SUBCONTRACT BOND REQUIREMENTS

KEMP BROS. CONSTRUCTION, INC. (KBCI) may require all subcontractors bidding on projects to provide payment and performance bonds in the amount of 100% of the subcontract value. KBCI will assist with the bond premium up to 1.5% of the original contract amount for the duration of the project. KBCI 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 KBCI. KBCI shall be named the obligee and shall guarantee prompt and faithful performance of the 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 KBCI to request substitution of the Subcontractor in accordance with Section 4107 of the Public Contracting Code.

GENERAL SUBCONTRACTING REQUIREMENTS

KBCI.’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 KBCI’s bid must remain valid with the owner, as specified in the project’s specifications. Each listed subcontractor must execute KBCI’s standard subcontract agreement if KBCI is awarded the project; the standard subcontract is available for review on KBCI’s website. KBCI is currently using Textura® as its internet-based construction invoicing and payment solution. With Textura® 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® incurred by the subcontractor(s) are included in the subcontractor’s bid proposal at the time of the bid. Currently the Textura fee is 0.22% of the contract value with a maximum fee of $5,000.00.

If the project is subject to a 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.

The State of California requires all contractors bidding or working on any public works project to register with the State Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and pay an annual registration fee. All contractors awarded a public works contract must be registered with the DIR. Subcontractors providing bids or work without DIR registration will result in a DIR penalty.

Non-price terms included in competitive bids at bid time, may cause your bid to be rejected as non-responsive.  KBCI will not accept any provisions or qualifications in subcontractor bids that are not in the bid documents. By submitting a bid on this project, Subcontractor acknowledges that KBCI is relying on the price terms of your bid and that any non-price terms contrary to or in addition to the provisions in the bid documents are null and void.
