D. Contractors will be notified of the County’s Pre-Qualification determination. The County may rescind a Contractor’s Pre-Qualification based on subsequently learned information. A Contractor that is pre-qualified may acquire bidding documents for this project after it is publicly advertised for bids and may formally submit a bid by the specified bid opening date as published in the project Notice Inviting Bids. A Contractor that is not pre-qualified is not eligible to submit a bid.

While it is the intent of the Pre-Qualification Documents to assist the County in determining bidder responsibility prior to bid and to aid it in selecting the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, a bidder being pre-qualified will not preclude a post-bid evaluation of whether a bidder has the quality, fitness, capacity, and experience to satisfactorily perform the proposed work and has demonstrated the requisite trustworthiness.

E. Should a Contractor fail to be recommended for the pre-qualified bidders list, an appeal can be made by submitting written notice of an appeal (Notice of Appeal) to the Director of Sheriff-

Coroner within seven (7) calendar days of the date the Contractor was notified of The County of

Orange Pre-Qualification Determination. Failure to file a timely Notice of Appeal shall result in the Contractor’s waiver of any and all rights to challenge the Pre-Qualification Determination, whether by administrative process, judicial process or any other legal process or proceeding. If the Contractor gives the required Notice of Appeal and requests a hearing, the hearing shall be conducted within five (5) calendar days after The County of Orange receives the Notice of

Appeal. The Contractor may request, in writing, County of Orange to advise it on the basis for the

Pre-Qualification determination and any supporting evidence that was received from others or adduced as a result of an investigation by The County of Orange.

A Hearing Panel (“Hearing Panel”) shall be established and consist of three (3) panelists from various County of Orange infrastructure departments, with a maximum of one (1) panelist from the procuring department. The hearing shall be an informal process conducted by a non-partial panel that has the authority to hear such appeals. The Contractor will be given the opportunity to present information and reasons in opposition to the determination.

Within three (3) business days after the conclusion of the hearing, the Hearing Panel will render its decision in writing to the Contractor. The decision of the Hearing Panel shall be the County’s final administrative decision and any judicial review thereof shall be instituted no later than the time period referred to Section 1094.6 Code of Civil Procedure.

F. The Pre-Qualification Documents, Questionnaire answers, and financial statements submitted by the Contractors are not public records and are not open to public inspection. All information provided will be kept confidential to the extent permitted by law. However, the contents may be disclosed to third parties for purpose of verification, or investigation of substantial allegations, or in the appeal hearing. State law requires that the names of contractors applying for Pre-

Qualification determination shall be public records subject to disclosure, and “Contractor

Information Form” will be used for that purpose.

G. Pre-Qualification Documents must be signed under penalty of perjury in the manner designated at the end of the form (Certification), by an individual(s) who has the legal authority to bind the

Contractor on whose behalf that person is signing. If any information provided by a Contractor becomes inaccurate, the Contractor must immediately notify County of Orange and provide updated accurate information in writing, under penalty of perjury.

H. Contractor shall exercise reasonable care and diligence to avoid submitting a Pre-Qualification that could result in a conflict of interest if Contractor were to be selected. This obligation shall apply to the Contractor; the Contractor’s employees, agents, and relatives; sub-tier Contractors;

and third parties associated with accomplishing work and services in Contractor’s Pre-

Qualification. In the event Contractor has done work for the County on this project in the past or has reason to believe that a conflict of interest may exist for Contractor in regard to this project, Contractor should consult with its legal counsel prior to responding to this Pre-Qualification. Any

Contractor who is found to have an actual conflict of interest may have its Pre-Qualification rejected on that ground.
