Each bidder must familiarize himself fully with the conditions relating to the construction of the

obligation to furnish all material and labor necessary to carry out the provisions of his contract. Insofar
as possible the Contractor, in carrying out his work, must employ such methods or means as will not
cause any interruption of or interference with the work of any other Contractor. Questions can be
directed to Emily Sumner, DPW Administrative Supervisor at 508-896-3212 or esumner@brewster-

No award will be made to any bidder who cannot satisfy the Owner that he has sufficient ability and
experience in this class of work and sufficient capital and plant to enable him to prosecute and
complete the work successfully within the time named. The Owner's decision or judgment on these
matters will be final, conclusive, and binding. The Owner may make such investigations as it deems
necessary, and the bidder shall furnish to the Owner, under oath if so required, all such information and
data for this purpose as the Owner may request.
Selection of the contractor (s) will be based upon bidder qualifications, including evidence of past
performance in similar projects, and bid price. The contract will be awarded to the bidder deemed by
the awarding authority to be the lowest responsible and eligible bidder.
The Town reserves the right to waive any informalities, to accept or reject, in whole or in part any or
all bids, or take whatever other action may be deemed to be in the best interest of the Town.
The Owner may also reject bids which in its sole judgment are either incomplete, conditional, obscure
or not responsive or which contain additions not called for, erasures not properly initialed, alterations,
or similar irregularities.
