Box 616, Quitman, Mississippi, until 10:00 am local time on Monday, April 18, 2022, for supplying all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for construction of the 2021 Court House ADA Improvement Project.
The work generally consists of an ADA accessibility project with exterior renovations of the Clarke County Court House in Quitman, Mississippi such as parking areas, access ramps, railings, and automatic doors.
The above general outline of features of the work does not in any way limit the responsibility of the Contractor to perform all work and furnish all plant, labor, equipment and materials required by the specifications and the drawings referred to therein.
Contract time shall be 120 consecutive calendar days from the effective date shown in the Notice to Proceed. Liquidated damages will be assessed in the amount of the actual costs incurred for each consecutive calendar day beyond the specified contract time. Special Damages: In addition to the amounts provided for liquidated damages, expenses, and other losses, the Contractor, in the event of such default, shall pay to the Owner the actual costs, expenses, and other losses reasonably incurred by Owner.
Bidder must be qualified under Mississippi Law and show a current Certificate of Responsibility issued by the Mississippi State Board of Public Contractors establishing his classification as to the value and type of construction on which he is authorized to bid. Each Bidder shall write his Certificate of Responsibility Number on the outside of the sealed envelope containing his proposal.

The Statement of Qualifications shall list past projects of similar size and nature, a list of references with name and telephone numbers, a list of key personnel who will perform the work, and other information supporting the Bidder’s qualifications.
Awarding public contracts to non-resident Bidders will be on the same basis as the non-resident Bidder’s state awards contracts to Mississippi Contractors bidding under similar circumstances. In order to ensure that Mississippi’s so-called Golden Rule is followed state law requires a non-resident bidder to attach to his bid a copy of his resident state’s current laws pertaining to such state’s treatment of non-resident contractors.
Each Bidder must deposit with his proposal, a Bid Bond or Certified Check in an amount equal to five percent of his bid, payable to the County of Clarke, Mississippi, as bid security.
The successful bidder will be required to furnish a Payment Bond and Performance Bond each in the amount of 100 percent of the contract amount.

Minority and women’s business enterprises are solicited to bid on this contract as prime contractors and are encouraged to make inquiries regarding potential subcontracting opportunities, equipment, material and/or supply needs.
