SECTION 2. BIDDING AND AWARD

2.01 Intent of Drawings and Specifications. The intent of these Drawings and Specifications is to prescribe definite Work or services to be undertaken, or materials, supplies, or equipment to be furnished by the Bidder if awarded the Contract. The Contract is to be carried out under the observation of the Architect and the Architect's assistants unless otherwise indicated.

In the case of a construction project, the successful Bidder or Contractor shall perform all earthwork, build all structures and incidental construction, and perform extra Work, if necessary, all in accordance with the lines, grades, typical cross-sections, details and dimensions shown on the Drawings. The Contractor shall furnish, unless otherwise provided in the special provisions or in the Contract, all materials, implements, machinery, equipment, tools, supplies and labor necessary to the prosecution and completion of the Contract.

Where the Contractor is to furnish only material, supplies, or equipment, the intent is to prescribe the qualifications, quantity, rate of delivery and location of delivery point or points.

2.02 Interpretation of Drawings and Specifications. Drawings and Specifications provide graphic and written descriptions of the character and scope of the Adopted 3 June 1997 4 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc Work. Modifications in the form of Addenda or Change Orders become an integral part of the Drawings and Specifications.

The Contract Documents are complementary; what is required by any one will be binding as if required by all. The Contract Documents are intended to describe the Work. Any Work not described will not be supplied unless reasonably inferred from Contract Documents.

Drawings and Specifications are considered inseparable documents. The Contractor must rely on both documents and must perform the work according to combined intent.

Organization of Drawings and Specifications does not imply any control over the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of the Work to be performed by any trade.

Words which have well known technical or trade meanings have those meanings in relation to materials or Work described in the Contract Documents. Where materials or equipment are specified by a trade or brand name, the intention is not to discriminate against an equal product of another manufacturer, but rather to set a definitive standard of quality or performance. The Architect will be the judge of equivalency. Any substitution of equivalent materials or equipment must be approved in writing by the Architect. The Architect may require a specifically designated material, equipment or process.

Materials specified by reference to other documents, such as Federal Specifications or other recognized standards, must be provided as described in the latest document in effect on the date Bids are received. Where more than one reference is made for a single material, the material may be furnished according to any one of the referred Specifications, at the Contractor's option.

Unless otherwise specified, all materials shall be the best of their respective kinds and shall be in all cases fully equal to approved samples. All materials furnished shall be new and free from defects and in accordance with the Specifications applying thereto.

Only Drawing dimensions or dimensions calculated from them will be used by the Contractor. Where the Work is affected by finish dimensions, the Contractor will determine and be responsible for those dimensions. On all Drawings, the figured dimensions shall govern in case of a discrepancy between the figured and scaled dimensions.

The Contractor shall take no advantage of any errors or omissions in the Drawings or Specifications. In the event of a conflict between the Drawings and the Specifications, the Specifications shall control.

2.03 Reference Specifications. When Reference is made in these Specifications to the Specifications of other agencies, organizations or departments, such Reference is made for expediency and standardization, and such Specifications referred to are hereby made a part of these Specifications.

2.04 Special Provisions. Should any construction, Work or condition which is not covered by standard Specifications be anticipated on any proposed work, special Adopted 3 June 1997 5 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc provisions for such Work will be attached to, and shall be considered a part of, the Specifications. Should any special provisions conflict with the standard Specifications, the special provisions shall govern.

2.05 Examination of Drawings, Specifications, Special Provisions and Site of Work. When a Bid is filed, it will be presumed that the Bidder has visited and carefully examined the site of the Work and has made a complete study of the Drawings, Specifications, these General Conditions, special provisions and the form of the Contract to be entered into. Information concerning soil boring and water elevations taken on the project site, if available, will be furnished upon request. This information is offered to the Bidder for information purposes only and the County will not be responsible for the information contained therein. This provision is not intended to limit any liability which a third party other than an employee or officer of the County may have to the Contractor.

In the event the Contract covers materials, supplies or equipment, the Contractor is presumed to fully understand the requirements of the County.

