Update - Bidder Responsibility Guidelines

The Industry-Wide Subcommittee of the Capital Projects Advisory Review Board (CPARB) had been scheduled to meet today, but with everyone's vacation schedules and other conflicts the meeting was canceled due to a lack of a quorum. The plan had been for the subcommittee to review the draft of the Suggested Guidelines for Bidder Responsibility that a task force has developed. The guidelines are not complete but are coming together nicely.

I will be in Olympia on Thursday to brief the full CPARB on the draft guidelines as they exist today and getting feedback from the CPARB members. The hope is that the task force can complete its work this month and have CPARB adopt the Guidelines at their September meeting. CPARB will publish the adopted guidelines to their website and the Municipal Research & Services Center (MRSC) has also indicated their intent to publish the guidelines on their website once they are adopted.
