Section 7. Late Bids
No Bid shall be accepted that fails to be submitted prior to the time specified in the Legal
Advertisement.
Section 8. Interpretation of Contract Documents
8.1 No interpretation of the meaning of the plans, specifications or other Bidding Documents
shall be made to a Bidder orally. Any such oral or other interpretations or clarifications shall be
without legal effect. All requests for interpretations or clarifications shall be in writing and
addressed on the County's Online Bidding System to be given consideration. All such requests
for interpretations or clarification must be received as directed in the Online Bidding System
instructions and prior to the Bid opening date. Any and all such interpretations and

Revised 07012015
b. Visited the site to become familiar with local conditions that may in any manner affect
performance of the Work;
c. Become familiar with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations
affecting performance of the Work; and
d. Correlated all of its observations with the requirements of the Bidding documents.
No plea of ignorance of conditions or difficulties that may exist or conditions or difficulties that
may be encountered in the execution of the Work pursuant to these Bidding Documents as a
result of failure to make the necessary examinations and investigations shall be accepted as an
excuse for any failure or omission on the part of the Successful Bidder, nor shall they be
accepted as a basis for any claims whatsoever for extra compensation or for an extension of
time.
9.2 The Owner will make copies of surveys and reports performed in conjunction with this
Project available to any Bidder requesting them at cost; provided, however, the Owner does not
warrant or represent to any Bidder either the completeness or accuracy of any such surveys
and reports. Before submitting its Bid, each Bidder shall, at its own expense, make such
additional surveys and investigations as may be necessary to determine its Bid price for the
performance of the Work within the terms of the Bidding Documents. This provision shall be
subject to Section 2.3 of the General Conditions to the Agreement.
Section 10. Material Requirements
It is the intention of these Bidding Documents to identify standard materials. When space is
provided on the Bid Schedule, Bidders shall specify the materials which they propose to use in
the Project. The Owner may declare any Bid non-responsive or irregular if such materials are
not specifically named by Bidder.
Section 11. Bid Quantities
11.1 Quantities given in the Bid Schedule, while estimated from the best information
available, are approximate only. Payment for unit price items shall be based on the actual
number of units installed for the Work. Bids shall be compared on the basis of number of units
stated in the Bid Schedule as set forth in the Bidding Documents. Said unit prices shall be
multiplied by the bid quantities for the total Bid price. Any Bid not conforming to this requirement
may be rejected. Special attention to all Bidders is called to this provision, because if conditions
make it necessary or prudent to revise the unit quantities, the unit prices will be fixed for such
increased or decreased quantities. Compensation for such additive or subtractive changes in
the quantities shall be limited to the unit prices in the Bid. Subsequent to the issuance of a
notice to proceed, the Project Manager and the Successful Bidder shall have the discretion to
re-negotiate any unit price(s) where the actual quantity varies by more than twenty-five percent
(25%) from the estimate at the time of bid.
11.2 Alternate Bid Pricing: In the event that alternate pricing is requested, it is an expressed
requirement of the bid invitation to provide pricing for all alternates as listed. The omission of a
response or a no-bid or lack of a submitted price may be the basis for the rejection of the
submitted bid response.

ordinance and policies. A copy of the purchasing ordinance is available at

State Divisions of Corporations in accordance with the requirements of Florida Statute 607.1501

time of response shall be required to provide same within five (5) days upon notification of
selection for award. If the firm cannot provide the document within the referenced timeframe, the
County reserves the right to award to another firm.

Section 14. Exclusion of County Permits in Bid Prices
14.1 To ensure compliance with Section 218.80, F.S., otherwise known as "The Public Bid
Disclosure Act", Collier County will pay the Contractor for all Collier County permits and fees
applicable to the Project, including license fees, permit fees, impact fees or inspection fees
applicable to this Work through an internal budget transfer(s). Hence, bidders shall not include
these permit/fee amounts in their bid offer. However, the Successful Bidder shall retain the

obligated to pay for any permits obtained by Subcontractors.
14.2 The Successful Bidder shall be responsible for procuring and paying for all necessary

Section 15. Use of Subcontractors
15.1 To ensure the Work contemplated by the Contract Documents is performed in a

Project shall be "qualified" as defined in Collier County Ordinance 2013-69, meaning a person
or entity that has the capability in all respects to perform fully the Agreement requirements and
has the integrity and reliability to assure good faith performance. A Subcontractor's
disqualification from bidding by the Owner, or other public contracting entity within the past
twelve months shall be considered by the Owner when determining whether the Subcontractors
are "qualified."
15.2 The Owner may consider the past performance and capability of a Subcontractor when
evaluating the ability, capacity and skill of the Bidder and its ability to perform the Agreement
within the time required. Owner reserves the right to disqualify a Bidder who includes
Subcontractors in its bid offer which are not "qualified" or who do not meet the legal
requirements applicable to and necessitated by this Agreement.
15.3 The Owner may reject all bids proposing the use of any subcontractors who have been
disqualified from submitting bids to the Owner, disqualified or de-certified for bidding purposes
by any public contracting entity, or who has exhibited an inability to perform through any other
means.
15.4 Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, the Bidder shall
identify the subcontractor(s) it intends to use for the categories of work as set forth in the List of
Subcontracts attached hereto, said list to be submitted with its bid. Bidders acknowledge and
agree that the subcontractors identified on the list is not a complete list of the subcontractors to
be used on the Project, but rather only the major subcontractors for each category of Work as
established by Owner. Bidders further acknowledge that once there is an Award of Contract,
the Successful Bidder shall identify, subject to Owner's review and approval, all the
subcontractors it intends to use on the Project. Once approved by Owner, no subcontractor
shall be removed or replaced without Owner's prior written approval.
Section 16. Prohibition of Gifts
No organization or individual shall offer or give, either directly or indirectly, any favor, gift, loan,
fee, service or other item of value to any County employee, as set forth in Chapter 112, Part III,
10

consequences: a. Prohibition by the individual, firm, and/or any employee of the firm from
contact with County staff for a specified period of time; b. Prohibition by the individual and/or
firm from doing business with the County for a specified period of time, including but not limited
to: submitting bids, RFP, and/or quotes; and, c. immediate termination of any contract held by
the individual and/or firm for cause.
Section 17. Lobbying
All firms are hereby placed on NOTICE that the Board of County Commissioners does
not wish to be lobbied, either individually or collectively about a project for which a firm
has submitted a response.
Firms and their agents are not to contact members of the County Commission for such
purposes as meeting or introduction, luncheons, dinners, etc. During the process, from
solicitation closing to final Board approval, no firm or their agent shall contact any other
employee of Collier County in reference to this solicitation, or the vendor's response, with the
exception of the Procurement Director or his designee(s). Failure to abide by this provision may
serve as grounds for disqualification for award of this contract to the firm.
Section 18. Public Entity Crimes
By its submitting a Bid, Bidder acknowledges and agrees to and represents it is in compliance
with the terms of Section 287.133(2)(a) of the Florida Statutes which read as follows:

Upon notification that its Bid has been ewanded. the Successful Bidder wil execute the Agreement form
attached to the Bidding Documents within ten (10) calendar days and deliver the Surety Bond or Bonds
and Insurance Certificates as required by the Contract Documents. The bid security attached is to
become the property of the Owner in the event the Agreement, Insurance Certificates and Bonds are not
executed and delivered to Owner within the time above set forth, as liquidated damagms, for the delay
and additional expense to the Owner, it being recognized that, since time is of the essence, Owner will
suffer financial loss if the Successful Bidder fails to execute and deliver to Owner the required
Agreement, Insurance Certificates and Bonds within the required time period. In the event of such
failure, the total amount of Owner's damages, will be difficult, if not impossible, to definitely ascertain and
quantify. It is hereby agreed that it is appropriate and fair that Owner receive liquidated damages from
the Successful Bidder in the event it fails to execute and deliver the Agreement, Insurance Certificates,
and Bonds as required hereunder. The Successful Bidder hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any
right which it may have to seek to characterize the above noted liquidated damages as a penalty, which
the parties agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of Owner's actual damages at the time of
bidding if the Successful Bidder fails to execute and deliver the Agreement, Insurance Certificates, and
Bonds in a timely manner.
Upon receipt of the Notice of Award, the undersigned proposes to commence work at the site within five
(5) calendar days from the commencement date stipulated in the written Notice to Proceed unless the

date. The undersigned further agrees to substantially complete all work covered by this Bid within four

CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT
THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA,
("Owner") hereby contracts with DEC Contracting Group, Inc. ("Contractor") of 1560 Matthew
Drive, Suite B Fort Myers, FL 33907, a corporation, authorized to do business in the State of
Florida, to perform all work ("Work") in connection with Courthouse First Floor Renovations, Bid
No. 15-6488 ("Project"), as said Work is set forth in the Plans and Specifications prepared by
AECOM, the Engineer and/or Architect of Record ("Design Professional") and other Contract
Documents hereafter specified.
Owner and Contractor, for the consideration herein set forth, agree as follows:
Section 1. Contract Documents.
A. The Contract Documents consist of this Agreement, the Exhibits described in Section 6
hereof, the Legal Advertisement, the Bidding Documents and any duly executed and issued
addenda, Change Orders, Work Directive Changes, Field Orders and amendments relating
thereto. All of the foregoing Contract Documents are incorporated by reference and made a
part of this Agreement (all of said documents including the Agreement sometimes being referred
to herein as the "Contract Documents" and sometimes as the "Agreement" and sometimes as
the "Contract"). A copy of the Contract Documents shall be maintained by Contractor at the
Project site at all times during the performance of the Work.
B. Owner shall furnish to the Contractor one reproducible set of the Contract Documents
and the appropriate number of sets of the Construction Documents, signed and sealed by the
Design Professional, as are reasonably necessary for permitting.
Section 2. Scope of Work.
Contractor agrees to furnish and pay for all management, supervision, financing, labor,
materials, tools, fuel, supplies, utilities, equipment and services of every kind and type
necessary to diligently, timely, and fully perform and complete in a good and workmanlike
manner the Work required by the Contract Documents.
Section 3. Contract Amount.
In consideration of the faithful performance by Contractor of the covenants in this Agreement to
the full satisfaction and acceptance of Owner, Owner agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to
Contractor the following amount (herein "Contract Amount"), in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement: One Million Seven Hundred Forty Seven Thousand Eight Hundred Fifteen
Dollars and 00/100 ($1,747,815.00).
Section 4. Bonds.
A. Contractor shall provide Performance and Payment Bonds, in the form prescribed in
Exhibit A, in the amount of 100% of the Contract Amount, the costs of which are to be paid by
Contractor. The Performance and Payment Bonds shall be underwritten by a surety authorized
to do business in the State of Florida and otherwise acceptable to Owner; provided, however,
the surety shall meet the requirements of the Department of the Treasury Fiscal Service,
"Companies Holding Certificates of Authority as Acceptable Sureties on Federal Bonds and as
26
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
Acceptable Reinsurance Companies" circular. This circular may be accessed via the web at
www.fms.treas.gov/c570/c570.html#certified. Should the Contract Amount be less than
$500,000, the requirements of Section 287.0935, F.S. shall govern the rating and classification
of the surety.
B. If the surety for any bond furnished by Contractor is declared bankrupt, becomes
insolvent, its right to do business is terminated in the State of Florida, or it ceases to meet the
requirements imposed by the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, within five (5) calendar
days thereafter, substitute at its cost and expense another bond and surety, both of which shall
be subject to the Owner's approval.
Section 5. Contract Time and Liquidated Damages.
A. Time of Performance.
Time is of the essence in the performance of the Work under this Agreement. The
"Commencement Date" shall be established in the written Notice to Proceed to be issued by the
Project Manager, as hereinafter defined. Contractor shall commence the Work within five (5)
calendar days from the Commencement Date. No Work shall be performed at the Project site
prior to the Commencement Date. Any Work performed by Contractor prior to the
Commencement Date shall be at the sole risk of Contractor. Contractor shall achieve
Substantial Completion within four hundred (400) calendar days from the Commencement
Date (herein "Contract Time"). The date of Substantial Completion of the Work (or designated
portions thereof) is the date certified by the Design Professional when construction is sufficiently
complete, in accordance with the Contract Documents, so Owner can occupy or utilize the Work
(or designated portions thereof) for the use for which it is intended. Contractor shall achieve
Final Completion within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of Substantial Completion. Final
Completion shall occur when the Agreement is completed in its entirety, is accepted by the
Owner as complete and is so stated by the Owner as completed. As used herein and
throughout the Contract Documents, the phrase "Project Manager" refers to the Owner's duly
authorized representative and shall mean the Division Administrator or Department Director, as
applicable, acting directly or through duly authorized representatives.
B. Liquidated Damages in General.
Owner and Contractor recognize that, since time is of the essence for this Agreement, Owner
will suffer financial loss if Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion within the time
specified above, as said time may be adjusted as provided for herein. In such event, the total
amount of Owner's damages, will be difficult, if not impossible, to definitely ascertain and
quantify. Should Contractor fail to achieve Substantial Completion within the number of
calendar days established herein, Owner shall be entitled to assess, as liquidated damages, but
not as a penalty, one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00)for each calendar day thereafter
until Substantial Completion is achieved. Further, in the event Substantial Completion is
reached, but the Contractor fails to reach Final Completion within the required time period,
Owner shall also be entitled to assess and Contractor shall be liable for all actual damages
incurred by Owner as a result of Contractor failing to timely achieve Final Completion. The
Project shall be deemed to be substantially completed on the date the Project Manager (or at
his/her direction, the Design Professional) issues a Certificate of Substantial Completion
pursuant to the terms hereof. Contractor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any right
which it may have to seek to characterize the above noted liquidated damages as a penalty,
which the parties agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the Owner's actual
damages at the time of contracting if Contractor fails to Substantially or Finally Complete the
Work within the required time periods.
27
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
C. Computation of Time Periods.
When any period of time is referenced by days herein, it shall be computed to exclude the first
day and include the last day of such period. If the last day of any such period falls on a
Saturday or Sunday or on a day made a legal holiday by the law of the applicable jurisdiction,
such day shall be omitted from the computation, and the last day shall become the next
succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
D. Determination of Number of Days of Default.
For all contracts, regardless of whether the Contract Time is stipulated in calendar days or
working days, the Owner will count default days in calendar days.
E. Right of Collection.
The Owner has the right to apply any amounts due Contractor under this Agreement or any
other agreement between Owner and Contractor, as payment on such liquidated damages due
under this Agreement in Owner's sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, Owner retains its right to liquidated damages due under this Agreement even if
Contractor, at Owner's election and in its sole discretion, is allowed to continue and to finish the
Work, or any part of it, after the expiration of the Contract Time including granted time
extensions.
F. Completion of Work by Owner.
In the event Contractor defaults on any of its obligations under the Agreement and Owner elects
to complete the Work, in whole or in part, through another contractor or its own forces, the
Contractor and its surety shall continue to be liable for the liquidated damages under the
Agreement until Owner achieves Substantial and Final Completion of the Work. Owner will not
charge liquidated damages for any delay in achieving Substantial or Final Completion as a
result of any unreasonable action or delay on the part of the Owner.
G. Final Acceptance by Owner.
The Owner shall consider the Agreement complete when the Contractor has completed in its
entirety all of the Work and the Owner has accepted all of the Work and notified the Contractor
in writing that the Work is complete. Once the Owner has approved and accepted the Work,
Contractor shall be entitled to final payment in accordance with the terms of the Contract
Documents.
H. Recovery of Damages Suffered by Third Parties.
Contractor shall be liable to Owner to the extent Owner incurs damages from a third party as a
result of Contractor's failure to fulfill all of its obligations under the Contract Documents.
Owner's recovery of any delay related damages under this Agreement through the liquidated
damages does not preclude Owner from recovering from Contractor any other non-delay related
damages that may be owed to it arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

