Additional Bidding Instructions

Proposals should be as few pages as are necessary to convey the relevant information. Each proposal shall include an overall “Not to Exceed” fee for the scope of work defined by the vendor for that particular repair option. As the City of Monroe is not bidding this work in the form of a conventional contract, the submission should also include any terms and conditions that will apply to the work as proposed by the vendor, and any proposed contract documents the City will need to execute. The proposal shall include a full description of the service(s) being proposed including materials and work methods, description of past experience by the vendor(s) on similar projects, costs, and any other relevant information. It will be the sole responsibility of the vendor submitting a proposal or proposals to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the request for proposals before setting forth the scope of work and costs. Additionally, the City encourages firms specializing in various aspects of the proposal outline to combine proposals when possible.
