About this file

This is a procurement notice from H-GAC (Houston-Galveston Area Council), a Texas-based cooperative purchasing consortium, announcing its transition to an automated web-based electronic bidding and vendor management system in partnership with OpenGov. The notice directs potential respondents to register for free through H-GAC's Procurement Portal to submit bids and proposals and receive notifications of future opportunities. Solicitations are accessible at https://www.h-gac.com/procurement, and vendors can manage their participation through the OpenGov platform at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/h-gac.

The notice establishes critical communication restrictions to maintain procurement integrity. Direct communication between H-GAC employees and respondents is prohibited during the restricted period, which begins on the solicitation issue date and extends through the protest period for unsuccessful respondents or contract execution for successful awardees. Exceptions are permitted only for pre-proposal conferences or bid conferences expressly authorized by the solicitation contact. Additionally, respondents are explicitly prohibited from offering gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value to H-GAC officials or employees, including evaluation committee members, for the purpose of influencing submission consideration. Violations of these requirements may result in submission rejection pursuant to H-GAC procurement policy.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: To ensure a fair and competitive environment, direct communication between H-GAC employees other than the Solicitation Contact or any party able to create an unfair advantage to Respondent or disadvantage to other Respondents with respect to the Solicitation process, or the award of a Contract is strictly prohibited. This restricted period of communication begins on the issue date of the Solicitation and for Respondent(s) not selected for award ends with the conclusion of the protest period identified in the Solicitation document and for Respondents(s) selected for award ends with the Contract execution. This restriction does not apply to communications to other H-GAC employees during a Pre-Proposal/Bid or Response conference or other situations where the Solicitation Contact has expressly authorized direct communications with other staff. A Respondent who intentionally violates this requirement of the Solicitation process or otherwise deliberately or unintentionally benefits from such a violation by another party may have its Submission rejected in accordance with H-GAC Procurement Policy. Respondent(s) will not offer any gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value to any official or employee of H-GAC

(including any and all members of the evaluation committee) for the purposes of influencing consideration of any Submission.
