the established goal. The appropriate City of Fort Worth Joint Venture form must be submitted for

calendar days of receipt of proposals, unless the Offeror agrees to an extension. The surety must
be licensed to do business in the state of Texas.

Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole upon Substantial

hardship on the Owner or the Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted to prevent such hardship.