Project Manager. Contractor shall take field measurements and verify field conditions
and shall carefully compare such field measurements and conditions and other
information known to Contractor with the Contract Documents before commencing any
portion of the Work.
1.3 Drawings are intended to show general arrangements, design and extent of Work
and are not intended to serve as shop drawings. Specifications are separated into
divisions for convenience of reference only and shall not be interpreted as establishing
divisions for the Work, trades, subcontracts, or extent of any part of the Work. In the
event of a discrepancy between or among the drawings, specifications or other Contract
Document provisions, Contractor shall be required to comply with the provision which is
the more restrictive or stringent requirement upon the Contractor, as determined by the
Project Manager. Unless otherwise specifically mentioned, all anchors, bolts, screws,
fittings, fillers, hardware, accessories, trim and other parts required in connection with
any portion of the Work to make a complete, serviceable, finished and first quality
installation shall be furnished and installed as part of the Work, whether or not called for
by the Contract Documents.
2. INVESTIGATION AND UTILITIES.
2.1 Subject to Section 2.3 below, Contractor shall have the sole responsibility of
satisfying itself concerning the nature and location of the Work and the general and
local conditions, and particularly, but without limitation, with respect to the following:
those affecting transportation, access, disposal, handling and storage of materials;

availability and quality of labor; water and electric power; availability and condition of
roads; work area; living facilities; climatic conditions and seasons; physical conditions at
the work-site and the project area as a whole; topography and ground surface
conditions; nature and quantity of the surface materials to be encountered; subsurface
conditions; equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during performance of
the Work; and all other costs associated with such performance. The failure of
Contractor to acquaint itself with any applicable conditions shall not relieve Contractor
from any of its responsibilities to perform under the Contract Documents, nor shall it be
considered the basis for any claim for additional time or compensation.
2.2 Contractor shall locate all existing roadways, railways, drainage facilities and
utility services above, upon, or under the Project site, said roadways, railways, drainage
facilities and utilities being referred to in this Sub-Section 2.2 as the "Utilities".
Contractor shall contact the owners of all Utilities to determine the necessity for
relocating or temporarily interrupting any Utilities during the construction of the Project.
Contractor shall schedule and coordinate its Work around any such relocation or
temporary service interruption. Contractor shall be responsible for properly shoring,
supporting and protecting all Utilities at all times during the course of the Work. The
Contractor is responsible for coordinating all other utility work so as to not interfere with
the prosecution of the Work (except those utilities to be coordinated by the Owner as
may be expressly described elsewhere in the Contract Documents).
2.3 Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, if conditions
are encountered at the Project site which are (i) subsurface or otherwise concealed
physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract
Documents or (ii) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, which differ
materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in
construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, and
which reasonably should not have been discovered by Contractor as part of its scope of
site investigative services required pursuant to the terms of the Contract Documents,
then Contractor shall provide Owner with prompt written notice thereof before conditions
are disturbed and in no event later than three (3) calendar days after first observance of
such conditions. Owner and Design Professional shall promptly investigate such
conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in
Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, Owner
will acknowledge and agree to an equitable adjustment to Contractor's compensation or
time for performance, or both, for such Work. If Owner determines that the conditions at
the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents or
not of an unusual nature or should have been discovered by Contractor as part of its
investigative services, and that no change in the terms of the Agreement is justified,
Owner shall so notify Contractor in writing, stating its reasons. Claims by Contractor in
opposition to such determination by Owner must be made within seven (7) calendar
days after Contractor's receipt of Owner's written determination notice. If Owner and
Contractor cannot agree on an adjustment to Contractor's cost or time of performance,
the dispute resolution procedure set forth in the Contract Documents shall be complied
with by the parties.

Owner's sole discretion, Owner is not required to make any payment for materials or
equipment that have not been incorporated into the Project. If payment is requested on
the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated into the Project, but delivered
and suitably stored at the site or at another location, and such payment and storage
have been agreed to by Owner in writing, the Application for Payment also shall be
accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other documentation warranting that the Owner
has received the materials and equipment free and clear of all liens, charges, security
interests and encumbrances, together with evidence that the materials and equipment
are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect
Owner's interest therein, all of which shall be subject to the Owner's satisfaction.
Thereafter, with each Application for Payment, Contractor also shall complete and
submit to Owner as part of its Application for Payment, the Stored Materials Record
attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit D.
4.5 Contractor shall submit six (6) copies of its monthly Application for Payment to

include the Design Professional). After the date of each Application for Payment is
stamped as received and within the timeframes set forth in Section 218.735 F.S., the
Project Manager, or Design Professional, shall either: (1) Indicate its approval of the
requested payment; (2) indicate its approval of only a portion of the requested payment,
stating in writing its reasons therefore; or (3) return the Application for Payment to the
Contractor indicating, in writing, the reason for refusing to approve payment. Payments
of proper invoices in the amounts approved shall be processed and paid in accordance
with Section 218.735, F.S. and the administrative procedures established by the
County's Purchasing Department and the Clerk of Court's Finance Department
respectively.
In the event of a total denial by Owner and return of the Application for Payment by the
Project Manager, the Contractor may make the necessary corrections and re-submit the
Application for Payment. The Owner shall, within ten (10) business days after the
Application for Payment is stamped and received and after Project Manager approval of
an Application for Payment, pay the Contractor the amounts so approved.
4.6 Owner shall retain ten percent (10%) of the gross amount of each monthly
payment request or ten percent (10%) of the portion thereof approved by the Project
Manager for payment, whichever is less. Such sum shall be accumulated and not
released to Contractor until final payment is due unless otherwise agreed to by the
Owner in accordance with Florida Statute 255.078. The Project Manager shall have the
discretion to establish, in writing, a schedule to periodically reduce the percentage of
cumulative retainage held throughout the course of the Project schedule. Owner shall
reduce the amount of the retainage withheld on each payment request subsequent to
fifty percent (50%) completion subject to the guidelines set forth in Florida Statute
255.078 and as set forth in the Owner's purchasing ordinance and policies.

4.7 Monthly payments to Contractor shall in no way imply approval or acceptance of
Contractor's Work.
4.8 Each Application for Payment, subsequent to the first pay application, shall be
accompanied by a Release and Affidavit, in the form attached as Exhibit C,
acknowledging Contractor's receipt of payment in full for all materials, labor, equipment
and other bills that are then due and payable by Owner with respect to the current
Application for Payment. Further, to the extent directed by Owner and in Owner's sole
discretion, Contractor shall also submit a Release and Affidavit from each
Subcontractor, sub-subcontractor, or supplier in the form attached as Exhibit C
acknowledging that each Subcontractor, sub-subcontractor or supplier has been paid in
full through the previous month's Application for Payment. The Owner shall not be
required to make payment until and unless these affidavits are furnished by Contractor.
4.9 Contractor agrees and understands that funding limitations exist and that the
expenditure of funds must be spread over the duration of the Project at regular intervals
based on the Contract Amount and Progress Schedule. Accordingly, prior to submitting
its first monthly Application for Payment, Contractor shall prepare and submit for Project
Manager's review and approval, a detailed Project Funding Schedule, which shall be
updated as necessary and approved by Owner to reflect approved adjustments to the
Contract Amount and Contract Time. No voluntary acceleration or early completion of
the Work shall modify the time of payments to Contractor as set forth in the approved
Project Funding Schedule.
4.10 Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, Contractor
acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a dispute concerning payments for Work
performed under this Agreement, Contractor shall continue to perform the Work
required of it under this Agreement pending resolution of the dispute provided that
Owner continues to pay Contractor all amounts that Owner does not dispute are due
and payable.
4.11 Payments will be made for services furnished, delivered, and accepted, upon
receipt and approval of invoices submitted on the date of services or within six (6)
months after completion of contract. Any untimely submission of invoices beyond the
specified deadline period is subject to non-payment under the legal doctrine of "laches"
as untimely submitted. Time shall be deemed of the essence with respect to the timely
submission of invoices under this agreement.
4.12 The County may, at its discretion, use VISA/MASTER card credit network as a
payment vehicle for goods and/or services purchased as a part of this contract. The

