What is one form that may be included in the bid process?

The invitation to bid is a critical component of the bidding process as it serves as the formal solicitation for contractors to submit their proposals for a project. This document outlines important information regarding the project, including specifications, scope of work, submission requirements, and deadlines. By providing these details, the invitation ensures that all bidders have a clear understanding of what is expected, which promotes fair competition and enables accurate pricing. This document also helps in attracting potential bidders who are qualified and capable of performing the work according to the project’s requirements.

Other forms in the construction process, such as certificates of substantial completion or performance review records, relate to different stages of a project or oversight rather than the initial bidding process itself. Supplemental insurance policies may be relevant to contractor requirements but wouldn’t typically be part of the invitation for bids.
