| Any documents relating to bidding are not part of the contract documents between owner and contractor. Anyone knows why contract documents do not include any bidding documents and requirements?

Because bidding instructions are not relevant to the construction of a building.
They are administrative items for the procurement of a construction contract.
They have no relevance to the actual construction.
The key terms are: Project manual, construction documents, specifications, and instruments of service.

What does instrument of service mean?

| AIA Doc B141, Section 1.3.2 addresses instruments of service. Instruments of service include all the graphic representations, i.e. sketches, models, plans, drawings, that help communicate a project from an idea to a real built project.
