About this file

This is a Scope of Work Verification form submitted by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) in California for a Request for Quote (RFQ) regarding promotional items. The procurement seeks qualified firms to provide promotional items on an as-needed basis under a one-year initial term. The document establishes the general rules and requirements for preparing the scope of work and specifications, emphasizing that solicitations must invite fair competition without imposing unreasonable requirements or favoring specific vendors. Written questions must be submitted no later than 11:00 a.m. on April 23, 2026, with OCTA providing written responses by addendum no later than April 27, 2026.

The procurement carries a budget of $10,000 for the one-year initial term. The Scope of Work Verification form requires certification by both the Project Manager and either the Department Manager, Director, or Executive Director, confirming that the specifications were independently prepared to invite competition or, if brand names are referenced, that such specifications include "or equal" descriptions with clearly stated salient characteristics as required by Federal Transit Administration regulations. All submitting firms must certify that they are not subject to Ukraine/Russia-related economic sanctions imposed by the State of California or the United States Government, including Presidential Executive Order Nos. 13660, 13661, 13662, 13685, and 14065, and agree to comply with all applicable economic sanctions.

The following general rules shall apply when preparing scopes of work and specifications:

c) Whenever possible, the expected quality of services to be provided or the performance characteristics of the item shall be specified.

d) The requestor shall identify all optional items, and the solicitation documents shall set forth the expected needs and the manner in which the related bid prices will be considered.

e) Brand name specifications must be accompanied by an explanation that clearly indicates that the specification is not intended to be restrictive.

f) The salient characteristics represented by the brand names shall be identified to allow for evaluation of possible “or equal” material.

g) Because standard specifications and requirements allow for more efficient operations and result in lower prices, they shall be used wherever suitable.