portions thereof, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent
53
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
inspections that reveal non-compliance with the Contract Documents. The Project
Manager may nullify the whole or any part of any approval for payment previously
issued and Owner may withhold any payments otherwise due Contractor under this
Agreement or any other agreement between Owner and Contractor, to such extent as
may be necessary in the Owner's opinion to protect it from loss because of:
(a) Defective Work not remedied; (b) third party claims filed or reasonable evidence
indicating probable filing of such claims; (c) failure of Contractor to make payment
properly to subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment; (d) reasonable doubt
that the Work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Amount; (e)
reasonable indication that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time; (f)
unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by the Contractor; or (g) any other material
breach of the Contract Documents by Contractor.
5.2 If any conditions described in 5.1. are not remedied or removed, Owner may,
after three (3) days written notice, rectify the same at Contractor's expense. Provided
however, in the event of an emergency, Owner shall not be required to provide
Contractor any written notice prior to rectifying the situation at Contractor's expense.
Owner also may offset against any sums due Contractor the amount of any liquidated or
non-liquidated obligations of Contractor to Owner, whether relating to or arising out of
this Agreement or any other agreement between Contractor and Owner.
5.3 In instances where the successful contractor may owe debts (including, but not
limited to taxes or other fees) to Collier County and the contractor has not satisfied nor (
made arrangement to satisfy these debts, the County reserves the right to off-set the
amount owed to the County by applying the amount owed to the vendor or contractor for
services performed of for materials delivered in association with a contract.
6. FINAL PAYMENT.
6.1 Owner shall make final payment to Contractor in accordance with Section
218.735, F.S. and the administrative procedures established by the County's
Purchasing Department and the Clerk of Court's Finance Department after the Work is
finally inspected and accepted by Project Manager as set forth with Section 20.1 herein,
provided that Contractor first, and as an explicit condition precedent to the accrual of
Contractor's right to final payment, shall have furnished Owner with a properly executed
and notarized copy of the Release and Affidavit attached as Exhibit C, as well as, a duly
executed copy of the Surety's consent to final payment and such other documentation
that may be required by the Contract Documents and the Owner. Prior to release of
final payment and final retainage, the Contractor's Representative and the Project
Manager shall jointly complete the Final Payment Checklist, a representative copy of
which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit G.
6.2 Contractor's acceptance of final payment shall constitute a full waiver of any and
all claims by Contractor against Owner arising out of this Agreement or otherwise
relating to the Project, except those previously made in writing in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract Documents and identified by Contractor as unsettled in its
54
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
(11(9
final Application for Payment. Neither the acceptance of the Work nor payment by
Owner shall be deemed to be a waiver of Owner's right to enforce any obligations of
Contractor hereunder or to the recovery of damages for defective Work not discovered
by the Design Professional or Project Manager at the time of final inspection.
7. SUBMITTALS AND SUBSTITUTIONS.
7.1 Contractor shall carefully examine the Contract Documents for all requirements
for approval of materials to be submitted such as shop drawings, data, test results,
schedules and samples. Contractor shall submit all such materials at its own expense
and in such form as required by the Contract Documents in sufficient time to prevent
any delay in the delivery of such materials and the installation thereof.
7.2 Whenever materials or equipment are specified or described in the Contract
Documents by using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular supplier,
the naming of the item is intended to establish the type, function and quality required.
Unless the name is followed by words indicating that no substitution is permitted,
materials or equipment of other suppliers may be accepted by Owner if sufficient
information is submitted by Contractor to allow the Owner to determine that the material
or equipment proposed is equivalent or equal to that named. Requests for review of
substitute items of material and equipment will not be accepted by Owner from anyone
other than Contractor and all such requests must be submitted by Contractor to Project
Manager within thirty (30) calendar days after Notice of Award is received by
Contractor, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by Owner and Contractor.
7.3 If Contractor wishes to furnish or use a substitute item of material or equipment,
Contractor shall make application to the Project Manager for acceptance thereof,
certifying that the proposed substitute shall adequately perform the functions and
achieve the results called for by the general design, be similar and of equal substance
to that specified and be suited to the same use as that specified. The application shall
state that the evaluation and acceptance of the proposed substitute will not prejudice
Contractor's achievement of substantial completion on time, whether or not acceptance
of the substitute for use in the Work will require a change in any of the Contract
Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with Owner for the Project)
to adapt the design to the proposed substitute and whether or not incorporation or use
by the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or
royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that specified will be identified in
the application and available maintenance, repair and replacement service shall be
indicated. The application also shall contain an itemized estimate of all costs that will
result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs for
redesign and claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which
shall be considered by the Project Manager in evaluating the proposed substitute. The
Project Manager may require Contractor to furnish at Contractor's expense additional
data about the proposed substitute.
7.4 If a specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction is
indicated in or required by the Contract Documents, Contractor may furnish or utilize a
55
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015 ( �
substitute means, method, sequence, technique or procedure of construction
acceptable to the Project Manager, if Contractor submits sufficient information to allow
the Project Manager to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that
indicated or required by the Contract Documents. The procedures for submission to
and review by the Project Manager shall be the same as those provided herein for
substitute materials and equipment.
7.5 The Project Manager shall be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate
each proposed substitute and, if need be, to consult with the Design Professional. No
substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized without the Project Manager's prior written
acceptance which shall be evidenced by a Change Order, a Work Directive Change, a
Field Order or an approved Shop Drawing. The Owner may require Contractor to
furnish at Contractor's expense a special performance guarantee or other surety with
respect to any substitute. The Project Manager will record time required by the Project
Manager and the Project Manager's consultants in evaluating substitutions proposed by
Contractor and making changes in the Contract Documents occasioned thereby.
Whether or not the Owner accepts a proposed substitute, Contractor shall reimburse
Owner for the charges of the Design Professional and the Design Professional's
consultants for evaluating each proposed substitute.
8. DAILY REPORTS, SIGNED AND SEALED AS-BUILTS AND MEETINGS.
8.1 Unless waived in writing by Owner, Contractor shall complete and submit to
Project Manager on a weekly basis a daily log of the Contractor's work for the preceding
week in a format approved by the Project Manager. The daily log shall document all
activities of Contractor at the Project site including, but not limited to, the following:

