About this file

This is an Offeror's Checklist document issued by the State of South Carolina for an Independent Verification & Validation contract opportunity. The checklist serves as a pre-submission guide to help offerors avoid common bid and proposal mistakes that could result in rejection. Key requirements include: do not submit standard contract forms or additional boilerplate clauses unless expressly required; ensure the bid/proposal does not take exception to any mandatory state requirements; properly mark all protected, confidential, or trade secret information according to submission instructions while avoiding marking the entire response as confidential; properly acknowledge all amendments as instructed; include a signed solicitation cover page from an authorized representative; submit the exact number of copies requested; and verify that all requested elements are included in the final submission.

Offerors are strongly advised to address any concerns about the solicitation during the pre-bid/proposal conference or designated question and answer period rather than raising objections in their actual response, as issues cannot be remedied after the bid opening. The checklist emphasizes that failure to follow these guidelines risks automatic rejection of the bid or proposal, making compliance with these procedural requirements critical to ensuring consideration of the offeror's submission.

OFFEROR'S CHECKLIST -- AVOID COMMON BID/PROPOSAL MISTAKES

Review this checklist prior to submitting your bid/proposal.

If you fail to follow this checklist, you risk having your bid/proposal rejected.

- Do not include any of your standard contract forms!

- Unless expressly required, do not include any additional boilerplate contract clauses.

- 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! If this solicitation includes a pre-bid/proposal conference or a question & answer period, raise your questions as a part of that process! Please see instructions under the heading "submission of questions" and any provisions regarding pre-bid/proposal conferences.
