About this file

This is an Offeror's Checklist attachment for a Third Party Consulting Services solicitation issued by the State of South Carolina. The checklist serves as a pre-submission review guide designed to prevent common bid and proposal errors that could result in rejection. Offerors are instructed to avoid including standard contract forms or additional boilerplate clauses unless expressly required, to ensure no exceptions are taken to mandatory state requirements, and to properly acknowledge all amendments issued with the solicitation. The submission must include a signed copy of the solicitation cover page bearing the signature of an authorized representative with contractual binding authority, the requested number of copies, and all materials specified in the solicitation requirements.

The checklist emphasizes critical compliance requirements regarding the handling of confidential and proprietary information, specifically prohibiting offerors from marking their entire bid or proposal as confidential, trade secret, or protected, and from including legends on cover pages claiming non-release status. Offerors are strongly advised to address any concerns or questions regarding the solicitation during designated pre-bid conferences or question-and-answer periods rather than raising issues in their submitted response, as modifications cannot be made after the opening date. The checklist functions as a quality assurance tool to ensure complete and compliant submissions that meet all state procurement requirements.

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.
