PREOUALIFICATION REQUIREMENT: All contractors submitting are required uired q to be prequalified by the Fort Worth Water Department prior to submitting bids.

It is the bidder's responsibility to submit the following documentation: a current financial statement, an acceptable experience record, an acceptable equipment schedule and any other documents the Department may deem necessary, to the Director of the Water Department at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the date of the opening of bids. (a) The financial statement required shall have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or an independent public accountant holding a valid permit issued by an appropriate State licensing agency, and shall have been so prepared as to reflect the financial status of the submitting company. This p' statement must be current and not more than one (1) year old. In the case that a bidding date falls within the time a new statement is being prepared, the previous statement shall be updated by proper verification. For an experience record to be considered to be acceptable for given project, it �) P P g P J must reflect the experience of the firm seeking qualification in work of both the same nature and technical level as that of the project for which bids are to be received. - (c) The Director of the Water Department shall be the sole judge as to the acceptability for financial qualification to bid on any Fort worth Water Department project. (d) Bids received in excess of the bid limit shall be considered non-responsive and will be rejected as such. (e) The City, in it's sole discretion, may reject any bid for failure to demonstrate experience and/or expertise. (f) Any proposals submitted by a non-prequalified bidder shall be returned unopened, and if inadvertently opened, shall not be considered. (g) The City will attempt to notify prospective bidders whose qualifications (financial or experience) are not deemed to be appropriate to the nature and/or magnitude of the project on which bids are to be received. Failure to notify shall not be a waiver of any necessary prequalification. 2. BID SECURITY: A cashier's check, or an acceptable bidder's bond, payable to the City �" 1 of Fort Worth, in an amount of not less than five(5%)percent of the largest possible total of the bid submitted must accompany the bid, and is subject to forfeiture in the event the successful bidder fails to execute the Contract Documents with ten (10) days after the contract has been awarded. To be an acceptable surety on the bond (1) the name of the surety shall be included on the current U.S. Treasury, or 2) the surety must have capital and surplus equal to ten times the limit of the bond. The surety must be licensed to do business in the State of Texas. The amount of the bond shall not exceed the amount shown on the Treasury list or one-tenth (1/10) the total capital and surplus. 3.

This provision does not apply if this contract involves Federal funds. The appropriate blanks of the Proposal must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for the bid to meet specifications. The failure of a nonresident contractor to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. 8.
