Common use of Prequalification Rating Clause in Contracts

Prequalification Rating. The Trustees shall issue an RFP only to Proposers who have prequalified with the Trustees (Public Contract Code section 10764). The Trustees shall disregard any proposal received either from a Proposer that is not currently prequalified or from a Proposer that is prequalified but the rating is not high enough to accommodate its proposal. Although this prequalification permits participation in the submitting of a proposal for the Project, it does not mean that the proposer satisfies the requirements of being a “responsible” bidder. This determination occurs later in the process (see Article 32.09, Failure to be a Responsible Bidder). 2.3. Necessity for Careful Examination of Site, Plans, and Specifications The Licensee and trade contractors shall carefully examine the Site, the plans, and specifications for the Project, and shall investigate and be satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered, the character and quantity of surface and subsurface materials or obstacles to be encountered, rights of way and easements at or near the Site, the Work to be performed, and materials to be furnished and as to the requirements of the proposal, plans, and specifications for the Project. See Article 36.11, Responsibility to Secure and Pay for Permits, Licenses, Utility Connections, Etc. Bidder certifies that Bidder has complied with the requirements of this provision by the submission of its bid. Any failure by the Licensee and trade contractors to acquaint themselves with information that is available or with reasonable investigation may be available will not relieve them from responsibility to properly estimate the difficulty or cost to perform the Work. Such examination does not require independent underground soil borings unless required elsewhere in the Contract Documents. A. Subsurface Investigations. Where the Trustees have made investigations of subsurface conditions and have made that information available to the Licensee, such information is limited in scope to that which has been actually encountered in the investigations, and is included only for the convenience of the Licensee. The Trustees assume no responsibility whatsoever in respect to the sufficiency or accuracy of borings or of the log of test borings or other preliminary investigations or any interpretation of the above. There is no guarantee or warranty, either expressed or implied, that the conditions indicated are representative of those existing throughout the site or that unforeseen conditions or developments may not occur. Making such information available to the Licensee is not to be construed in any way as a waiver of this provision. The Licensee must satisfy itself through its own investigations as to the actual conditions to be encountered.
