Introduction This set of guidelines is intended to provide direction and guidance on those contract arrangements and procedures for publicly- funded projects which are acceptable to public owners, the consulting professions and the construction industry. The Canadian Construction Document Committee (CCDC), 85 Albert Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1P 6A4 has prepared standard documents and guidelines that are widely used in the industry and which are in addition to these guidelines and believed by the Public Construction Council of British Columbia to be complementary to these guidelines. Since these guidelines might well be consulted by people and organizations with widely varying degrees of knowledge of construction industry practice, an attempt has been made to give both general background information as well as specific contract guideline considerations. Readers must be cautioned however, that there are many, many factors that may influence and affect appropriate or preferred contractual arrangements for any project. Some of these factors include the type of project, size of project, location, prevailing economic conditions, and other such matters. By necessity then, these guidelines simply set forth some but not necessarily all of the factors regarding the construction process that might be considered before embarking upon contractual arrangements. These documents are to be considered guidelines only, and cannot provide or be considered any form of assurance of contract award, expedited construction, administrative expediency nor trouble free contractual arrangements. Ever-changing conditions, laws, standards and practices affecting the industry militate against this. Nonetheless, it is hoped that these guidelines will assist the expedition of the complicated process of construction bidding and implementation. Acknowledgement This is the fifth edition of the document, "Procedures And Guidelines Recommended For Use On Publicly-Funded Construction Projects". It is produced by the Public Construction Council of British Columbia and updated as required. The Council is dedicated to providing a forum where issues involving both the purchasers and sellers of public sector construction in the province may be discussed openly and constructively for the benefit of both. The Council is not actively involved in the fields of Arbitration and Mediation. It is, however, capable of directing those who wish these services to parties who provide them. Enquiries should be directed to the General Secretary of the Public Construction Council. The Public Construction Council's Documents Committee acknowledges the input and assistance received from all members of the Council during the preparation of this document.

[ Top ] Tendering Procedures for Publicly-Funded Construction Projects 1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The major steps in a typical construction project are listed below in chronological order. 1.2 Public Owners The main emphasis of the public owner when purchasing construction is on the need for public accountability. Public accountability can be in many forms. Examples range from answering private citizen's requests for information to assuring participants in the bidding process of equitable procedures to a full public enquiry or litigation. All participants on publicly-funded projects must be aware that the process is open to pub lic investigation. The public owner is advised to choose forms of tendering and contract arrangements in which the method and criteria for choosing the successful bidder are clearly identified. This is usually the low bidder who has met the terms of the tender documents. It should be noted there is legal precedent against changing the terms of tendering arbitrarily once tenders have closed. In practice, both private and public owners use very similar methods of tendering and contract arrangements. [ Top ] 1.3 Purpose of Tendering The purpose of tendering is to get the best competitive price from all contractors who wish to submit a bid and are able to meet the terms of the contract. Tendering is an expensive process. It is not a method to obtain free estimates. Experience has shown that once contractors are aware of irregular tendering practices they may either not bid such projects or increase the amount of the bid to allow for increased costs. 1.4 Recommended Forms of Contract There are various methods and procedures of contracting which all have advantages in certain circumstances. The two recommended forms of contract for publicly-funded projects are the stipulated sum contract and the unit price contract.
