3-APPENDIX D - Vendor Forms.xlsx

This is a vendor forms appendix for a State of Delaware, Office of Management and Budget, Government Support Services solicitation for multiple vendors to provide mulch, sand, and other ground surfacing materials. The document contains standardized forms that all responding vendors must complete as part of their bid submission, including a non-collusion statement, vendor information sheet, business references, confidentiality designation form, exceptions form, and subcontractor disclosure form. The non-collusion statement must be signed by an authorized representative and notarized, with the notary seal visible, to certify that the vendor has not engaged in collusive or anti-competitive practices related to this solicitation. Vendors must also declare whether their firm, affiliates, predecessors, or key personnel have been subject to federal, state, or local government suspension or debarment within the past five years.

The vendor information sheet requires submission of company details, purchase order address, website, diverse vendor certification status (state and federal), designated primary and secondary contacts, and a business capability statement. All responding vendors must provide a minimum of three business references of similar size and scope, with contact information and details of work performed; if subcontractors are utilized, each subcontractor must also provide three references. Vendors may designate portions of their proposal as confidential, intellectual property, or trade secrets by completing the confidentiality form and explaining how the redacted information qualifies for exemption under Delaware Code Title 29, Chapter 100. The exceptions form allows vendors to submit minor exceptions to the solicitation terms and conditions, with all exceptions subject to Government Support Services' discretion for approval or rejection. Any vendor proposing subcontractors must complete and obtain signatures from both the primary vendor and subcontractor on the subcontractor form, which includes descriptions of work to be performed.
