SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTIONS (Value Program)

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 INTRODUCTION

A. OWNER has determined that it obtains better value from contracted services when certain practices enhance a Bidder’s work environment. OWNER has implemented a Value- Based Procurement Program (the “Value Program”) to obtain the benefit of those practices.

A. The Value Program is as set forth in Salt Lake City Procurement Rules Chapter 19 and can be found at the following web address:

“53-1A-20: VALUE BASED PROCUREMENT PROGRAM”.

B. Participation by a Bidder is voluntary. Failure to comply shall not render a bid non-responsive.

1. Bidder will receive no benefits allowable under the Value Program;

2. Bidder will NOT be allowed to submit additional information related to the Value

Program; and

3. Bidder waives any and all rights to raise a protest related to the Value Program.

D. If Bidder participates in the Value Program, Bidder shall provide the information shown in the Value Program Form (Document 00 43 40). In that form, Bidder certifies that the information given is true as of the time of submitting its bid. The information will be used in the manner stated in the Value Program to evaluate “responsibility” if bids are close.

E. When the Value Program is applicable, the Program will only affect bids that fall within the following dollar range.

1. For contracts with an estimated value of $250,000 or less, the Value Program will apply to all bids or offers that fall within 2% of the lowest amount submitted.

2. For contracts with an estimated value of more than $250,000 but less than $1,000,000, the Program will apply to all bids or offers that fall within 1/2% of the lowest amount submitted plus $5,000.

3. For contracts with an estimated value of $1,000,000 TO $2,000,000, the Program will apply to all bids or offers that fall within $10,000 of the lowest amount submitted.
