http://www.purchasingconnection.ca/



item in the "Total Bid" column; (in case of discrepancy, the unit price figure will take precedence over the total in the “Total Bid” column);

d) Total Tender Insert the sum of all amounts in the “Total Bid” column in the space marked "Total Tender in Canadian dollars excluding GST".

Prices must not exceed two decimal places. If a submitted unit price schedule contains prices exceeding two decimal places, the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass will round to the nearest two decimal places with .005 being rounded upwards. Bidders will be bound to such rounded amounts.

11..77..33 Acknowledging Addenda

Addenda, when issued, form part of the Tender Document. The Bidder shall acknowledge receipt of each Addendum in the space provided on the Tender forms. The individual items included in the Addendum shall be added, deleted or changed in accordance with the instructions contained in the Addendum letter.

During the Tendering period, all Addenda issued by the Owner’s Consultant will be sent by fax, email, or courier to the address for all Parties recorded by the Owner’s Consultant as having received hard copy Bid Documents, at the time the Addenda is issued. Bidders who have obtained Bid Documents from any source other than the Owner’s Consultant may not automatically receive Addenda via fax, email, or courier. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Tender, each Bidder shall ascertain, prior to the time fixed for receiving tenders, that it has received all Addenda issued by the Owner’s Consultant.

The Undersigned encloses herewith as a deposit, a bid bond (along with a Consent of Surety) or a certified cheque payable to the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass of the Province of Alberta



for ten percent (10%) of the Tender Bid Amount. Tenders not accompanied by tender security will be rejected as non-compliant, The undersigned hereby agrees that if, within twenty-one (21) days after the Contract is presented to him for signature, hand delivered or sent by registered mail or courier addressed to him at the address stated in the Tender, the undersigned refused or fails:

a) to sign and return to the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass the Contract for the performance of the Work and the supplying of Materials covered by this Tender; or

b) to provide security and insurance as required by the Specifications,

the bid bond or deposit shall be subject to forfeiture to the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass, and if a Contract for that Work and Material is then entered into with some other person for a greater amount, the Undersigned is liable to the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass in the amount equal to the difference between the amount of his Tender and the amount of the Contract actually entered into; the maximum not exceeding the amount of the security required under this section.

The bid bond shall be enforceable for the earlier of the tender acceptance period as specified in the Instructions to Bidders or until the bond’s principal enters into the formal contract.

A bid bond that is a copy or improperly completed or executed may cause the tender to be rejected as non-compliant if, in the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass judgment, this would potentially render the bid bond unenforceable.

All costs associated with acquiring bonding must be covered within the Bidders Contract price.

11..77..55 Safety Prequalification

As a precondition to contract award, the Bidder must have a valid Certificate of Recognition (COR) or a valid Temporary Letter of Certification (TLC), or a Certificate of Recognition Equivalency Letter (COREL) for out of province Bidders, as issued by the Alberta Construction Safety Association (ACSA) or another certifying partner authorized by the Alberta Ministry of Labour to issue CORs, TLCs or CORELs. The COR, TLC or COREL must be relevant to the Work. Possession of a Certificate of Recognition other than a COR, TLC or COREL, such as a Small Employer Certificate of Recognition (SECOR) is not acceptable.

Bidders may be required to submit evidence of safety qualifications by the earlier of:

i) The date that the Municipality-Name may request in writing, or ii) Seven days before expiry of the tender acceptance period.

Prospective Bidders who do not possess a COR, TLC or a COREL and wish to obtain information about obtaining one, are advised to contact:

The Alberta Construction Safety Association Telephone: (780) 453-3311 or 225 Parsons Rd. S.W.

11..88 REJECTION OF TENDERS

The Owner reserves the right to accept or reject any or all Tenders and to waive irregularities and informalities at its discretion. The Owner reserves the right to accept a Tender other than the lowest Tender without stating reasons. The Owner has the right to award the work to whomever it chooses, in its sole and unfettered discretion, and for whatever reasons the Owner deems appropriate. By the act of submitting its bid, the Bidder agrees that any claim the Bidder may have in relation to the award of the work by the Owner is limited to damages for the reasonable cost of preparing the bid and that the Bidder has no right to seek loss of anticipated profit. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Owner may consider any other factor besides price and capability to perform the work that it deems in its sole discretion to be relevant to its decision including but not limited to the following:

• any past experience with the Bidder, or lack thereof;

• the results of any reference check done by the Owner;

• information relating to the financial state of the Bidder, however obtained.

• show any alteration of form;

• omit any required information or are illegible;

• contain qualifications to the bid, or additions not called for;

• are conditional or alternative bids;

• are incomplete bids; or

• contain prices, which are unbalanced.

