COUNTY OF GENESEE

Bid # 2026-16

By submission of this bid, each bidder and each person signing on behalf of any bidder certifies, and in the case of a joint bid, each party thereto certifies as to its own organization, under penalty of perjury, that to the best of knowledge and belief:

1. The prices in this bid have been arrived at independently without collusion, consultation, communication or agreement, for the purpose of restricting competition, as to any matter relating to such prices with any other bidder or with any competitor;

2. Unless otherwise required by law, the prices which have been quoted in this bid have not been knowingly disclosed by the bidder and will not knowingly be disclosed by the bidder prior to opening, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder or to any competitor; and

3. No attempt has been made or will be made by the bidder to induce any other person, partnership or corporation to submit or not to submit, a bid for the purpose of restricting competition.

In compliance with his invitation for bids, and subject to the conditions thereof, the undersigned offers and agrees, if this bid is accepted within forty-five (45) days from the date of opening, to furnish any and all of the items upon which prices are submitted.

As of January 1, 2005, the Office of the State Comptroller is requiring that governmental agencies award contracts only to vendors that have been certified as "responsible." Vendor responsibility means that a vendor has the integrity to justify the award of public dollars and the capacity to fully perform the requirements of the contract. It is a contracting agency's responsibility, under Section 163 (9) of the State

Finance Law (SFL), to evaluate and make a determination of the responsibility of a prospective contractor.

A responsibility determination, wherein the contracting agency determines that it has reasonable assurances that a vendor is responsible, is an important part of the procurement process, promoting fairness in contracting and protecting a contracting agency and the State (as well as the County) against failed contracts.

The following factors are to be considered in making a responsibility determination:

1. Legal Authority to do business in New York State

2. Integrity

3. Capacity - both organizational and financial

4. Previous performance

Please complete the enclosed Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire. The completed Questionnaire shall be returned with your bid submission in order for your bid to be ruled responsive.

Additional information concerning vendor responsibility, including electronic versions of forms, may be found at the Office of the State Comptroller's (OSC) website: http://www.osc.state.ny.us/vendrep

If the person or entity fails to demonstrate that he/she/it has ceased engagement in the investment which is in violation of the Act within 90 days after the determination of such violation, then the County shall take such action as may be appropriate including, but not limited to, imposing sanctions, seeking compliance, recovering damages or declaring the Bidder/Contractor in default.

The County reserves the right to reject any bid or request for assignment for a Bidder/Contractor that appears on the Prohibited

Entities List prior to the award of a contract and to pursue a responsibility review with respect to any Bidder/Contractor that is awarded a contract and subsequently appears on the Prohibited Entities List.
