to the requirements of Section 10-3 of the Code of Miami-Dade County, selected Contractors must possess a valid, current, and active State of Florida and/or Miami-Dade County contractor''''s license issued by the County''''s Construction Trades Qualifying Board and which is consistent with the requirements of their respective trade and the scope of work. BID BOND AND PERFORMANCE & PAYMENT BOND: Prospective bidders shall submit a Bid Bond at the time of Bid submission. Bidders may use the Surety Company standard bid bond. Alternatively, a certified or cashier’s check will be acceptable in lieu of the bid bond. The Performance & Payment (P&P) bond must be submitted, using the contract specified form, within ten (10) working days from receipt of the Recommendation for Award (RFA) or time extension approved by the MDAD project manager. The P&P bond shall be required for the full contract amount. P&P Bond shall be submitted once the low “responsive and responsible” bidder is determined and the Recommendation for Award is issued. MDAD ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY: Compliance with the Aviation Department (MDAD)''''s Environmental Policy, ISO 14000 certification and Commissioning requirements will be strictly enforced by the MDAD PM. These requirements will be discussed during the mandatory pre- bid conference call. The awarded bidder shall comply with all requirements listed on the project plans, specifications and/or distributed separately following the mandatory pre-bid conference call. SAFETY: The awarded contractor is responsible for the safety and security of the job site. Any vandalism, theft, etc. which occurs during the construction time is the responsibility of the contractor. No monetary compensation shall be granted if any of the above occurs. If Contractor opts to hire an independent Security Company, such company is to be properly bonded and insured. Contractors shall provide an established safety program and implementation policy. Contractors’ safety programs shall be reviewed and approved by MDAD post-bid submittal and work orders shall not be issued to any contractor until their safety program is approved by MDAD. Refer to Resolution No. R-1181-18 for more information. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: If the awarded contractor shall neglect, fail, or refuse to complete the work within the time specified for Substantial Completion in the Notice to Proceed (NTP), then the contractor hereby agrees, as part of the consideration for the awarding of this Contract, to pay to the Owner, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of $386.07 per day for each calendar day beyond the dates set forth in the NTP and/or Work Order(s). The said amount is fixed and agreed on by and between the Contractor and the Owner because of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the true value of the damages which the Owner will sustain by failure of the Contractor to complete the Work on time, such as loss of revenue, service charges, interest charges, delays caused to other construction activities of Owner by failure to perform this Contract, and other damages, some of which are indefinite and not susceptible of easy proof. Said amount is agreed to be a reasonable estimate of the amount of damages which the Owner will sustain and said amount shall be deducted from any monies due or that may become due to the contractor, and if said monies are insufficient to cover said damages, then the Contractor shall pay the amount of the difference. Substantial completion does not relieve the contractor of completing the project in its entirety, nor does it obligate the owner to pay the entire contract price. Final acceptance is achieved when a Certificate of Completion (i.e., if required), acceptable warranties, final payrolls, final releases or acceptable Consent of Surety and documentation required in the contract documents has been submitted for approval to the MDAD project manager. SECURITY REQUIREMENTS: Badges are NOT required. However, the company must provide employees with an identifying marking such as reflective vests with company name for those that will be working inside the building. All bidders must contact the MDAD Security and Safety ID Section and the MDAD Landside Operations for the latest procedures and forms concerning badges and vehicle decals for access once the RFA is issued. Please refer to Attachment #11 in the Bid Documents for more information. UTILITY CLEARANCES & SHUTDOWNS: The awarded contractor shall be responsible for obtaining all utility clearances and coordinating all utility shutdowns at least 14 working days before initiating any work. Damage to existing equipment, utilities, MDAD or its business partners'''' property, etc. will be repaired and/or replaced at the contractor''''s expense. MDAD forms and procedures to obtain utility clearances and/or coordinate shutdowns will be distributed following the mandatory pre-bid meeting. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: All requests for information (RFIs) shall comply with the Cone of Silence, Administrative Order 3-27 and shall be directed in writing to the MDAD project manager with a copy to the Clerk of the Board (clerkbcc@miamidade.gov). The deadline to submit RFIs is no later than five (5) working days before the bid opening date and time specified on the RPQ and Invitation to Bid. MDAD will issue all changes and/or clarifications to the RPQ in writing via an Addendum. Verbal statements made by the County or the Owner’s Representative that are not contained in the RPQ or Addendum are not binding on the County and do not form any basis for a bidder’s response to a RPQ.

Contractors must hold a valid license required to perform work in the following trade: General Contractor License. 2. As per Resolution No. R-1122-21, Contractors must have a minimum of 5 years’ experience performing work in their specific trade. In the event a new firm is established by executives, supervisors and other senior field staff (key employees) that would have met these minimum experience requirements with a prior firm, MDAD reserves the right to qualify the new firm, based on MDAD’s sole determination and evaluation of the knowledge and prior experience of these key employees employed by the new firm. 3.

Specifically, contractors must submit proof that their respective firms have been regularly and successfully engaged in work related to their specific trade for a minimum of one (1) year. These requirements shall be based on projects completed prior to the submission date. Contact information for projects and/or firms submitted as proof of experience shall be provided by prospective contractors as part of their bid package. MDAD will confirm the listed experience by calling the firms’ owners or representatives. Should such evidence not be satisfactory to MDAD, whose decision shall be final, the submission will be considered non-responsive. The qualifying proof with names and phone numbers shall be submitted in a sealed envelope at the time of bid. 4. Contractors must have a minimum average total score of 3.0 in their Contractor Performance Evaluations in ISD’s Capital Improvements Information System (CIIS).