8.1.9 A list of all visitors to the Project
8.1.10 Any problems that might impact either the cost or quality of the Work or
the time of performance.
The daily log shall not constitute nor take the place of any notice required to be given by
Contractor to Owner pursuant to the Contract Documents.
8.2 Contractor shall maintain in a safe place at the Project site one record copy of
the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, all drawings, specifications,
addenda, amendments, Change Orders, Work Directive Changes and Field Orders, as
well as all written interpretations and clarifications issued by the Design Professional, in
good order and annotated to show all changes made during construction. The
annotated drawings shall be continuously updated by the Contractor throughout the
prosecution of the Work to accurately reflect all field changes that are made to adapt the
Work to field conditions, changes resulting from Change Orders, Work Directive
Changes and Field Orders, and all concealed and buried installations of piping, conduit
and utility services. All buried and concealed items, both inside and outside the Project
site, shall be accurately located on the annotated drawings as to depth and in
relationship to not less than two (2) permanent features (e.g. interior or exterior wall
faces). The annotated drawings shall be clean and all changes, corrections and
dimensions shall be given in a neat and legible manner in a contrasting color. The "As-
Built" record documents, together with all approved samples and a counterpart of all
approved shop drawings shall be available to the Project Manager or Design
Professional for reference. Upon completion of the Work and as a condition precedent
to Contractor's entitlement to final payment, these "As-Built" record documents, samples
and shop drawings shall be delivered to Project Manager by Contractor for Owner.
8.3 Contractor shall keep all records and supporting documentation, which concern
or relate to the Work hereunder for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of
termination of this Agreement or the date the Project is completed or such longer period
as may be required by law, whichever is later, pursuant to Florida Public Records Law
Chapter 119, including specifically those contractual requirements in F.S. §
119.0701(2(a) — (d) and (3) as follows:
(2) In addition to other contract requirements provided by law, each public
agency contract for services must include a provision that requires the
contractor to comply with public records laws, specifically to:
(a) Keep and maintain public records that ordinarily and necessarily would
be required by the public agency in order to perform the service.
(b) Provide the public with access to public records on the same terms and
conditions that the public agency would provide the records and at a
cost that does not exceed the cost provided in this chapter or as
otherwise provided by law.
(c) Ensure that public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt
from public records disclosure requirements are not disclosed except as
authorized by law.
57
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations: nir Revised 07012015
(d) Meet all requirements for retaining public records and transfer, at no
cost, to the public agency all public records in possession of the
contractor upon termination of the contract and destroy any duplicate
public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public
records disclosure requirements. All records stored electronically must
be provided to the public agency in a format that is compatible with the
information technology systems of the public agency.
(3) If a contractor does not comply with a public records request, the public agency
shall enforce the contract provisions in accordance with the contract.
9. CONTRACT TIME AND TIME EXTENSIONS.
9.1 Contractor shall diligently pursue the completion of the Work and coordinate the
Work being done on the Project by its subcontractors and material-men, as well as
coordinating its Work with all work of others at the Project Site, so that its Work or the
work of others shall not be delayed or impaired by any act or omission by Contractor.
Contractor shall be solely responsible for all construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences, and procedures, as well as coordination of all portions of the Work under
the Contract Documents, and the coordination of Owner's suppliers and contractors as
set forth in Paragraph 12.2. herein.
9.2 Should Contractor be obstructed or delayed in the prosecution of or completion
of the Work as a result of unforeseeable causes beyond the control of Contractor, and
not due to its fault or neglect, including but not restricted to acts of Nature or of the
public enemy, acts of government, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine regulation,
strikes or lockouts, Contractor shall notify the Owner in writing within forty-eight (48)
hours after the commencement of such delay, stating the cause or causes thereof, or be
deemed to have waived any right which Contractor may have had to request a time
extension.
9.3 No interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay in the
commencement or progress of the Work from any cause whatever, including those for
which Owner may be responsible, in whole or in part, shall relieve Contractor of its duty
to perform or give rise to any right to damages or additional compensation from Owner.
Contractor expressly acknowledges and agrees that it shall receive no damages for
delay. Contractor's sole remedy, if any, against Owner will be the right to seek an
extension to the Contract Time; provided, however, the granting of any such time
extension shall not be a condition precedent to the aforementioned "No Damage For
Delay" provision. This paragraph shall expressly apply to claims for early completion,
as well as to claims based on late completion.
9.4 In no event shall any approval by Owner authorizing Contractor to continue
performing Work under this Agreement or any payment issued by Owner to Contractor
be deemed a waiver of any right or claim Owner may have against Contractor for delay
damages hereunder.

10. CHANGES IN THE WORK.
10.1 Owner shall have the right at any time during the progress of the Work to
increase or decrease the Work. Promptly after being notified of a change, Contractor
shall submit an itemized estimate of any cost or time increases or savings it foresees as
a result of the change. Except in an emergency endangering life or property, or as
expressly set forth herein, no addition or changes to the Work shall be made except
upon written order of Owner, and Owner shall not be liable to the Contractor for any
increased compensation without such written order. No officer, employee or agent of
Owner is authorized to direct any extra or changed work orally. Any alleged changes
must be approved by Owner in writing prior to starting such items. Owner will not be
responsible for the costs of any changes commenced without Owner's express prior
written approval. Failure to obtain such prior written approval for any changes will be
deemed: (i) a waiver of any claim by Contractor for such items and (ii) an admission by
Contractor that such items are in fact not a change but rather are part of the Work
required of Contractor hereunder.
10.2 A Change Order, in the form attached as Exhibit E to this Agreement, shall be
issued and executed promptly after an agreement is reached between Contractor and
Owner concerning the requested changes. Contractor shall promptly perform changes
authorized by duly executed Change Orders. The Contract Amount and Contract Time
shall be adjusted in the Change Order in the manner as Owner and Contractor shall
mutually agree.
10.3 If Owner and Contractor are unable to agree on a Change Order for the
requested change, Contractor shall, nevertheless, promptly perform the change as
directed by Owner in a written Work Directive Change. In that event, the Contract
Amount and Contract Time shall be adjusted as directed by Owner. If Contractor
disagrees with the Owner's adjustment determination, Contractor must make a claim
pursuant to Section 11 of these General Conditions or else be deemed to have waived
any claim on this matter it might otherwise have had.
10.4 In the event a requested change results in an increase to the Contract Amount,
the amount of the increase shall be limited to the Contractor's reasonable direct labor
and material costs and reasonable actual equipment costs as a result of the change
(including allowance for labor burden costs) plus a maximum ten percent (10%) markup
for all overhead and profit. In the event such change Work is performed by a
Subcontractor, a maximum ten percent (10%) markup for all overhead and profit for all
Subcontractors' and sub-subcontractors' direct labor and material costs and actual
equipment costs shall be permitted, with a maximum five percent (5%) markup thereon
by the Contractor for all of its overhead and profit, for a total maximum markup of fifteen
percent (15%). All compensation due Contractor and any Subcontractor or sub-
subcontractor for field and home office overhead is included in the markups noted
above. Contractor's and Sub-Contractor's bond costs associated with any change order
shall be included in the overhead and profit expenses and shall not be paid as a
separate line item. No markup shall be placed on sales tax, shipping or subcontractor
markup.

10.5 Owner shall have the right to conduct an audit of Contractor's books and records
to verify the accuracy of the Contractor's claim with respect to Contractor's costs
associated with any Change Order or Work Directive Change.
10.6 The Project Manager shall have authority to order minor changes in the Work not
involving an adjustment to the Contract Amount or an extension to the Contract Time
and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes may be
effected by Field Order or by other written order. Such changes shall be binding on the
Contractor.
10.7 Any modifications to this Contract shall be in compliance with the County
purchasing ordinance and policies and Administrative Procedures in effect at the time
such modifications are authorized.
11. CLAIMS AND DISPUTES.
11.1 Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking an adjustment or
interpretation of the terms of the Contract Documents, payment of money, extension of
time or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract Documents. The term
"Claim" also includes other disputes and matters in question between Owner and
Contractor arising out of or relating to the Contract Documents. The responsibility to
substantiate a Claim shall rest with the party making the Claim.
11.2 Claims by the Contractor shall be made in writing to the Project Manager within
forty-eight (48) hours from when the Contractor knew or should have known of the event
giving rise to such Claim or else the Contractor shall be deemed to have waived the
Claim. Written supporting data shall be submitted to the Project Manager within fifteen
(15) calendar days after the occurrence of the event, unless the Owner grants additional
time in writing, or else the Contractor shall be deemed to have waived the Claim. All
Claims shall be priced in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 10.4.
11.3 The Contractor shall proceed diligently with its performance as directed by the
Owner, regardless of any pending Claim, action, suit or administrative proceeding,
unless otherwise agreed to by the Owner in writing. Owner shall continue to make
payments in accordance with the Contract Documents during the pendency of any
Claim.

