An onsite pre-bid conference is scheduled for February 4, 2026, at 1:00 PM at the project site (4865 S 1200 E, Salt Lake City, UT 84117).

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.

1.2 THE VALUE PROGRAM

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:

https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/saltlakecityut Click on “POLICIES AND PROCEDURES MANUAL FOR SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH” click on “TITLE 53 FINANCE, RISK MANAGEMENT”, click on “CHAPTER 1 PROCUREMENT, CONTRACTS, INSURANCE”,- Click on “ARTICLE A. PROCUREMENT”; click on

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

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

C. If Bidder fails to participate in the Value Program at the time of submitting a bid, OWNER shall consider such bid as though Bidder had no factors under the Value Program. In such a case,

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.

F. An award, if any, will be made in accordance with Salt Lake City Procurement Rules, Chapter 19. In general terms, Chapter 19 may apply based on the amount bid and other factors.

OWNER will then further evaluate responsibility under the Value Program and will award the Contract to the Bidder who demonstrates the most points among the following factors. If two or more bidders have the same number of points, the award will be made to the bidder with the lowest bid price.

Policy of nondiscrimination 1/2 point

Sponsorship of state-compliant apprenticeship programs(s) 1/2 point

Use of a pre-employment and “for cause” drug testing program 1/2 point

Local small business 1/2 point
