GUIDE FOR COMPLETING
THE “DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS” FORM
REFERENCES Prior to preparation of the following Subcontractor disclosure form Bidders are urged
to review the definitions in section 1-2 of the SSPWC (“Greenbook) and in the Supplemental
Provisions to this Contract, especially, “Bid”, “Bidder”, “Contract”, ‘Contractor”, “Contract Price”,
“Contract Unit Price”, “Engineer”, “Subcontractor” and ‘Work and the definitions in section 1 -2 of the
Supplemental Provisions especially “Own Organization.” Bidders are further urged to review sections
2-3 SUBCONTRACTS of the Greenbook and section 2-3.1 of these Supplemental Provisions.
CAUTIONS This form will be used by the Agency to determine the percentage of work that the
Bidder proposes to perform. Bidders are cautioned that failure to provide complete and correct
information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive. Any bid that proposes performance
of more than 50 percent of the work by subcontractors or otherwise to be preformed by forces other
than the Bidder’s own organization will be rejected as non-responsive. Specialty items of work that
may be so designated by the Engineer on the “Contractor’s Proposal” are not included in computing
the percentage of work proposed to be performed by the Bidder.
INSTRUCTIONS The Bidder shall set forth the name and location of business of each and every
subcontractor whom the Bidder proposes to perform work or labor or render service in or about the
work or improvement, and every subcontractor licensed as a contractor by the State of California
whom the Bidder proposes to specially fabricate and install any portion of the work or improvement
according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications in excess of one-half of one
percent (0.5%) of the Bidder’s total bid or, in the case of bids or offers for the construction of streets
and highways, including bridges, in excess of one-half of one percent (0.5%) or ten thousand dollars
($1 0,000) whichever is greater. Said name(s) and location(s) of business of subcontractor(s) shall be
set forth and included as an integral part of the bid offer.
c
The Designation of Subcontractors form must be submitted as a part of the Bidder’s sealed bid.
Failure to provide complete and correct information mav result in reiection of the bid as non-
responsive.
Suppliers of materials from sources outside the limits of work are not subcontractors. The value of
materials and transport of materials from sources outside the limits of work, as shown on the plans,
shall be assigned to the Contractor or the Subcontractor as the case may be, that the Bidder
proposes as installer of said materials. The value of material incorporated in any Subcontractor-
installed bid item that is supplied by the Bidder shall be included as a part of the work that the Bidder
proposes to be performed by the Subcontractor installing said item.
When a Subcontractor has a Carlsbad business license, the number must be entered on the proper
form. If the Subcontractor does not have a valid business license, enter “NONE” in the appropriate
space.
When the Bidder proposes using a Subcontractor to construct or install less than 100 percent of a
bid item, the Bidder shall attach an explanation sheet to the Designation of Subcontractor form. The
explanation sheet shall clearly apprise the City of the specific facts that show the Bidder proposes to
perform no less than fifty percent (50%) of the work with its own forces.
Determination of the subcontract amounts for purposes of award of the contract shall be determined _- by the City Council in conformance with the provisions of the contract documents and the
Supplemental Provisions. The decision of the City Council shall be final.

required information. The page number and total number of additional form pages shall be entered in the location provided on each type of form so duplicated.

not exceed the cost of plants in the original bid, and with the provision that the Contractor shall be
notified in writing, at least 60 days before the planting operation has commenced.
No plant shall be transported to the planting area that is not thoroughly wet throughout the ball of
earth surrounding the roots. Any plant that, in the opinion of the Engineer, has a damaged root ball
or is dry or in a wilted condition when delivered to the planting area will not be accepted, and shall be
replaced by the Contractor at the Contractor’s expense. Each plant shall be handled and packed in
the approved manner for that species or variety, and all necessary precautions shall be taken to
ensure that the plants will arrive at the site of the work in proper condition for successful growth.
Trucks used for transporting plants shall be equipped with covers to protect plants from windburn.
Root condition of plants furnished by the Contractor in containers will be determined by removal of
earth from the roots of not less than 2 plants nor more than 2 percent of the total number of plants of
each species or variety, except when container-grown plants are from several sources, the roots of
not less than 2 plants of each species or variety from each source will be inspected by the Engineer.
In case the sample plants inspected are found to be defective, the Agency reserves the right to
reject the entire lot or lots of plants represented by the defective samples. Any plants rendered
unsuitable for planting because of this inspection will be considered as samples and will not be paid
for.
