2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 3
Instructions to Bidders
Each Bid Proposal submitted to the City of Cupertino (“City”) for its 2019 CONTRACTUAL
STREET SWEEPING SERVICES (“Project”), Project No. 2019-101, must be submitted in
accordance with the following instructions and requirements:
1. Bid Submission.
1.1 General. The Contract for the Project will be awarded, if at all, to the lowest
responsible bidder, as determined by City. Each Bid Proposal must be signed, sealed and
submitted to City, using the form provided in the Contract Documents, by or before the date
and time set forth in Section 1 of the Notice Inviting Bids, or as amended by subsequent
addendum. Faxed or emailed Bid Proposals will not be accepted, unless otherwise
specified. Late submissions will be returned unopened. City reserves the right to postpone
the date or time for receiving or opening bids. Each bidder is solely responsible for all of its
costs to prepare and submit its bid and by submitting a bid waives any right to recover
those costs from City. The bid price(s) must include all costs to perform the Work as
specified, including all labor, material, supplies, and equipment and all other direct or
indirect costs such as applicable taxes, insurance and overhead.
1.2 Bid Envelope. The envelope containing the sealed Bid Proposal and all required
forms and attachments must be clearly labeled and addressed as follows:
BID PROPOSAL:
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
Project No. 2019-101
City Clerk’s Office
Cupertino City Hall
10300 Torre Avenue
Cupertino, CA 95014
Attn: Carl Valdez
The envelope must also be clearly labeled, as follows, with the bidder’s name, address, for
bidding on public works contracts (Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1):
[Contractor company name]
[street address]
[city, state, zip code]
1.3 DIR Registration. This section is not applicable due to the Contractor not
being required to pay prevailing wages, therefor no DIR registration is required for
this project. City will not accept a Bid Proposal from or enter into the Contract with a
bidder without proof that the bidder is registered with the DIR to perform public work under
Labor Code section 1725.5, subject to limited legal exceptions. If City is unable to confirm
that the bidder’s DIR registration is current at the time of bidding, City must disqualify the
bidder and return its bid. (Labor Code section 1725.5.)
2. Bid Proposal Form and Enclosures. Each Bid Proposal must be completed in ink using
the Bid Proposal form included with the Contract Documents. The Bid Proposal form must
be fully completed without interlineations, alterations, or erasures. Any necessary
corrections must be clear and legible, and must be initialed by the bidder’s authorized
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 4
representative. A Bid Proposal submitted with exceptions or terms such as “negotiable,”
“will negotiate,” or similar, will be considered nonresponsive. Each Bid Proposal must be
accompanied by bid security, as set forth in Section 4 below, and by a completed Bid
Schedule, Subcontractor List, and Non-Collusion Declaration using the forms included with
the Project manual as directed.
3. Authorization and Execution. Each Bid Proposal must be signed by the bidder’s
authorized representative. A Bid Proposal submitted by a partnership must be signed in
the partnership name by a general partner with authority to bind the partnership. A Bid
Proposal submitted by a corporation must be signed with the legal name of the corporation,
followed by the signature and title of two officers of the corporation with full authority to bind
the corporation to the terms of the Bid Proposal, under California Corporation Code section
313.
4. Bid Security. Each Bid Proposal must be accompanied by bid security of ten percent of
the maximum bid amount, in the form of a cashier’s check or certified check, made payable
to the City, or bid bond using the form included in the Contract Documents and executed by
a surety licensed to do business in the State of California. The bid security must guarantee
that, within ten days after issuance of the Notice of Award, the bidder will: execute and
submit the enclosed Contract for the bid price; submit a performance bond in the penal sum
of four months total contract value of Contractor's Bid as accepted, to guarantee faithful
performance of the Work; and submit the insurance certificates and endorsements and any
other submittals, if any, required by the Contract Documents or the Notice of Award.
5. Bid Schedule. Each bidder must complete the Bid Schedule form with unit prices as
indicated, and submit the completed Bid Schedule with its Bid Proposal.
5.1 Incorrect Totals. In the event a computational error for any bid item (base bid or
alternate) results in an incorrect extended total for that item, the submitted base bid or bid
alternate total will be adjusted to reflect the corrected amount (as the product of the
estimated quantity and the unit cost), unless the cumulative amount of correction changes
the total amount of the base bid or bid alternate. In the event of a discrepancy between the
actual total of the itemized or unit prices shown on the Bid Schedule for the base bid, and
the amount entered as the base bid on the Bid Proposal form, the actual total of the
itemized or unit prices shown on the Bid Schedule for the base bid will be deemed the base
bid price. Likewise, in the event of a discrepancy between the actual total of the itemized or
unit prices shown on the Bid Schedule for any bid alternate, and the amount entered for the
alternate on the Bid Proposal form, the actual total of the itemized prices shown on the Bid
Schedule for that alternate will be deemed the alternate price. Nothing in this provision is
intended to prevent a bidder from requesting to withdraw its bid for material error under
Public Contract Code section 5100 et seq.
5.2 Estimated Quantities. The quantities shown on the Bid Schedule are estimated and
the actual quantities required to perform the Work may be greater or less than the
estimated amount. The Contract Price will be adjusted to reflect the actual quantities
required for the Work based on the itemized or unit prices provided in the Bid Schedule,
with no allowance for anticipated profit for quantities that are deleted or decreased, and no
increase in the unit price.
6. Subcontractor Work Limits. The prime contractor must perform at least the percentage
of the Work on the Project specified in the Notice Inviting Bids, which is calculated as a
percentage of the base bid price, with its own forces, except for any Work identified as
“Specialty Work” in the Bid Schedule. The total bid amount for any such Specialty Work, as
shown on the Bid Schedule, may be deducted from the base bid price before computing the
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 5
percentage the contractor must self-performance. The remaining Work may be performed
by qualified Subcontractor(s).
7. Bidder’s Questionnaire. A completed, signed Bidder’s Questionnaire using the form
provided with the Contract Documents and including all required attachments m ust be
submitted within 2 working days following a request by City. A bid submitted by a bidder
that does not fully comply with this requirement may be rejected as nonresponsive. A
bidder who submits a Bidder’s Questionnaire which is subsequently determined to contain
false or misleading information, or material omissions, may be disqualified as non-
responsible.
8. Pre-Bid Investigation
8.1 General. Each bidder is solely responsible at its sole expense for diligent and
thorough review of the Contract Documents and documents provided “For Reference Only,”
which may include geotechnical reports, as-built or record drawings, utility diagrams, or
other such information. Each bidder is also responsible for appropriate examination of the
Project site, and reasonable and prudent inquiry concerning known and potential site and
area conditions prior to submitting a Bid Proposal. Each bidder is responsible for
knowledge of conditions and requirements which reasonable review and investigation
would have disclosed. However, except for any areas that are open to the public at large,
bidders may not enter City’s property or the Project site without prior written authorization
from City, and subject to the site investigation requirements set forth below. Bidders are
responsible for reporting any errors or omissions in the Contract Documents to City prior to
submitting a Bid Proposal, subject to the limitations of Public Contract Code section 1104.
Notification of any such error, omissions, inconsistencies, or conflicts must be submitted in
writing to the City no later than five Working Days before the schedule bid opening. City
expressly disclaims responsibility for assumptions a bidder might draw from the presence
or absence of information provided by City.
8.2 Project Site. Soil and soil test data, water table elevations, and soil analyses for test
holes, if any, may be available for inspection at the City’s offices or as otherwise specified
in the Contract Documents. Any subsurface exploration at the Project site must be done at
the bidder’s expense, but only with prior written authorization from City, and as further
specified below in subsection 8.4. All soil data and analyses available for inspection or
provided in the Contract Documents or in documents provided “For Reference Only,” apply
only to the test hole locations. Any water table elevation indicated by a soil test report
existed on the date the test hole was drilled. The bidder is responsible for determining and
allowing for any differing soil or water table conditions during construction. Because
groundwater levels may fluctuate, difference(s) in elevation between ground water shown in
soil boring logs and ground water actually encountered during Project construction will not
be considered changed Project site conditions. Actual locations and depths must be
determined by bidder’s field investigation. The bidder may request access to underlying or
background information on the Project site in City’s possession that is necessary for the
bidder to form its own conclusions, including, if available, record drawings or other
documents indicating the location of subsurface lines, utilities, or other structures. City
expressly disclaims responsibility for assumptions a bidder might draw from the presence
or absence of information provided by City. City does not warrant the accuracy of any
representation of visible, above-ground conditions that may be independently investigated
and verified by the bidder. The City disclaims responsibility for the accuracy of information
regarding subsurface conditions that has been provided to City by others, such as uti lity
owners.

and requirements of any affected utility companies or agencies (collectively, “utility
owners”). The successful bidder may be required by the third party utility owners to provide
detailed plans prepared by a California registered civil engineer showing the necessary

to contact the affected third party utility owners about their requirements before submitting

bidder must ensure that any such site investigation is conducted in a manner to avoid
endangering persons or damaging property, and must promptly and fully restore the site to
its pre-investigation condition, including filling in holes and cleaning up. City reserves the
right to impose additional conditions to site access or investigation in order to protect
persons or property, including, but not limited to limitations on machinery used during the
site investigation.
9. Bidders Interested in More Than One Bid. No person, firm, or corporation may submit or
be a party to more than one Bid Proposal unless alternate bids are specifically called for.
However, a person, firm, or corporation that has submitted a subcontract proposal or quote
to a bidder may submit subcontract proposals or quotes to other bidders.

has received and reviewed all addenda prior to submitting its bid. All bidders, including
bidders on the plan holder’s list, should regularly check City’s website for any addenda or
updates on the Project.

or service by specific brand or trade name, followed by the words “or equal,” is intended
only to indicate quality and type of item desired, and bidders may request use of any equal
material, product, thing, or service. A pre-bid request for substitution must be submitted no

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 7
provisions do not apply to materials, products, things, or services that may lawfully be
designated by a specific brand or trade name under Public Contract Code section 3400(c).
13. Withdrawal of Bid Proposals. A Bid Proposal may not be withdrawn for a period of 90

14.1 Eligibility. Only a bidder who has actually submitted a responsive Bid Proposal, as
determined by City, is eligible to submit a bid protest against another bidder.
Subcontractors are not eligible to submit bid protests. A bidder may not rely on the bid
protest submitted by another bidder, but must timely pursue its own protest. If required by
City, the protesting bidder must submit a non-refundable fee in the amount specified by
City, based upon City’s reasonable costs to administer the bid protest. Any such fee must
be submitted to City no later than the Bid Protest Deadline, unless otherwise specified. For
purposes of this Section, a “Working Day” means a day that City is open for normal
business, and excludes weekends and holidays observed by City. Pursuant to Public
Contract Code section 4104, inadvertent omission of a Subcontractor’s DIR registration
number on the Subcontractor List form is not grounds for a bid protest provided it is
corrected within 24 hours of the bid opening or as otherwise provided under Labor Code
1771.1(b).
14.2 Protest Contents. The bid protest must contain a complete statement of the basis
for the protest and must include all supporting documentation. Material submitted after the
Bid Protest Deadline will not be considered. The protest must refer to the specific portion or
portions of the Contract Documents upon which the protest is based. The protest must
include the name, address, email address, and telephone number of the protesting bidder
and any person submitting the protest on behalf of or as an authorized representative of the
protesting bidder.
14.3 Copy to Protested Bidder. Upon submission of its bid protest to City, the protesting
bidder must also concurrently transmit the protest and all supporting documents to the
protested bidder, and to any other bidder who has a reasonable prospect of receiving an
award depending upon the outcome of the protest, by email or hand delivery to ensure
delivery before the Bid Protest Deadline.
14.4 Response to Protest. The protested bidder may submit a written response to the
protest, provided the response is received by City before 5:00 p.m., within two Working
Days after the Bid Protest Deadline or after actual receipt of the bid protest, whichever is
sooner (the “Response Deadline”). The response must attach all supporting
documentation. Material submitted after the Response Deadline will not be considered. The
response must include the name, address, email address, and telephone number of the
person responding on behalf of or representing the protested bidder if different from the
protested bidder.
14.5 Copy to Protesting Bidder. Upon submission of its response to the bid protest to
the City, the protested bidder must also concurrently transmit by email or hand delivery, by
or before the Response Deadline, a copy of its response and all supporting documents to
the protesting bidder and to any other bidder who has a reasonable prospect of receiving
an award depending upon the outcome of the protest.

