Could you explain this to me a little bit more? I'm stuck on the obligee information, since no one is really requiring it but us! We have been in business since 2003 and our only bond currently is for $10,000 because that's what isrequired of our license. Thanks very much! |
If you complete our Fast Track application for prequalification, you can determine if you are "bondable" for contract bonds. With the approval we would also provide you with the rate you would be charged for performance bonds. The basic bond line would afford you a $200,000 line of bonding. For a specific job, the Obligee is who is requiring the bond of you. If you are bidding on building a fire station for your local municipality, then that municipality is the Obligee.
