About this file
This is an Offeror's Checklist document issued by the State of South Carolina for contract solicitation REB170356, designed to assist vendors in avoiding common bid and proposal submission errors.
The checklist requires offerors to review their submissions for compliance with multiple critical requirements prior to bid opening. Vendors must ensure they do not include standard contract forms or unnecessary boilerplate clauses unless expressly required by the solicitation. Submissions must not take exception to any mandatory state requirements, and all protected, confidential, or trade secret information must be properly marked in accordance with state instructions, with explicit prohibition against marking entire bids as confidential. Offerors must acknowledge all issued amendments according to the instructions provided within those amendments and include a signed copy of the solicitation cover page authorized by a person with contractual binding authority. Additionally, vendors must verify inclusion of the requested number of copies and confirm that all solicitation requirements have been met. The checklist directs offerors to raise any concerns about the solicitation during pre-bid conferences or designated question-and-answer periods rather than within their bid responses.
No pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, funding sources, or contract award dates are specified within this checklist document, as it serves primarily as an administrative guidance tool to ensure proper bid submission procedures and compliance with state procurement requirements.

- Reread your entire bid/proposal to make sure your bid/proposal does not take exception to any of the state's mandatory requirements.
- Make sure you have properly marked all protected, confidential, or trade secret information in accordance with the instructions entitled: SUBMITTING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. DO NOT mark your entire bid/proposal as confidential, trade secret, or protected! Do not include a legend on the cover stating that your entire response is not to be released!
- Have you properly acknowledged all amendments? Instructions regarding how to acknowledge an amendment should appear in all amendments issued.
- Make sure your bid/proposal includes a copy of the solicitation cover page. Make sure the cover page is signed by a person that is authorized to contractually bind your business.
- Make sure your Bid/proposal includes the number of copies requested.
- Check to ensure your Bid/proposal includes everything requested!
- If you have concerns about the solicitation, do not raise those concerns in your response! After opening, it is too late!