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 8
14.6 Exclusive Remedy. The procedure and time limits set forth in this section are
mandatory and are the bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a bid protest. A
bidder’s failure to comply with these procedures will constitute a waiver of any right to
further pursue a bid protest, including filing a Government Code Claim or initiation of legal
proceedings.
14.7 Right to Award. City reserves the right, acting in its sole discretion, to reject any bid
protest that it determines lacks merit, to award the Contract to the bidder it has determined
to be the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid, and to issue a Notice to
Proceed with the W ork notwithstanding any pending or continuing challenge to its
determination.
15. Reservation of Rights. To the full extent permitted by law, City reserves the unfettered
right, acting in its sole discretion, to waive or to decline to waive any immaterial bid
irregularities; to accept or reject any or all bids; to cancel or reschedule the bid; to postpone
or abandon the Project entirely; or to perform all or part of the Work with its own forces. The
Contract will be awarded, if at all, within 90 days after opening of bids or as otherwise
specified in the Special Conditions, to the responsible bidder that submitted the lowest
responsive bid. Any planned start date for the Project, given in the Notice Inviting Bids is
provided as informative of City’s expectations at the time the Notice Inviting Bids was first
issued. City is not bound to issue a Notice to Proceed by or before such planned start date,
and it reserves the right to issue the Notice to Proceed when the City determines, in its sole
discretion, the appropriate time for commencing the Work. The City expressly disclaims
responsibility for any assumptions a bidder might draw from the presence or absence if
information provided by the City in any form. Each bidder is solely responsible for its costs
to prepare and submit a bid, including site investigation costs.
16. Bonds. The successful bidder is required to submit the performance bond as specified in
the Contract Documents using the bond form included in the Contract Documents, within
ten days following City’s issuance of the Notice of Award.
17. License(s). Part of this section is not applicable due to the Contractor not being
required to have a contractor’s state license, the Contractor is required to have a
City Business License as listed. The successful bidder and its Subcontractor(s) must
possess the California contractor’s license(s) in the classification(s) required by law to
perform the Work and must also obtain a City Business License before beginning Work on
the Project, unless its sole business contact within the City is the sale of goods or services
to the City itself.
18. Ineligible Subcontractor. Any Subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public
works project under Labor Code sections 1777.1 or 1777.7 is prohibited from performing
work on the Project.
19. Safety Orders. If the Project includes construction of a pipeline, sewer, sewage disposal
system, boring and jacking pits, or similar trenches or open excavations, which are five feet
or deeper, each bid must include a bid item for adequate sheeting, shoring, and bracing, or
equivalent method, for the protection of life or limb, which comply with safety orders as
required by Labor Code section 6707.

unless otherwise specified. Progress meeting agenda items may include review
of past meeting minutes, review of Work in progress since previous progress

worker safety, and other such matters pertaining to the progress of the Work.
(G) Responsible Party. Contractor is solely responsible to City for the acts or
omissions of any Subcontractors, or any other party or parties performing portions of the
Work or providing equipment, materials or services for or on behalf of Contractor or the
Subcontractors. Upon City’s written request, Contractor must promptly and permanently
remove from the Project, at no cost to City, any employee or Subcontractor or employee
of a Subcontractor who the Engineer has determined to be incompetent, intemperate or
disorderly, or who has failed or refused to perform the Work as required under the
Contract Documents.
(H) Correction of Defects. Contractor must promptly correct, at Contractor’s sole
expense, any Work that is determined by City to be deficient or defective in any way,
including workmanship, materials, parts or equipment. Workmanship, materials or
equipment that do not conform to the requirements under the Plans, Specifications and
every other Contract Document, as determined by City, will be considered defective and
subject to rejection. Contractor must also promptly correct, at Contractor’s sole expense,
any Work performed beyond the lines and grades shown on the Plans or established by
City, and any Extra Work performed without City’s prior written approval. If Contractor
fails to correct or to take reasonable steps toward correcting defective Work within five
days following notice from City, or within the time specified in City’s notice to correct, City
may elect to have the defective Work corrected by its own forces or by a third party, in
which case the cost of correction will be deducted from the Contract Price. If City elects
to correct defective Work due to Contractor’s failure or refusal to do so, City or its agents
will have the right to take possession of and use any equipment, supplies, or materials
available at the Project site or any Worksite on City property, in order to effectuate the
correction, at no extra cost to City. Contractor’s warranty obligations under Section 11.2,
Warranty, will not be waived nor limited by City’s actions to correct defective Work under
these circumstances. Alternatively, City may elect to retain defective Work, and deduct
the difference in value, as determined by the Engineer, from payments otherwise due to
Contractor. This paragraph applies to any defective Work performed by Contractor during
the one-year warranty period under Section 11.2.
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES

offs, and price quotes or bids.
(1) Contractor’s cost records must include all supporting documentation,
including original receipts, invoices, and payroll records, evidencing its direct
costs to perform the Work, including, but not limited to, costs for labor, materials
and equipment. Each cost record should include, at a minimum, a description of
the expenditure with references to the applicable requirements of the Contract
Documents, the amount actually paid, the date of payment, and whether the
expenditure is part of the original Contract Price, related to an executed Change
Order, or otherwise categorized by Contractor as Extra W ork. Contractor’s failure
to comply with this provision as to any claimed cost operates as a waiver of any
rights to recover the claimed cost.
(2) Contractor must continue to maintain its Project-related records in an
organized manner for a period of five years after City’s acceptance of the Project
or following Contract termination, whichever occurs first. Subject to prior notice
to Contractor, City is entitled to inspect or audit any of Contractor’s Project
records relating to the Project or to investigate Contractor’s plant or equipment
during Contractor’s normal business hours. The record-keeping requirements set
forth in this subsection 2.2(I) will survive expiration or termination of the Contract.
(J) Copies of Contract Documents. Contractor and its Subcontractors must keep
copies, at the Project site, of all Work-related documents, including the Contract,
permit(s), Plans, Specifications, Addenda, Contract amendments, Change Orders, RFIs
and RFI responses, Shop Drawings, as-built drawings, schedules, daily reports, testing
and inspection reports or results, and any related written interpretations. These
documents must be available to City for reference at all times during construction of the
Project.
(K) Construction Records. Contractor will maintain up-to-date, thorough, legible,
and dated daily job reports, which document all significant activity on the Project for
each day that Work is performed on the Project. The daily report for each day must
include the number of workers at the Project site; primary Work activities; major
deliveries; problems encountered, including injuries, if any; weather and site conditions;
and delays, if any. Contractor will take date and time-stamped photographs to document
general progress of the Project, including site conditions prior to construction activities,
before and after photographs at offset trench laterals, existing improvements and
utilities, damage and restoration. Contractor will maintain copies of all subcontracts,
Project-related correspondence with subcontractors, and records of meetings with
Subcontractors. Upon request by the City, Contractor will permit review of and/or
provide copies of any of these construction records.
2.3 Subcontractors.
(A) General. All Work which is not performed by Contractor with its own forces must
be performed by Subcontractors. City reserves the right to approve or reject any and all
Subcontractors proposed to perform the Work, for reasons including the subcontractor’s
poor reputation, lack of relevant experience, financial instability, and lack of technical
ability or adequate trained workforce
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 35
(B) Contractual Obligations. Contractor must require each Subcontractor to
comply with the provisions of the Contract Documents as they apply to the
Subcontractor’s portion(s) of the Work, including the generally applicable terms of the
Contract Documents, and to likewise bind their subcontractors. Contractor will provide
that the rights that each Subcontractor may have against any manufacturer or supplier for
breach of warranty or guarantee relating to items provided by the Subcontractor for the
Project, will be assigned to City.. Nothing in these Contract Documents creates a
contractual relationship between a Subcontractor and City, but City is deemed to be a
third-party beneficiary of the contract between Contractor and each Subcontractor.
(C) Termination. If the Contract is terminated, each Subcontractor’s agreement
must be assigned by Contractor to City, subject to the prior rights of any surety, but only if
and to the extent that City accepts, in writing the assignment by written notification, and
assumes all rights and obligations of Contractor pursuant to each such subcontract
agreement.
(D) Substitution of Subcontractor. If Contractor requests substitution of a listed
Subcontractor under Public Contract Code section 4107, Contractor is solely responsible
for all costs City incurs in responding to the request, including legal fees and costs to
conduct a hearing, and any increased subcontract cost to perform the Work that was to
be performed by the listed Subcontractor.
2.4 Coordination of Work.
(A) Concurrent Work. City reserves the right to perform, have performed, or permit
performance of other work on or adjacent to the Project site while the Work is being
performed for the City. Contractor is responsible for coordinating its Work with other
work being performed on or adjacent to the Project site, including by any utility
companies or agencies, and must avoid hindering, delaying, or interfering with the work
of other contractors, individuals, or entities, and must ensure safe and reasonable site
access and use as required or authorized by City. To the full extent permitted by law,
Contractor must hold harmless and indemnify City against any and all claims arising from
or related to Contractor’s avoidable, negligent, or willful hindrance of, delay to, or
interference with the work of any utility company or agency or another contractor or
subcontractor.
(B) Coordination. If Contractor’s Work will connect or interface with work performed
by others, Contractor is responsible for independently measuring and visually inspecting
such work to ensure a correct connection and interface. Contractor is responsible for any
failure by Contractor or its Subcontractors to confirm measurements before proceeding
with connecting Work. Before proceeding with any portion of the Work affected by the
construction or operations of others, Contractor must give the Project Manager prompt
written notification of any defects Contractor discovers which will prevent the proper
execution of the Work. Failure to give notice of any known or reasonably discoverable
defects will be deemed acknowledgement by Contractor that the work of others is not
defective and will not prevent the proper execution of the Work. Contractor must also
promptly notify City if work performed by others, including work or activities performed by
City’s own forces, is operating to hinder, delay, or interfere with Contractor’s timely
performance of the Work . City reserves the right to backcharge Contractor for any
additional costs incurred due to Contractor’s failure to comply with the requirements in
this Section 2.4.
2.5 Submittals. Unless otherwise specified, Contractor must submit to the Engineer for
review and acceptance of all schedules, Shop Drawings, samples, product data and
similar submittals required by the Contract Documents, or upon request by the Engineer.
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 36
Unless otherwise specified, all submittals, including Requests for Information, are subject
to the general provisions of this Section, as well as specific submittal requirements that
may be included in the Special Conditions or elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
Unless otherwise specified, all submittals should be transmitted elec tronically using
standard commercial software programs, including the Special Conditions or
Specifications. The Engineer may require submission of a submittal schedule at or before
a pre-construction conference, as may be specified in the Notice to Proceed.
(A) General. Contractor is responsible for ensuring that its submittals are complete,
legible, accurate and conform to the Contract Documents. Incomplete or illegible
submittals will be rejected and returned for resubmission. Contractor must use the
applicable forms provided or specified for use by the City, including the Project Forms
provided with the Contract Documents, and forms provided by City at the pre-
construction conference.
(B) Time and Manner of Submission. Contractor must ensure that its submittals
are prepared and delivered in a manner consistent with the current City-accepted
schedule for the Work and within the applicable time specified in the Contract
Documents, or if no time is specified, in such time and sequence so as not to delay the
performance of the Work or completion of the Project.
(C) Required Contents. Each submittal must include the Project name and contract
number, Contractor’s name and address, the name and address of any Subcontractor or
supplier involved with the submittal, the date, and references to applicable Specification
section(s) and/or drawing and detail number(s).
(D) Required Corrections. If corrections are required, Contractor must promptly
make and submit any required corrections as specified in full conformance with the
requirements of this Section, or other requirements that apply to that submittal. If a
submittal remains non-compliant after being re-submitted for a second time, City may
back-charge Contractor for all further review time and additional administrative costs. For
City employees the hourly amount charged will be 2.5 times the employee’s direct hourly
payroll cost to the City. For consultants, the amount charged will be 1.25 times the
amount billed to the City for additional review and administrative time.
(E) Effect of Review and Acceptance. Review and acceptance of a submittal by
City will not relieve Contractor from complying with the requirements of the Contract
Documents. Contractor is responsible for any errors in any submittal, and review or
acceptance of a submittal by City is not an assumption of risk or liability by City.
(F) Enforcement. Any Work performed or any material furnished, installed,
fabricated or used without City’s prior acceptance of a required submittal is performed or
provided at Contractor’s risk, and Contractor may be required to bear the costs incident
thereto, including the cost of removing and replacing such Work, repairs to other affected
portions of the Work or material, and the cost of additional time or services required of
City, including costs for the Design Professional, Project Manager, or Inspector.
(G) Excessive RFIs. A Request for Information (RFI) will be considered excessive
or unnecessary if City determines that the explanation or response to the RFI is clearly
and unambiguously discernable from the Contract Documents. City’s costs to review and
respond to excessive or unnecessary RFIs may be deducted from payments otherwise
due to Contractor, on the same basis as excessive submittal review, under subsection
(D) (Required Corrections).

GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 37
2.6 Shop Drawings. When Shop Drawings are required by the Specifications or requested
by the Engineer, they must be prepared according to best practices at Contractor’s
expense. The Shop Drawings must be of a size and scale to clearly show all necessary
details. Unless otherwise specified by City, Shop Drawings must be provided to the
Engineer for review and acceptance at least 30 days before the Work will be performed.
If City requires changes, the corrected Shop Drawings must be resubmitted to the
Engineer for review within the time specified by the Engineer. For all Project components
requiring Shop Drawings, Contractor will not furnish materials or perform any Work until
the Shop Drawings for those components are accepted by City. Contractor is
responsible for any errors or omissions in the Shop Drawings, shop fits and field
corrections, any deviations from the Contract Documents, and for the results obtained by
the use of Shop Drawings. Acceptance of Shop Drawings by City does not relieve
Contractor of Contractor’s responsibility.
2.7 Access to Work. Contractor must afford prompt and safe access to any Worksite by
City and its employees, agents, or consultants authorized by City; and upon request by
City, Contractor must promptly arrange for City representatives to visit or inspect
manufacturing sites or fabrication facilities for items to be incorporated into the Work.
2.8 Personnel. Contractor and its Subcontractors must employ only competent and skillful
personnel to perform the Work. Contractor and its Subcontractor’s supervisors, security
or safety personnel, and employees who have unescorted acces s to the Project site must
possess proficiency in English sufficient to read, understand, receive, and implement oral
or written communications or instructions relating to their respective job functions,
including safety and security requirements. Upon written notification from the Engineer,
Contractor and its Subcontractors must immediately discharge any personnel who are
incompetent, disorderly, disruptive, threatening, abusive, or profane, or otherwise refuse
or fail to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents or Laws, including
Laws pertaining to health and safety. Any such discharged personnel, may not be re -
employed or permitted on the Project in any capacity without City’s prior written consent.
Article 3 - Contract Documents
3.1 Interpretation of Contract Documents.
(A) Plans and Specifications. The Plans and Specifications included in the
Contract Documents are complementary. If Work is shown on one but not on the other,
Contractor must perform the Work as though fully described on both, consistent with the
Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce
the indicated results. The Plans and Specifications are deemed to include and require
everything necessary and reasonably incidental to com pletion of the Work, whether or
not particularly mentioned or shown. Contractor must perform all work and services and
supply all things reasonably related to and inferable from the Contract Documents. In the
event of a conflict between the Plans and Specifications, the Specifications will control,
unless the drawing(s) at issue are dated later than the Specification(s) at issue . Detailed
Plans take precedence over general drawings, and large scale drawings take precedence
over smaller scale drawings. Any arrangement or division of the Plans and Specifications
into sections is for convenience and is not intended to limit the Work required by separate
trades. A conclusion presented in the Plans or Specifications is only a recommendation.
Actual locations and depths must be determined by Contractor’s field investigation.
Contractor may request access to underlying or background information in City’s
possession that is necessary for Contractor to form its own conclusions.
(B) Duty to Notify and Seek Direction. If Contractor becomes aware of a changed
condition in the Project, or of any ambiguity, conflict, inconsistency, discrepancy,
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 38
omission, or error in the Contract Documents, including the Plans or Specifications,
Contractor must promptly submit a Request for Information to the Engineer and wait for a
response from City before proceeding further with the related Work. The RFI must notify
City of the issue and request clarification, interpretation or direction. The Engineer’s
clarification, interpretation or direction will be final and binding on Contractor. If
Contractor proceeds with the related Work before obtaining City’s response, Contractor
will be responsible for any resulting costs, including the cost of correcting any incorrect or
defective Work that results. Timely submission of a clear and complete RFI is essential to
avoiding delay. Delay resulting from Contractor’s failure to submit a timely and complete
RFI to the Engineer is Non-Excusable Delay. If Contractor believes that City’s response
to an RFI justifies a change to the Contract Price or Contract Time, Contractor must
perform the Work as directed, but may submit a timely Change Order request in
accordance with the Contract Documents. (See Article 5 and 6.)
(C) Figures and Dimensions. Figures control over scaled dimensions.
(D) Technical or Trade Terms. Any terms that have well-known technical or trade
meanings will be interpreted in accordance with those meanings, unless otherwise
specifically defined in the Contract Documents.
(E) Measurements. Contractor must verify all relevant measurements in the
Contract Documents and at the Project site before ordering any material or performing
any Work, and will be responsible for the correctness of those measurements,
or for costs that could have been avoided by independently verifying measurements
(F) Limitations. Any arrangement or division of the Plans and Specifications into
sections is for convenience and is not intended to limit the Work required by separate
trades. A conclusion presented in the Drawings or Specifications is only a
recommendation. Actual locations and depths must be determined by Contractor’s field
investigation. Contractor may request access to underlying or background information in
City’s possession that is necessary for Contractor to form its own conclusions, with the
most recent version taking precedent over an earlier version.
(G) Compliance with Laws. The Contract Documents are intended to comply with
Laws and will be interpreted to comply with Laws.
3.2 Order of Precedence. Information included in one Contract Document but not in
another will not be considered a conflict or inconsistency. Unless otherwise specified in
the Special Conditions, in case of any conflict or inconsistency among the Contract
Documents, the following order of precedence will apply, beginning from highest to
lowest, with the most recent version taking precedent over any earlier version:
(A) Change Orders;
(B) Addenda;
(C) Contract;
(D) Notice to Proceed;
(E) Special Conditions;
(F) General Conditions;
(G) Payment, and Performance;
(H) Specifications;
(I) Plans;
(K) Contractor’s Bid Proposal and attachments;
(L) Notice of Award
(L) Notice Inviting Bids;
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 39
(M) Instructions to Bidders;
(N) The City of Cupertino’s Standard Details; and
(O) Any generic documents prepared by and on behalf of a third party, that were not
prepared specifically for this Project, such as the Caltrans Standard Specifications or
Caltrans Special Provisions.
3.3 Caltrans Standard Specifications. Any reference to or incorporation of the Standard
Specifications of the State of California, Department of Transportation (“Caltrans”),
including “Standard Specifications,” “Caltrans Specifications,” “State Specifications,” or
“CSS,” means the most current edition of Caltrans’ Standard Specifications , unless
otherwise specified (“Caltrans Standard Specifications”), including the most current
amendments as of the date that Contractor’s bid was submitted for this Project. The
following provisions apply to use of or reference to the Caltrans Standard Specifications
or Special Provisions:
(A) Limitations. The “General Provisions” of the Caltrans Standard Specifications,
i.e., sections 1 through 9, do not apply to these Contract Documents with the exception of
any specific provisions, if any, which are expressly stated to apply to these Contract
Documents.
(B) Conflicts or Inconsistencies. If there is a conflict or inconsistency between any
provision in the Caltrans Standard Specifications or Special Provisions and a provision of
these Contract Documents, as determined by City, the provision in the Contract
Documents will govern.
(C) Meanings. Terms used in the Caltrans Standard Specifications or Special
Provisions are to be interpreted as follows:
(1) Any reference to the “Engineer” is deemed to mean the City Engineer.
(2) Any reference to the “Special Provisions” is deemed to mean the Special
Conditions, unless the Caltrans Special Provisions are expressly included in the
Contract Documents listed in Section 2 of the Contract.
(3) Any reference to the “Department” or “State” is deemed to mean City.
3.4 For Reference Only. Contractor is responsible for the careful review of any document,
study, or report provided by City or appended to the Contract Documents solely for
informational purposes and identified as “For Reference Only.” Nothing in any document,
study, or report so appended and identified is intended to supplement, alter, or void any
provision of the Contract Documents. Contractor is advised that City or its
representatives may be guided by information or recommendations included in such
reference documents, particularly when making determinations as to the acceptability of
proposed materials, methods, or changes in the Work. Any record drawings or similar
final or accepted drawings or maps that are not part of the Contract Documents are
deemed to be For Reference Only. The provisions of the Contract Documents are not
modified by any perceived or actual conflict with provisions in any document that is
provided For Reference Only.
3.5 Current Versions. Unless otherwise specified by City, any reference to standard
specifications, technical specifications, or any City or state codes or regulations means
the latest specification, code or regulation in effect at the time the Contract is signed.
3.6 Conformed Copies. If City prepares a conformed set of the Contract Documents
following award of the Contract, it will provide Contractor with a copy of the electronic file
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 40
in PDF format. It is Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that all Subcontractors, including
fabricators, are provided with the conformed set of the Contract Documents at
Contractor’s sole expense.
3.7 Ownership. No portion of the Contract Documents may be used for any purpose other
than construction of the Project, without prior written consent from City. Contractor is
deemed to have conveyed the copyright in any designs, drawings, specifications, Shop
Drawings, or other documents (in paper or electronic form) developed by Contractor for
the Project, and City will retain all rights to such works, including the right to possession.
Article 4 - Bonds, Indemnity, and Insurance
4.1 Payment and Performance Bonds. Within ten days following issuance of the Notice of
Award, Contractor is required to provide a payment bond and a performance bond, each
in the penal sum of not less than 100% of the Contract Price, and each executed by
Contractor and its surety using the bond forms included with the Contract Documents.
(A) Surety. Each bond must be issued and executed by a surety admitted in
California, and the surety must have a financial rating from A.M. Best Company of A-,
class 7 or better, or as otherwise acceptable to the City. If an issuing surety cancels the
bond or becomes insolvent, within seven days following written notice from City,
Contractor must substitute a surety acceptable to City. If Contractor fails to substitute an
acceptable surety within the specified time, City may, at its sole discretion, withhold
payment from Contractor until the surety is replaced to City’s satisfaction, or terminate
the Contract for default.
(B) Supplemental Bonds for Increase in Contract Price. If the Contract Price
increases during construction by five percent or more over the original Contract Price,
Contractor must provide supplemental or replacement bonds within ten days of written
notice from City pursuant to this Section, covering 100% of the increased Contract Price
and using the bond forms included with the Contract Documents.
4.2 Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor must indemnify, defend,
and hold harmless City, its Council, officers, officials, employees, agents, volunteers and
consultants (individually, an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and
against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, causes of action, demands, charges,
fines, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney fees, expert witness
fees, paralegal fees, and fees and costs of litigation or arbitration) (collectively, “Liability”)
of every nature arising out of or in connection with the acts or omissions of Contractor, its
employees, Subcontractors, representatives, or agents, in bidding or performing the Work
or in failing to comply with any obligation of Contractor under the Contract, except such
Liability caused by the active negligence, sole negligence, or willful misconduct of an
Indemnitee. This indemnity requirement applies to any Liability arising from alleged
defects in the content or manner of submission of Contractor’s bid for the Contract.
Contractor’s failure or refusal to timely accept a tender of defense pursuant to this
Contract will be deemed a material breach of the Contract. City will timely notify
Contractor upon receipt of any third-party claim relating to the Contract, as required by
Public Contract Code section 9201. Contractor waives any right to express or implied
indemnity against any Indemnitee. Contractor’s indemnity obligations under this Contract
will survive the expiration or any early termination of the Contract.

