About this file
This is a PowerPoint presentation from an optional pre-quote conference for the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) regarding solicitation T3118 for Emergency Winter Season Towing Services. The conference addressed procedural questions related to bid submission requirements rather than scope of work details. Questions and answers are due by 2:00 p.m. on September 9, 2026, with quotes due by 2:00 p.m. on October 22, 2026. The presentation indicates that the bid solicitation includes nine sections covering introduction, pre-quote submission information, quote submission requirements, scope of work, general contract terms, data security requirements, modifications to standard terms and conditions, quote evaluation and award criteria, and glossary materials, along with the State of New Jersey Standard Terms and Conditions as Attachment 1.
The presentation emphasizes critical submission requirements for vendors, particularly regarding completion of the State-Supplied Price Sheet, which must be submitted in the original Excel format with all required price lines completed with either dollar amounts or "no charge" designations with no blank lines, formatting changes, or additional language. Vendors are instructed to submit quotes exclusively through NJSTART without email, fax, or hand delivery, and quotes must address all mandatory requirements designated by "shall" to avoid being deemed non-responsive. The presentation notes this is not a waiver or Delegated Purchasing Authority procurement and encourages vendors to register in NJSTART, review all bid amendments, and utilize the Q&A tab for scope-related questions. The conference also highlighted this as an opportunity for potential vendors to partner with small, woman-owned, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and disabled veteran-owned businesses.

PRICE SHEET PITFALLS
Complete all required price lines on the State-Supplied Price Sheet pursuant to the Bid Solicitation instructions or Quote may be deemed non-responsive. Indicate “no charge” if the cost is $0. Do not leave any price line blank.
The State-Supplied Price Sheet must be completed in its entirety with no lines added or removed, or include additional language, assumptions or fees.
Do not make formatting changes to the State-Supplied Price Sheet. If the price line requires a dollar amount, don’t change it to a percentage, or vice versa. If the price line includes 2 decimal places, don’t change the settings to allow 4 decimals.
Confirm that you have completed all tabs on the State-Supplied Price Sheet.
Confirm you have completed the proper version of the State-Supplied Price Sheet; it may have been revised via Bid Amendment.
Submitting a State-Supplied Price Sheet in a format other than the supplied Excel document can lead to a price sheet being deemed non-responsive when the information in a cell cannot be confirmed by the Bureau.
HELPFUL TIPS & REMINDERS
Review Bid Solicitation in its entirety and submit any questions prior to the deadline including exceptions to the SSTC. Updated documents will be posted in NJSTART and should be reviewed as posted.
Submit Quotes on time addressing all mandatory requirements (designated by “shall”) including forms. Quotes missing mandatory requirements may be deemed non-responsive. Not submitting requested information (“should”) may impact the technical evaluation score.
When submitting a Quote through NJSTART, do not use any symbols (i.e., #, @, $, &, *) in the filename as this may prevent the Quote from being properly uploaded. Uploaded files must be compatible with Microsoft Office and/or Adobe software applications. DO NOT UPLOAD files with extensions such as .zip, .numbers, or .pages.
Be advised that this is NOT a Waiver or Delegated Purchasing Authority (“DPA”) procurement. The Quote may not be emailed, faxed, or hand-delivered. The Quote may only be submitted through NJSTART.
Do not select “No Bid” on the NJSTART “General Tab” unless you are not intending to submit a bid. Your bid will not appear in the Bid Tab if this option is selected.
OTHER HELPFUL TIPS
Examples of additional language may deem a quote non-responsive:
Vendor accepts all terms and conditions of this Bid Solicitation with the following additional language: Section X - Agree, as it applies to changes that impact administrative fees as outlined in this provision, provided that Vendor reserves the right to modify Contracted Terms based on changes by the State.
Vendor’s Quote is only valid for XX days.
Vendor reserves the right to charge additional fees for services that require extensive time and effort.
This Quote is a nonbinding expression of interest only and is not intended to create a binding commitment on either party unless and until a definitive agreement has been executed between the parties.
This Quote may include statements regarding plans for future products and services, or future versions of existing products and services. Any such statements are provided solely for your general information and are not part of this Quote unless specifically stated in writing in this Quote.
