Inspection and acceptance of work will be performed by the City, with risk of loss retained by the contractor until formal acceptance at the project site. The contract includes multiple clauses addressing warranties, payments, contract amendments, and required certifications related to compliance with immigration law and anti-lobbying.

Performance and payment bonds, each at 100% of the contract value, are mandatory, with the surety required to be listed on the Treasury Department’s approved list. Key personnel must be disclosed and may not be replaced without notice. Evaluation is based on a best-value trade-off process considering technical capabilities, compliance history, and financial capacity, rather than lowest price alone.

All deliverables and intellectual property rights belong exclusively to the City, and the contractor must maintain proper licenses, permits, and insurance throughout the contract term.