City reserves the right to modify these insurance requirements based on Contractor’s prior
experience, insurer, coverage, and considering the nature of the risk involved in the work and
other circumstances. Contractor should discuss these requirements with its insurer and the
designated Public Works Agency representative.
Self-Insured Retentions. Self-insured retentions must be declared to and appro ved by City. At
City’s option, either :(1) Contractor shall cause the insurer to reduce or eliminate self -insured

which shall name the City as a loss payee, as its interest may appear. Policy limits must be
per occurrence and for all-risk coverage on a 100% completed value basis on the insurable
portion of the Project, with no coinsurance penalties, and for the benefit of City. If the Project does
not involve new or major reconstruction, City may elect in its sole discretion to accept an
Installation Floater policy instead of Builder’s Risk. For such projects, the Property Installation
Floater shall include improvement, remodel, modification, alteration, conversion or adjustment to
existing buildings, structures, processes, machinery and equipment, and shall provide property
damage coverage for any building, structure, machinery or equipment damaged, impaired,
broken, or destroyed during the performance of the Work, including during transit, installation,
and testing at the City’s site.

certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work
commences. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required
insurance policies, including endorsements, required by these specifications, at any time.
Subcontractors
Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the
requirements stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on

contract or the beginning of contract work.
2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5)
years after completion of contract work.
3. If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy
form with a retroactive date prior to the contract effective, or start of work date, the Contractor

GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 44
Pollution Liability policy shall not contain lead-based paint or asbestos exclusions. If the services
involve mold identification/remediation, the Contractors Pollution Liability policy shall not contain
a mold exclusion, and the definition of Pollution shall include microbia l matter, including mold.
Article 5 - Contract Time
5.1 Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence in Contractor’s performance and
completion of the Work, and Contractor must diligently prosecute the Work and complete
it within the Contract Time.
(A) Notice to Proceed. Contractor must commence the Work on the date indicated
in the Notice to Proceed, and must fully complete the Work in strict compliance with all
requirements of the Contract Documents and within the Contract Time. The Notice to
Proceed will not be issued until Contractor has executed and returned the Contract, the
required bonds, insurance certificates and endorsements and any other submittals
required prior to issuance of the Notice to Proceed, subject to City’s approval of all such
documents. Contractor may not begin performing Work before the date authorized in the
Notice to Proceed. After receiving the Notice to Proceed, Contractor must notify the City
in writing of the date Contractor intends to begin Work on the Project, at least 24 hours in
advance of beginning the Work. Contractor is not entitled to compensation or credit for
any Work performed before the date specified in the Notice to Proceed, with the
exception of any schedules, submittals, or other requirements , if any, that must be
provided or performed before issuance of the Notice to Proceed.
(B) Rate of Progress. Contractor and its Subcontractors must, at all times, provide
workers, materials, and equipment sufficient to maintain the rate of progress necessary to
ensure full completion of the Work within the Contract Time. If City determines that
Contractor is failing to prosecute the Work at a sufficient rate of progress, City may, in its
sole discretion, direct Contractor to provide additional workers, materials, or equipment,
or to work additional hours or days without additional cost to City, in order to achieve a
rate of progress satisfactory to City. If Contractor fails to comply with City’s directive in
this regard, City may, at Contractor’s expense, separately contract for additional workers,
materials, or equipment or use City’s own forces to achieve the necessary rate of
progress. Alternatively, City may terminate the Contract based on Contractor’s default.
5.2 Schedule Requirements. Contractor must prepare all schedules using standard
commercial scheduling software acceptable to the Engineer, and must provide the
schedules in electronic and paper form as requested by the Engineer. In addition to the
general scheduling requirements set forth below, Contractor must also comply with any
scheduling requirements included in the Special Conditions or in the Technical
Specifications.
(A) Baseline (As-Planned) Schedule. Within ten calendar days following City’s
issuance of the Notice to Proceed (or as otherwise specified in the Special Conditions or
Notice to Proceed), Contractor must submit to City for review and acceptance a baseline
(as-planned) schedule using critical path methodology showing in detail how Contractor
plans to perform and fully complete the Work within the Contract Time, including labor,
equipment, materials and fabricated items. The baseline schedule must show the order of
the major items of W ork and the dates of start and completion of each item, including
when the materials and equipment will be procured. The schedule must also include the
work of all trades, reflecting anticipated labor or crew hours and equipment loading for
the construction activities, and must be sufficiently comprehensive and detailed to enable
progress to be monitored on a day-by-day basis. For each activity, the baseline schedule
must be dated, provided in the format specified in the Contract Documents or as required
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 45
by City, and must include, at a minimum, a description of the activity, the start and
completion dates of the activity, and the duration of the activity.
(1) Specialized Materials Ordering. Within five calendar days following issuance
of the Notice to Proceed, Contractor must order any specialized material or
equipment for the Work that is not readily available from material suppliers.
Contractor must also retain documentation of the purchase orders date(s).
(B) City’s Review of Schedules. City will review and may note exceptions to the
baseline schedule, and to the progress schedules submitted as required below, to assure
completion of the Work within the Contract Time. Contractor is solely responsible for
resolving any exceptions noted in a schedule and, within seven days, must correct the
schedule to address the exceptions. City’s review or acceptance of Contractor’s
schedules will not operate to waive or limit Contractor’s duty to complete the Project
within the Contract Time, nor to waive or limit City’s right to assess liquidated damages
for Contractor’s unexcused failure to do so.
(C) Progress Schedules. After City accepts the final baseline schedule with no
exceptions, Contractor must submit an updated progress schedule and three-week look-
ahead schedule, in the format specified by City, for review and acceptance with each
application for a progress payment, or when otherwise specified by City, until completion
of the Work. The updated progress schedule must: show how the actual progress of the
Work as constructed to date compares to the baseline schedule; reflect any proposed
changes in the construction schedule or method of operations, including to achieve
Project milestones within the Contract Time; and identify any actual or potential impacts
to the critical path. Contractor must also submit periodic reports to City of any changes in
the projected material or equipment delivery dates for the Project.
(1) Float. The progress schedule must show early and late completion dates for
each task. The number of days between those dates will be designated as the
“float.” Any float belongs to the Project and may be allocated by the Engineer to
best serve timely completion of the Project.
(2) Failure to Submit Schedule. Reliable, up-to-date schedules are essential to
efficient and cost-effective administration of the Project and timely completion. If
Contractor fails to submit a schedule within the time periods specified in this
Section, or submits a schedule to which City has noted exceptions that are not
corrected, City may withhold or deduct up to ten percent from payment(s)
otherwise due to Contractor until the exceptions are resolved, the schedule is
corrected and resubmitted, and City has accepted the schedule. In addition,
Contractor’s failure to comply with the schedule requirements in this Section 5.2
will be deemed a material default and a waiver of any claims for Excusable Delay
or loss of productivity arising during any period when Contractor is out of
compliance, subject only to the limits of Public Contract Code section 7102.
(D) Recovery Schedule. If City determines that the Work is more than one week
behind schedule, within seven days following written notice of such determination,
Contractor must submit a recovery schedule, showing how Contractor intends to perform
and complete the Work within the Contract Time, based on actual progress to date.
(E) Effect of Acceptance. Contractor and its Subcontractors must perform the
Work in accordance with the most current City-accepted schedule unless otherwise
directed by City. City’s acceptance of a schedule does not operate to extend the time for
completion of the Work or any component of the Work, and will not affect City’s right to
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 46
assess liquidated damages for Contractor’s unexcused delay in completing the Work
within the Contract Time.
(F) Posting. Contractor must at all times prominently post a copy of the most current
City-accepted progress or recovery schedule in its on-site office.
(G) Reservation of Rights. City reserves the right to direct the sequence in which
the Work must be performed or to make changes in the sequence of the Work in order to
facilitate the performance of work by City or others, or to facilitate City’s use of its
property. The Contract Time or Contract Price may be adjusted to the extent such
changes in sequence actually increase or decrease Contractor’s time or cost to perform
the Work.
(H) Authorized Working Days and Times. Contractor is limited to working Monday
through Friday, excluding holidays, during City’s normal business hours, except as
provided in the Special Conditions or as authorized in writing by City. City reserves the
right to charge Contractor for additional costs incurred by City due to Work performed on
days or during hours not expressly authorized in the Contract Documents, including
reimbursement of costs incurred for inspection, testing, and construction management
services.
5.3 Delay and Extensions of Contract Time.
(A) Notice of Delay. If Contractor becomes aware of any actual or potential delay
affecting the critical path, Contractor must promptly notify the Engineer in writing,
regardless of the nature or cause of the delay, so that City has a reasonable opportunity
to mitigate or avoid the delay.
(B) Excusable Delay. The Contract Time may be extended if Contractor encounters
“Excusable Delay,” which is an unavoidable delay in completing the Work within the
Contract Time due to causes completely beyond Contractor’s control, and which
Contractor could not have avoided or mitigated through reasonable care, planning,
foresight, and diligence, provided that Contractor is otherwise fully performing its
obligations under the Contract Documents. Grounds for Excusable Delay may include
fire, natural disasters including earthquake or unusually severe weather, acts of terror or
vandalism, epidemic, unforeseeable adverse government actions, unforeseeable actions
of third parties, encountering unforeseeable hazardous materials, unforeseeable site
conditions, or suspension for convenience under Article 13. The Contract Time will not be
extended based on circumstances which will not unavoidably delay completing the Work
within the Contract Time based on critical path analysis.
(C) Non-Excusable Delay. Delay which Contractor could have avoided or mitigated
through reasonable care, planning, foresight and diligence is “Non-Excusable Delay.”
Contractor is not entitled to an extension of Contract Time or any compensation for Non-
Excusable Delay, or for Excusable Delay that is concurrent with Non-Excusable Delay.
Non-Excusable Delay includes delay caused by:
(1) weather conditions which are normal for the location of the Project, as
determined by reliable records, including monthly rainfall averages, for the
preceding ten years;
(2) Contractor’s failure to order equipment and materials sufficiently in advance
of the time needed for completion of the Work within the Contract Time;
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 47
(3) Contractor’s failure to provide adequate notification to utility companies or
agencies for connections or services necessary for completion of the Work within
the Contract Time;
(4) Foreseeable conditions which Contractor could have ascertained from
reasonably diligent inspection of the Project site or review of the Contract
Documents or other information provided or available to Contractor;
(5) Contractor’s failure. refusal, or financial inability to perform the Work within
the Contract Time, including insufficient funds to pay its Subcontractors or
suppliers.
(6) performance or non-performance by Contractor’s Subcontractors or
suppliers;
(7) the time required to respond to excessive RFIs (see Section 2.5(G));
(8) delayed submission of required submittals, or the time required for correction
and resubmission of defective submittals;
(9) time required for repair of, re-testing, or re-inspection of defective Work;
(10) enforcement of Laws by City, or outside agencies with jurisdiction over the
Work; or
(11) City’s exercise or enforcement of any of its rights or Contractor’s duties
pursuant to the Contract Documents, including correction of defective Work,
extra inspections or testing due to non-compliance with Contract requirements,
safety compliance, environmental compliance, or rejection and return of defective
or deficient submittals.
(D) Compensable Delay. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 7102, in
addition to entitlement to an extension of Contract Time, Contractor is entitled to
compensation for costs incurred due to delay caused solely by City, when that delay is
unreasonable under the circumstances involved and not within the contemplation of the
parties (“Compensable Delay”). Contractor is not entitled to an extension of Contract
Time or recovery of costs for Compensable Delay that is concurrent with Non-Excusable
Delay. Delay due to causes that are beyond the control of either City or Contractor,
including Weather Delay Days, discovery of Historic or Archeological Items pursuant to
Section 7.18, or the actions or inactions of third parties or other agencies, is not
Compensable Delay, and will only entitle Contractor to an extension of time
commensurate with the time lost due to such delay.
(E) Concurrent Delay. Contractor is not entitled to an extension of Contract Time or
recovery of costs for any Compensable Delay that is concurrent with Non-Excusable
Delay.
(F) Weather Delay. A “Weather Delay Day” is a Working Day during which
Contractor and its forces, including Subcontractors, are unable to perform more than 40%
of the critical path Work scheduled for that day due to adverse weather conditions which
impair the ability to safely or effectively perform the scheduled critical path Work that day.
Adverse weather conditions may include rain, saturated soil, and Project site cleanup
required due to adverse weather. Determination of what constitutes critical path Work
scheduled for that day will be based on the most current, City-approved schedule.
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 48
(1) Based on historic records for the Project location from the Western
Regional Climate Center, Contractor’s schedule should assume the following
number of normal Weather Delay Days and precipitation for each month:
Month # Normal Weather Precipitation
Delay Days
January 6 2.86
February 6 2.66
March 6 2.29
April 3 1.20
May 1 0.44
June 0 0.10
July 0 0.02
August 0 0.07
September 1 0.19
October 2 0.76
November 4 1.51
December 5 2.43
Total 34 14.53
(2) Contractor will be entitled to a non-compensable extension of the
Contract Time for each Weather Delay Day in excess of the normal Weather
Delay Days within a given month, as set forth in Section 5.3(F)(1) above, subject
to the following limitations:
a. Contractor must fully comply with the applicable procedures in
Article 5 and 6 of these General Conditions regarding requests to modify
the Contract Time.
b. Normal Weather Delay Days which do not occur during a given
month do not carry over to another month.
c. Contractor will not be entitled to an extension of time for a
Weather Delay Day to the extent Contractor is responsible for concurrent
delay on that day.
d. Contractor must take reasonable steps to mitigate the
consequences of Weather Delay Days, including prudent workforce
management and protecting the Work, Project Site, materials, and
equipment.
(G) Recoverable Costs. Contractor is not entitled to compensation for Excusable
Delay unless it is Compensable Delay, as defined above. Contractor is entitled to recover
only the actual, direct, reasonable, and substantiated costs (“Recoverable Costs”) for
each working day that the Compensable Delay prevents Contractor from proceeding with
more than 50% of the critical path Work scheduled for that day, based on the most recent
progress schedule accepted by City. Recoverable Costs will not include home office
overhead or lost profit.
(H) Request for Extension of Contract Time or Recoverable Costs. A request for
an extension of Contract Time or any associated Recoverable Costs must be submitted
in writing to City within ten calendar days of the date the delay is first encountered, even
if the duration of the delay is not yet known at that time, or any entitlement to the Contract
Time extension or to the Recoverable Costs will be deemed waived. In addition to
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 49
complying with the requirements of this Article 5, the reques t must be submitted in
compliance with the Change Order request procedures in Article 6 below. Strict
compliance with these requirements is necessary to ensure that any delay or
consequences of delay may be mitigated as soon as possible, and to facilitate cost-
efficient administration of the Project and timely performance of the Work. Any request for
an extension of Contract Time or Recoverable Costs that does not strictly comply with all
of the requirements of Article 5 and Article 6 will be deemed waived.
(1) Required Contents. The request must include a detailed description of the
cause(s) of the delay, and must also describe the measures that Contractor has
taken to mitigate the delay and/or its effects, including efforts to mitigate the cost
impact of the delay, such as by workforce management or by a change in
sequencing. If the delay is still ongoing at the time the request is submitted, the
request should also include Contractor’s plan for continued mitigation of the
delay or its effects.
(2) Delay Days and Costs. The request must specify the number of days of
Excusable Delay claimed, or provide a realistic estimate if the duration of the
delay is not yet known. If Contractor believes it is entitled to Recoverable Costs
for Compensable Delay, the request must specify the amount and basis for the
Recoverable Costs that are claimed, or provide a realistic estimate if the amount
is not yet known. Any estimate of delay duration or cost must be updated in
writing and submitted with all required supporting documentation as soon as the
actual time and cost is known. The maximum extension of Contract Time will be
the number of days, if any, by which an Excusable Delay or a Compensable
Delay exceeds any concurrent Non-Excusable Delay. Contractor is entitled to an
extension of Contract Time, or compensation for Recoverable Costs, only if, and
only to the extent that, such delay will unavoidably delay Final Completion.
(3) Supporting Documentation. The request must also include any and all
supporting documentation necessary to evidence the delay and its actual
impacts, including scheduling and cost impacts with a time impact analysis using
critical path methodology and demonstrating the unavoidable d elay to Final
Completion. The time impact analysis must be submitted in a form or format
acceptable to City.
(4) Burden of Proof. Contractor has the burden of proving that: the delay was an
Excusable or Compensable Delay, as defined above; Contractor has fully
complied with its scheduling obligations in Section 5.2, Schedule Requirements;
Contractor has made reasonable efforts to mitigate the delay and its schedule
and cost impacts; the delay will unavoidably result in delaying Final Completion;
and any Recoverable Costs claimed by Contractor were actually incurred and
were reasonable under the circumstances.
(5) Legal Compliance. Nothing in this Section 5.3 is intended to require the
waiver, alteration, or limitation of the applicability of Public Contract Code section
7102.
(6) No Waiver. Any grant of an extension of Contract Time, or compensation for
Recoverable Costs due to Compensable Delay, will not operate as a waiver of
City’s right to assess liquidated damages for Non-Excusable Delay.
(7) Dispute Resolution. In the event of a dispute over entitlement to an
extension of Contract Time or compensation for Recoverable Costs, Contractor
may not stop W ork pending resolution of the dispute, but must continue to
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 50
comply with its duty to diligently prosecute the performance and timely
completion of the Work. Contractor’s sole recourse for an unresolved dispute
based on City’s rejection of a Change Order request for an extension of Contract
Time or compensation for Recoverable Costs is to comply with the dispute
resolution provisions set forth in Article 12 below.
5.4 Liquidated Damages. It is expressly understood that if Final Completion is not achieved
within the Contract Time, City will suffer damages from the delay that are difficult to
determine and accurately specify. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 7203, if
Contractor fails to achieve Final Completion within the Contract Time, City will charge
Contractor in the amount specified in the Contract for each day that Final Completion is
delayed beyond the Contract Time, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty.
(A) Liquidated Damages. Liquidated damages will not be assessed for any
Excusable or Compensable Delay, as set forth above.
(B) Milestones. Liquidated damages may also be separately assessed for failure to
meet milestones specified elsewhere in the Contract Documents .
(C) Setoff. City is entitled to deduct the amount of liquidated damages assessed
against any payments otherwise due to Contractor, including progress payments, Final
Payment, or unreleased retention. If there are insufficient Contract funds remaining to
cover the full amount of liquidated dam ages assessed, City is entitled to recover the
balance from Contractor or its performance bond surety.
(D) Occupancy or Use. Occupancy or use of the Project in whole or in part prior to
Final Completion does not constitute City’s acceptance of the Project and will not operate
as a waiver of City’s right to assess liquidated damages
for Contractor’s Non-Excusable Delay in achieving Final Completion.
(E) Other Remedies. City’s right to liquidated damages under this Section applies
only to damages arising from Contractor’s Non-Excusable Delay or failure to complete
the Work within the Contract Time. City retains its right to pursue all other remedies
under the Contract for other types of damage, including damage to property or persons,
costs or diminution in value from defective materials or workmanship, costs to repair or
complete the Work, or other liability caused by Contractor..
Article 6 - Contract Modification
6.1 Contract Modification. Subject to the limited exception set forth in subsection (D)
below, any change in the Work or the Contract Documents, including the Contract Price
or Contract Time, will not be a valid and binding change to the Contract unless it is
formalized in a Change Order, including a “no-cost” Change Order or a unilateral Change
Order. Change in the Work pursuant to this Article 6 will not operate to release, limit, or
abridge Contractor’s warranty obligations pursuant to Article 11 or any obligations of
Contractor’s bond sureties.
(A) City-Directed Changes. City may direct changes in the scope or sequence of
Work or the requirements of the Contract Documents, without invalidating the Contract.
Such changes may include Extra Work as set forth in subsection (C) below, deletion or
modification of portions of the Work, or other modifications determined by City, acting in
its sole discretion, to be in City’s best interest. Pursuant to section 3.23.170 of the
Cupertino Municipal Code, City reserves the right to delete up to 25% of the Work. Any
change in the Work, whether directed by City or pursuant to Contractor’s request for a
Change Order under Section 6.2 below, will not be a valid and binding change to the
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 51
Contract unless it is formalized in a Change Order, which may include commensurate
changes in the Contract Price or Contract Time as applicable. Contractor must promptly
comply with City-directed changes in the Work in accordance with the original Contract
Documents, even if Contractor and City have not yet reached agreement as to
adjustments to the Contract Price or Contract Time for the change in the Work or for the
Extra Work. Contractor is not entitled to extra compensation for cost savings resulting
from “value engineering” pursuant to Public Contract Code section 7101 except to the
extent authorized in advance by City in writing , and subject to any applicable procedural
requirements for submitting a proposal for value engineering cost savings.
(B) Disputes. In the event of a dispute over entitlement to or the amount of a Time
or a change in Contract Price related to a City-directed change in the Work, Contractor
must perform the Work as directed and may not delay its W ork or cease Work pending
resolution of the dispute, but must continue to comply with its duty to diligently prosecute
the performance and timely completion of the Work, including the Work in dispute.
Likewise, in the event that City and Contractor dispute whether a portion or portions of
the Work are already required by the Contract Documents or constitute Extra Work, or
otherwise dispute the interpretation of any portion(s) of the Contract Documents,
Contractor must perform the Work as directed and may not delay its Work or cease Work
pending resolution of the dispute, but must continue to comply with its duty to diligently
prosecute the performance and timely completion of the Work, including the Work in
dispute, as directed by City. If Contractor refuses to perform the Work in dispute, City
may, acting in its sole discretion, elect to delete the Work from the Contract and reduce
the Contract Price accordingly, and self -perform the Work or direct that the Work be
performed by others. Alternatively, City may elect to terminate the Contract for
convenience or for cause. Contractor’s sole recourse for an unresolved dispute related
to changes in the Work or performance of any Extra Work is to comply with the dispute
resolution provisions set forth in Article 12, below.
(C) Extra Work. City may direct Contractor to perform Extra Work related to the
Project. Contractor must promptly perform any Extra Work as directed or authorized by
City in accordance with the original Contract Documents, even if Contractor and City
have not yet reached agreement on adjustments to the Contract Price or Contract Time
for such Extra W ork. Contractor must maintain detailed daily records that itemize the cost
of each element of Extra Work , and sufficiently distinguish the direct cost of the Extra
Work from the cost of other Work performed. For each day that Contractor performs
Extra Work, or Work that Contractor contends is Extra Work, Contractor must submit no
later than the following Working Day, a daily report of the Extra Work performed that day
and the related costs, together with copies of certified payroll, invoices, and other
documentation substantiating the costs (“Extra Work Report”). The Engineer will make
any adjustments to Contractor’s Extra Work Report(s) based on the Engineer’s records of
the W ork. When an Extra Work Report(s) is agreed on and signed by both City and
Contractor, the Extra Work Report(s) will become the basis for payment under a duly
authorized and signed Change Order. Failure to submit the required documentation by
close of business on the next Working Day is deemed a full and complete waiver for any
change in the Contract Price or Contract Time for any Extra Work performed that day.
(D) Minor Changes and RFIs. Minor field changes, including RFI replies from City,
that do not affect the Contract Price or Contract Time and that are approved by the
Engineer acting within his or her scope of authority, do not require a Change Order. By
executing an RFI reply from City, Contractor agrees that it will perform the Work as
clarified therein, with no change to the Contract Price or Contract Time.
(E) Remedy for Non-Compliance. Contractor’s failure to promptly comply with a
City-directed change is deemed a material breach of the Contract, and in addition to all
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 52
other remedies available to it, City may, at its sole discretion, hire another contractor or
use its own forces to complete the disputed Work at Contractor’s sole expense, and may
deduct the cost from the Contract Price.
6.2 Contractor Change Order Requests. Contractor must submit a request or proposal for
a change in the Work, compensation for Extra Work, or a change in the Contract Price or
Contract Time as a written Change Order request or proposal.
(A) Time for Submission. Any request for a change in the Contract Price or the
Contract Time must be submitted in writing to the Engineer within ten calendar days of
the date that Contractor first encounters the circumstances, information or conditions
giving rise to the Change Order request, even if the total amount of the requested change
in the Contract Price or impact on the Contract Time is not yet known at that time. If City
requests that Contractor propose the terms of a Change Order, unless otherwise
specified in City’s request, Contractor must provide the Engineer with a written proposal
for the change in the Contract Price or Contract Time within five working days of
receiving City’s request, in a form satisfactory to the Engineer.
(B) Required Contents. Any Change Order request or proposal submitted by
Contractor must include a complete breakdown of actual or estimated costs and credits,
and must itemize labor, materials, equipment, taxes, insurance, subcontract amounts and
if applicable, Extra Work Reports. Any estimated cost must be updated in writing as soon
as the actual amount is known.
(C) Required Documentation. All claimed costs must be fully documented, and any
related request for an extension of time or delay-related costs must be included at that
time and in compliance with the requirements of Article 5 of the General Conditions.
Upon request, Contractor must permit City to inspect its original and unaltered bidding
records, subcontract agreements, subcontract change orders, purchase orders, invoices,
or receipts associated with the claimed costs.
(D) Required Form. Contractor must use City’s form(s) for subm itting all Change
Order requests or proposals, unless otherwise specified by City.
(E) Certification. All Change Order requests must be signed by Contractor and
must include the following certification:
“The undersigned Contractor certifies under penalty of perjury that its
statements and representations in this Change Order request are true and
correct. Contractor warrants that this Change Order request is comprehensive
and complete as to the Work or changes referenced herein, and agrees that any
known or foreseeable costs, expenses, or time extension requests not included
herein are deemed waived. Contractor understands that submission of claims
which have no basis in fact or which Contractor knows to be false may violate
the False Claims Act, as set forth in Government Code sections 12650 et seq.”
6.3 Adjustments to Contract Price. The amount of any increase or decrease in the
Contract Price will be determined based on one of the following methods, listed below in
the order listed with unit pricing taking precedence over the other methods. Markup
applies only to City-authorized time and material Work, and does not apply to any other
payments to Contractor.
(A) Unit Pricing. Amounts previously provided by Contractor in the form of unit
prices, either in a bid schedule or in a post award schedule of values pursuant to Section
8.1, Schedule of Values, will apply to determine the price for the affected Work, to the
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 53
extent applicable unit prices have been provided for that type of Work . No additional
markup for overhead, profit, or other indirect costs will be added to the calculation.
(B) Lump Sum. A mutually agreed upon lump sum for the affected Work with no
additional markup for overhead, profit, or other indirect costs.
(C) Time and Materials. On a time and materials basis, if and only to the extent
compensation on a time and materials basis is expressly authorized by City in advance of
Contractor’s performance of the Work and subject to any not-to-exceed limit. Time and
materials compensation for increased costs or Extra Work (but not decreased costs or
deleted Work), will include allowed markup for overhead, profit, and other indirect costs,
and which may include a not-to-exceed limit, calculated as the total of the following sums:
(1) All direct labor costs provided by the Contractor, excluding superintendence,
project management, or administrative costs, plus 15% markup;
(2) All direct material costs provided by the Contractor, including sales tax, plus
15% markup;
(3) All direct plant and equipment rental costs provided by the Contractor, plus
15% markup;
(4) All direct additional subcontract costs plus 10% markup for Work performed
by Subcontractors; and
(5) Increased bond or insurance premium costs computed at 1.5% of total of the
previous four sums.
6.4 Unilateral Change Order. If the parties dispute the terms of a proposed Change Order,
including disputes over the amount of compensation or extension of time that Contractor
has requested, the value of deleted or changed Work, what constitutes Extra Work, or
quantities used, City may elect to issue a unilateral Change Order, directing performance
of the Work, and authorizing a change in the Contract Price or Contract Time for the
amount of compensation or added time that the City believes is merited. Contractor’s sole
recourse to dispute the terms of a unilateral Change Order is to submit a timely Claim
pursuant to Article 12, below.
6.5 Non-Compliance Deemed Waiver. Contractor waives its entitlement to any increase in
the Contract Price or Contract Time if Contractor fails to fully comply with the provisions
of this Article. Contractor will not be paid for unauthorized Extra W ork.
Article 7 - General Construction Provisions
7.1 Permits, Fees, Business License, and Taxes.

