5-Non Submittal- fillable.pdf

This is a Non-Submittal Response Form used by Saint Louis Public Schools (SLPS) for a roof project at Patrick Henry School in Missouri. The form is designed to capture feedback from companies that choose not to submit a bid in response to the solicitation. SLPS specifically requests that vendors indicate their reason for non-participation to help the district identify barriers to competition and improve future procurement processes. The form provides multiple checkbox options for vendors to select from, including inability to meet project requirements, inability to meet the established timeline for project start and completion, late receipt of the solicitation, or other reasons that vendors can describe in writing.

The district also offers vendors the option to request removal from future solicitation lists for similar project types. By collecting this information systematically, SLPS aims to make its procurement process more transparent, equitable, and attractive to qualified vendors. All responses are retained in the contract file and reviewed to identify necessary changes that could increase participation and competition in future solicitations. This approach demonstrates the district's commitment to fair procurement practices and continuous improvement in vendor outreach.
