  13. Small Works Roster • SWR bid opportunities are sent to contractors according to project type and location. • It is important for contractors keep information up to date.

  15. Job Order Contracts • JOC contracts (cont.): • Each JOC has a limit of $4 million per year of work they can perform. • JOC can only perform 10% of the work with the remaining 90% of work subcontracted out.

  16. Bid Openings • Follow the Instructions to Bidders in the documents carefully • Bid Bond or Bid Security is required • Other details: - Acknowledge any addenda - List major subcontractors - Sign the bid - Be on time

  17. Contractor’s License • Bidders must have a current state of Washington contractor’s license. • Some specialties require special licenses.

  18. Performance Bond • A 100% Payment and Performance bond is required. • An exception can be made for projects less than $35,000. • The performance bond must be submitted before the state will sign the construction contract.

  19. Insurance • A minimum level of liability insurance will be specified in the bid documents. • Contractors must submit a certificate of insurance before the state will sign the contract.