and control, the cost of which may be offset from the Contract Price and deducted from
any payment(s) due to Contractor.
(C) Existing City Equipment. Contractor will carefully remove all existing
equipment from the Worksite. If the City specifies or indicates that equipment is to be
salvaged and reused or to remain the property of City then the Contractor will reuse or
return the equipment to the City. Contractor will store and protect salvaged equipment
specified to be reused in the Work. Contractor will delivery to the City in good condition
the equipment that is to remain City property but not be reused in the Work.
(1) If an item specified to be salvaged is damaged during its removal,
storage, or handling through carelessness or improper procedures, then
Contractor will replace that equipment in kind or with a new item. For those items
specified to be salvaged Contractor may choose to instead furnish and install
new equipment, in which case the original, removed items will become
Contractor’s property. Existing materials and equipment removed by Contractor
will only be reused in the Work if so specified or indicated by the City.
(D) Intellectual Property Rights. Contractor must, at its sole expense, obtain any
authorization or license required for use of patented or copyright protected materials,
equipment, devices or processes that are incorporated into the Work. Contractor’s
indemnity obligations in Article 4 apply to any claimed violation of intellectual property
rights in violation of this provision.
(E) Certificate of Compliance. When a Certificate of Compliance is specified, or for
any material or item (“material”) produced or assembled outside of the United States,
Contractor must submit a Certificate of Compliance before incorporating that material into
the Project. A Certificate of Compliance must be submitted for each lot of material
delivered to the Project site, and in a form acceptable to the Engineer, identifying the
material, its source, and the lot. Each Certificate of Compliance must be signed by the
material producer stating that the material fully complies with the applicable requirements
of the Specifications. Submission of a Certificate of Compliance will not limit Contractor’s
continuing obligation to use only materials that conform with the requirements of the
Contract Documents. Any materials furnished pursuant to a Certificate of Compliance
may be inspected or tested at any time by City, subject to the inspection and testing
provisions of Article 7, and defective or non-conforming material may be rejected at any
time, even if already installed.
(F) Site Materials. Except as otherwise specified, City retains full ownership of and
all rights to use any water, soil, stone, gravel, sand, minerals or other materials (“Site
Materials”) on City property, including the Project site, and including any site materials
that have been extracted, excavated, or otherwise affected or made accessible by
performance of the Work. However, City, acting in its sole discretion, may provide written
authorization in the Special Conditions or in the Specifications or in a Change Order for
Contractor to make use of or incorporate specified Site Materials in the Work.
(G) Mined Materials. Pursuant to the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act of 1975,
Public Resources Code § 2710 et seq., any purchase of mined materials, such as