12.1 Owner may perform other work related to the Project at the site by Owner's own
forces, have other work performed by utility owners or let other direct contracts. If the
fact that such other work is to be performed is not noted in the Contract Documents,
written notice thereof will be given to Contractor prior to starting any such other work. If
Contractor believes that such performance will involve additional expense to Contractor
or require additional time, Contractor shall send written notice of that fact to Owner and
Design Professional within forty-eight (48) hours of being notified of the other work. If
the Contractor fails to send the above required forty-eight (48) hour notice, the
60

e
Contractor will be deemed to have waived any rights it otherwise may have had to seek
an extension to the Contract Time or adjustment to the Contract Amount.
12.2 Contractor shall afford each utility owner and other contractor who is a party to
such a direct contract (or Owner, if Owner is performing the additional work with
Owner's employees) proper and safe access to the site and a reasonable opportunity
for the introduction and storage of materials and equipment and the execution of such
work and shall properly connect and coordinate its Work with theirs. Contractor shall do
all cutting, fitting and patching of the Work that may be required to make its several
parts come together properly and integrate with such other work. Contractor shall not
endanger any work of others by cutting, excavating or otherwise altering their work and
will only cut or alter their work with the written consent of the Project Manager and the
others whose work will be affected. The duties and responsibilities of Contractor under
this paragraph are for the benefit of such utility owners and other Contractors to the
extent that there are comparable provisions for the benefit of Contractor in said direct
contracts between Owner and such utility owners and other contractors.
12.3 If any part of Contractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon the
work of any other contractor or utility owner (or Owner), Contractor shall inspect and
promptly report to Project Manager in writing any delays, defects or deficiencies in such
work that render it unavailable or unsuitable for such proper execution and results.
Contractor's failure to report will constitute an acceptance of the other work as fit and
proper for integration with Contractor's Work.
13. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE.
13.1 To the maximum extent permitted by Florida law, Contractor shall indemnify and
hold harmless Owner and its officers and employees from any and all liabilities, claims,
damages, penalties, demands, judgments, actions, proceedings, losses or costs,
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees, whether
resulting from any claimed breach of this Agreement by Contractor, any statutory or
regulatory violations, or from personal injury, property damage, direct or consequential
damages, or economic loss, to the extent caused by the negligence, recklessness, or
intentional wrongful misconduct of Contractor or anyone employed or utilized by the
Contractor in the performance of this Agreement.
13.2 The duty to defend under this Article 13 is independent and separate from the
duty to indemnify, and the duty to defend exists regardless of any ultimate liability of the
Contractor, Owner and any indemnified party. The duty to defend arises immediately
upon presentation of a claim by any party and written notice of such claim being
provided to Contractor. Contractor's obligation to indemnify and defend under this
Article 13 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until it is
determined by final judgment that an action against the Owner or an indemnified party
for the matter indemnified hereunder is fully and finally barred by the applicable statute
of limitations.

laws, codes, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and requirements applicable to the
Project, including but not limited to those dealing with taxation, worker's compensation,
equal employment and safety (including, but not limited to, the Trench Safety Act,
Chapter 553, Florida Statutes). If Contractor observes that the Contract Documents are
at variance therewith, it shall promptly notify Project Manager in writing. To the extent
any law, rule, regulation, code, statute, or ordinance requires the inclusion of certain
terms in this Agreement in order for this Agreement to be enforceable, such terms shall
be deemed included in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in the Contract
Documents to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that in the event of a change in
any applicable laws, ordinances, rules or regulations subsequent to the date this
Agreement was executed that increases the Contractor's time or cost of performance of
the Work, Contractor is entitled to a Change Order for such increases, except to the
extent Contractor knew or should have known of such changes prior to the date of this
Agreement.
14.2 By executing and entering into this agreement, the Contractor is formally
acknowledging without exception or stipulation that it is fully responsible for complying
with the provisions of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 as located at 8
U.S.C. 1324, et seq. and regulations relating thereto, as either may be amended.
Failure by the Contractor to comply with the laws referenced herein shall constitute a
breach of this agreement and the County shall have the discretion to unilaterally
terminate this agreement immediately.
14.3 Statutes and executive orders require employers to abide by the immigration laws
of the United States and to employ only individuals who are eligible to work in the
United States.
The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify) operated by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA),
provides an Internet-based means of verifying employment eligibility of workers in the
United States; it is not a substitute for any other employment eligibility verification
requirements. The program will be used for Collier County formal Invitations to Bid
(ITB) and Request for Proposals (RFP) including professional services and construction
services.

Reform and Control Act of 1986 as located at 8 U.S.C. 1324, et seq. and regulations
relating thereto, as either may be amended and with the provisions contained within this
affidavit. Failure by the awarded firm(s) to comply with the laws referenced herein or
the provisions of this affidavit shall constitute a breach of the award agreement and the
County shall have the discretion to unilaterally terminate said agreement immediately.
15. CLEANUP AND PROTECTIONS.
15.1 Contractor agrees to keep the Project site clean at all times of debris, rubbish
and waste materials arising out of the Work. At the completion of the Work, Contractor
shall remove all debris, rubbish and waste materials from and about the Project site, as
well as all tools, appliances, construction equipment and machinery and surplus
materials, and shall leave the Project site clean and ready for occupancy by Owner.
15.2 Any existing surface or subsurface improvements, including, but not limited to,
pavements, curbs, sidewalks, pipes, utilities, footings, structures, trees and shrubbery,
not indicated in the Contract Documents to be removed or altered, shall be protected by

consent in writing of Owner. Any attempt to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement,
63
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:

II
or any part herein, without the Owner's consent, shall be void. If Contractor does, with
approval, assign this Agreement or any part thereof, it shall require that its assignee be
bound to it and to assume toward Contractor all of the obligations and responsibilities
that Contractor has assumed toward Owner.
17. PERMITS, LICENSES AND TAXES.
17.1 Pursuant to Section 218.80, F.S., Owner will pay for all Collier County permits
and fees, including license fees, permit fees, impact fees or inspection fees applicable
to the Work through an internal budget transfer(s). Contractor is not responsible for
paying for permits issued by Collier County, but Contractor is responsible for acquiring
all permits. Owner may require the Contractor to deliver internal budget transfer
documents to applicable Collier County agencies when the Contractor is acquiring
permits. Owner will not be obligated to pay for any permits obtained by Subcontractors.
17.2 All permits, fees and licenses necessary for the prosecution of the Work which
are not issued by Collier County shall be acquired and paid for by the Contractor.
17.3 Contractor shall pay all sales, consumer, use and other similar taxes associated

Work.
18. TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT.
18.1 Contractor shall be considered in material default of the Agreement and such
default shall be considered cause for Owner to terminate the Agreement, in whole or in
part, as further set forth in this Section, if Contractor: (1) fails to begin the Work under
the Contract Documents within the time specified herein; or (2) fails to properly and
timely perform the Work as directed by the Project Manager or as provided for in the

obey any applicable codes, laws, ordinances, rules or regulations with respect to the
Work; or (10) materially breaches any other provision of the Contract Documents.
18.2 Owner shall notify Contractor in writing of Contractor's default(s). If Owner
determines that Contractor has not remedied and cured the default(s) within seven (7)
calendar days following receipt by Contractor of said written notice or such longer
period of time as may be consented to by Owner in writing and in its sole discretion,
then Owner, at its option, without releasing or waiving its rights and remedies against
the Contractor's sureties and without prejudice to any other right or remedy it may be
entitled to hereunder or by law, may terminate Contractor's right to proceed under the
Agreement, in whole or in part, and take possession of all or any portion of the Work
64
ITB 15-6488