2.06 Measurement of Quantities. All Work completed and materials furnished under the Contract on a unit price bid shall be measured by the Architect according to standard measures, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing. Where applicable, the Contractor shall furnish the County with dray tickets with each load of materials. As a minimum, the tickets shall indicate gross, tare and net weights for each load, and the location of delivery.

2.07 Bid Quantities. On other than lump sum Bid items, the quantities listed on the Bid form are approximate and are to be used only for the comparison of Bids and the preparation of the Contract. Payment on other than lump sum Bid items will be based on the unit price Bid and the actual quantities of materials furnished or Work accomplished.

2.08 Bid. Blank spaces in the Bid form must be properly filled. The phraseology of the Bid form must not be changed and no additions or deletions shall be made to the items mentioned therein. Unauthorized conditions, limitations or provisions attached to a Bid will render it void. Explanations which are not intended as limitations or changes in the Bid may be attached to the Bid over the signature of the Bidder, but no alterations or qualifications are permitted. The unit prices Bid on any items shall govern.

The unit prices written in words govern over the unit prices written in figures, and errors of extension will be corrected. If the Bidder fails to Bid on any item, the County may, at its option, reject such Bid as incomplete, or it may elect to use the lowest amount Bid on such item by other Bidders for the purpose of comparing Bids and in the preparation of the Contract, and the Bidder shall be bound by the amount of such item as though contained in its Bid in the first instance.

A Bidder may withdraw its Bid before the expiration of the time during which Bids may be submitted, without prejudice to himself, by submitting a written request for its withdrawal to the Purchasing Agent. No Bid received after the time specified in the Notice to Bidders will be considered.

Bidders are invited to be present at the opening of Bids.

Adopted 3 June 1997 6 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc The County reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, or to waive technical defects.

2.09 Addenda. The Contractor is responsible for verifying and obtaining all Addenda related to this work. Failure to include any or all Addenda in the Bid will be considered as a basis for the rejection of a Bid.

2.10 Form of Bid and Signature. The Bid shall be made only on the form provided and shall be enclosed in the Bid envelope furnished by the County, sealed and addressed as required by the Notice to Bidders. The Bidder shall state in words and in figures the unit prices or the specific sums, as the case may be, for which it proposes to furnish the material, supplies or equipment or to perform the Work or services required by the Drawings and Specifications.

2.11 Bid Security. Each Bid must be accompanied by Bid security made payable to the County in the amount of five percent of the Bidder's maximum Bid price and in the form of a cashier's check or a Bid Bond issued by a surety meeting the requirements of Paragraph 2.20 of the General Conditions.

2.12 Delivery of Bid. Each Bid, together with the Bid Check or Bid Bond, must be placed in a sealed Bid envelope furnished by the County and so marked as to indicate its contents without being opened. If a Bid is to be mailed, this envelope must be placed in another envelope which must be sealed, mailed and delivered to the Purchasing Agent. Bids are received until the designated time and date set for the opening thereof and must be received by the Purchasing Agent's Office by that time. Mailing of Bids is solely at the Bidder's risk, and no Bid received after the time specified in the Notice to Bidders will be considered.

2.13 Tax Exemptions. The Bidder obligates himself, if awarded the Contract, to use reasonable diligence to obtain for the County any and all exemptions from State or Federal excise or other tax and if required to pay such taxes or if such taxes are paid, to assist the County in any necessary way to obtain refund of such taxes so paid and to execute any required documents necessary to obtain refunds or to assert such exemptions.

2.14 Award of Contract. The Award, if made, will be made within thirty (30) days after the opening of the Bids, unless otherwise noted in the Bid Documents, or agreed to by the Contractor.

2.15 Competency of Bidders. Each Bidder must be capable of performing the various items of Work or services or of furnishing the various items of materials, supplies, or equipment Bid upon. Each Bidder may be required to furnish a statement covering the experience on similar Work and such statements of the Bidder's financial resources as may be deemed necessary.

