This meeting is for the Prime Contractors, (NOT Sub-Contractors), to gain knowledge about the project and submit proof of qualifications for pre-approval. The Architect’s Project Manager will be at this meeting to collect proof of qualification documentation, clarify the bidding procedures, scope of work, identify any items of concern and answer questions from the Bidders. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to assure the Architect has been furnished all necessary pre-approval information.The Architect will assemble an official list of approved bidders two days after the meeting. The list will be limited to Contractors who attend the entire pre-bid meeting, have signed an official attendance list, have checked out official plans and specifications from the Architect, and meet the minimum Contractor qualifications. Bids submitted by Contractors who are not on the approved bidders list or do not meet these pre-bid requirements will not be opened and will be returned to the bidder.
