among the Bidders, none of the bids of the participants in such collusion will be considered.
12. REJECTION OF BIDS. The BOROUGH reserves the right to reject any bid which is
nonresponsive, incomplete, obscure or irregular; any bid which omits any one or more items on
which the bids are required; any bid in which unit prices are unbalanced in the opinion of the

or finds discrepancies or omissions therein, he may submit to Contact person for the procurement
identified in the Invitation for Bids seven 7 days prior to the time announced for opening the
proposals for an interpretation or correction thereof. The person submitting the request shall be
responsible for its prompt delivery. Any interpretation or correction of the Contract Documents
will be made only by Addendum issued by the Borough Manager, which shall thereupon become
part of the Contract Documents and a copy of such Addendum will be sent by facsimile to each
person receiving a set of Contract Documents; however, responsibility shall rest solely with each

LANDFILL FRONT-END LOADER PROCUREMENT
15. BIDDERS INTERESTED IN MORE THAN ONE BID. No person, firm, or corporation
shall be allowed to make, or file, or be interested in more than one bid for the same work unless
alternate bids are specifically called for. A person, firm, or corporation that has submitted a sub -
proposal to a Bidder, or that has quoted prices or materials to a Bidder, is not thereby disqualified
from submitting a sub -proposal or quoting prices to other Bidders or making a prime proposal.
16. AWARD OF CONTRACT. The BOROUGH reserves the right to reject any or all bids,
waive any informalities or irregularity in the bidding and/or not make an award. The award of the
Contract, if made by the BOROUGH, will be made to the qualified and responsible Bidder
submitting the lowest responsive bid for the contracted work or item. The BOROUGH reserves
the right and shall determine in its own discretion whether a Bidder is responsible and qualified to
perform the Contract, and what bid is the lowest or in the best interest of the BOROUGH, including
the BOROUGH's right to consider the proposed form of manufacturer's warranty to be given by
the manufacturer to be used by a Bidder in making its determinations, and determine whether it
is to the best interest of the BOROUGH to accept the bid.
17. NON -COLLUSION AFFIDAVITS. Upon a specific request of the BOROUGH, the
Bidder, before the award of a Contract, shall submit non -collusion affidavits to the BOROUGH
covering the Bidder and all subcontractors.

or refuses to furnish, where required, performance and payment bond, or furnish, where required,
a worker's compensation and other insurance certificates or policies, or to execute the Agreement
as herein provided, such Bidder shall not be the lowest responsive Bidder. The BOROUGH may
then select the lowest responsive Bidder and deliver a notice of acceptance of Bid proposal to
such lowest responsive Bidder.
19. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS. No consideration will be given by the BOROUGH to
claim of error in a bid unless such claim is made to the BOROUGH within twenty-four (24) hours
after the time stated for receiving bids in the Notice to Contractors Inviting Bids, and unless
supporting evidence of such claim, including cost breakdown sheets, is delivered to the
BOROUGH within forty-eight (48) hours after the time stated for receiving bids in the Notice to
Contractors Inviting Bids. Relief may be granted only at the BOROUGH's discretion and in such
event only for clerical errors.
20. SIGNING. Each document signed by an attorney-in-fact shall be accompanied with a
copy of the power of attorney authorizing the attorney-in-fact. No agreement shall be binding
upon the BOROUGH until the same has been completely signed by the Contractor and also
signed on behalf of the BOROUGH. Failure to sign and return the required form of Agreement
and acceptable bonds and/or insurance certificates or policies as provided herein and the
Contract Documents within the time limit above specified may be just and sufficient cause for the
cancellation of the award and the forfeiture of the bid security.
LANDFILL FRONT-END LOADER PROCUREMENT
21. CANCELLATION OF AWARD. The BOROUGH reserves the right to cancel the
award without liability to the Bidder, except return of the bid security, at any time before the
Agreement has been fully signed by all parties, including the BOROUGH.

for the opening, or before both the award and execution of the agreement, unless the award is
delayed for a period in excess of sixty (60) days.

protest to the Borough Manager's Office. Protests will only be accepted based on error in process.
If/when a protest is received, an administrative review process will begin. The protestor can
expect a final administrative decision by the Kodiak Island Borough Manager within 30 working
days of the receipt of protest.
24. MINIMUN STANDARDS. The required work and/or specifications attached herein
shall be considered as the minimum standards acceptable to the BOROUGH. Any deviations,
modifications, or alternatives proposed shall be specified and clarified by the bidder in writing and
be identified as EXCEPTION SUMMARY. Insufficient information pertaining to exceptions shall
be at the bidders risk and may result in rejection of the bid.
25. EQUIPMENT FURNISHED. All equipment furnished under these specifications must
be complete with all necessary operating accessories and manuals customarily furnished,
whether stipulated herein or not.
Prior to final acceptance by the BOROUGH, the BOROUGH reserves the right to examine
the equipment/structures and test it accordingly, to assure compliance with bid and contract
requirements and specifications. Should the BOROUGH conduct such evaluations and the
results indicate that the equipment/structures do not conform, the successful bidder shall be
responsible to promptly correct such problems and/or replace said equipment in a timely manner
at no cost to the BOROUGH. After correction of any deficiencies the equipment/structures shall