2.16 Responsible Bidder. Criteria utilized by the Commissioners' Court for determining the lowest responsible Bid includes, but is not limited to, whether the Bidder meets the County's published specifications, the Bidder's experience, skill, ability, business judgement, financial capacity, integrity, honesty; availability of the necessary facilities, equipment, materials and workers; previous performance, reputation, promptness, safety record and any other factors which could reasonably be asserted as being relevant to the Bidder’s successful performance. Adopted 3 June 1997 7

2.17 Disqualification for Collusion. Any or all Bids may be rejected if there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the Bidders, and no party in such collusion will be considered in future Bids for the same Work.

2.18 Material Guarantee. Before any Contract is Awarded, the Bidder may be required to furnish a complete statement of the names and addresses of suppliers or of the origin, composition and manufacture of any or all materials to be used in the performance of its Bid, together with samples which may be subjected to the tests provided for in the Specifications to determine their quality and fitness.

2.19 Return of Bid Checks. Bid Checks of the three lowest Bidders may be retained by the County Clerk until after the Award and approval of the Contract, Payment Bond and Performance Bond. These bid checks shall be returned by the County Clerk immediately after the final approval of the Contract, Performance Bond and Payment Bond, upon execution of the receipt required by the County Clerk. The Bid Checks for all other Bidders shall be returned by the County Clerk at any time within seventy-two (72) hours following the opening of Bids upon execution of the receipt required by the County Clerk.

If the Bidder to whom the Award is made fails to furnish a required Performance Bond or Payment Bond as herein provided, the County may rescind its award and acceptance of Contractor’s bid and make an Award to the next lowest responsible Bidder who shall fulfill every stipulation embraced herein as if the first Award were made to it. If this should occur, the Bidder to whom the Award was first made shall at the option of the County, be required to pay to the County the difference between his Bid and that of the next lowest responsible Bidder up to the maximum amount provided in the Bid security for the project. A corporation to which an Award is made will be required to furnish evidence of the authority of the officers executing the Contract.

5.01 Prosecution of Work. The Contractor shall notify the Architect at least twenty- four (24) hours before beginning Work. The Contractor shall start the Work at any part of the project designated by the Architect and shall prosecute the Work at as many different points as the Architect shall direct.

5.02 Construction Schedule. For all work of one million to five million dollars, the Contractor will submit a detailed construction schedule within seven days of notice to proceed. The schedule will be a bar type schedule and shall be of sufficient detail to show construction sequence, proposed start dates and estimated completion dates for major parts of the Work. Projects over five million dollars require the Contractor to provide a computer based critical path method schedule to the satisfaction of the Architect within thirty (30) days from notice to proceed.

5.03 Time of Completion. Time is of the essence of this Contract. If the Contractor fails to acceptably complete the Contractor's undertaking to the County within the time specified in its Bid and Contract, the County will be damaged. The exact amount of damage is, and will be, difficult of exact ascertainment. Such damages shall be at the rate, or the amount hereinafter fixed. The Contractor specially binds and obligates himself to pay such damages to the County on demand, or at the County's option the County may withhold the amount thereof from any sums due the Contractor under this Contract.

The County Engineer or the County Engineer's representative shall record on forms furnished by the County the time worked each calendar day, if any, by the Contractor. When requested by the County Engineer, such records or reports shall be signed by the Contractor or the Contractor's representative and the Contractor shall be entitled to a copy thereof. Failure of the Contractor to sign or to receive a copy shall not affect the result of the findings made in such reports. One copy of such report shall be filed daily with the County Auditor by the County Engineer. Work shall begin on the date fixed in the Purchase Order (Notice to Proceed). The Work will be completed and ready for Final Payment in accordance with paragraph 6.04 of the General Conditions within 250 calendar days after the date when the Contract Time commences to run. The County will suffer financial loss if the Work is not completed within the time specified herein, plus any extension thereof allowed in accordance with paragraph 5.06 of the General Conditions. The County and the Contractor recognize the delays, expense, and difficulties involved in proving, in a legal or arbitration proceeding, the actual loss suffered by the County if the work is not complete on time. Accordingly, instead of Adopted 3 June 1997 16 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc requiring any such proof, the County and the Contractor agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty) the Contractor shall pay the County Five Hundred Dollars and no/100 ($500.00) for each day that expires after the time specified herein for completion until the Work is complete. In case full payment for the Work shall have been made, the County shall have the right to recover from the Contractor and the Contractor's surety the amount of such liquidated damages as determined under this Contract.

