Contractor Procurement Sample Clauses
Contractor Procurement. The RECIPIENT shall be responsible for all PROJECT construction activities, which may be completed either by the RECIPIENT’s staff or by a contractor. If the RECIPIENT intends to use contractor services, the RECIPIENT shall be responsible for the advertisement, opening of bids, selection, and contracting for contractor services for the PROJECT, with the concurrence of the CABINET, in accordance with the Federal contract provisions listed in FHWA Form 1273 which take precedence over the Kentucky Model Procurement Code provisions KRS 45A.343 and KRS 45A.345-460, as well as KRS 424, 23 CFR 635, 23 USC 112. Bid proposals must be accepted for a minimum of 21 days from the date of the first advertisement for award. Contractors and subcontractors must be pre-qualified by the CABINET for the type of work prior to being awarded a contract. If no CABINET prequalification category exists, a contractor or subcontractor must receive the approval of the CABINET prior to working on the PROJECT. The RECIPIENT shall prepare an independent engineer’s estimate in accordance with 23 CFR 630, Subpart B to compare against the contractors’ bids for reasonableness. The RECIPIENT shall thoroughly review all bids and obtain concurrence from the CABINET prior to the award or the rejection of any contract of bids for work or materials to be used on this PROJECT. Factors that should be considered and documented in reviewing submitted bids are: a comparison of the bids against the engineer’s estimate, the number of bids submitted, the distribution or range of bids received, the geographic location of bidders, any potential savings from readvertising the PROJECT, a comparison of bids against other recent bids for the same item or service, the urgency of the PROJECT, the number of times previously advertised or contracted for, the current market conditions, a comparison of unit bids versus engineer’s estimate unit bids, the funding available. Determining whether the bids received are adequate involves considering any critical safety improvements, emergency repair or replacement of damaged facilities, the opening of otherwise completed facilities to traffic, furthering a phased construction schedule, or any other factors deemed important by the CABINET or FHWA. Specific Federal requirements defined within 23 CFR 635 require that the award be made to the lowest responsive bidder meeting the criteria of responsibility established by the CABINET.
