18. Preference for Materials and Submissions

a. One Product Specified. Unless the Plans and Specifications state that no Substitution ispermitted, whenever the Contract Documents indicate any specific article, device, equipment, product, material, fixture, patented process, form, method, construction, or any specific name, make, trade name, or catalog number, with or without the words, “or equal,” such specification shall be read as if the language “or equal” is incorporated.

b. Request for Submission. Bidder may, unless otherwise stated, offer any material, process,article, etc., which is materially equal or better in every respect to that so indicated or specified (“Specified Item”) and will completely accomplish the purpose of the Contract Document. If bidder desires to offer a Substitution for a Specified Item, such bidder must make a request in writing on the District’s Substitution Request Form (“Request Form”) and submit the completed Request Form with the bidder’s bid. The Request Form must be accompanied by evidence as to whether the proposed substitution:

1) Is equal in quality, service, and ability to the Specified Item as demonstrated by a sideby side comparison of key characteristics and performance criteria.

2) Will entail no changes in detail, construction and scheduling of related work;3) Will be acceptable in consideration of the required design and artistic effect;4) Will provide no cost disadvantage to the District;5) Will require no excessive or more expensive maintenance, including adequacy and

availability of replacement parts; and6) Will require no change in the Contract Time.

In completing the Request Form, bidder must state with respect to each requested substitution whether bidder will agree to provide the Specified Item in the event that the District denies bidder’s request for substitution of a Specified Item. In the event that a bidder does not agree in the Request Form to provide the Specified Item and the District denies the requested Substitution, the bidder’s bid shall be considered non-responsive and the District may award the Contract to the next lowest bidder or in its sole discretion, release all bidders. In the event that the bidder has agreed in the Request Form to provide the Specified Item and the District denies bidder’s requested substitution for a Specified Item, bidder shall execute the Agreement and provide the Specified Item without any additional cost or charge to the District, and if bidder fails to execute the Agreement with the Specified Item(s), bidder’s bid bond will be forfeited.

After the bids are opened, the apparent lowest bidder shall provide, within five (5) calendar days of opening such bids, any and all Drawings, specification, samples, performance data, calculations, and other information as may be required to assist the Architect and the District in determining whether the proposed substitution is acceptable. The burden of establishing these facts shall be upon the bidder.

After the District’s receipt of such evidence by bidder, the District will make its final decisions to whether the bidder’s request for Substitution for any Specified Items will be granted. The District shall have sole discretion in deciding as to whether a proposed request for Substitution is equal to or better than a Specified Item. Any request for Substitution which is granted by the District shall be documented and processed through a Change Order. The District may condition its approval of any Substitution upon delivery to the District of an extended warranty or other assurances of adequate performance of the Substitution. Any and all risks of delay due to DSA, or any other governmental agency having jurisdiction shall be on the bidder.

19. Disqualification of Bidders and Proposals. More than one proposal for the same work from anyindividual, firm, partnership, corporation, or association under the same or different names will not beaccepted: and reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder is interested in more than one proposal forthe work will be cause for rejecting all proposals in which such bidder is interested and the bidder willforfeit their bid security to the District.

20. Unbalanced or Altered Bids. Proposals in which the prices are obviously unbalanced, and thosewhich are incomplete or show any alteration of form, or contain any additions or conditional or alternatebids that are not called for or otherwise permitted, may be rejected. A proposal on which the signature of thebidder has been omitted may be rejected. If, in the District’s sole discretion, it determines any pricing, costsor other information submitted by a bidder may result in an unbalanced bid, the District may deem such bidnon-responsive. A bid may be determined by the District to be unbalanced if the bid is based on pricessignificantly less than cost of some work and prices which are significantly overstated in relation to cost forother work, and if there is a reasonable doubt that the bid will result in the lowest overall cost to the Districteven though it may be the low evaluated bid, or if it is so unbalanced as to tantamount to allowing andadvance payment.

21. Employment of Apprentices. The Contractor and all Subcontractors shall comply with theprovisions of California Labor Code including, but not limited to Sections 1777.5, 1777.6, and 1777.7concerning the employment of apprentices.