COMPUTATION OF CONTRACT TIME - When any period of time is referred to in the Contract Documents by days, it will be computed to exclude the first and include the last day of such period. If the last date of any such period falls on a Saturday and Sunday or on a day made a legal holiday by Commissioners' Court, such day will be omitted from the computation.

The specified number of calendar days in which the Work is to be completed pursuant to the Contract are consecutive Gregorian calendar days inclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and all legal holidays. A calendar day of twenty-four (24) hours measured from midnight to the next midnight shall constitute a day.

Contract Time includes 25 calendar days to accommodate inclement weather. If the number of inclement weather days exceeds 110% of the above mentioned number of calendar days to accommodate inclement weather, the Contractor may make a written application to the Architect for, and receive, an extension of the Contract Time, for such number of days that the inclement weather days exceeds 100% of the above mentioned number of calendar days to accommodate inclement weather. After receipt of such application, the Architect shall make a determination as to which days, if any, during the Contract Time are inclement weather days, and the Architect's decision shall be final. The Contractor shall be entitled to an extension of the Contract Time equal to such excess as determined by the Architect. The term "inclement weather day", as used herein, means a day in which weather or wet soil does not permit the performance of the work for a continuous period of not less than seven hours between the hours of 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.

5.04 Abandonment of Work or Default of Contractor. If the Contractor fails to begin the work within the time specified; or fails to make deliveries or to provide sufficient workmen and equipment or sufficient materials to insure the prompt completion; or performs the Contract unsuitably; or neglects or refuses to remove materials or perform anew such Work as shall have been rejected as defective or unsuitable; or discontinues the prosecution of the Work; or becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt; or commits any act of bankruptcy or insolvency; or allows any final judgment to stand against the Contractor unsatisfied for a period of forty-eight (48) hours or longer; or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or fails to comply with any of the conditions of the Contract to such an extent that the Contract is forfeited or abandoned by the Contractor, or declared abandoned or suspended by the County; or if the Contractor for any other cause whatsoever shall not carry on the Work or perform the Contract in an acceptable manner, then and in that event, the Surety on the Contractor's Performance Bond shall have the right and privilege, within seven (7) calendar days after the date of notice of such action from the County, to assume control of the Contract and all Work thereunder and to sublet or complete the Work in strict conformity with the provisions of said Contract. Failure of the Surety to do so within said seven (7) calendar days will result in an immediate forfeiture of all right to thereafter assume control of the Contract and the Work thereunder, in which event the Adopted 3 June 1997 17 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc County shall have the right to take the prosecution of the Work out of the hands of the Contractor and to appropriate or use any or all materials and equipment on the ground as may be suitable and acceptable, and enter into an agreement for the completion of the Contract according to the terms and provisions thereof or use such other methods as in the Architect's opinion may be required or desirable for the completion of the Contract in an acceptable manner. All costs and charges incurred by the County, together with the costs of completing the Work, shall be deducted from any money due or which may become due said Contractor. In the event the cost and expense so incurred by the County is less than the sum which would have been payable under the Contract if it had been completed by said Contractor, then the said Contractor and/or Surety shall be entitled to receive the difference. In the event such cost shall exceed the amount which would have been payable under the Contract, then the Contractor and Surety shall be liable and shall pay to the County the amount of said excess.

5.05 Termination for Convenience of the County. The County may terminate this Agreement at any time by notice in writing to the Contractor. Upon receipt of such notice, the Contractor shall stop all work. Within ninety (90) days after receipt of notice of termination, the Contractor shall submit a statement, showing in detail the work performed under this Agreement to the date of termination. The County shall then pay the Contractor that proportion of the contract price which the work actually performed under this Agreement bears to the total work called for under this Agreement, less such payments as have been previously made. The County suggests that the Contractor have a similar termination provision in all its contracts inasmuch as the County will not compensate the Contractor for loss of profits or any other damage resulting from such termination.

