4-ATT C BD26-58 Market Basket Cost Proposal.xlsx

This is a cost proposal attachment for an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing and the Division of Wildlife Resources for UV components to support UV systems across all Utah Hatcheries. The procurement seeks to establish a 5-year contract for the supply of UV parts from multiple manufacturers, with awards anticipated for up to three different manufacturer product lines based on competitive pricing. The IFB does not require a mandatory site visit, though bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the hatchery facilities to understand local conditions that may affect pricing. No specific response dates, due dates, or award dates are referenced in this cost proposal attachment.

Pricing must be submitted on a FOB destination basis with all fees included in the quoted prices. Bidders must apply discount percentages to manufacturer catalog prices for designated product numbers, with the total cost for each brand's market basket used for evaluation purposes to determine the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The contract includes pricing guarantees for one year, after which requests for price increases will be considered. The evaluation methodology awards contracts to the cheapest provider of three different manufacturer part numbers, allowing a single vendor to be awarded all three line items if competitive. The cost proposal form requires completion of green-highlighted fields for responsiveness and lists product numbers and net prices for three manufacturers: Trojan, DeNora, and Sita.
