Some supply contracts require the supplier to provide a bond or carry specific insurance, and a supplier that does not read these terms misjudges eligibility and cost.
What bonding and insurance set
A supply solicitation may require a bid bond, a supply or performance bond, and specific insurance coverage from the supplier. The solicitation sets the bond amounts, the insurance limits, and the documentation the supplier must furnish, which decide eligibility and consume bonding capacity.
Why these terms are easy to miss
Whether a bond is required of the supplier, the amount, and the insurance limits sit in the solicitation and the instructions, not the title. A supplier that misses them quotes work it cannot bond or underprices the coverage.
