of this Addendum shall take precedence. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Addendum, the terms and
conditions of the Contract Documents shall remain unmodified.

Article A1 – Additional Contractor Duties and Responsibilities

In addition to the rights, duties and obligations set forth elsewhere in the Contract Documents, Contractor shall have
the additional rights, duties, obligations and responsibilities set forth in this Article A1, as follows:

         A1.1     Contractor shall pay all laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the Work,
                  unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on
                  any account, the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof)
                  computed at rates not less than those established for each job classification by the United States
                  Secretary of Labor for the “Building” category in DeKalb County, Georgia, as of the date of the
                  Contract. This determination is currently known as the “GA20220126” rate, as the same may be
                  amended or modified from time to time. (The rate schedules may be obtained by visiting the
                  Department of Labor’s website at http://www.wdol.gov/dba.aspx.) Any class of laborers or
                  mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and is to be employed
                  on the Work, shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination.

         A1.2     Owner shall, on its own or upon the written request of an authorized representative of the U.S.
                  Department of Labor, be entitled to withhold or cause to be withheld from payments to Contractor,
                  so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be necessary to pay laborers and mechanics
                  employed by Contractor or any Subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the Contract. In
                  the event of a failure to pay any laborer or mechanic all or part of the wages required by the Contract,
                  Owner may, after written notice to Contractor, suspend any further payments to Contractor until such
                  violations have ceased.

         A1.3     Contractor shall maintain all payrolls and basic records relating thereto during the course of the Work
                  and for a period of three (3) years after Final Completion. Such records shall contain the name,
                  address and social security number of each worker, his classification, the hourly rate of wages paid
                  (and fringe benefits), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages
                  paid. Contractor shall also maintain all records related to any fringe benefit plan or program during
                  the course of the Work and for a period of three (3) years after Final Completion.

         A1.4     Contractor shall submit to Owner weekly a report containing a copy of all payrolls (including
                  Subcontractor payrolls), which shall set forth the information required by Section A1.3. Each report
                  shall be accompanied by a “Statement of Compliance” signed by Contractor or the Subcontractor
                  (as the case may be) which certifies the following:

                           (a)      that the payroll contains the information required by 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(a)(3)(ii), that
                                    the information is being maintained in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(a)(3)(i)
                                    and that all such information is correct and complete;

                          (b)       that each laborer employed on the Work has been paid the full weekly wages
                                    earned, without rebate, and that no deductions have been made except as
                                    required by law; and
                          (c)       that each laborer has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and
                                    fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed.

                 In complying with the reporting and certification requirements provided hereunder, Contractor is
                 encouraged (but is not required) to use U.S. Department of Labor Form WH-347.

                 Falsification of such information, records or certifications may subject Contractor or Subcontractors
                 to civil or criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. § 1001 and 31 U.S.C. § 231.

                 Contractor and all Subcontractors shall make all records required hereunder available for inspection,
                 copying or transcription by Owner or the U.S. Department of Labor, and shall permit them to interview
                 employees during working hours.

        A1.5     Contractor and Subcontractors shall be permitted to pay apprentices or trainees at less than the
                 predetermined rate; provided, however, that such apprentices and trainees are employed pursuant
                 to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship or trainee program registered with the
                 U.S. Department of Labor or with a state apprenticeship agency recognized by the U.S. Department
                 of Labor.

        A1.6     Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 C.F.R. part 3, which are incorporated into this
                 Contract by reference.

        A1.7     Contractor shall insert all clauses contained in this Article A1 in all subcontracts with Subcontractors.

        A1.8     Upon the breach of any of the clauses contained in this Article A1, Owner shall have the right to
                 terminate the Contract “for cause”.

        A1.9     Contractor shall comply with the Davis-Bacon Act, 40 U.S.C. § 276a et seq. and all regulations
                 promulgated thereunder, which are incorporated into the Contract by reference.

