What are common mistakes that may cause my bid to be disqualified?
Incomplete bids are the most common reason for disqualification of bids. Bids that do not contain costs for all identified bid items (or bids that contain costs for additional items not specified) are difficult, if not impossible, to compare to other bids. Other causes for disqualification include, but are not limited to, a lack of adequate insurance coverage and exceptions to the form of contract that cannot be resolved through negotiation. Union Pacific reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids at its discretion.