7.7 Substitutions.
(A) “Or Equal.” Any Specification designating a material, product, or thing
(collectively, “item”) or service by specific brand or trade name, followed by the words “or
equal,” is intended only to indicate the quality and type of item or service desired, and
Contractor may request use of any equal item or service. Unless otherwise stated in the
Specifications, any reference to a specific brand or trade name for an item that is used
solely for the purpose of describing the type of item desired, will be deemed to be
followed by the words “or equal.” A substitution will only be approved if it is a true “equal”
item in every aspect of design, function, and quality, as determined by City, including
dimensions, weight, maintenance requirements, durability, fit with other elements, and
schedule impacts.
(B) Request for Substitution. A request for substitution of an item or service must
be submitted in writing to the Engineer for approval in advance, within the applicable time
period provided in the Contract Documents. If no time period is specified, the substitution
request may be submitted any time within 35 days after the date of award of the Contract,
or sufficiently in advance of the time needed to avoid delay of the Work, whichever is
earlier. The request must be submitted on the City’s Substitution Request Form.
(C) Substantiation. Any available data substantiating the proposed substitute as an
equal item or service must be submitted with the written request for substitution.
Contractor’s failure to timely provide all necessary substantiation, including any required
test results as soon as they are available, is grounds for rejection of the proposed
substitution, without further review.
(D) Burden of Proving Equality. Contractor has the burden of proving the equality
of the proposed substitution at Contractor’s sole cost, including testing using methods
acceptable to City. City has sole discretion to determine whether a proposed substitution
is equal, and City’s determination is final.
(E) Approval or Rejection. If the proposed substitution is approved, Contractor is
solely responsible for any additional costs or time associated with the substituted item or
service. If the proposed substitution is rejected, Contractor must, without delay, install the
item or use the service as specified by City.
(F) Contractor’s Obligations. City’s approval of a proposed substitution will not
relieve Contractor from any of its obligations under the Contract Documents. In the event
Contractor makes an unauthorized substitution, Contractor will be solely responsible for
all resulting cost impacts, including the cost of removal and replacement and the impact
to other design elements.
7.8 Inspection and Testing.
(A) General. All materials, equipment, and workmanship used in the Work are
subject to inspection and testing by City at all times and locations during construction
and/or fabrication and at any W orksite, including at shops and yards as well as at the
Project site, or at the plant of a manufacturer of materials or items to be incorporated into
the Work. All manufacturers’ application or installation instructions must be provided to
the Inspector at least ten days prior to the first such application or installation. Contractor
must, at all times, make the Work available for testing or inspection. Neither City’s
inspection or testing of Work, nor its failure to do so, operate to waive or limit Contractor’s
duty to complete the Work in accordance with the Contract Document.
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 59
(B) Scheduling and Notification. Contractor must cooperate with City in
coordinating the inspections and testing. Contractor must submit samples of materials, at
Contractor’s expense, and schedule all tests required by the Contract Documents in time
to avoid any delay to the progress of the Work. Contractor must notify the Engineer in
writing no later than two Working Days before any inspection or testing is being
requested, and must provide timely notice to the other necessary parties as specified in
the Contract Documents. If Contractor schedules an inspection or test beyond regular
Work hours, or on a Saturday, Sunday, or recognized City holiday, Contractor must seek,
in writing, Engineer’s approval at least two Working Days in advance. If approved,
Contractor must reimburse City for the cost of the overtime inspection or testing. Such
costs, including the City’s hourly costs for required personnel and Inspector, may be
deducted from payments otherwise due to Contractor.
(C) Responsibility for Costs. City will bear the initial cost of inspection and testing
to be performed by independent inspections and/or testing consultants retained by City,
subject to the following exceptions:
(1) Contractor will be responsible for the costs of any subsequent inspections
and/or tests which are required to substantiate compliance with the Contract
Documents, and any associated remediation costs.
(2) Contractor will be responsible for inspection and testing costs, at the rate
charged by the consultant retained by the City to provide inspection and testing
services, and for inspection and testing time lost because the Work is not ready
or Contractor fails to appear for a scheduled inspection.
(3) If any portion of the Work that is subject to inspection or testing is covered or
concealed by Contractor prior to the inspection or testing, Contractor will bear the
cost of making that portion of the Work available for the inspection or testing
required by the Contract Documents, and any associated repair or remediation
costs.
(4) Contractor is responsible for properly shoring all compaction test sites deeper
than five feet below grade, as required under Section 7.15 below.
(5) Any Work or material that is defective or fails to comply with the requirements
of the Contract Documents must be promptly repaired, removed, replaced, or
corrected by Contractor, at Contractor’s sole expense, even if that Work or
material was previously inspected or included in a progress payment.
(D) Contractor’s Obligations. All Work and materials must conform to the lines,
grades, typical cross sections, dimensions, material requirements, and tolerances shown
or described by the Plans and Specifications. City, acting in its sole discretion, will
determine whether Work or materials conform to the Plans and Specifications, including
allowable deviations. City’s determination as to conformity or allowable deviations is final.
Contractor is solely responsible for any delay occasioned by remediation of defective or
noncompliant Work or material. Inspection of the Work does not in any way relieve
Contractor of its obligations to perform the Work as specified. Any Work done without the
required inspection(s) will also be subject to rejection by City.
(E) Distant Locations. If required off-site testing or inspection must be conducted
at a location more than 100 miles from the Project site, Contractor is solely responsible
for the additional travel costs required for testing and/or inspection at such locations.

indicate existing above-grade and below-grade structures, drainage lines, storm drains,
sewers, water, gas, electrical, phone and data cable, and other similar items or utilities
known to the City, then Contractor will locate these known existing installat ions before
proceeding with trenching or other operations which may cause damage, will maintain
them in service where appropriate, and will repair any damage caused to them by the
Work, at no increase in the Contract Price.
(1) The Contractor may temporarily mark or paint the ground, pavement,
sidewalk, or any other improvements, but must not do so in a public right-of-way
or on the Site more than 30 days prior to the commencement of excavation work
performed in connection with an installation. Any mark or paint must be removed
from all surfaces, including any decorative work, within 30 days of the completion
of the excavation work. The Contractor is responsible for any expense
associated with damages caused by the Contractor’s mark or paint, including the
removal thereof.
(2) The Contractor will record the location and existence of pavement markers
and striping prior to construction, and will provide such records to the Engineer.
The Contractor will replace in kind any permanent paving marker or striping that
it removes or damages, or as marked in the Plans, at its expense.

