Subcontract Bond Requirements:  Kemp Bros. may require all subcontractors bidding on projects to provide payment and performance bonds in the amount of 100% of the subcontract value.  Kemp may waive the bond requirement at its sole discretion.  The payment and performance bonds must be issued by an admitted surety within ten (10) business days of the receipt of the Subcontract Agreement from Kemp.  Kemp Bros. Construction, Inc. shall be named the oblige and shall guarantee prompt and faithful performance of all subcontract scope of work and the payment of all claims for labor and materials furnished or used in and about the work to be done and performed under the subcontract agreement.  When so requested, failure by the Subcontractor to provide the requested 100% payment and performance bonds within the time allowed may be reason for Kemp to request substitution of the Subcontractor in accordance with Section 4107 of the Public Contracting Code.

General Subcontracting Requirements:  Kemp’s listing of a subcontractor is not an acceptance of any or all of that subcontractor’s conditions, qualifications, exclusions or exceptions included in the subcontractor’s bid proposal.  The subcontractor agrees that its bid will remain valid for the same period of time that Kemp’s bid must remain valid with the owner, as specified in the project’s specifications.  Each listed subcontractor must execute a standard subcontract agreement if awarded the project.  The standard subcontract is available for review at Kemp Bros. Construction, Inc.’s office by appointment.  Kemp is currently using Textura (R) as its internet-based construction invoicing and payment solution.  With Textura (R), subcontractors can electronically sign and submit pay applications, including invoices, sworn statements and conditional and/or unconditional lien waivers.  It is assumed that any costs for the use of Textura (R) incurred by the subcontractor(s) are included in the subcontractor’s bid proposal at the time of the bid.

If the project is subject to a Community Workforce Agreement, Project Labor Agreement or Project Stabilization Agreement, Subcontractor, by submitting a bid proposal, acknowledges the requirements of such agreements and further agrees to adhere to all of the requirements therein as provided in the bid documents’ General Conditions and Supplemental Conditions.
