A completed Exhibit D Price Schedule must accompany all proposals, with the line-item bid price field in the SWIFT system to be marked as $.01 as a system requirement, while actual pricing evaluation will be based solely on the submitted price schedule. The RFP encourages participation from Minnesota-based small businesses, including those majority-owned and operated by racial minorities, women, persons with substantial physical disabilities, veterans or service-disabled veterans, or those located in economically disadvantaged counties, with potential eligibility for the State's Small Business Procurement Program. Responding companies must certify compliance with Minnesota Statutes 16C.285 regarding responsible contractor requirements and subcontractor compliance.