and any materials, tools, equipment, and appliances of Contractor, take assignments of
any of Contractor's subcontracts and purchase orders, and complete all or any portion
of Contractor's Work by whatever means, method or agency which Owner, in its sole
discretion, may choose.
18.3 If Owner deems any of the foregoing remedies necessary, Contractor agrees that
it shall not be entitled to receive any further payments hereunder until after the Project is
completed. All moneys expended and all of the costs, losses, damages and extra
expenses, including all management, administrative and other overhead and other
direct and indirect expenses (including Design Professional and attorneys' fees) or
damages incurred by Owner incident to such completion, shall be deducted from the
Contract Amount, and if such expenditures exceed the unpaid balance of the Contract
Amount, Contractor agrees to pay promptly to Owner on demand the full amount of
such excess, including costs of collection, attorneys' fees (including appeals) and
interest thereon at the maximum legal rate of interest until paid. If the unpaid balance of
the Contract Amount exceeds all such costs, expenditures and damages incurred by the
Owner to complete the Work, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. The amount
to be paid to the Contractor or Owner, as the case may be, shall be approved by the
Project Manager, upon application, and this obligation for payment shall survive
termination of the Agreement.
18.4 The liability of Contractor hereunder shall extend to and include the full amount of
any and all sums paid, expenses and losses incurred, damages sustained, and
obligations assumed by Owner in good faith under the belief that such payments or
assumptions were necessary or required, in completing the Work and providing labor,
materials, equipment, supplies, and other items therefore or re-letting the Work, and in
settlement, discharge or compromise of any claims, demands, suits, and judgments
pertaining to or arising out of the Work hereunder.
18.5 If, after notice of termination of Contractor's right to proceed pursuant to this
Section, it is determined for any reason that Contractor was not in default, or that its
default was excusable, or that Owner is not entitled to the remedies against Contractor
provided herein, then the termination will be deemed a termination for convenience and
Contractor's remedies against Owner shall be the same as and limited to those afforded
Contractor under Section 19 below.
18.6 In the event (i) Owner fails to make any undisputed payment to Contractor within
thirty (30) days after such payment is due or Owner otherwise persistently fails to fulfill
some material obligation owed by Owner to Contractor under this Agreement, and
(ii) Owner has failed to cure such default within fourteen (14) days of receiving written
notice of same from Contractor, then Contractor may stop its performance under this
Agreement until such default is cured, after giving Owner a second fourteen (14) days
written notice of Contractor's intention to stop performance under the Agreement. If the
Work is so stopped for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) consecutive days
through no act or fault of the Contractor or its Subcontractors or their agents or
employees or any other persons performing portions of the Work under contract with the
Contractor or any Subcontractor, the Contractor may terminate this Agreement by giving
65
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
written notice to Owner of Contractor's intent to terminate this Agreement. If Owner
does not cure its default within fourteen (14) days after receipt of Contractor's written
notice, Contractor may, upon fourteen (14) additional days' written notice to the Owner,
terminate the Agreement and recover from the Owner payment for Work performed
through the termination date, but in no event shall Contractor be entitled to payment for
Work not performed or any other damages from Owner.
19. TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE AND RIGHT OF SUSPENSION.
19.1 Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without cause upon
seven (7) calendar days written notice to Contractor. In the event of such termination
for convenience, Contractor's recovery against Owner shall be limited to that portion of
the Contract Amount earned through the date of termination, together with any
retainage withheld and reasonable termination expenses incurred, but Contractor shall
not be entitled to any other or further recovery against Owner, including, but not limited
to, damages or any anticipated profit on portions of the Work not performed.
19.2 Owner shall have the right to suspend all or any portions of the Work upon giving
Contractor not less than two (2) calendar days' prior written notice of such suspension.
If all or any portion of the Work is so suspended, Contractor's sole and exclusive
remedy shall be to seek an extension of time to its schedule in accordance with the
procedures set forth in the Contract Documents. In no event shall the Contractor be
entitled to any additional compensation or damages. Provided, however, if the ordered
suspension exceeds six (6) months, the Contractor shall have the right to terminate the
Agreement with respect to that portion of the Work which is subject to the ordered
suspension.
20. COMPLETION.
20.1 When the entire Work (or any portion thereof designated in writing by Owner) is
ready for its intended use, Contractor shall notify Project Manager in writing that the
entire Work (or such designated portion) is substantially complete. Within a reasonable
time thereafter, Owner, Contractor and Design Professional shall make an inspection of
the Work (or designated portion thereof) to determine the status of completion. If
Owner, after conferring with the Design Professional, does not consider the Work (or
designated portion) substantially complete, Project Manager shall notify Contractor in
writing giving the reasons therefore. If Owner, after conferring with the Design
Professional, considers the Work (or designated portion) substantially complete, Project
Manager shall prepare and deliver to Contractor a Certificate of Substantial Completion
which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion for the entire Work (or designated
portion thereof) and include a tentative punch-list of items to be completed or corrected
by Contractor before final payment. Owner shall have the right to exclude Contractor
from the Work and Project site (or designated portion thereof) after the date of
Substantial Completion, but Owner shall allow Contractor reasonable access to
complete or correct items on the tentative punch-list. The Project Manager, shall
coordinate with the Contractor the return of any surplus assets, including materials,
supplies, and equipment.
66

Revised 07012015
20.2 Upon receipt of written certification by Contractor that the Work is completed in
accordance with the Contract Documents and is ready for final inspection and
acceptance, Project Manager and Design Professional will make such inspection and, if
they find the Work acceptable and fully performed under the Contract Documents shall
promptly approve payment, recommending that, on the basis of their observations and
inspections, and the Contractor's certification that the Work has been completed in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents, that the entire
balance found to be due Contractor is due and payable. Neither the final payment nor
the retainage shall become due and payable until Contractor submits:
(1) Receipt of Contractor's Final Application for Payment.
(2) The Release and Affidavit in the form attached as Exhibit C.
(3) Consent of surety to final payment.
(4) Receipt of the final payment check list.
(5) If required by Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of all
obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, arising out of
the Contract Documents, to the extent and in such form as may be
designated by Owner.
Owner reserves the right to inspect the Work and make an independent determination
as to the Work's acceptability, even though the Design Professional may have issued its
recommendations. Unless and until the Owner is completely satisfied, neither the final
payment nor the retainage shall become due and payable.
21. WARRANTY.
21.1 Contractor shall obtain and assign to Owner all express warranties given to
Contractor or any subcontractors by any subcontractor or material men supplying
materials, equipment or fixtures to be incorporated into the Project. Contractor warrants
to Owner that any materials and equipment furnished under the Contract Documents
shall be new unless otherwise specified, and that all Work shall be of good quality, free
from all defects and in conformance with the Contract Documents. Contractor further
warrants to Owner that all materials and equipment furnished under the Contract
Documents shall be applied, installed, connected, erected, used, cleaned and
conditioned in accordance with the instructions of the applicable manufacturers,
fabricators, suppliers or processors except as otherwise provided for in the Contract
Documents. If, within one (1) year after Substantial Completion, any Work is found, to
be defective or not in conformance with the Contract Documents, Contractor shall
correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from Owner. Contractor shall also be
responsible for and pay for replacement or repair of adjacent materials or Work which
may be damaged as a result of such replacement or repair. Further, in the event of an
emergency, Owner may commence to correct any defective Work, without prior notice
to Contractor, at Contractor's expense. These warranties are in addition to those
implied warranties to which Owner is entitled as a matter of law.
21.2 No later than 30 days prior to expiration of the warranty, the Project Manager, or
another representative of the Owner, shall conduct an inspection of the warranted work
67
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations:
Revised 07012015
to verify compliance with the requirements of the Agreement. The Contractor's
Representative shall be present at the time of inspection and shall take remedial actions
to correct any deficiencies noted in the inspection. Failure of the Contractor to correct
the cited deficiencies shall be grounds for the Owner to disqualify the Contractor from
future bid opportunities with the Owner, in addition to any other rights and remedies
available to Owner.
22. TESTS AND INSPECTIONS.
22.1 Owner, Design Professional, their respective representatives, agents and
employees, and governmental agencies with jurisdiction over the Project shall have
access at all times to the Work, whether the Work is being performed on or off of the
Project site, for their observation, inspection and testing. Contractor shall provide
proper, safe conditions for such access. Contractor shall provide Project Manager with
timely notice of readiness of the Work for all required inspections, tests or approvals.
22.2 If the Contract Documents or any codes, laws, ordinances, rules or regulations of
any public authority having jurisdiction over the Project requires any portion of the Work
to be specifically inspected, tested or approved, Contractor shall assume full
responsibility therefore, pay all costs in connection therewith and furnish Project
Manager the required certificates of inspection, testing or approval. All inspections,
tests or approvals shall be performed in a manner and by organizations acceptable to
the Project Manager.
22.3 Contractor is responsible, without reimbursement from Owner, for re-inspection
fees and costs; to the extent such re-inspections are due to the fault or neglect of
Contractor.
22.4 If any Work that is to be inspected, tested or approved is covered without written
concurrence from the Project Manager, such work must, if requested by Project
Manager, be uncovered for observation. Such uncovering shall be at Contractor's
expense unless Contractor has given Project Manager timely notice of Contractor's
intention to cover the same and Project Manager has not acted with reasonable
promptness to respond to such notice. If any Work is covered contrary to written
directions from Project Manager, such Work must, if requested by Project Manager, be
uncovered for Project Manager's observation and be replaced at Contractor's sole
expense.
22.5 The Owner shall charge to Contractor and may deduct from any payments due
Contractor all engineering and inspection expenses incurred by Owner in connection
with any overtime work. Such overtime work consisting of any work during the
construction period beyond the regular eight (8) hour day and for any work performed
on Saturday, Sunday or holidays.
22.6 Neither observations nor other actions by the Project Manager or Design
Professional nor inspections, tests or approvals by others shall relieve Contractor from
68

