13. Darfur Contracting Act
A. The Darfur Contracting Act, Public Contract Code (PCC) Sections 10475-10481, applies to any company that currently or within the previous three years has had business activities or other operations outside of the United States. The Act was passed by the California Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting with “scrutinized” companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur region is a part), for the reasons described in PCC Section 10475. The bidder shall complete the Darfur Contracting Act Certification (ADM-0077) as part of the bidding process.
B. If your company has not, within the previous three (3) years, had any business activities or other operations outside of the United States, complete Option 1 on the ADM-0077.

D. Therefore, Public Contract Code Section 10478(a) requires a company that currently has (or within the previous three (3) years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States to certify that it is not a “scrutinized” company, during the bidding process with a State agency.
E. A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a Contract with a State agency for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services (DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code Section 10477(b).
14. Price Quote Submittal
A. The Price Quote should be emailed as described below. The price quote must be received by Caltrans, Division of Procurement and Contracts (DPAC), by dates and times shown in Section C, Price Quotation Requirements and Information.
B. The price quote email should be clearly marked with the IFPQ number, title, and ‘PRICE QUOTATION SUBMITTAL’, as shown in the following example:

E. Email to: Tiaja.Watson@dot.ca.gov
F. Pursuant to Government Code Section 14838.5, Caltrans must receive at least two (2) price quotes from certified SB/MBs or at least two (2) price quotes from DVBEs before it can make an agreement award. Therefore, at Caltrans’ discretion, if only one price quote is received, the timeframe for receipt of price quotes may be extended in order to receive the minimum number of quotes required by the Government Code. All prospective bidders will be notified via email or telephone of any extensions.
G. Price quotes must include the performance of all the services described herein. Any attempt to modify the Price Quote Proposal document to deviate from the work specifications will not be considered and will cause a price quote to be rejected.
H. A price quote may be rejected if it is conditional, incomplete, or if it contains any alterations of form or other irregularities of any kind. Caltrans may reject any price quote on the basis that it is not responsive or from a responsible bidder and may waive any immaterial deviation in a quote. Caltrans' waiver of an immaterial defect shall in no way modify the IFPQ document or excuse the bidder from full compliance with all requirements if awarded the Agreement.
I. Costs for developing price quotes and in anticipation of award of the contract are entirely the responsibility of the bidder and shall not be charged to the State.
J. A bidder may modify a price quote after its submission by first withdrawing the original price quote and then by resubmitting a new price quote prior to the price quote submittal deadline. Bidder modifications offered in any other manner, oral or written, will not be considered.
K. A bidder may withdraw a price quote by, prior to price quote submission deadline, submitting a written withdrawal request to Caltrans, at Tiaja.Watson@dot.ca.gov, signed by the bidder or an agent authorized in accordance with Section L below.

N. Caltrans reserves the right to reject all price quotes for reasonable cause.
O. Bidders are cautioned not to rely on Caltrans during its evaluation process to discover and report to the bidder any defects and errors in the submitted documents. Before submitting their documents, bidders should carefully proof them for errors and full adherence to the IFPQ requirements.
P. Where applicable, bidder should carefully examine work sites and specifications. Bidder shall investigate conditions, character, and quality of surface or subsurface materials or obstacles that might be encountered. No additions or increases to the contract amount will be made due to a lack of careful examination of work sites and specifications.
Q. Caltrans does not accept alternate contract language from a bidder. A price quote with such language will be considered a counterproposal and will be rejected.

B. Caltrans will evaluate each price quote to determine its responsiveness to Caltrans’ needs.
C. Price quotes that contain false or misleading statements, or which provide references, which do not support an attribute or condition claimed by the bidder, shall be rejected.
D. The Agreement, if awarded, shall be awarded to the responsible bidder who submits the lowest price quote and meets all the specifications. A price quote meets the specifications if it complies with all the requirements in this solicitation. In the event of a tie quote, Caltrans will draw lots to determine the successful contractor. Only one (1) price quote may be submitted by an entity: individual, firm, partnership, corporation, joint venture, or combination thereof. Receipt of more than one (1) price quote from an entity will result in all quotes from that entity being rejected and returned to the bidder.
16. Standard Conditions of Service
A. Service shall not begin before the start date set forth in the Agreement. After all approvals have been obtained, and the Agreement is executed, should Contractor fail to commence work at the agreed upon time, Caltrans, upon five (5) days written notice to contractor, reserves the right to terminate the Agreement.