class, that daily rental fee is determined to be $800.00.. The number of days for which liquidated damages
shall apply shall include, in the case of non -conforming goods, the time reasonably necessary for the State
to perform the inspection.
1.18 These liquidated damages represent a reasonable estimate of amounts necessary to compensate the State
for loss of use of the goods during the period in which the goods would have been available to the State if
conforming goods had been timely delivered.
EQUIPMENT RELIABILITY:
1.19 Reliability of equipment is of paramount importance to the State. It is the policy of SEF to require minimum
levels of reliability from owned or leased equipment for it to be considered acceptable. Equipment offered
for this bid must be capable of meeting the acceptable reliability standard stated below.
1.20 Acceptable Reliability: The State will monitor equipment reliability. Acceptable reliability for this contract is
achieved when a machine achieves or maintains a Reliability Ratio (RR) equal to or exceeding the following:
1.20.1 .90 (90 percent) PR during any consecutive 12 -months (365 days) during the warranty period.
1.20.2 .75 (75 percent) PR per operational month (recognizing operational as subject to weather and being
defined by calendar days) during the consecutive 12 -month period.
1.20.3 PR below the state percentages do not meet minimum reliability requirements for state-owned
equipment.
1.21 Machine Failure and Downtime:
1.21.1 Machine Failure is any and all loss of capability to perform fully, as specified, which is not attributed
to Conditioned Failure. Machine Failure resulting in the unit being out of service is defined as
Downtime.
1.21.2 Conditioned Failure is any Machine Failure attributable to accident, operator abuse or other
external cause not attributable to a defect in the machine Itself.
1.21.3 Downtime is the actual number of days or fractions of days that the equipment is in a state of
Machine Failure. Downtime does not count time used for scheduled maintenance (including
preventative maintenance and scheduled major overhauls), time lost for repair maintenance and
Section 1- Terms & Conditions
CA2111-18 Contract for Wheel Loaders
Page 2 of 14
SECTION I
TERMS & CONDITIONS
scheduled major overhauls, time lost for repair of damage as a result of operator abuse or machine
misapplication; or time lost as a result of an accident or an act of God. Downtime includes:
1.21.3.1 Actual shop hours (and/or field repair hours) required to return the unit to full
operational status following machine failure, Including troubleshooting, repair,
necessary replacement of parts, and necessary adjustments, plus
1.21.3.2 Time lost waiting for parts and/or vendor assistance. "Waiting downtime" also applies
if the need for parts/assistance is discovered during routine maintenance and return to
service is deemed counterproductive. In this case, "waiting time" clock begins with a
notice of the need to the vendor. Allowance may be considered in "waiting time"
calculations if the arrival of parts/assistance is delayed by transportation shutdown, to
include verifiable transportation scheduling difficulties such as infrequent Flights as long
as all reasonable alternatives have been exhausted. Parts and assistance are to be
provided by the quickest means reasonably possible to avoid unnecessary delays and
downtime.
1.21.4 Out of Service Report (OSR): Downtime resulting from machine failure is the actual number of
hours a machine is out of service as recorded on the OSR or in the Equipment Maintenance
Management System (EMS).
1.21.4.1 The State will record all downtime on an OSR or EMS work order, which will be
originated for each occurrence of downtime. The document will show the date and
time a unit went down, the location where the machine was based, the reason the
machine is down, date and time the vendor was notified (if applicable), the date and
time the machine was returned to service, and the total hours of downtime.
1.21.4.1.1 The Contract Manager will finalize and approve the OSR or EMS work
order. Both are available for contractor review.
1.21.5 Reporting Downtime: The Contracting Officer will maintain documentation of all Downtime, and
shall send copies of such documentation to the contractor.
1.21.6 Calculation of Reliability Ratio: RR is the mathematical ration of operating time (uptime) to out of
service time (downtime). The RR will be calculated according to the following formula:
RR = Days in a Month — Days Out of Service* = DM - DO
Days in a Month " DM
Note*: Fractional Days apply, i.e., a unit is out of service 8 hours in a
24 hour period equals 1/3 or .33% of a day.
Note `•: A day is allocated as 24 consecutive hours from 12:00 AM to
12:00 PM.
Example: 30 days DM with 2 days and 8 hours DT would result in:
RR = 30 - 2.33 = .92
30
1.21.7 Unacceptable Reliability: If an item of equipment fails to perform at an acceptable level of reliability
during the warranty period, the Contracting Officer will notify the contractor and request an
immediate remedy. Failure to remedy the piece of equipment within 30 days for failure will result
in a breach of contract and the immediate return of the equipment and reimbursement of the
Guaranteed Value (V) of the unit:
Original Cost of the unit less (-) Freight = $ (V)
Guaranteed Value (V) less (-) the Cost of Operation as listed in the Equipment Rental Rate Blue
Book or comparable equipment or the current Federal Fixed Usage Rate for the Class for the State
of Alaska (a, b or c per hour) times (X) the number of hours used = (DV).
a. Example: Cost of a single unit, less freight = $150,000. The hourly cost is $150.00 per
hour. The unit was used 150 hours prior to failing the acceptable reliability. The contractor
guarantees the unit's worth at $127,500.00.
1.21.8 Prior to return, the State will correct all reasonable cosmetic deficiencies (such as excessive rust)
and those deficiencies that are directly related to damage due to accidents, misuse of equipment
or failure to operate or maintain equipment as prescribed by the vendor/manufacturer, prior to the
public auction.
1.21.9 The tires will be serviceable with at least 50% remaining thread.
1.21.10 Oil samples, as per manufacturer's service manual recommendations, will be taken by State of
Alaska maintenance personnel on the engine, transmission, differentials, and hydraulics.
1.21.11 In the case of dispute, at the expense of the State, a qualified agent from Northern Adjusters, Inc.
or another professionally recognized appraiser may be commissioned for an independent claim
