Question:
Items #16, 18, and 20 have given bid pricing that must be used. The description of basis of payments says that the contractor will be reimbursed for the actual cost of the work based on the per ton given bid price. Why is the contractor not entitled to receive any profit on these items as per force account breakdowns?
Answer:
The items in question were separated for bidding purposes to create a fund to be drawn upon with the required disposal cost set by the receiving facility. Profit can be realized through Loading and Hauling, and other work items as described in the specifications.
