The District reserves the right to reject any or all bids, or to waive any irregularities or informalities in any bids or the bidding, and to make its selection of items awarded based upon its best judgment as to which items substantially comply with the specifications, or which are most economical and/or best suited for the purpose for which they are intended.

The District also reserves the right to make multiple awards or no award at all, and further reserves the right to reject any and all bids and to waive any irregularity or discrepancy associated with this bid.

(90) calendar days after the bid opening date.

11. SUBMITTAL

All Bidders submitting a bid shall be responsible for familiarizing themselves with the conditions and requirements of the bid before submitting their proposal. All bids must be submitted on the forms enclosed and submitted online.

A responsive bid is one that meets all terms, conditions, and specifications of the bid. The bid must comply with the content requirements of the bid documents.

Bids will be considered valid for ninety (90) calendar days after the bid closing date.

12. SPECIFICATIONS

Bidders shall thoroughly examine and be familiar with the specifications.

The submission of a bid shall be taken as prima facie evidence of compliance with this section.

13. PRICES

Bid each item separately. Prices must be stated in units specified or trade standard. The right is reserved to waive any informality in bids, to reject any or all bids, and to accept or reject any item or combination of items.

14. BRANDS

Brand names are included for descriptive purposes to indicate the quality, design, and utility desired by the District, but the specifications are not intended to restrict competition. Brands of equal make or type to those specified will be considered unless otherwise so indicated in the bid. Each bidder shall indicate the brand name and model number of the brand(s) being bid (even if indicated in the specification). Terms such as “As spec” or Bidder’s item numbers instead of the manufacturer’s name and model number may be considered non-responsive.

15. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

All bids, including the accepted bid and any subsequent award contract, become public records per the requirements of the California Government Code, Sections 6250- 6270, and the “California Public Records Act”. Bidders submitting Proprietary information shall mark the information as such. The pricing and service elements of the successful bid are not considered proprietary information.

The District will treat all information submitted in a bid as available for public inspection once the District has an award contract finalized with the selected Bidder.

The Bidder agrees to defend and indemnify the District for any liability, costs, and expenses incurred in asserting such confidentiality as part of your bid. The final determination as to whether the District will assert your claim of confidentiality on your behalf shall be at the sole discretion of the District.
