It is MANDATORY that the bidder attend the site visit at the designated date and time to examine the scope of the work required and the existing conditions.
The tender package will be provided at the Site Visit. A maximum of two (2) representatives per bidder will be permitted to examine the site.
The site visit will be held on April 20, 2015 at 10:00am AST, at Carleton Martello Tower, 454 Whipple St, Saint John, NB, Canada. Bidders who, for any reason, cannot attend at the specified date and time will not be given an alternative appointment to view the site and their proposals, therefore, will be considered as non-responsive. NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE.
As proof of attendance, at the site visit, the Contracting Authority will have an Attendance Form which MUST be signed by the bidder's representative. It is the responsibility of all bidders to ensure they have signed the Mandatory Site Visit Attendance Form prior to leaving the site. Proposals submitted by bidders who have not attended the site visit or failed to sign the Attendance Form will be deemed non-responsive.
Bidders must communicate with the Contracting Authority 2 working days prior to the scheduled visit to confirm attendance.
Bidders are to provide the Contracting Authority with the names of its representatives attending. If they fail to provide this information, they may not be allowed access to the site.
