The responsibilities include Request for Proposals (RFP) and Invitations to Bid (IFB) development, advertising, pre-proposal meetings and award process.

  • Performance Bond
    The selected contractor may be required to submit to the MAA, prior to execution of the contract, a Performance Bond in an amount not to exceed 100 percent of the total contract price.
  • Payment Bond