5.06 Change Orders. The unit prices Bid shall govern for additions to, or deductions from, the Contract. If materials or labor are required for which no unit price is Bid, the price shall be that reached by agreement by the County and the Contractor after definite evidence is furnished by the Contractor to the County that the price is the current prevailing price in the area.

No compensation shall be allowed under a Change Order for any person not actively engaged in the performance of the specified Work.

No extra Work shall be paid for without an approved Change Order.

If additional time is required by reason of the Change, the number of days for completion provided for in this Contract shall be adjusted at the time the Change Order is entered into, and if no adjustment is made on the Change Order form, any additional time is to be considered waived by the Contractor.

Any extension of time given shall not release the Contractor or the Surety from their Performance and Payment Bonds or from all obligations hereunder, which shall remain in full force until the discharge of the Contract.

All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Agreement.

5.07 Subcontracting. Within ten days after Contract award, the Contractor is required to furnish a list of Subcontractors proposed for principal portions of the Work. Subcontractors will not be replaced by the Contractor without notice to the County. Adopted 3 June 1997 18

Nothing contained in the Contract Documents will create any contractual relation between the County or the Architect and any Subcontractor.

Neither the County nor the Architect has any obligation to pay, or see to the payment of, any monies to any Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law.

No Subcontractor shall, under any circumstances, relieve the Contractor of the Contractor's liabilities and obligations under this Contract, should such Subcontractor fail to perform the work undertaken by it in a satisfactory manner.

5.08 Character of Workmen and Equipment.

The Contractor shall indemnify and save the County harmless from all claims growing out of the lawful demands of Subcontractors, laborers, workmen, mechanics, materialmen and furnishers of machinery and parts thereof, equipment, power tools and all supplies, including commissary, incurred in the furtherance of the performance of the Contract. When so desired by the County, the Contractor shall furnish satisfactory evidence that all obligations of the nature herein above designated have been paid, discharged or waived.

5.10 Authority of Architect. The Work shall be done under the direct observation of the Architect and to the Architect's satisfaction. The Architect shall decide any and all questions which may arise as to the quality or acceptability of materials furnished, work performed, and rate of progress of the Work, and shall decide all questions which may arise as to the interpretation of the Drawings and Specifications and all questions as to the acceptable fulfillment of the Contract on the part of the Contractor. The Architect’s decisions under this provision shall be final and binding on both parties hereto.

5.11 Cooperation of Contractor. The Contractor shall give the Work constant attention to facilitate the progress thereof and shall cooperate with the Architect in every way possible. The Contractor shall have at all times, regardless of how much of the Work may be sublet, a competent and reliable English-speaking superintendent on the job site authorized to receive orders and to act for the Contractor.

If the Contractor uses any design, material, or process covered by letters, patent or copyright, the Contractor shall provide for such use with the patentee or owner. The Contractor shall indemnify and save harmless the County from any and all claims for infringement.

5.17 Inspection. Inspectors shall be authorized to inspect all work in progress, all Work completed and all materials furnished. The Inspector shall not be authorized to revoke, alter, enlarge, relax or release any requirements of these Specifications. The Contractor shall also furnish the Architect a statement from the Subcontractor that the Subcontractor understands the Drawings and Specifications and is properly qualified to perform such Work. No Subcontract will in any way affect the terms of the Contract between the County and the Contractor or relieve the Contractor of any of its obligations thereunder.

The Inspector shall at all times have access to all parts of the shop where material under this Contract is being manufactured. Material that does not conform to the Specifications, accepted through oversight or otherwise, may be rejected at any stage of the Work. The Contractor shall remove and rebuild at the Contractor's own expense any part of the project that has been improperly executed, even if it has been included in the monthly estimates. If the Contractor refuses or neglects to correct any defective work, it may be corrected by the County, at the Contractor's expense.

Whenever the Contractor is permitted or directed to do night work, or to vary the period during which the Work is carried on each day, the Contractor shall give the Architect due notice so that inspections may be performed. Such Work shall be done without extra compensation. The Contractor will furnish the Architect a schedule for this night work.