Article 11 - Completion and Warranty Provisions
11.1 Final Completion.
(A) Final Inspection and Punch List. When the Work required by this Contract is
fully performed, Contractor must provide wr itten notification to City requesting final
inspection. The Engineer will schedule the date and time for final inspection, which must
include Contractor’s primary representative for this Project and its superintendent. Based
on that inspection, City will prepare a punch list of any items that are incomplete, missing,
defective, incorrectly installed, or otherwise not compliant with the Contract Documents.
The punch list to Contractor will specify the time by which all of the punch list items must
be completed or corrected. The punch list may include City’s estimated cost to complete
each punch list item if Contractor fails to do so within the specified time. The omission of
any non-compliant item from a punch list will not relieve Contractor from fulfilling all
requirements of the Contract Documents. Contractor’s failure to complete any punch list
item within the time specified in the punch list will not waive or abridge its warranty
obligations for any such items that must be completed by the City or by a third party
retained by the City due to Contractor’s failure to timely complete any such outstanding
item.
(B) Requirements for Final Completion. Final Completion will be achieved upon
completion or correction of all punch list items, as verified by City’s further inspection, and
upon satisfaction of all other Contract requirements, including any commissioning
required under the Contract Documents and submission of all final submittals,
instructions and manuals as required under Section 7.10, and complete, final as-built
drawings as required under Section 7.11, all to City’s satisfaction.
(C) Acceptance. The Project will be considered accepted upon City Council action
during a public meeting to accept the Project, unless the Engineer is authorized to accept
the Project, in which case the Project will be considered accepted upon the date of the
Engineer’s issuance of a written notice of acceptance. In order to avoid delay of Project
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 83
close out, the City may elect, acting in its sole discretion, to accept the Project as
complete subject to exceptions for punch list items that are not completed within the time
specified in the punch list.
(D) Final Payment and Release of Retention. Final Payment and release of
retention, less any sums withheld pursuant to the provisions of the Contract Documents,
will not be made sooner than 35 days after recordation of the notice of completion. If
Contractor fails to complete all of the punch list items within the specified time, City may
withhold up to 150% of City’s estimated cost to complete each of the remaining items
from Final Payment and may use the withheld retention to pay for the costs to self-
perform the outstanding items or to retain a third party to complete any such outstanding
punch list item.
11.2 Warranty.
(A) General. Contractor warrants that all materials and equipment will be new
unless otherwise specified, of good quality, in conformance with the Contract Documents,
and free from defective workmanship and materials. Contractor further warrants that the
Work will be free from material defects not intrinsic in the design or materials required in
the Contract Documents. Contractor warrants that materials or items incorporated into
the Work comply with the requirements and standards in the Contract Documents,
including compliance with Laws, and that any Hazardous Materials encountered or used
were handled as required by Laws. At City’s request, Contractor must furnish
satisfactory evidence of the quality and type of materials and equipment furnished.
Contractor’s warranty does not extend to damage caused by normal wear and tear, or
improper use or maintenance.
(B) Warranty Period. Contractor’s warranty must guarantee its Work for a period of
one year from the date of recordation of the notice of completion (the “Warranty Period”),
except when a longer guarantee is provided by a supplier or manufacturer or is required
by the Specifications or Special Conditions. Contractor must obtain from its
Subcontractors, suppliers and manufacturers any special or extended warranties required
by the Contract Documents.
(C) Warranty Documents. As a condition precedent to Final Completion,
Contractor must supply City with all warranty and guarantee documents relevant to
equipment and materials incorporated into the Work and guaranteed by their suppliers or
manufacturers.
(D) Subcontractors. The warranty obligations in the Contract Documents apply to
Work performed by Contractor and its Subcontractors, and Contractor agrees to be co-
guarantor of such Work.
(E) Contractor’s Obligations. Upon written notice from City to Contractor of any
defect in the Work discovered during the W arranty Period, Contractor or its responsible
Subcontractor must promptly correct the defective Work at its own cost. Contractor’s
obligation to correct defects discovered during the Warranty Period will continue past the
expiration of the W arranty Period as to any defects in Work for which Contractor was
notified prior to expiration of the W arranty Period. Work performed during the Warranty
Period (“Warranty Work”) will be subject to the warranty provisions in this Section 11.2 for
a one-year period that begins upon completion of such Warranty Work to City’s
satisfaction.
(F) City’s Remedies. If Contractor or its responsible Subcontractor fails to correct
defective Work within ten days following notice by City, or sooner if required by the
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 84
circumstances, Contractor expressly agrees that City may correct the defects to conform
with the Contract Documents at Contractor’s sole expense. Contractor must reimburse
City for its costs within 30 days following City’s submission of a demand(s) for payment
pursuant to this provision. If City is required to initiate legal action to compel Contractor’s
compliance with this provision, and City is the prevailing party in such action, Contractor
and its surety are solely responsible for all of City’s attorney’s fees and legal costs
expended to enforce Contractor’s warranty obligations herein in addition to any and all
costs City incurs to correct the defective Work.
(G) Emergency Repairs. In cases of emergency where any delay in correcting
defective Work could cause harm, loss or damage, Contractor expressly agrees that City
may immediately correct the defects to conform with the Contract Documents at
Contractor’s sole expense. Contractor or its surety must reimburse City for its costs within
30 days following City’s submission of a demand(s) for payment pursuant to this
provision. If City is required to initiate legal action to compel Contractor’s compliance with
this provision, and City is the prevailing party in such action, Contractor and its surety are
solely responsible for all of City’s attorney’s fees and legal costs expended to enforce
Contractor’s warranty obligations herein in addition to any and all costs City incurs to
immediately correct the defective Work, including any associated overtime charges.
11.3 Use Prior to Final Completion. City reserves the right to occupy or make use of the
Project, or any portions of the Project, prior to Final Completion if City has determined
that the Project or portion of it is in a condition suitable for the proposed occupation or
use, and that it is in its best interest to occupy or make use of the Project, or any portions
of it, prior to Final Completion. City will notify Contractor in writing of its intent to occupy
or make use of the Project or any portions of the Project, pursuant to this provision.
(A) Non-Waiver. Occupation or use of the Project, in whole or in part prior to Final
Completion will not operate as acceptance of the Work or any portion of it, nor will it
operate as a waiver of any of City’s rights or Contractor’s duties pursuant to these
Contract Documents, and will not affect nor bear on the determination of the time of
substantial completion with respect to any statute of repose pertaining to the time for
filing an action for construction defect.
(B) City’s Responsibility. City will be responsible for the cost of maintenance and
repairs due to normal wear and tear with respect to those portions of the Project that are
being occupied or used before Final Completion. The Contract Price or the Contract
Time may be adjusted pursuant to the applicable provisions of these Contract Documents
if, and only to the extent that, any occupation or use under this Section actually adds to
Contractor’s cost or time to complete the Work within the Contract Time.
11.4 Substantial Completion. For purposes of determining “substantial completion” with
respect to any statute of repose pertaining to the time for filing an action for construction
defect, “substantial completion” is deemed to mean the last date that Contractor or any
Subcontractor performs Work on the Project prior to recordation of the notice of
completion, except for warranty work performed under this Article.

cost-efficient administration of the Project. Any Claim that is not submitted
within the specified deadlines will be deemed waived by Contractor.
12.3 City’s Response. City will respond within 45 days of receipt of the Claim with a written
statement identifying which portion(s) of the Claim are disputed, unless the 45-day period
is extended by mutual agreement of City and Contractor or as otherwise allowed under
Public Contract Code section 9204. However, if City determines that the Claim is not
adequately substantiated pursuant to Section 12.2(A), Substantiation, City may first
request in writing, within 30 days of receipt of the Claim, any additional documentation
supporting the Claim or relating to defenses to the Claim that City may have against the
Claim. If Contractor fails to submit the additional documentation to City within 15 days of
receipt of City’s request, the Claim will be deemed waived.
(A) Additional Information. If additional information is thereafter required, it may be
requested and provided upon mutual agreement of City and Contractor. If Contractor’s
Claim is based on estimated amounts, Contractor has a continuing duty to update its
Claim as soon as possible with information on actual amounts in order to facilitate prompt
and fair resolution of the Claim.
(B) Non-Waiver. Any failure by City to respond within the times specified above will
not be construed as acceptance of the Claim in whole or in part, or as a waiver of any
provision of these Contract Documents.
12.4 Meet and Confer. If Contractor disputes City’s written response, or City fails to respond
within the specified time, within 15 days of receipt of City’s response, or within 15 days of
City’s failure to respond within the applicable 45-day time period under Section 12.3,
respectively, Contractor may notify City of the dispute in writing sent by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, and demand an informal conference to meet and

of the Claim remain in dispute, if any.
(D) Submission to Mediation. If the Claim or any portion remains in dispute following
the meet and confer conference, within ten working days after the City issues the written
statement identifying any portion(s) of the Claim remaining in dispute, the Contractor may
identify in writing disputed portion(s) of the Claim, which will be submitted for mediation,

interests. If there are multiple Claims in dispute, the parties may agree to schedule the
mediation to address all outstanding Claims at the same time. The parties will share the

separately responsible for its own cost to prepare for and participate in the mediation,
including costs for its legal counsel or any other consultants.
(B) Government Code Claims.

Contractor submits its written Claim pursuant to Section 12.2, above, until the
time that Claim is denied in whole or in part at the conclusion of the meet and
confer process, including any period of time used by the meet and confer
process. However, if the Claim is submitted to mediation, the time for filing a
Government Code Claim will be tolled until conclusion of the mediation, including
any continuations, if the Claim is not fully resolved by mutual agreement of the
parties during the mediation or any continuation of the mediation.
12.6 Tort Claims. This Article does not apply to tort claims and nothing in this Article is

Worksite; lost profits; loss of productivity; lost opportunity to work on other projects;
diminished bonding capacity; increased cost of financing for the Project; extended cap ital
costs; non-availability of labor, material or equipment due to delays; or any other indirect
loss arising from the Contract. The Eichleay Formula or similar formula will not be used
for any recovery under the Contract. The City will not be directly liable to any
Subcontractor or supplier.
12.9 Legal Proceedings. In any legal proceeding that involves enforcement of any
requirements of the Contract Documents, the finder of fact will receive detailed
instructions on the meaning and operation of the Contract Documents, including
conditions, limitations of liability, remedies, claim procedures, and other provisions
bearing on the defenses and theories of liability. Detailed findings of fact will be
requested to verify enforcement of the Contract Documents. All of the City's remedies
under the Contract Documents will be construed as cumulative, and not exclusive, and
the City reserves all rights to all remedies available under law or equity as to any dispute
arising from or relating to the Contract Documents or performance of the Work.
12.10 Other Disputes. The procedures in this Article 12 will apply to any and all disputes or
legal actions, in addition to Claims, arising from or related to this Contract, including
2019 CONTRACTUAL STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
GENERAL CONDITIONS
Project No. 2019-101 Page 89
disputes regarding suspension or early termination of the Contract, unless and only to the
extent that compliance with a procedural requirement is expressly and specifically waived
by City. Nothing in this Article is intended to delay suspension or termination under Article
13.
Article 13 - Suspension and Termination
13.1 Suspension for Cause. In addition to all other remedies available to City, if Contractor
fails to perform or correct W ork in accordance with the Contract Documents, including
non-compliance with applicable environmental or health and safety Laws, City may
immediately order the Work, or any portion of it, suspended until the circumstances giving
rise to the suspension have been eliminated to City’s satisfaction.
(A) Failure to Comply. Contractor will not be entitled to an increase in the Contract
Time or Contract Price for a suspension occasioned by Contractor’s failure to comply with
the Contract Documents.
(B) No Duty to Suspend. City’s right to suspend the Work will not give rise to a duty
to suspend the Work, and City’s failure to suspend the Work will not constitute a defense
to Contractor’s failure to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
13.2 Suspension for Convenience. City reserves the right to suspend, delay, or interrupt the
performance of the Work in whole or in part, for a period of time determined to be
appropriate for City’s convenience. Upon notice by City pursuant to this provision,
Contractor must immediately suspend, delay, or interrupt the Work and secure the
Project site as directed by City except for taking measures to protect completed or in
progress Work as directed in the suspension notice. The Contract Price and the Contract
Time will be equitably adjusted by Change Order pursuant to the terms of Article 5 and 6
to reflect the cost and delay impact occasioned by such suspension for convenience,
except to the extent that any such impacts were caused by Contractor’s failure to comply
with the Contract Documents or the terms of suspension notice.. However, the time for
completing the Project will only be extended if the suspension causes or will cause delay
in Final Completion. If Contractor disputes the terms of a Change Order issued for such
equitable adjustm ent due to suspension, its sole recourse is to comply with the Claim
procedures in Article 12.
13.3 Termination for Default. City may declare that Contractor is in default of the Contract
for a material breach of or inability to fully, promptly, or satisfactorily perform its
obligations under the Contract.
(A) Default. Events giving rise to a declaration of default include Contractor’s refusal
or failure to supply sufficient skilled workers, proper materials, or equipment to perform
the Work within the Contract Time; Contractor’s refusal or failure to make prompt
payment to its employees, Subcontractors, or suppliers or to correct defective W ork or
damage; Contractor’s failure to comply with Laws, or orders of any public agency with
jurisdiction over the Project; evidence of Contractor’s bankruptcy, insolvency, or lack of
financial capacity to complete the Work as required within the Contract Time; suspension,
revocation, or expiration and nonrenewal of Contractor’s license or DIR registration;
dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, or other major change in Contractor’s
organization, ownership, structure, or existence as a business entity; unauthorized
assignment of Contractor’s rights or duties under the Contract; or any material breach of