This is the recommended type of contract for most public construction projects and is by far the most widely used. These guidelines are written largely on the basis of stipulated sum contracts. The owner and the owner's consultants de sign the project and prepare full contract documents prior to tendering. The project is then tendered and the contract is awarded to the low bidder meeting the requirements of the documents. The stipulated sum given by the general contractor becomes the cost of the work subject to changes to the scope of the work authorized by the client or the client's representative. Experience has shown that this form of contract is often faster than other forms as the contractor is able to fully plan and co-ordinate the work on commencement of construction. (2) Unit Price Contracts This is a form of contract usually used for engineering projects such as road building, bridges and dams where the actual conditions on the site may vary from the predicted conditions. The work is divided into a series of units. Each unit has a description of the work, an estimation of the quantity of work and a price. An example would be: Mass rock excavation 1000 m3 at $________ is $_________. A unit price contract may also contain lump sum items such as a complete structure where the design is complete and all information is shown on the drawings and specifications. The contractor gives a unit rate for each of the different categories. The calculated quantity is multiplied by the unit rate to give the price for each item. The unit rate includes all profits, overheads and other costs. The tendered contract sum is derived from the sum of all the items. The final cost of the contract is established by measuring the actual quantities encountered at the site and applying the contract unit rates to each of the different items. As economies of scale can create unfair pricing for both the owner or contractor if significant variations from the estimated quantities occur, both are usually protected by limiting the use of the unit price to a predetermined percentage variation from the quantities specified in the construction documents (typically 20%). Deviations beyond these percentage variations are subject to negotiation. The key to the success of this form of contract is to have proper investigations and design completed prior to tendering and giving detailed descriptions of the various items. This enables contractors to submit realistic bids and to reduce the unknown factors to a minimum. [ Top ] 1.5 Forms of Contract for Special Circumstances In some special circumstances there are procedures and forms of contract that may be preferred over the two previously recommended forms of contract. Each of these methods can and have been successful on public projects. However, they do require careful administration to avoid major problems and concerns on projects. The names given to these methods of contracting are not precise due in part to the numerous variations possible in the contract arrangements. (1) Cost Plus Contracts The contractor is paid the actual cost of labour and materials plus overhead and profit. Cost plus contracts are used in some special cases such as in an emergency where work is required immediately or where the scope of the work is difficult to determine. There are several versions of the system that generally relate to methods of determining acceptable costs, overhead costs and profits. While any form of contract can be successful it should be noted that cost plus contracts can be difficult to control. (2) Management Contracts There are two basic types of management projects:
(II) Construction Management where the manager manages only the tendering and construction section of the work. Management contracts can be used successfully on all construction contracts. However, they are more frequently used on contracts where the number of contractors able to bid the project is limited. The success of the system depends very much on the ability of the manager and in practice there are few qualified managers that specialize in this form of contract. Management contracts also tend to suffer from disputes, usually as the result of overlapping responsibilities of manager, consultants, and contractors. As there have been a number of major problems on publicly-funded projects, it is recommended that public owners obtain independent advice and carefully assess the other options prior to choosing any form of management contract. (3) Fast Track Contracts The term "fast track" means different things to different sectors of the industry. Basically, it is a method of sequencing the phases that attempts to expedite the construction of a project. Usually the construction starts be fore all aspects of the design are complete. An example would be where the excavation starts before the structural design is complete. Fast tracking is often used on commercial projects such as a manufacturing plant or shop ping centre where the building designs are fairly simple and comparative costs to other similar buildings are readily available. In addition, the construction costs of these types of buildings may be less important than the value of benefits of putting the facility into operation. There is a danger of compressing the design time as it often leads to requiring substantial changes being made to meet the owner's final design requirements. Fast tracking has a history of creating problems, cost overruns and disputes, and it has not always proven to be faster. (4) Design and Build Contracts This is a system whereby an owner acquires finished accommodation by requesting proposals from developers who usually have special knowledge and experience in the type of building required. The system generally works best for standard type buildings such as simple offices and warehouses. There is also merit in the owner leasing the space and making the developer responsible for the viability of the capital expenditures and building maintenance. Special buildings such as schools, hospitals and other single purpose public buildings are not suitable for developer proposal types of contract. 2. FRONT END DOCUMENTS
