INSTRUCTIONS FOR BIDDERS
1.01 Preparation and Submittal of Bid Proposal.
A. Bid Proposal Preparation. All information required by the bid forms must be
completely and accurately provided. Numbers shall be stated in both words and
figures where so indicated in the bid forms; conflicts between a number stated in
words and in figures are governed by the words, except where the figures
represent an express, correctly calculated sum. Bid Proposals shall include all
documents and items required by the Call for Bids, Bid Proposal Form, and any
other information required by these Instructions for Bidders. Partially completed
Bid Proposals may be deemed non-responsive. Bid Proposals submitted on other
than the bid forms included herein shall be deemed non-responsive. Bid
Proposals not conforming to these Instructions for Bidders and the Notice to
Contractors Calling for Bids ("Call for Bids") may be deemed non-responsive and
rejected. Each Bidder is solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by
the Bidder in preparing and submitting a Bid Proposal to the District. Bidders
shall not, under any circumstances, include such expenses as part of their Bid
Proposals.
B. Bid Proposal Submittal. Bid Proposals shall be submitted at the place
designated in the Call for Bids in sealed envelopes bearing on the outside the
Bidder's name and address along with an identification of the Work for which the
Bid Proposal is submitted. Bidders are solely responsible for timely submission
of Bid Proposals to the District at the place designated in the Call for Bids.
C. Date and Time of Bid Proposal Submittal. A Bid Proposal is considered
submitted only if the outer envelope containing the Bid Proposal is stamped by
the District's date/time stamp machine at the place designated for submittal of the
Bid Proposal. The date/time stamp is controlling and determinative as to the date
and time of the Bidder's submittal of its Bid Proposal. Bid Proposals received
after the date and time specified in the Call for Bids are non-responsive and will
be returned to the Bidder unopened.
D. Alternate Bid Item(s). If the Bid Proposal forms do not specifically call for the
submittal of alternate bid item(s) and a Bidder submits alternate bid item(s), the
District may deem the Bid Proposal to be non-responsive and reject the same. In
the event that alternate item(s) are specifically called for in the Bid Proposal
forms, any Bid Proposal which does not include bid(s) for the alternate item(s)
may result in the Bid Proposal being deemed by the District to be non-responsive
and rejected. In the event that bids for alternate item(s) are specifically called for
in the Bid Proposal forms, the Bidder is referenced to the provisions of the
OXNARD SCHOOL DISTRICT INSTRUCTIONS FOR BIDDERS
STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 00100
PAGE 1 OF 11

Contract Documents permitting the District, during performance of the Work of
the Contract Documents, to add or delete such alternate item(s) with the cost or
credit (inclusive of all direct and indirect costs, supervision, overhead and profit)
for such alternate item(s) to be in the amount(s) set forth in the Bidder's Bid
Proposal for such alternate item(s).
1.02 Bid Security. Bid Security shall be in the form of: (a) cash, (b) a certified or cashier's
check made payable to the District or (c) a Bid Bond, in the form and content attached
hereto, in favor of the District executed by the Bidder as a principal and an Admitted
Surety Insurer under Code of Civil Procedure 995.120 and 995.311 as surety (the "Bid
Security") in an amount not less than the stated percentage of the maximum amount of
the Bid Proposal. Any Bid Proposal submitted without the required Bid Security is non-
responsive and will be rejected.
1.03 Signatures. All bid forms shall be executed by an individual duly authorized to execute
the same on behalf of the Bidder.
1.04 Modifications. Changes to the Bid Proposal which are not specifically called for or
permitted may result in the District's rejection of the Bid Proposal as being non-
responsive. No oral or telephonic modification of any submitted Bid Proposal will be
considered. A written modification may be considered only if actually received by the
District ten (10) days prior to the scheduled closing time for receipt of Bid Proposals.
1.05 Erasures; Inconsistent or Illegible Bid Proposals. Bid Proposals must not contain any
erasures, interlineations or other corrections unless the same are suitably authenticated by
affixing in the margin immediately opposite such erasure, interlineation or correction the
surname(s) of the person(s) signing the Bid Proposal. Any Bid Proposal not conforming
to the foregoing may be deemed by the District to be non-responsive. If any Bid
Proposal, or portions thereof, is determined by the District to be illegible, ambiguous or
inconsistent, the District may reject such a Bid Proposal as being non-responsive.
1.06 Examination of Site and Contract Documents. Each Bidder shall, at its sole cost and
expense, inspect the Site to become fully acquainted with the Contract Documents and
conditions affecting the Work. The failure of a Bidder to receive or examine any of the
Contract Documents or to inspect the Site shall not relieve such Bidder from any
obligation with respect to the Bid Proposal, the Contract or the Work required under the
Contract Documents. The District assumes no responsibility or liability to any Bidder
for, nor shall the District be bound by, any understandings, representations or agreements
of the District's agents, employees or officers concerning the Contract Documents or the
Work made prior to execution of the Contract. Bidder is charged with all information
and knowledge that a reasonable bidder would ascertain from having performed this
required work, investigation, research, and analysis. Bid prices must include entire cost
of all work "incidental" to completion of the Work. The submission of a Bid Proposal
OXNARD SCHOOL DISTRICT INSTRUCTIONS FOR BIDDERS
STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 00100
PAGE 2 OF 11

shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the Bidder's full compliance with the
requirements of this section.
1.06.1 Conditions Shown on the Contract Documents. Information as to underground
conditions, as-built conditions, or other conditions or obstructions indicated in the
Contract Documents has been obtained with reasonable care and has been recorded in
good faith. However, District only warrants, and Contractor may only rely on, the
accuracy of limited type of information as set forth herein.
(a) As to above-ground conditions or as-built conditions shown or indicated in the
Contract Documents, there is no warranty, express or implied, or any representation
express or implied, that such information is correctly shown or indicated. This
information is verifiable by independent investigation and Contractor is required to make
such verification as a condition to bidding. In submitting its Bid, Contractor shall rely on
the results of its own independent investigation. In submitting its Bid, Contractor shall
not rely on District-supplied information regarding above ground conditions or as-built
conditions.
(b) As to any subsurface condition shown or indicated in the Contract Documents,
Contractor may rely only upon the general accuracy of actual reported depths, actual
reported character of materials, actual reported soil types, actual reported water
conditions, or actual obstructions shown or indicated. District is not responsible for the
completeness of such information for bidding or construction; nor is District responsible
in any way for any conclusions or opinions of Contractor drawn from such information;
nor is the District responsible for subsurface conditions that are not specifically shown
(for example, District is not responsible for soil conditions in areas contiguous to areas
where a subsurface condition is shown).
1.06.2 Conditions Shown in Reports and Drawings Supplied for Information
Purposes. Any reports of explorations or tests of subsurface conditions at or contiguous
to the Site that have been utilized by Architect in preparing the Contract Documents are
not Contract Documents and, except for any "technical" data regarding subsurface
conditions specifically identified in such reports and underground facilities data,
Contractor may not in any manner rely on the information in these reports and drawings.
Subject to the foregoing, Contractor must make its own independent investigation of all
conditions affecting the Work and must not rely on information provided by District.
1.06.3 Site Investigation. Each Bidder shall complete the tasks listed below as a
condition to bidding, and submission of a Bid shall constitute the Bidder's express
representation to District that Bidder has fully completed the following:
(a) Bidder has visited the Site and has examined thoroughly and understood the
nature and extent of the Contract Documents, Work, Site, locality, actual conditions, as
built conditions, and all local conditions and federal state and local laws, and regulations

STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 00100

that in any manner may affect cost, progress, performance, or furnishing of Work or that
relate to any aspect of the means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of
construction to be employed by Bidder and safety precautions and programs incident
thereto;
(b) Bidder has conducted or obtained and has understood all examinations,
investigations, explorations, tests, reports, and studies that pertain to the subsurface
conditions, as built conditions, underground facilities, and all other physical conditions at
or contiguous to the Site or otherwise that may affect the cost, progress, performance, or
furnishing of Work, as Bidder considers necessary for the performance or furnishing of
Work at the Contract Price, within the Contract Time, and in accordance with the other
terms and conditions of the Contract Documents, including specifically the provisions of
the General Conditions; and no additional examinations, investigations, explorations,
tests, reports, studies, or similar information or data are or will be required by Bidder for
such purposes;
(c) Bidder has correlated its knowledge and the results of all such observations,
examinations, investigations, explorations, test, reports, and studies with the terms and
conditions of the Contract Documents;
(d) Bidder has given the District prompt written notice of all conflicts, errors,
ambiguities, or discrepancies that it has discovered in or among the Contract Documents
and actual conditions, and the written resolution thereof by the District is acceptable to
Bidder; and
(e) Bidder has made a complete disclosure in writing to the District of all facts
bearing upon any possible interest, direct or indirect, that Bidder believes any
representative of the District or other officer or employee of the District presently has or
will have in this Contract or in the performance thereof or in any portion of the profits
thereof.
1.07 Withdrawal of Bid Proposal. Any Bidder may withdraw its Bid Proposal without
penalty by written request received by the District prior to the scheduled closing time for
the receipt of Bid Proposals. Requests for withdrawal of bid proposals after scheduled
closing time shall be in accordance with Public Contract Code 5100, et seq.
1.08 Documents Required Upon Award of Contract. The Agreement which the successful
Bidder, as Contractor, will be required to execute along with the other documents which
will be required to be furnished are included in the Contract Documents and shall be
carefully examined by the Bidder.
1.09 Interpretation of Drawings, Specifications or Contract Documents. Any Bidder in
doubt as to the true meaning of any part of the Contract Documents or who finds
discrepancies, errors or omissions therein; or who finds variances in any of the Contract
OXNARD SCHOOL DISTRICT INSTRUCTIONS FOR BIDDERS
STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS 00100
PAGE 4 OF 11

