Standard Form 24 (SF 24) is a federal bid bond form used when a bid guarantee is required for government contracts, including construction, supplies, or services. It outlines the obligations of the Principal (bidder) and Surety(ies) to the United States Government, ensuring that if the Principal's bid is accepted, they will execute the necessary contractual documents and provide required bonds. Failure to do so obligates the Principal to compensate the Government for any cost exceeding the bid amount. The form details how penal sums are calculated (potentially as a percentage of the bid price with a maximum dollar limit) and provides instructions for corporate and individual sureties, including requirements for corporate seals, evidence of authority for signatories, and adherence to the Department of the Treasury's list of approved sureties for corporations. It also addresses co-surety arrangements and extensions of bid acceptance times, clarifying that "bid" and "bidder" encompass "proposal" and "offeror" in negotiated contracts.
