  5. 2010 C&MS 102.05 Continued… The Department is not obligated to respond to, or otherwise act upon, a Prebid Question submitted after this deadline, but reserves the right to act upon any information received.   2010 Conaway Conference

  6. 2010 C&MS 102.07  Notify the Department of errors and omissions in the Bid Documents.  Make notification by submitting a question in the manner described in 102.05.  The Contractor’s duty to disclose errors and omissions is not only a bidding requirement but is also a legal requirement that cannot be ignored. 2010 Conaway Conference

  7. 2010 C&MS 102.07  Continued… Failure to provide the required notification prior to the opening of bids shall constitute a waiver by the Contractor and does not obligate the Department for any costs based upon any apparent or patent ambiguity arising from insufficient data or obvious errors in the Bid documents.  Knowingly withholding information regarding an error or omission in the Bid Documents, or intentionally misrepresenting an item of Work for financial or competitive gain may result in civil or criminal penalties in excess of the value of the item bid. 2010 Conaway Conference

  8. 27-020 Prebid Policy  Policy Statement: The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is authorized to contract with the lowest competent and responsible bidder for work described by Bid Documents prepared for construction projects. All Bid documents become part of the contract between ODOT and the successful bidder, therefore, all information contained therein is deemed to be correct unless otherwise revised by addenda. Bidders are required to notify the Department of errors and omissions in the Bid Documents by the timely submission of a written Prebid Question. 2010 Conaway Conference

  9. 27-020 Prebid Policy  Policy Statement (Continued): An Addendum is used to make modifications to the Bid Documents including corrections when errors and omissions are discovered. Prebid Questions that only require the clarification of facts already in the Bid Documents do not require an Addendum, and may be answered in the form of a written response posted for public viewing and do not become a part of the contract. 2010 Conaway Conference