Should the Architect require it, the Contractor shall at any time during the construction of Work, make openings for inspection through any part of said Work to such extent as the Architect may direct, and the Contractor shall make the same good again to the satisfaction of the Architect. Should the Work, in the opinion of the Architect, be found to be faulty in any respect, all such faulty Work shall be replaced by the Contractor.

5.18 Material Testing. The County will assign a testing laboratory and will pay for testing and inspection directly, unless otherwise noted in the Specifications. Final testing and inspection may be made after the delivery of materials to the project site. Structural materials may be tested and inspected at points of origin. Should materials or construction not be in accordance with the Specifications when first tested, additional testing shall be required.

If the retest does not meet specifications and fails, the cost of the retest and all subsequent retests shall be Adopted 3 June 1997 21 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc at the Contractor's expense. Testing and retesting may be made at any time during the progress of the Work. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to notify the Architect in advance as to the time of individual concrete placements. This is necessary in order to schedule the laboratory without unduly delaying construction.

5.19 Contractor's Responsibility for Work. Until the acceptance of the Work by the Architect as evidenced in writing, the Work shall be under the charge and care of the Contractor. The Contractor shall take every necessary precaution against injury or damage to any part thereof by the action of the elements or from any cause, whether arising from the execution or non-execution of the Work. The Contractor shall rebuild, repair, restore and make good at the Contractor's own expense all injuries or damages to any portion of the Work before its completion and acceptance. The Contractor shall keep the premises free from accumulation of waste materials, rubbish, and other debris resulting from the Work. At the completion of the Work, the Contractor shall leave the site clean and ready for its use by the County.

5.20 Preservation and Restoration of Property. The Contractor shall be responsible for the preservation of the County's property adjacent to the project. When or where any direct or indirect damage is done to the County's, or adjacent, property by or on account of any act, omission, neglect or misconduct in the performance of the Work or in consequence of the non-performance thereof on the part of the Contractor, the Contractor shall restore, at the Contractor's own expense, such property to a condition equal to that existing before such damage was done by repairing, rebuilding or otherwise restoring same, or the Contractor will make good such damage in an acceptable manner.

5.21 Emergencies. In emergencies affecting the safety or protection of persons, or the Work, or Property at the site, or adjacent thereto, the Contractor, without special instruction or authorization from the County or the Architect, is obligated to act to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. The Contractor shall give the Architect prompt written notice if the Contractor believes that any significant changes in the Work or variations from the Contract Document have been caused thereby.

5.22 Public Utility Obstruction. When public utilities, such as poles, pipes, conduits, etc. must either be removed or adjusted to a new location on the site to make way for new construction, the Contractor shall cooperate with the public utility making the changes and shall use every precaution to protect their property.

5.23 Guarantee. The Contractor agrees to replace, without cost to the County, any Work found to be improper or defective and to make good all damage or other Work caused by such replacement. The guarantee period for the Work is one year from substantial completion of the project. Additional guarantees for specific items may also be required by the Specifications. The guarantees must be presented to, and approved by, the Architect before project acceptance and Final Payment is made.

The Contractor will supply the County with copies of all guarantees and warranties, which have been made to the Contractor by suppliers or Subcontractors, with an assignment of these guarantees and warranties to the County. Assignments will not relieve the Contractor of the Contractor's responsibility in the case of a supplier's or Subcontractor's failure to fulfill guarantee or warranty provisions.

p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc guarantees and warranties in the Contractor's name, and the Contractor shall pass on to the County any benefits derived therein.

Neither final completion of the project, nor any provision in the Contract Documents relieves the Contractor of responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship during guarantee periods.

5.24 Substantial Completion. When the Contractor considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, the Contractor shall notify the County in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for items specifically listed as incomplete) and request that the Architect issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Within a reasonable time thereafter, the Parties to the Contract shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If the Architect does not consider the Work substantially complete, he will notify the Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefore. If the Architect considers the Work substantially complete, he will prepare a certificate of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the certificate, a punch list of items to be completed or corrected before Final Payment. The Substantial Completion certificate will allow a reasonable period for the Contractor to complete the punch list items. Upon satisfactory completion of all punch list items the Contractor may apply for Final Payment.

