About this file

This document is an Offeror's Checklist issued by the State of South Carolina for the FPB Hearing Officers contract opportunity, designed to help bidders avoid common mistakes when submitting their bids or proposals. The checklist requires offerors to refrain from including their standard contract forms or additional boilerplate clauses unless expressly required by the solicitation. Bidders must ensure their proposals do not take exception to the state's mandatory requirements, properly acknowledge all amendments issued, include a signed copy of the solicitation cover page authorized by someone with contractual authority, and submit the correct number of copies as requested. Additionally, offerors must reread their entire submission to verify all solicitation requirements have been addressed and that all protected, confidential, or trade secret information has been properly marked according to instructions, with particular emphasis that the entire bid or proposal should not be marked as confidential.

The checklist emphasizes that bidders should not raise concerns or exceptions to the solicitation within their proposal submission itself. Instead, any questions or concerns should be addressed during designated pre-bid or proposal conferences and question-and-answer periods as outlined in the solicitation instructions. The document serves as a compliance tool to ensure submissions meet all administrative and substantive requirements and remain eligible for consideration by the state evaluators.