        A1.10    Disputes arising out of the provisions of this Article A1 shall not be subject to the general dispute
                 resolution procedures contained in the Contract Documents, but shall be resolved in accordance
                 with the procedures set forth in 29 C.F.R. parts 5-7.

        A1.11    By entering into the Contract, Contractor certifies that neither it nor any person or firm who has an
                 interest in Contractor is ineligible to be awarded contracts by virtue of Section 3(a) of the Davis-
                 Bacon Act or 29 C.F.R. § 5.12(a)(1).

        A1.12    Contractor and Subcontractors shall keep posted on the Work site, in a prominent and accessible
                 location where it can easily be seen at all times, U.S. Department of Labor poster WH-1321.

        A1.13    Contractor and Subcontractors shall not permit any laborers or mechanics to perform work on the
                 Project in excess of forty (40) hours in any work week unless such laborer or mechanic receives
                 compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate for all hours worked in
                 excess of forty (40) hours per week.

                 In the event of any violation of this Section A1.13, Contractor and any Subcontractor responsible
                 therefore shall be liable for the unpaid wages and subject to liquidated damages to be assessed by
                 the U.S. Department of Labor as set forth in 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(b)(2).

         conditions, and shall at once report to the Owner any errors, inconsistencies or ambiguities in the Proposal

         Documents will be made by Addendum. No oral interpretations will be made to Contractor as to meaning of

         communication, or attempted communication, by a Contractor or its agents concerning this Request for
         Proposals by any means or method other than that provided for in this Request for Proposals shall be
         inappropriate. In the event of such inappropriate communication, or attempted communication, the Owner
         shall have the right to reject such offending Offeror’s Proposal.

         approval shall explain fully the difference, if any, between the proposed product and the one or more named
         in the specifications, including difference in cost. A statement setting forth changes in other materials,
         equipment or other portions of the Work including changes in the work of other contracts that incorporation
         of the proposed substitution would require shall be included in the request. The burden of proof of the merit
         of the proposed substitution is upon the proposer. The Owner’s decision of approval or disapproval of a
         proposed substitution shall be final.

         If the Owner approves a proposed substitution prior to the date for receipt of Proposals, such approval will be
         set forth in an Addendum. Contractors shall not rely upon approvals made in any other manner.

         Documents.

11.      WITHDRAWAL OF PROPOSALS:

         Except as may be otherwise expressly provided by law, a Contractor’s Proposal cannot be withdrawn after it
         has been electronically submitted at http://www.dekalbschoolsga.ionwave.net, for a period of ninety (90)
         calendar days after the date fixed for receiving said Proposals, and all Proposals are subject to acceptance
         by the Owner during said period, and each Offeror so agrees by submitting a Proposal.

12.      BACKGROUND CHECKS:

         A criminal background check must be performed on all contractors, consultants, subcontractors, volunteers
         and vendors (hereinafter jointly referred to as "Individuals") who provide services on DCSD premises,
         supervise services on DCSD premises, or has contact with students. These Individuals shall undergo the
         same criminal background check, within the last 365 days, as required by DCSD employees. Such
         background checks will be performed by DCSD at the expense of the Individual at a cost of $45.00 per
         individual. Additionally, any charges against the Individual, may be deemed unacceptable in DCSD’s sole
         discretion regardless of whether dismissed, expunged, sealed, removed from the record, treated as a “first
         offender” or dead docketed. Upon receipt and evaluation of DCSD’s background check results, DCSD may
         demand that the Individual have no contact with DCSD students, parents, or provide services to DCSD
         premises. Any failure of the contractor to obtain a criminal records background check through DCSD, as
         stated herein, may result in termination of any resulting contract between contractor and DCSD

