About this file
This is a vendor registration and procurement notification document issued by H-GAC (Houston-Galveston Area Council), a Texas-based purchasing consortium. The document announces H-GAC's transition to an automated, web-based electronic bidding and vendor management system developed in partnership with OpenGov. Interested vendors must register for free through H-GAC's Procurement Portal to submit bids and proposals and receive notifications of future contract opportunities. All solicitations are viewable on H-GAC's procurement website at https://www.h-gac.com/procurement. The document does not contain specific product or service requirements, quantities, response deadlines, or contract award dates, as it functions primarily as a notification of the new bidding system implementation rather than a specific solicitation.
The document establishes communication protocols and ethical requirements for all respondents participating in H-GAC solicitations. Direct communication between respondents and H-GAC employees other than the designated Solicitation Contact is strictly prohibited during the restricted period, which begins at solicitation issuance and extends through the protest period for non-selected respondents or contract execution for selected respondents. Exceptions exist for authorized pre-proposal conferences or bid conferences. Respondents are explicitly prohibited from offering gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value to H-GAC officials or evaluation committee members. Violations of these communication restrictions or ethical requirements may result in rejection of submissions in accordance with H-GAC Procurement Policy. No pricing information, set-asides, funding sources, or contract-specific terms are addressed in this document.

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.