5.25 Partial Utilization. Acceptance and use by the County, at the County's option, of any substantially completed part of the Work which (a) has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or (b) the County and the Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by the County for its intended purpose without significant interference with the Contractor's performance of the remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work.

SECTION 6. PAYMENT

6.01 Schedule of Values. Before the first Partial Payment the Contractor shall submit to the Architect a Schedule of Values allocated to the various portions of the Work, prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Architect may require. The schedule must be prepared in such a manner that each major item of Work and each subcontracted item of Work is shown as a single line item. This schedule, unless objected to by the Architect, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's payments.

6.02 Partial Payments. At the earliest possible date after the first day of each calendar month, the Architect will make a current estimate in writing of the materials in-place complete, and the amount of Work performed through the last day of the preceding calendar month, and the value thereof based on the Contract price, the value being hereinafter called the "Current Value of the Work". The Architect shall also, unless otherwise provided in the contract documents, determine the reasonable invoice cost of all materials and equipment for subsequent incorporation into the Work that have been delivered and suitably stored at the site (or, with advance approval by the Architect, stored off-site at an agreed location) but which remain unincorporated into the Work, such reasonable cost being hereinafter called the "Current Value of Stored Materials and Equipment". The Architect shall determine the number of elapsed Adopted 3 June 1997 23 p:\16-00005-00 bth garage security improvements study\f-specifications\f1-current\f1.4-architectural\2017 01 20_75% cd's\general condition bldg (24).doc calendar days during the performance of the Work, and the amount of any accrued liquidated damages. Within thirty (30) days after audit and approval of the Architect's determinations for each month by the County Auditor, the County shall pay to the Contractor an amount equal to 95% of both the approved Current Value of the Work and the approved Current Value of Stored Materials and Equipment, less the amount of all prior payments hereunder to the Contractor and less the amount of any accrued liquidated damages. Stored materials and equipment for which reimbursement has been received by the Contractor may not be removed from its place of storage without the Architect's permission except for incorporation into the Work. The value of materials for which payment has been made while stored shall not be included in the Current Value of the Work. The 5% withheld from partial payments will be payable to the Contractor, subject to any adjustments made in accordance with this Agreement, at the time of final payment.

6.03 Adjusting Payment. If Change Orders diminish the amount of Work, any resulting decrease in the amount to be paid the Contractor pursuant to the Contract will not constitute the basis for a claim. If Change Orders increase the amount of Work, and the Work can be classified under Contract Documents, the Contract sum will be increased according to the Work actually done at established unit prices. For unit price items which increase or decrease as discussed in estimated quantities, the amount can be adjusted.

6.04 Acceptance and Final Payment. The Architect shall, as soon as practicable after the completion of this Contract, make a Final Estimate of the amount due the Contractor under the provisions of the Contract and submit same to the Commissioners' Court. Within thirty (30) days after approval by the Commissioners' Court and the County Auditor, the County shall pay the Contractor the amount of the estimate or Final Estimate after deducting therefrom all previous payments and all amounts to be retained under the provisions of this Contract. All prior Partial Estimates and Payments shall be subject to correction in the Final Estimate and Payment. No estimate or payment except the Final Payment shall be evidence of performance by the Contractor. No payment by the County shall be construed to be an acceptance of any defective Work or improper materials, or a release from any claim for damages. The payment of the final amount due under the Contract, and the adjustment and payment of the bill rendered for any Work done in accordance with any alterations of the Contract by a Change Order, shall release the County and the Architect from any and all claims or liability on account of Work performed under the Contract or alterations thereof. The Contractor will examine the Final Estimate and if correct will certify under oath to the payment by the Contractor of all claims against the Contractor for labor, materials, and supplies furnished the Contractor by all persons and firms in the performance of the Contract.

