What this bond does
Help a concession operator prepare the performance security requested for a Hawaii public-property contract governed by HRS §102-11.
- Who needs it
- Operators asked to furnish performance security for a State or county public-property concession under Chapter 102. Use the officer's written request to identify the contract and accepted security.
- Who it protects
- For performance security under HRS §102-11, the condition is full and faithful performance of the contract, benefiting the State or county as applicable. A §102-8 bid bond instead concerns entering the contract and furnishing satisfactory security after award. Confirm which accepted condition this offering must meet.

Questions about this bond
Are the bid bond and performance security the same obligation?
No. Section 102-8 conditions bid security on entering the contract and furnishing satisfactory security after award. Section 102-11 conditions performance security on full and faithful contract performance. Match the actual requested stage and form.
Does every public concession have to use a bond?
Section 102-11 allows specified alternatives when required performance security is less than four months' rental and other charges. For security at four months or more, it calls for a good and sufficient bond. Ask the officer what your contract requires.
Does the airport provision apply to every concession at HNL?
The special statutory minimum concerns sale and delivery of in-bond merchandise at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. Do not apply that rule to another activity without the requesting officer's instructions.
Who is protected by the performance security?
Section 102-11 requires it to benefit the State or the county, as applicable. Obtain the actual accepted form for the proper named beneficiary; do not assume all Hawaii concessions use the same agency name.