• Is accompanied by an insufficient certified cheque, irrevocable letter of credit or by a Bid Bond in an unsatisfactory form.

The Municipality of Crowsnest Pass reserves the right to waive an irregularity or non-compliance where the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass deems the irregularity or non-compliance to be minor or inconsequential. The determination of what is or is not a minor or inconsequential irregularity or non-compliance, and the determination of whether to waive or not waive the irregularity or non-compliance, is at the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass sole discretion. The lowest priced compliant Bidder may be required to supply evidence of experience, qualifications, equipment, ability and financial capability for completing the project(s) before the Contract is executed. Lack of any of these will be considered sufficient cause for rejecting the tender. In addition, failure to satisfactorily complete previous construction contracts with the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass, or avoidable delays in completing such contracts, will be considered sufficient cause for rejecting any tender.



11..99 TENDER DATE CHANGES AND CANCELLING OF TENDERS

The Owner may extend the date and time for receiving tenders, or the Owner may amend, suspend, postpone or cancel this tender at any time.

11..1100 DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS

Only one tender per Bidder will be considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any Bidder is interested in more than one tender for the Work, in the capacity of the Contractor, may cause the rejection of all tenders in which such Bidder is interested. Any or all tenders will be rejected if there is reason to believe that collusion exists among the Bidders, and none of the participants in such collusion will be considered in future tenders.

11..1111 BIDDER’S INVESTIGATION AND REPRESENTATION

The Bidder must examine the contract forms and tender documents, including plans, drawings, specifications, and special provisions, to clearly understand the requirements of the project(s) and to carefully investigate and satisfy themselves of every condition affecting the project(s), including the site conditions and the labour and material to be provided. The contract Standard Specifications and General Specifications are available on the Alberta Transportation web site at https://www.alberta.ca/construction-contract-templates.aspx. The Bidder agrees that submission of a tender is conclusive evidence that the Bidder has made such investigation; and that, whether or not he has so investigated, he is willing to assume and does assume all risk regarding conditions affecting the project. The Bidder acknowledges and agrees that, where provided, any information pertaining to subsurface soil, rock and groundwater conditions indicated on the borehole/test pit logs shown on the drawings: 1) has been obtained for design purposes; and 2) is valid only at the specific locations of the boreholes/test pits and only on the date(s) that the subsurface investigation(s) took place. Bidders may wish to supplement this information, for their purposes, by performing additional investigations. The submission of a tender also constitutes a representation by the Bidder that: (i) the Bidder has complied with all bidding requirements; (ii) the Bidder is qualified and experienced to perform the Work in accordance with the

tender documents;

(iii) the bid is based upon performing the Work in accordance with the tender documents,

without exception; and (iv) the price or prices stated in the tender cover all the Bidder's obligations under the

Contract and all matters and things necessary for the performance of the Work in accordance with the tender documents.

11..1122 WITHDRAWAL OR CHANGE OF TENDER

11..1122..11 Withdrawal of Tender Submission

A Bidder may withdraw its tender by submitting a request in writing signed by the Bidder. The request must be received:

https://www.alberta.ca/construction-contract-templates.aspx



• in the location set out in Instructions to Bidders Section 1.1, Conditions for Tender Submission; or

• if the request is submitted by fax it must be sent to 403-563-5581, marked “ATTENTION: HIGHWAY 3, CONTRACT OPENING” and all pages must be fax date stamped prior to the time fixed for receiving tenders.

11..1122..22 No Withdrawal

No Bidder may withdraw a tender at or after the time fixed for receiving tenders until:

a) some other Bidder has entered into a Contract with the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass for the performance of the project specified in these tender documents; or

b) thirty-five (35) calendar days after the time fixed for receiving tenders unless the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass has notified the bidder that they are the successful bidder;

whichever occurs first. The 35 day acceptance period referred to above will commence at 11:59:00 p.m. of the date of tender closing and will terminate at 11:59:00 p.m. of the 35th day thereafter. If the 35th day falls on a weekend or statutory holiday, such day(s) will be omitted from the computation.