6.05 Auditor's Certification of Funds. The laws governing the awarding of Contracts by the County require the approval of the County Auditor and the County Auditor certify that funds are, or will be, available for the payment of the obligations created thereunder before such Contracts become effective. Despite any provisions in the Specifications, the Drawings or the Contract to the contrary, no change or addition of any character in the Specifications, the Drawings or the Contract which will increase the obligations of the County, or the amount to be paid by the County shall ever be binding on the County unless and until such changes or additions have been submitted to the County Auditor and the County Auditor certifies that funds are, or will be, available for the payment of such obligation.

SUMMARY OF WORK 01 00 00-4 Issue for Construction – 05/12/2017 JOHNSTON BEN TAUB HOSPITAL Project No. 16-00005-01 GARAGE SECURITY IMPROVEMENTS Ben Taub Hospital Houston, Texas

B. Field Modifications:

No person shall have the authority to verbally alter the requirements of the contract documents. No field modifications will be binding on Harris Health System unless confirmed in writing from the Architect, or documented, signed and dated by the Architect on the set of "Record Drawings" in the field office.

C. Changes in Contract:

1. All proposed costs for a change in contract must be supported by itemized accounting of material, equipment and labor in sufficient detail to allow value analysis by the Architect using current cost estimating guides prevalent in the area. Harris Health System shall have up to fourteen (14) calendar days from date of receipt of written proposal for review and approval by the Architect.

2. For general construction work, the Contractor will be allowed the actual cost for materials from supply houses, the total amount of wages paid for labor, and the total cost of Federal Old Age Benefits (Social Security Tax) and of Worker's Compensation and Public Liability Insurance, plus cost of Bond if the size of the change warrants revision of the bonds. To the total of the above costs, the Contractor will be allowed to add a percentage as noted below to cover overhead and profit combined. Overhead shall be considered to include insurance other than mentioned herein, field and office supervisors, Project Managers and assistants, clerical work, use of small hand tools, incidental job burdens (i.e. telephone, electricity, dumpster costs) and general home office expense, and no separate allowance will be made therefor. Allowable percentages for overhead and profit on changes shall not exceed 15%. In no way shall the cumulative cost burden to Harris Health System for overhead and profit exceed 15% including the General Contractor and his Subcontractors combined.

3. On changes involving both additions and deletions, percentages for overhead and profit will be allowed only on the net addition.

D. Separate Construction by Harris Health System :

Harris Health System may administer separate construction contract(s) on this project site simultaneously. Harris Health System may coordinate the separate contracts and the Contractor shall extend full cooperation towards successful execution of all separate contracts.

E. Preservation and Restoration of Property:

Harris Health System reserves the right to repair damages to existing property made necessary through an act, omission or misconduct, or in consequence of the non-performance of the Work on the part of the Contractor, his employees or subcontractors, if the Contractor fails to respond to written demand for the repair within 24 hours of such notification.

SUMMARY OF WORK 01 00 00-5 Issue for Construction – 05/12/2017 JOHNSTON BEN TAUB HOSPITAL Project No. 16-00005-01 GARAGE SECURITY IMPROVEMENTS Ben Taub Hospital Houston, Texas

F. Commissioning:

Commissioning of the facility shall occur prior to substantial completion. The commissioning process shall include representatives from the Design Team, Contract Administration and County Agencies responsible for the operation and maintenance of the facility.

G. Substantial Completion:

Substantial Completion occurs when the project can be occupied and used for its intended purpose. Substantial completion occurs when all lumbing systems and fixtures are operational and the building or portion of the building can be occupied for its intended purpose. Factors such as the lack of security features, life safety devices, fire and smoke alarm testing, and too many other aspects too numerous to list may mitigate against a project being substantially complete for the purpose of stopping the contract time. The Architect shall issue a substantial completion certificate setting forth a time limit for remedying the punch list items, as determined by the Architect. The substantial completion certificate effectively stops the contract time. Failure of the Contractor to complete punch list items within the time limit shall result in the assessment of liquidated damages being assessed against the contract in an amount equal to one half of the liquidated damages applicable to delays prior to substantial completion. Warranty periods and dates for the owner to assume responsibility for utilities, shall be the date of substantial completion.