        In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, bidders must submit a proposed fixed price for each project to

        the contract will be reduced by any days that exceed the total of five (5) business days identified in Section
        12.0. Notice to Proceed (NTP) with the final executed contract and a revised schedule, if appropriate, shall
        be issued to the Contractor upon receipt of all documents.
        After evaluation of the Proposals received in response to the RFP, DeKalb County School District may
        interview two or more proposers deemed fully qualified, responsive, responsible and suitable on the basis of
        initial responses, and with professional competence to provide the required services. DCSD is under no
        obligation to perform interviews for this RFP.
        At the conclusion of the interviews, if they are held, and on the basis of evaluation factors set forth in Section
        VI and the information provided and developed in the selection process to this point, DeKalb County School
        District Selection Committee shall rank, in the order of preference and begin negotiations with the firm whose
        proposal is determined to be most advantageous to the Owner. If a contract satisfactory and advantageous
        to DeKalb County School District cannot be negotiated, then the Owner reserves the right to automatically,
        without notification, terminate such negotiations and enter into negotiations with the second most qualified
        firm. Failing accord with the second most qualified firm, DCSD shall terminate negotiations and enter into
        negotiations with the third most qualified firm. Should DCSD be unable to negotiate a contract at a fair and
        reasonable price with any of the top three selected firms, the selection committee shall select additional firms
        in order of their rankings, and DCSD shall continue negotiations until an agreement is reached.

15.      QUALIFICATIONS OF BIDDERS:

         15.1    The Owner, before Contract award, will require Bidder to document that they are “responsible” to the
                 satisfaction of the Owner. They will thus be required to show that they have the necessary facilities,
                 technical ability, licenses, and financial resources to execute the Services and the Work in a
                 satisfactory manner, and within the time specified; that they have had experience in the Services and
                 Work of a similar nature; and that they have past history and references which will verify their
                 qualifications for executing the Services and the Work. The Owner shall have the right to make such
                 additional inquiry as it deems necessary to determine the ability of the Bidder to perform the Services
                 and the Work in a prompt and efficient matter in accordance with the Contract Documents. The
                 failure of a Bidder to promptly supply information in connection with the Owner’s inquiry shall be
                 grounds for a determination that such Bidder is not responsive, not responsible, or both. In
                 determining the qualifications and responsibility of the Bidder, the Owner may take into consideration
                 any and all relevant facts and circumstances available to it including, but not limited to, the Bidder’s
                 experience, capacity, facilities, previous work standing with DCSD, financial standing, skill, available
                 supervisory personnel, available labor, current volume of work being performed for DCSD at the time
                 of this procurement process, quality and efficiency of construction plant and equipment proposed to
                 be utilized on the Project. The Owner shall have the right to reject the Proposal of any Bidder failing
                 to show to the satisfaction of the Owner the Bidder could perform the Services and the Work in a
                 prompt and efficient manner in accordance with the Contract Documents. Bidder’s may be afforded
                 an opportunity for discussion, negotiation and revision of Proposals for the purpose of obtaining best
                 and final offers. In the event the Owner deems it necessary or appropriate, responsible Bidder’s
                 found by the Owner to have submitted Proposals reasonably susceptible of being selected for award
                 shall be given an opportunity to participate in such discussions, negotiations and revisions.

         15.2    Bidder must be a licensed Roofing Contractor of the class required by Georgia Statues for executing
                 the work being bid.

         15.3    Bidder must be a Roofing Contractor with at least 10 years of contracting experience in the type of
                 work involved in this Project, and must have performed work similar in size and scope to the work

16.      OWNER’S CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT CONTRACT FORM:

         Included and made a part of this RFP is the Owner’s Standard Form of Fixed Price Construction Contract
         (the “Agreement” or the “Contract”). Contractors are responsible for the review of this document in the
         preparation of their Proposals. The successful Contractor shall comply with all insurance requirements set
         forth in the Agreement and any other Contract Documents, and the Contractor’s attention is directed to the
         insurance exhibit to the Agreement. These insurance requirements shall be considered in the preparation of
         the Contractor’s Proposal.

17.     COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION:

         The Contractor will be required to commence its services under the Owner’s form of Agreement immediately
         after its receipt of a written Notice-to-Proceed from the Owner and to prosecute the effort with competence,
         faithfulness and energy.