11..1122..33 Changes to Tender Submissions

A Bidder wishing to make changes to its tender before the time set for receiving tenders may withdraw the tender submission and the modified tender may then be resubmitted in an addressed and sealed envelope in compliance with Instructions to Bidders Section 1.1, Conditions for Tender Submission, up to the time and date set for receiving tenders. Bidders are advised that requests for withdrawal of tender submissions must comply with Instructions to Bidders Section 1.12.1, Withdrawal of Tender Submission. Alternatively, if this change is to the unit price schedule only, the Bidder may send a facsimile (FAX) message to 403-563-5581, marked “ATTENTION: HIGHWAY 3, CONTRACT OPENING” on a copy of Form C58 found in this Tender package. To be acceptable, the form must be completed in full including the legal name of the Bidder and the changes to be made, and it must be signed by an authorized officer of the Bidder and received before the time and date set for the receipt of the tender in accordance with the Instructions to Bidders Section 1.1, Conditions for Tender Submission. The Owner and the Consultant accept no responsibility for faxed changes. It is the Bidder’s responsibility to confirm receipt of any faxed changes. The Bidder is responsible for ensuring its modifications are received before the time fixed for receiving tenders and are legible, clear as to the intent, unambiguous, and comply with the terms of the tender document. Failure of the Bidder to do the foregoing will render these modifications null and void. The Municipality of Crowsnest Pass assumes no responsibility or liability for the content of modifications, or for modifications that are, for any reason, delayed, illegible, unclear as to intent, ambiguous, contrary to these instructions, or otherwise improperly received. The Municipality of Crowsnest Pass, at its sole discretion, may reject modifications in accordance with the terms of the Tender Amendment Form or may reject the tender in accordance with Instructions to Bidders Section, Rejection of Tenders Section, or both.



Prices must not exceed two decimal places. If a submitted unit price schedule change contains prices exceeding two decimal places, the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass will round to the nearest two decimal places with .005 being rounded upwards. Bidders will be bound to such rounded amounts. The “Tender Amendment Form”, if applicable, must be completed by identifying only the changes required: a) Estimated Quantity Changes

For bid items where the unit price is fixed and the Bidder is required to provide an estimated quantity (for example site occupancy), show the amount of the increase or decrease of the quantity in the “Estimated Quantity Changes + or -” column and the total value of the change in the “Net Change to Total Bid + or -” column. Use the unit price as it appears in the unit price schedule as the unit price in the Tender Amendment Form. In case of discrepancy, the estimated quantity figure in the “Estimated Quantity Changes + or -” column will take precedence over the amount in “Net Change to Total Bid + or -” column, and the unit price in the unit price schedule will take precedence over the unit price in the Tender Amendment Form;

b) Unit Price Changes For bid items where the Bidder is required to provide a unit price, show the amount of the change to the unit price in the “Unit Price Changes + or -” column, and the total for each change in the “Net Change to Total Bid + or -” column. Use the estimated quantity as it appears in the unit price schedule as the estimated quantity in the Tender Amendment Form. In case of discrepancy, the change to the unit price figure in the “Unit Price Changes + or -” column will take precedence over the total change in the “Net Change to Total Bid” column;

c) Lump Sum Changes For bid items where the Bidder is required to provide a lump sum, leave a blank space in the “Unit Price Changes + or -” column, and enter the amount of the lump sum change in the “Net Change to Total Bid + or -” column; and

d) Net Change to Total Bid Show the sum of all items in the “Net Change to Total Bid + or -” column in the space after “Increase (+) or Reduce (-) Total Tender By”.

If arithmetical errors are discovered, the changed estimated quantities or unit prices, as applicable, will be considered as representing the Bidder's intentions; and the net change to total bid price extensions and the change to total tender amount entered in the Tender Amendment Form will be corrected accordingly by the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass. The Bidder will be bound to such corrected amounts.



11..1133 TENDER VALIDATION

The Owner will check the completeness and accuracy of all Bidders’ tender submissions in order to determine the lowest compliant bid. Extensions to unit price items and estimated quantity items entered in the unit price schedule will be verified by the Owner. If arithmetical errors are discovered:

• for unit price items, then the unit prices will be considered as representing the Bidder's intentions;

• for estimated quantity items, then the estimated quantity will be considered as representing the Bidder's intentions

and the unit price or estimated quantity extensions and the Total Tender amount in the unit price schedule will be corrected accordingly by the Owner. The Bidder will be bound to such corrected amounts. If an estimated quantity or unit price is not filled in by the Bidder for an item, but an amount is stated in the Total Bid column, then the Owner will determine:

• the unit price by dividing the extended amount by the estimated quantity and this unit price value will be considered as representing the Bidder's intentions; or

• the estimated quantity by dividing the extended amount by the unit price and this estimated quantity will be considered as representing the Bidder's intentions.

The Total Tender will be the arithmetically correct sum of the arithmetically correct total bid extensions and lump sums in the unit price schedule.

11..1144 CONTRACT AWARD CONSIDERATIONS

There are five (5) separate Unit Price Schedules contained in this document. Bidders shall complete (all) schedules. The Owner reserves the right to base the award on either the Total Tender based on all schedules or the Total Tender amount based on the deletion of one or more schedules.