Contractor's obligations to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents.
23. DEFECTIVE WORK.
23.1 Work not conforming to the requirements of the Contract Documents or any
warranties made or assigned by Contractor to Owner shall be deemed defective Work.
If required by Project Manager, Contractor shall as directed, either correct all defective
Work, whether or not fabricated, installed or completed, or if the defective Work has
been rejected by Project Manager, remove it from the site and replace it with non-
defective Work. Contractor shall bear all direct, indirect and consequential costs of
such correction or removal (including, but not limited to fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys and other professionals) made necessary thereby, and shall hold
Owner harmless for same.
23.2 If the Project Manager considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be
observed by Design Professional or inspected or tested by others and such Work is not
otherwise required to be inspected or tested, Contractor, at Project Manager's request,
shall uncover, expose or otherwise make available for observation, inspection or tests
as Project Manager may require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all
necessary labor, material and equipment. If it is found that such Work is defective,
Contractor shall bear all direct, indirect and consequential costs of such uncovering,
exposure, observation, inspection and testing and of satisfactory reconstruction
(including, but not limited to, fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and
other professionals), and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
Contract Amount. If, however, such Work is not found to be defective, Contractor shall
be allowed an increase in the Contract Amount and/or an extension to the Contract
Time, directly attributable to such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, testing
and reconstruction.
23.3 If any portion of the Work is defective, or if Contractor fails to supply sufficient
skilled workers, suitable materials or equipment or fails to finish or perform the Work in
such a way that the completed Work will conform to the. Contract Documents, Project
Manager may order Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause
for such order has been eliminated. The right of Project Manager to stop the Work
shall be exercised, if at all, solely for Owner's benefit and nothing herein shall be
construed as obligating the Project Manager to exercise this right for the benefit of
Design Engineer, Contractor, or any other person.
•
23.4 Should the Owner determine, at its sole opinion, it is in the Owner's best interest
to accept defective Work, the Owner may do so. Contractor shall bear all direct, indirect
and consequential costs attributable to the Owner's evaluation of and determination to
accept defective Work. If such determination is rendered prior to final payment, a
Change Order shall be executed evidencing such acceptance of such defective Work,
incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents and reflecting an
appropriate decrease in the Contract Amount. If the Owner accepts such defective
69
ITB 15-6488
Courthouse First Floor Renovations: I`to
Revised 07012015
Work after final payment, Contractor shall promptly pay Owner an appropriate amount
to adequately compensate Owner for its acceptance of the defective Work.
23.5 If Contractor fails, within a reasonable time after the written notice from Project
Manager, to correct defective Work or to remove and replace rejected defective Work
as required by Project Manager or Owner, or if Contractor fails to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents, or if Contractor fails to comply with any of the
provisions of the Contract Documents, Owner may, after seven (7) days written notice
to Contractor, correct and remedy any such deficiency. Provided, however, Owner shall
not be required to give notice to Contractor in the event of an emergency. To the extent
necessary to complete corrective and remedial action, Owner may exclude Contractor
from any or all of the Project site, take possession of all or any part of the Work, and
suspend Contractor's services related thereto, take possession of Contractor's tools,
appliances, construction equipment and machinery at the Project site and incorporate in
the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Project site or for which Owner has
paid Contractor but which are stored elsewhere. Contractor shall allow Owner, Design
Professional and their respective representatives, agents, and employees such access
to the Project site as may be necessary to enable Owner to exercise the rights and
remedies under this paragraph. All direct, indirect and consequential costs of Owner in
exercising such rights and remedies shall be charged against Contractor, and a Change
Order shall be issued, incorporating the necessary revisions to the Contract Documents,
including an appropriate decrease to the Contract Amount. Such direct, indirect and
consequential costs shall include, but not be limited to, fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys and other professionals, all court costs and all costs of repair and
replacement of work of others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or
replacement of Contractor's defective Work. Contractor shall not be allowed an
extension of the Contract Time because of any delay in performance of the Work
attributable to the exercise by Owner of Owner's rights and remedies hereunder.
24. SUPERVISION AND SUPERINTENDENTS.
24.1 Contractor shall plan, organize, supervise, schedule, monitor, direct and control
the Work competently and efficiently, devoting such attention thereto and applying such
skills and expertise as may be necessary to perform the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. Contractor shall be responsible to see that the finished Work
complies accurately with the Contract Documents. Contractor shall keep on the Work at
all times during its progress a competent resident superintendent, who shall be subject
to Owner's approval and not be replaced without prior written notice to Project Manager
except under extraordinary circumstances. The superintendent shall be employed by
the Contractor and be the Contractor's representative at the Project site and shall have
authority to act on behalf of Contractor. All communications given to the superintendent
shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor. Owner shall have the right to direct
Contractor to remove and replace its Project superintendent, with or without cause.
Attached to the Agreement as Exhibit N is a list identifying Contractor's Project
Superintendent and all of Contractor's key personnel who are assigned to the Project;
such identified personnel shall not be removed without Owner's prior written approval,
and if so removed must be immediately replaced with a person acceptable to Owner.

Revised 07012015
24.2 Contractor shall have a competent superintendent on the project at all times
whenever contractor's work crews, or work crews of other parties authorized by the
Project Manager are engaged in any activity whatsoever associated with the Project.
Should the Contractor fail to comply with the above condition, the Project Manager
shall, at his discretion, deduct from the Contractor's monthly pay estimate, sufficient
moneys to account for the Owner's loss of adequate project supervision, not as a
penalty, but as liquidated damages, separate from the liquidated damages described in
Section 5.B, for services not rendered.
25. PROTECTION OF WORK.
25.1 Contractor shall fully protect the Work from loss or damage and shall bear the
cost of any such loss or damage until final payment has been made. If Contractor or
any one for whom Contractor is legally liable for is responsible for any loss or damage
to the Work, or other work or materials of Owner or Owner's separate contractors,
Contractor shall be charged with the same, and any moneys necessary to replace such
loss or damage shall be deducted from any amounts due Contractor.
25.2 Contractor shall not load nor permit any part of any structure to be loaded in any
manner that will endanger the structure, nor shall Contractor subject any part of the
Work or adjacent property to stresses or pressures that will endanger it.
25.3 Contractor shall not disturb any benchmark established by the Owner or Design
Professional with respect to the Project. If Contractor, or its subcontractors, agents or
anyone for whom Contractor is legally liable, disturbs the Owner or Design
Professional's benchmarks, Contractor shall immediately notify Project Manager and
Design Professional. The Owner or Design Professional shall re-establish the
benchmarks and Contractor shall be liable for all costs incurred by Owner associated
therewith.
26. EMERGENCIES.
26.1 In the event of an emergency affecting the safety or protection of persons or the
Work or property at the Project site or adjacent thereto, Contractor, without special
instruction or authorization from Owner or Design Professional is obligated to act to
prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. Contractor shall give Project Manager
written notice within forty-eight (48) hours after Contractor knew or should have known
of the occurrence of the emergency, if Contractor believes that any significant changes
in the Work or variations from the Contract Documents have been caused thereby. If
the Project Manager determines that a change in the Contract Documents is required
because of the action taken in response to an emergency, a Change Order shall be
issued to document the consequences of the changes or variations. If Contractor fails
to provide the forty-eight (48) hour written notice noted above, the Contractor shall be
deemed to have waived any right it otherwise may have had to seek an adjustment to
the Contract Amount or an extension to the Contract Time.
