    Bid Bond SF24.pdf
    Standard Form 24 (SF 24) is a Bid Bond form used when a bid guarantee is required for federal government contracts, including construction, supplies, or services. It outlines the obligations of the Principal (bidder) and Surety(ies) to the United States of America. The bond ensures that if the Principal's bid is accepted, they will execute the necessary contractual documents and provide required bonds within specified timeframes (60 days for acceptance, 10 days for execution, if not otherwise stated). Failure to do so obligates the Principal to pay the Government for any cost of procuring the work that exceeds the original bid amount. The form also details conditions for sureties, including their liability limits, requirements for corporate and individual sureties, and instructions for proper execution, such as affixing corporate seals and providing evidence of authority for signatories. The document emphasizes adherence to Department of the Treasury's list of approved sureties for corporations and the need for an Affidavit of Individual Surety (SF 28) for individual sureties. It also provides instructions for expressing the penal sum as a percentage of the bid price with a maximum dollar limitation and clarifies that "bid" and "bidder" include "proposal" and "offeror" in negotiated contracts.