The first section of the Construction Documents outlines the contractual basis of a construction project and are known in the industry as the "Front End Documents". These sections of the specifications are usually based on standard documents which must be adjusted to suit the requirements of each project. Many of the items in the front end documents become very significant when disputes arise. Therefore, it is important that the contract be administered in accordance with the full understanding of these items. Failure to follow contract procedures may make special provisions void as the procedures actually being used may be accepted over the written contract in anylegal judgment. These guidelines give recommendations on the front end documents suitable for publicly-funded projects. 2.2 Contents [ Top ] 2.3 General Notes
Where feasible, tendering authorities are advised to ascertain what other projects are being advertised and the date when the tenders close. The closing of several projects close together may restrict bidding by general contractors, sub-contractors and suppliers. (2) Length of Tender Period Owners are advised not to try and save project time by unreasonably reducing the tendering time. If there is not sufficient time allocated for the tender period the general contractor may be unable to prepare the best tender possible. As a result the owner may pay a higher price for the building than is necessary. Tendering authorities should bear in mind that contractors and sub-contractors can not always start work on a tender on the day that documents are available. There fore, in a very short tender period it may be impossible for sub-contractors to obtain drawings and specifications. It must also be remembered that when the Bid Depository system is being used subtrade prices must be submitted to the Bid Depository not less than two working days before the general contractors' tenders close. For projects of less than $250,000, the tender period should be 2 - 3 weeks; for projects above that amount the minimum period should be 4 weeks. Large or complicated projects should be at least 6 weeks. (3) Irrevocable Tenders The tenderer, by submitting an irrevocable tender, agrees not to withdraw the tender for a specific period of time. This in effect makes the tender irrevocable from the time tenders are closed until the expiry of the stated period for acceptance. (4) Separate or Alternative Prices Where the scope of work is clearly de fined and sufficient budget flexibility exists to provide for tender price variations, it is recommended that separate and/or alternate prices not be used, these being the majority of construction contracts. In large projects, as most public owners are working within strict budget constraints, the inclusion of separate and/or al ternate prices may be necessary to provide a fair and competitive means of meeting, within the tender process, a specific budget. There are two procedures for obtaining these prices. The first method is where the separate and/or al ternate prices affect the base price and are considered in determining the low bid. In this case the low bidder is chosen by combining the base bid plus or minus the se par ate and/or alternate prices that are either accepted or rejected. This also means the low bidder may be determined by which combination of separate and/or alternatives are accepted, which can lead to allegations by the bidders of manipulation by the public owner. The second method used is where the low bidder is chosen on the base bid and the separate and/or alternative prices do not affect the selection procedure. This means the separate and/or alternate prices need not be competitive and can result in major variations in the prices quoted. The tender documents should clearly indicate which of the above two procedures is to be followed. Where separate and/or alternate prices that potentially involve multiple trades are part of the tender the following principles should be adopted: A tender process which allows adequate time prior to the submissions of bids, for the general contractor to estimate a price for the scope of work included in the alternate and/or separate price, must be provided. For this purpose the use of the British Columbia Construction Association Bid Depository system is recommended. A list of subtrades intended to be used by the general contractor for the base bid, separate prices and/or alternate prices must be provided as part of the tender submission. The tender authority must enforce the use of these subtrades to avoid what is often called "bid shopping". The use of separate and/or alternate prices should only be used to meet target budgets and should be restricted to no more than 10% of the tender price in total value. The use of separate and/or alternate prices as a shopping list is to be discouraged. [ Top ] (5) Unit Prices It is recommended that unit prices be limited to the civil engineering work of the construction project and that they be used in the manner shown on page 10. Again, pro per investigations, design and full description are essential to reduce the unknown factors. Where unit prices are used in conjunction with a stipulated sum contract and the work is not included in the base tender price, the documents should provide for the unit price and a specified quantity to be considered in determining the lowest complete price for the total job in the award of the contract. Where unit prices are used in conjunction with a stipulated sum contract and a specified quantity of work is included in the base tender price, the documents should provide for the unit price to be applicable only when the estimated quantities are exceeded. (6) Prequalification of Bidders The prequalification of bidders should not be used in publicly-funded projects without special reason. For example, where bidders must have special expertise, prequalification may be justified. It is recommended that the requirements of prequalification be specifically identified and that advertisements be placed re questing submission of qualifications prior to the bidding process. It should be noted that determining prequalification criteria and qualifications can be difficult and contentious. 2.4 The Documents