Documents with applicable rules, regulations, ordinances and/or laws, may submit to the
District a written request for an interpretation or correction thereof. It is the sole and
exclusive responsibility of the Bidder to submit such requests not less than eleven (11)
days prior to the scheduled closing for the receipt of Bid Proposals. Interpretations or
corrections of the Contract Documents will be by written addendum issued by the
District, a copy of which will be sent to each Bidder who attends the mandatory pre-bid
job walk. No person is authorized to render an oral interpretation or correction of any
portion of the Contract Documents to any Bidder, and no Bidder is authorized to rely on
any such oral interpretation or correction. Failure to request interpretation or clarification
of any portion of the Contract Documents pursuant to the foregoing is a waiver of any
discrepancy, defect or conflict therein.
1.10 Request for Substitutions Prior to Bid Opening. By action of the District's Board of
Trustees taken on January 14, 2004, pursuant to Public Contract Code 3400, the District

addendum issued by the District, a copy of which will be sent to each Bidder who attends
the mandatory pre-bid job walk. In the absence of written addendum, the Request for
Substitution shall be deemed denied for purposes of the District's evaluation of the Bid
Proposals and award of the Contract.

receipt of Bid Proposals, the District may modify the Work, the Contract Documents, or
any portion(s) thereof by the issuance of written addenda disseminated to all Bidders who
have attended the mandatory pre-bid job walk. If the District issues any addenda, the
failure of any Bidder to acknowledge such addenda in its Bid Proposal may render the
Bid Proposal non-responsive.
1.12 Bidders Interested in More Than One Bid Proposal. No person, firm, corporation or
other entity shall submit or be interested in more than one Bid Proposal for the same
Work; provided, however, that a person, firm or corporation that has submitted a sub-

information required by the Statement of Bidder's Qualifications shall be completely,
accurately, and fully provided. Any Bid Proposal not accompanied by the Statement of
Bidder's Qualifications completed with all information required and bearing the signature
of the Bidder's duly authorized representative under penalty of perjury will render the
Bid Proposal non-responsive and rejected. If the District determines that any information
provided by a Bidder in the Statement of Bidder's Qualifications is false or misleading or
is incomplete so as to be false or misleading, the District may reject the Bid Proposal
submitted by such Bidder as being non-responsive or terminate any applicable contract
with the Bidder.

A. Waiver of Irregularities or Informalities. The District reserves the right to
reject any and all Bid Proposals or to waive any irregularities or informalities in

Alternates, then the basis of the Contract award (if any) will be the Total Base Bid
without consideration of the additive or deductive items. (See Public Contract
Code 20103.8(a).).
D. Post-Award Selection of Alternate Bid Items. After awarding the Contract
based upon the Total Base Bid, the District reserves the right to deduct or add to
the scope of work by selecting Alternate Bid Items for the amounts set forth in the
Bid Proposal. If the District adds or deletes Alternate Bid Items from the total
scope of the Work, then such additive or deductive Work shall be performed or
omitted at the price(s) set forth in the Alternate Bid Items Proposal.

to properly and reasonably plan, schedule, coordinate and execute the Work of the

or found ineligible for bidding on any other projects. The ability of a Bidder to

Bidder. Upon request of the District, Bidder must promptly submit satisfactory
evidence of any of the items listed above.

a list of its proposed Subcontractors for the proposed Work as required by the

hours of bid opening the license numbers and value of work for each listed

rejection by the District.

Specifications and Drawings shall not limit the extent of the Work of the Contract
Documents. Accordingly, all Bidders are encouraged to disseminate all of the
