Section 3 Bid Evaluation and Award

3.1 Bid Evaluation

3.1.1 Bids will be evaluated by the Procurement Department.

3.1.2 Bids will be evaluated for responsiveness to the bid specifications and the responsibility of the sellers.

A bid may be deemed non-responsive for any of the following:

(a) improper bid security

(b) improper bid execution

(c) incompleteness

(d) offering counter terms and conditions

3.1.4 Sellers whose bids are determined to be non-responsible for reasons of seller qualification shall be notified by the City of the reasons for the determination and may contest the finding of non-responsibility through the prescribed procedures described in paragraph 9 of “SS&E Terms and Conditions of Bidding and Contract”.

In furtherance of this goal, the City will track the participation of small and local businesses at all tiers of City contracting. In accordance with City requirements and all applicable law, seller agrees to comply with the City’s requirements for the collection, retention, and reporting of data relating to contracting at any tier, including subcontracts.

Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted as (i) imposing mandatory quotas or percentages tied to protected group status, (ii) limiting the City's ability to periodically review, amend, or update its contracting policies consistent with applicable law and evolving policy objectives, or (iii) limiting the City’s ability to issue additional guidance on the collection, retention, and reporting of contracting data pursuant to this Section.

The remedies outlined in this Contract are for the City’s benefit only. The failure of the City to enforce or the indulgence of any non-compliance with this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the City’s rights nor give rise to actions by any third parties, including subcontractors.

Seller hereby verifies that all information submitted to the City in connection with this Section is true and correct and is notified that the submission of false information is subject to the penalties of 18 Pa.C.S. § 4904 relating to unsworn falsification to authorities, which may include payment of a fine of at least $1,000 and a term of imprisonment of not more than two (2) years.”