This should include statements on each of the following: [ Top ] 2.5 Contract Security On some projects tendering authorities may accept certified cheques or cash in lieu of a bid bond. Tendering authorities should be aware, however, that anyone with adequate financial re sources can provide cash or a certified cheque for contract security. Bonding companies, on the other hand, provide only to contractors they believe can perform the work. Therefore tendering authorities are assuming a greater risk in accepting cash or certified cheques rather than requiring bonding. When dealing with bonds the following guidelines are recommended: 2.6 Bid Depository
[ Top ] 2.7 General Instructions (1) Acceptance of Tenders (2) Equivalent Products (3) Qualification of Bidders (4) Clarification of Documents (5) Site Examination [ Top ] (6) Labour (7) Taxes (8) Insurance (9) Contract (10) Deposit
(11) Special Information
NOTE: As scheduling of work may add considerably to costs it is important to fully de scribe the scheduling of work. Clauses such as scheduling of work to be agreed with owner are not practicable. (Where the work is done to existing buildings it is often impractical to continue the operations within the buildings while building work is under way as even minor work can be disturbing to occupants). 3. FORM OF TENDER
Allow 3 lines for the name of the project. 3.2 Submitted By Allow 3 lines for the name, address and telephone number of the tenderer. 3.3 Submitted To The owner should enter his legal corporate name such as the name of the public society, crown corporation, ministry, etc. The tender should not be addressed to the administrator or any other person or group of people, e.g. "Gentlemen", or "Sir". It is the corporate body that will accept the successful tender and therefore must be the recipient of the tender. 3.4 Offer State the following: "The undersigned, having examined the Contract Documents as listed in the Instructions to Bidders and having a full knowledge of the locality and conditions affecting the Work, do hereby offer to complete the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents for the sum of ________________ ( ) in lawful money of Canada." This amount includes all cash allowances, contingencies, taxes and duties in force or announced at this date, except as otherwise provided in the tender documents. The Contract Documents should not be listed here. Usually, a list is used as part of a standard document for all tenders that a tendering authority may call and so may contain errors when applied to a specific contract. THE ABOVE ITEMS should all appear on page 1 of the Tender Form to permit easy reference at the opening of tenders. [ Top ] 3.5 Security State the following: "I enclose herewith a bid bond in accordance with CCDC 220, made out to __________ (name of Owner) ________ in the amount of ten percent (10%) of the tender issued by a company authorized to transact business in the Province of British Columbia." NOTE: There is no need to refer to the terms of the bond regarding failure to sign a contract or provide the required contract surety as these are stated on the bond. A letter of consent of surety is not to be specified and the bond is to be for ten percent of the tender, not for a specified amount of money. 3.6 Acceptance State the following: "If notified in writing by the Owner or its authorized representative of the acceptance of this tender within thirty (30) calendar days of the tender closing date we will commence the work within fifteen (15) days of such acceptance and: Execute the Form of Agreement of the Canadian Standard Construction Document - CCDC-2 1982 amended by the Supplementary General Conditions (or other Standard Form of Agreement); Provide the documents by Supplementary General Condition GC 14.1 - CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT:" If tenders are not to be Irrevocable, phrases such as "This tender will remain firm" or other similar phrases are not to be used. 3.7 Addenda State the following: "Acknowledgement is hereby made of receipt and inclusion of the following addenda to the Contract Documents:
Addendum No. ____ dated _____:_____ pages Addendum No. ____ dated _____:_____ pages Addendum No. ____ dated _____:_____ pages Addendum No. ____ dated _____:_____ pages" [ Top ] 3.8 Completion Date State the duration of construction in calendar days on the Tender Form. When the date of award is known, the actual date of completion will be filled in on the documents prior to signing. Where time is of the essence to the completion of the contract, bidders should be so informed in the Instructions to Bidders. Any requirement for extensions of time by either party must conform to CCDC2 re: notice provisions. Where the work is to be phased or completed in accordance with a schedule specified in the Instructions to Bidders a clause similar to the following is to be added: "Construction of the work will be carried out in the sequence stated in Section _____ of the Instructions to Bidders." 3.9 Conditions State the following:
(1) The addition to, or changing of, any words in this Form of Tender or the failure to comply with and complete all items may be cause for rejection without consideration of the Tender;" (2) If the tender is awarded, it is awarded to the lowest qualified bidder. It is not recommended that the superintendent be named at the time of tender submission as it is not a factor that will affect the award of the contract. It is recommended that the suitability of the superintendent be negotiated later. 3.11 Sub-contractors The tendering authority is to list the trades he requires to be named and also list separately the names of manufacturers of products, if required.