18.     BID BOND:

         The Contractor’s Proposal shall be accompanied by a Bid Bond in the exact form set forth herein. The Bid
         Bond shall be in an amount not less than $250,000.00. The amount stated in the Bid Bond shall be
         included as an exact dollar figure written in numeric and word form. Failure to do so shall result in
         your proposal being deemed non-responsive. A Bid Bond submitted using an AIA document is
         unacceptable and shall result in your proposal being deemed non-responsive. The attorney-in-fact
         who executes the Bid Bond on behalf of the surety shall affix to the Bid Bond a certified and current power
         of attorney. The surety must be satisfactory to the Owner, and must be licensed to do business in Georgia
         as approved by the State Insurance Commissioner’s Office. No other form of bid security will be accepted.
         The Owner shall have the right to retain the Bid Bond of all Contractor’s until either (a) the Agreement has
         been executed and a satisfactory Payment Bond and Performance Bond have been furnished, or (b) ninety
         (90) days after Proposal opening, or (c) all Proposals have been rejected. Except as otherwise expressly
         allowed by law, no Proposal may be withdrawn for a period of ninety (90) days following the closing time and
         date for receipt of Proposals, and all Proposals are subject to acceptance by the Owner during said period,
         and each Contractor so agrees by submitting a Proposal.

19.     AFFIDAVIT:

        As a part of the response to this RFP, the Contractor shall submit with its proposal an affidavit in the form of
        the Offeror’s and Individuals’ Affidavit of Non-collusion included in the Proposal Documents as Attachment D.
        If the proposing Contractor is a partnership, all of the partners and any officer, agent, or other person who
        intend to represent or act for them in proposing for or procuring the Contract for the Project shall also sign the
        affidavit. If the proposing Contractor is a corporation or other entity, all officers, agents, or other persons who
        intend to act for or represent the corporation or other entity in proposing for or procuring the Contract for the
        Project shall also sign the affidavit.

        The Subcontractor’s Affidavit of Non-collusion is included with the Proposal Documents as Appendix F. Not
        later than simultaneously with the execution of the Contract, the successful Offeror shall deliver to the Owner
        the completed and executed Subcontractor’s Affidavit of Non-collusion in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 36-91-

20.     CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

        If any officer, director, or agent of the Contractor is also an employee of the DeKalb County Board of

        products needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the Work, the general and local conditions and
        all other matters which can in any way affect the Services or the Work to be done under the Agreement, and
        become thoroughly familiar with all conditions under which the Work is to be performed and correlate all the
        Contractor’s observations and any other facts or conditions that are known to or reasonably knowable by the
        Contractor with the requirements of the Proposal Documents, including the proposed Contract Documents.

22.     SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATIONS:

        If soil and subsurface investigations were conducted at the site of the proposed Project, a copy of the report
        is included in this RFP as an Appendix. Such information is provided for the purpose of disclosure only, and
        shall not relieve the Contractor from its obligation to investigate the soil and subsurface conditions. The Owner
        does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the data and shall not be responsible therefore. The
        Contractor shall not rely on such subsurface information and shall make its own investigation of subsurface
        conditions. The Owner will not be responsible in any way for additional compensation because of the reliance
        on or assumptions based on the soil investigation data furnished with the Proposal Documents.

23.     CONSENT TO RELEASE INFORMATION:
        By submitting a Proposal, the Contractor (and in the case of a joint venture, each partner in the joint venture)
        authorizes the Owner, and the Owner’s agents, attorneys and other representatives, to contact each and
        every reference, person or entity identified in the Proposal. The Contractor (and in the case of a joint venture,
        each partner in the joint venture) agrees that any information concerning the Contractor (and in the case of a
        joint venture, each partner in the joint venture) in possession of any identified reference, person or entity may
        be fully disclosed, and made available, to the Owner and its agents, attorneys and other representatives. The

                                for Contractors to add or deduct from their Base Bid at any time up to the official

