For all contracts, the contractor and all subcontractors shall
be required to maintain adequate insurance coverage for the duration
of the contract. The City shall determine the types and amounts of
coverage that shall be required, as recommended by the City's insurance
consultants. The contractor shall have the City named as an additional
insured as its interest may appear and furnish the City with satisfactory
evidence of said insurance.
Once the bid/request for proposal document has been issued,
all questions regarding this document shall be submitted in writing
to the Purchasing Officer or issuing department/bureau. Any and all
addenda shall be issued by the Purchasing Officer or issuing department
or bureau pursuant to any alterations required in the bid document.
If it is determined that a bidder/offeror received an unfair advantage
from information obtained through other departments or agencies, the
bid or request for proposal may be canceled.
Procurement information shall be a public record subject to
the exceptions of disclosure to the extent provided in the Maine Freedom
of Information Act, and shall be available to the public as provided
by the City of Augusta policy implementing said Act.