(1) The contractor may be required to show his capability of performing subtrade work shown as "Own Forces". (2) A clause to the effect that the contractor agrees to employ those sub-contractors listed by him in writing and accepted by the owner at the signing of the contract and sub-contractors or suppliers will not be changed without the written approval of the owner. 3.12 Signature To ensure that all parts of the tender are included in the signed document, the signature is to be on the last page of the tender. The following paragraph is to appear above the signature. "Where a Tenderer is a corporation the tender must be signed with the legal name of the corporation followed by the legal signature of an officer authorized to bind the corporation into contract. A certified copy of a resolution naming the person or persons as authorized to sign the Agreements for and on behalf of the Corporation shall be submitted to the Consultant if and when requested." The format for signing is to be as follows: Contractor's Registered Name and Address Signature of Legal Signing Authority ____________________________________ Witness' Legal Signature ___________________________________ Witness' Address ____________________________________ Signed this ___________ day of__________ Nineteen Hundred and _________________ 4. GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS This item is included due to concerns expressed by public owners and the construction industry over the problems that have occurred as a result of soil conditions, geotechnical investigations and designs that have not taken into account the site conditions. Soil conditions vary greatly in British Columbia and, in many cases, vary over short distances. It is, therefore, important that owners, prime consultants and contractors pay full attention to the conditions that can be expected. It is usual for the owner to pay for the geotechnical investigations directly but it is the prime consultant's responsibility to advise on the extent of investigations required. The prime consultants are advised to locate buildings and design to avoid problems wherever practical in order to reduce the risks and costs. It is also recommended that the geotechnical investigations report be included in the contract documents. [ Top ] 5. THE PUBLIC ADVERTISEMENT The public advertisement inviting contractors to bid should be placed in a trade journal that is distributed throughout the province such as the Journal of Commerce. In addition, advertisements should be placed in appropriate local newspapers. Advertising costs can be reduced by limiting the size of the advertisement to a single column and to standard print size. It is generally agreed the size of the advertisement in a trade journal is not a factor in how many people read the advertisement. The advertisement should contain the following from the Notice to Contractor.
6. THE TENDER PERIOD The Construction Industry The industry should seek approvals of equal products, etc. and request all clarification at an early date. This allows the owner and prime consultant to evaluate and issue the appropriate addenda in good time. The Owner and Consultant The owner and prime consultant should evaluate all re quests for approvals and clarification and issue addenda at an early date. Extensive addenda should be avoided, as experience has shown they complicate the bidding process. As all deposits received for tender documents are held in trust they should be either deposited in a separate account or the individual cheques stored in a secure place. Upon return of the documents in satisfactory condition the deposit is to be returned to the bidder. [ Top ] 7. COMPLETION OF TENDERS
8. RECEIVING OF TENDERS
9. OPENING OF TENDERS Tender opening shall at all times be formal, correct and well documented. Three tendering authority representatives should be the minimum number in attendance, one of whom should be the consultant.
(III) The opening of each tender is to commence and: 10. REVIEW OF TENDERS
Tenders that were opened are to be carefully analyzed for compliance with the contract documents. (II) Disqualifications Tenders should be rejected for any of the following reasons: 11. POST TENDER NEGOTIATIONS The tendering authority may negotiate changes to the document with the lowest qualified bidder in compliance with the following:
12. AWARD OF CONTRACT If the tender is not irrevocable it may be withdrawn prior to its acceptance in writing by the owner and the bid bond cannot be invoked. If it is withdrawn after acceptance in writing by the owner and the bidder refuses to sign it, the owner may then invoke the bid bond. If the owner has not accepted the tender within the stipulated period the price is no longer firm. If the owner wishes to award the contract after stipulated period has expired, he must obtain confirmation from the bidder in writing that the price in the tender is still valid and submit proof that the bonding requirement can still be fulfilled. The tender may be accepted in the first instance by a letter of award stating that the owner accepted the offer to do the work for the agreed amount and is pre pared to sign an agreement. The letter shall then be followed by the signed agreement. [ Top ] 13. CONTRACT STAGE Public funds may be spent directly by the public agency on their own contracts or the funds may be given in the form of grants or cost sharing to other agencies. It is important for all parties to be aware that wherever and however public funds are spent, the expenditures and contract procedures are open to scrutiny. It is therefore important to all parties of a construction contract to administer the contract properly with particular attention to the following points:
[ Top ] 14. ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROJECT The first step for accepting a construction project is for the contractor to request Substantial Performance. The owner's prime consultant then determines whether in fact this stage has been reached. Substantial Performance is an important stage under the Builders Lien Act. Once this stage has been reached, the placement of liens on the project is limited to not later than 31 days after the date of declaring Substantial Performance. The holdback fund is not to be released until 41 days after Substantial Performance. The liability of the owner meeting the requirements of the Builders Lien Act is limited to claims by the amount of the 10% holdback fund. It is, therefore, important to all parties to the contract that Substantial Performance be properly approved. The Builders Lien Act is not precise on the actual meaning of Substantial Performance and in event of a dispute, the courts would decide. It is generally understood that substantial performance is achieved when the building is ready for occupancy for the purpose for which it was intended. It is recommended, however, a definition of substantial performance should be included in the contract documents. [ Top ] STANDARD DOCUMENTS Pub.