            9. Equitable Distribution (Maximum 15 points):
                     9.1 In an effort to consider the equitable distribution of work, the Selection Process Facilitator
                         shall evaluate data showing dollar amounts of contracts and projects awarded by DCSD to
                         the submitting firm(s). The dollar amount of projects awarded will reflect the estimated
                         construction value listed on the RFP awarded to each firm. The projects taken into account
                         in the calculation will be those awarded by DCSD within two years from this RFP bid
                         opening. For those projects already under contract, the awarded amount will be replaced
                         by the GMP and/or Bid amount(s) contracted, not including change orders. For projects
                         recommended but not yet awarded, the contract value will reflect the estimated fee based
                         on the budget listed within the RFP for which the firm was selected. In the case of submittals
                         received by joint ventures, the projects awarded to each of the firms comprising the joint
                         venture will be included in the calculation of the projects awarded by DCSD. Furthermore,
                         this calculation will include all projects awarded to the submitting firm, either as a joint
                         venture or as a separate entity, whereby the submitting firm(s) was one of the entities
                         included in the award and/or contract.

                     9.2 The chart below will be used to award a maximum of 15 points based on dollar amount of
                         projects currently under contract, as well as those awarded by DCSD, but not yet under
                         contract and those recommended but not yet awarded. This single score will be allocated
                         to each firm by the Selection Process Facilitator and added to the cumulative score the
                         committee members.

 QUALIFICATIONS FOR SELECTION AND THE SELECTION PROCESS

A.      QUALIFICATIONS FOR SELECTION OF CONTRACTOR

        The evaluation of the Proposals will be based upon consideration of the demonstrated qualifications and
        capabilities of the Contractor based on the identified evaluation factors and their relative weight, which will
        result in an award that is in the best interest of the DeKalb County Board of Education.

B.      SELECTION PROCESS

         A Selection Committee will perform Proposal evaluations and, following completion of the evaluations and
         subject to the Owner’s right to reject any or all Proposals, the three responsible and responsive Contractors
         whose Proposals are determined to be the most advantageous to the Owner will be ranked 1 to 3. The
         Contractor ranked first will be selected to perform the Roof Replacement Services at Coralwood Diagnostic
         Center and Lithonia Middle School. The contractor ranked second will be selected to perform the Roof
         Replacement Services at Avondale Elementary School and Mary McLeod Bethune Middle School. The
         contractor ranked third will be selected to perform the Roof Replacement Services at Columbia Middle School
         and International Student Center. The evaluation factors that will be employed, and their relative importance,
         are identified at Part V, Section 14, above.

         Offerors may be afforded an opportunity for discussion, negotiation and revision of Proposals for the purpose
         of obtaining best and final offers. In the event the Owner deems it necessary or appropriate, responsible
         Offerors found by the Owner to have submitted Proposals reasonably susceptible of being selected for award
         shall be given an opportunity to participate in such discussions, negotiations and revisions.

        The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Proposals, before or after opening, for any reason whatsoever
        including, but not limited to, any failure of any Proposal to be accompanied by a proper Bid Bond or by other
        data required by the Proposal Documents, any incompleteness or irregularity of any Proposal received, any
        evidence of collusion with the intent to defraud or other illegal practices on the part of the Contractor, failure
        to comply with the requirements of the Proposal Documents, or exceeding the funds available. The Owner
        also reserves the right to waive any technicalities or informalities, and to award the Contract in the best
        interests of the Owner.

                                         PROTEST PROCESS

    This section describes the mandatory administrative procedure whereby Offerors submitting sealed competitive
    bids/proposals (hereinafter referred to as “bidders”) to DCSD directly related to design and construction, for
    proposals worth $100,000 or more may challenge the solicitation process, and whereby bidders/Offerors on sealed
    competitive bids directly related to Facilities Management for proposals worth $100,000 or more, may challenge
    contract awards.


