bid bond
A bid bond is assurance from a bonding company that the winning contractor will enter into the construction contract with performance and payment bonds. The bonding company must pay the difference between the bonded bid and the bid of the next lowest responsible bidder if the bonded bid is accepted and the contractor fails to execute a contract or to provide a performance bond