    1. Protests. A bidder may file a written protest challenging DCSD’s compliance with applicable procurement
       procedures subject to the bidder’s compliance with the provisions outlined below. Any such written protest
       will be resolved in accordance with these provisions.

    2. Types of Challenges. Any bidder interested in and capable of responding to a competitive solicitation may
       file a protest with respect to the competitive solicitation process including, but not limited to, a challenge to
       specifications or any events or facts arising during the solicitation process. Any bidder submitting a timely
       bid/proposal in response to a competitive solicitation may file a protest with respect to DCSD’s intended or
       actual contract award including, but not limited to, events or facts arising during the evaluation and/or
       negotiation process.

    3. Form of protest. At a minimum, the written protest must include the following:
               a. the name and address of the protestor;
               b. appropriate identification of the solicitation;
               c. a statement of reasons for the protest;
               d. supporting exhibits, evidence, or documents to substantiate any claims unless not available
                   within the filing time (in which case the Offeror must proceed to file the protest during the
                   filing period identified below but state the expected availability of the material); and
               e. the desired remedy.

        DCSD, at its discretion, may deem issues not raised in the initial protest as waived with prejudice
        by the protesting Offeror.

    4. Filing Protests. A protest is considered to be properly filed when it is in writing, signed by a company officer
       authorized to sign contracts on behalf of the Offeror, and is received by the Design and Construction
       Department. The protest may be sent by any of the following means:

The Offeror must observe the following deadlines when filing a protest:
  Type of Protest                                                Protest Filing Deadline
  Challenge to Competitive Solicitation Process                  Two (2) business days prior to the closing date and time
                                                                 of the solicitation as identified on the Invitation to Bid.
  Challenge to an Intended or Actual Contract                    In the event DCSD posts a Notice of Intent to Award
  Award                                                          (“NOIA”), the protest must be filed within ten (10) calendar
                                                                 days of the date the NOIA is posted.
                                                                 In the event DCSD does not post a NOIA, the protest
                                                                 must be filed within ten (10) calendar days of the date the
                                                                 Notice of Award (“NOA”) is posted.

If a bidder fails to file a protest by the applicable deadline, such failure shall be deemed as a waiver with
prejudice of any grounds the bidder may have for protest.

    5. Stay of procurement during protest review. When a protest challenging the competitive solicitation process
       has been timely filed at least two (2) business days prior to the closing date and time, the solicitation shall not
       close until a final decision resolving the protest has been issued, unless the facilities management department
       makes a written determination that the closing of the solicitation without delay is necessary to protect the
       interests of DCSD.

        When a protest challenging an intended contract award has been timely filed, DCSD shall not proceed to
        actual contract award unless the Design and Construction Department makes a written determination that the
        issuance of a contract or performance of the contract without delay is necessary to protect the interests of
        DCSD. If it is determined that it is necessary to proceed with contract performance without delay, the
        bidder/Offeror with this contingent contract may proceed with performance and receive payment for work
        performed in strict accordance with the terms of the contract. The provisions of this paragraph are not
        applicable to a protest pertaining to events or facts arising during the solicitation process.

    6. Protest Resolution. The Design and Construction Department shall review and issue a written decision on
       the protest within seven (7) business days. This decision shall be deemed final. Available remedies for
       sustained protests are as follows:

             ▪   If a protest is sustained prior to the closing date and time of the solicitation, available remedies may
                 include, but are not limited to, the following: modification of the solicitation document including, but
                 not limited to, specifications and terms and conditions; extension of the solicitation closing date and
                 time (as appropriate); and cancellation of the solicitation.

             ▪   If a protest of the intended/actual contract award is sustained, available remedies may include but
                 are not limited to, the following: revision or cancellation of the NOIA/NOA, re-evaluation and re-
                 award, or re-solicitation with appropriate changes to the new solicitation.

    7. Costs. In no event shall a bidder be entitled to recover any costs incurred in connection with the solicitation
       or protest process, including, but not limited to, the costs of preparing a bid/proposal, the costs of participating
       in the protest process, or any attorney fees.
