SCOPE AND INTENT

The intent of the BID is to provide for the purchase and dispensing of on- and off-site consignment of unleaded and diesel fuels for the use of Burnet County for a two (2) year period with an option to renew/extend for two (2) additional years if the price remains the same. The proposal will be split into two (2) categories: On-site Local Fuel Supply and Off-site Fuel Supply. Bidders should be aware that the County reserves the right to award each category to a different vendor if it is in the best interest of the County. Information on each of the two categories are provided below:

On-site Local Fuel Supply: This category involves the delivery of fuel to Burnet County’s on-site location at the Precinct #1 Barn in Burnet, Texas. A fuel management system and automation system is required for this category.

Off-site Fuel Supply: This category involves the provision of off-site stations located throughout the State of Texas. A fuel management system and automation system is required for this category. The availability of numerous stations throughout the state is as important as price in this category. The County reserves the right to reject bids in this category that do not provide adequate access to stations throughout the state. The decision as to whether a bid provides adequate access to stations throughout the state shall be at the sole discretion of the County.

FUEL BID BASIS

The basis of the bid is the bidder’s differential of the prices listed in the Oil Price Information Services (OPIS) Pad 3 Report for Austin, Texas. The price differential quoted shall include all fees involved (service, delivery, etc.) in the on- and off-site consignment program, excluding taxes. Costs associated with the Bidder’s responsibility associated with the required fuel management and automation system shall also be included in the price differential. The differential must be a firm dollar amount during the contract and shall consist of four (4) decimal places and shall be mailto:bids@burnetcountytexas.org mailto:bids@burnetcountytexas.org identified by the bidder as either positive or negative. All bids must be submitted on the attached form.

The OPIS price, bidder’s differential, and taxes shall be added together for the price per gallon to be charged to Burnet County. The price per gallon shall be adjusted each week in accordance with the OPIS report, but the bidder’s differential shall remain constant throughout the term of the contract.

FUEL MANAGEMENT AND AUTOMATION SYSTEM

The Fuel Management and Automation System is required for both on-site and off-site fuel supply categories. In these categories the Bidder is responsible for all costs associated with the fuel management and automation system, including the replacement of lost or stolen cards.

The County will provide a 110-volt ac outlet and telephone line for the on-site fuel supply. The Bidder shall be required to provide all other equipment, materials, and cards associated with an on-site fuel supply management and automation system, including the replacement of lost or stolen cards. If necessary the Bidder shall be required to purchase the existing on-site fuel inventory at a price based upon the successful bid.

HISTORICALLY UNDERUTILIZED BUSINESSES (HUB) POLICY

I. POLICY STATEMENT

The Burnet County Commissioners Court, being the policy development and budgetary control unit of county government, will strive to ensure that all businesses, regardless of size, economic, social or ethnic status have an equal opportunity to participate in the County’s procurement processes. The County is committed to promote full and equal business opportunity for all businesses to supply the goods and services needed to support the mission and operations of county government, and seeks to encourage the use of certified historically underutilized businesses (HUBs) through the use of race, ethnic and gender neutral means. It is the policy of Burnet County to involve certified HUBs to the greatest extent feasible in the County’s procurement of goods, equipment, services and construction projects while maintaining competition and quality of work standards. The County affirms the good faith efforts of firms who recognize and practice similar business standards.

II. DEFINITIONS

Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs), also known as a disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE), are generally business enterprises at least 51% of which is owned, and the management and daily business operations are controlled by one or more persons who is/are socially and economically disadvantaged because of his or her identification as a member of certain groups, including women, Black Americans, Mexican Americans and other Americans of Hispanic origin, Asian Americans and American Indians.

Certified HUBs includes business enterprises that meet the definition of a HUB and who meet the certification requirements of certification agencies recognized by Burnet County.

Businesses include firms, corporations, sole proprietorships, vendors, supplier’s contractors, subcontractors, professionals and other similar references when referring to a business that provides goods and/or services regardless of the commodity category.

Statutory BID limit refers to the Texas Local Government Code provisions that require competitive proposals for many items/services valued at greater than $100,000.

III. POLICY GUIDELINES

A. Burnet County, its contractors, their subcontractors and suppliers, as well as all vendors of goods, equipment and services shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, gender, age, religion, national origin, citizenship, mental or physical disability, veteran’s status or political affiliation in the award and/or performance of contracts. All entities doing business or anticipating doing business with County shall support, encourage and implement affirmative steps toward a common goal of establishing equal opportunity for all citizens and businesses of the County.

B. Burnet County will use and recognize the State of Texas Historically Underutilized Business certification process in conjunction with the implementation of this policy.

The County may recognize other agencies’ certification processes recognized by the State of Texas. Burnet County reserves the right to review the certification status of any vendor applying to do business with the County. The review will be accomplished to determine the validity and authenticity of the vendor’s certification as a HUB.

C. The Commissioners Court may establish HUB target goals. Through a systematic approach of soliciting quotes, BIDs and proposals from certified HUBs and in compliance with applicable state and federal law this policy will strive to meet those goals.

1. Target goals should consider:

a. The availability of HUB firms within the specific category of goods or services to be procured; and

b. The diversity of the County’s population.

2. The goals should be reviewed and amended periodically.

3. The program may apply to all County procurements including construction and professional services.

4. Particular attention will be given to HUB participation on purchases in excess of the statutory BID limit.

5. Commissioners Court will use good faith efforts to meet the goals of this policy.

D. Burnet County will actively seek and encourage HUBs to participate in all facets of the procurement process by:

1. Utilizing the State of Texas Historically Underutilized Business vendor database.

2. Advertising BIDs on the County’s website and in the local newspaper.

3. Providing BID notice to minority Chambers of Commerce within Burnet County, if applicable.

E. As prescribed by law, the purchase of one or more items costing in excess of the statutory BID limit must comply with the competitive BID process. Where possible, those BIDs will be structured to include and encourage the participation of HUB firms in the procurement process.

F. A HUB Policy statement shall be included in all specifications. The County will consider the RESPONDENT’s responsiveness to the HUB Policy in the evaluation of BIDs and proposals. Failure to demonstrate a good faith effort to comply with the County’s HUB policy may result in a BID or proposal being considered non-responsive to specifications.

G. The Purchasing Department will actively search the State Comptroller’s HUB vendor list in the quotation process for purchases under the statutory BID limit.

H. Nothing in this policy shall be construed to require the County to award a contract other than to the lowest responsive RESPONDENT as required by law. This policy is narrowly tailored in accordance with applicable law.

IV. ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDELINES

A. The Purchasing Office shall serve as the County’s HUB Office with responsibility for the implementation, monitoring and general operations of the HUB policy. The Purchasing Director shall serve as the County HUB Officer.

1. The HUB Officer will establish procedures to implement this policy across the full spectrum of the procurement process. The County HUB Office will periodically review with department head and elected officials regarding procurement opportunities.

2. Managing the policy and training buyers and other County personnel in order to meet County goals will be the responsibility of the HUB Office.

3. The HUB Office will cooperate with other local government entities to increase HUB participation throughout the county and region. The HUB Office is encouraged to participate in educational and other outreach programs to assist HUB firms.

4. Any complaints and/or recommendations regarding the implementation of this policy will be received and reviewed by the HUB Officer. Further, the HUB Office will audit for compliance to the HUB Policy on eligible projects after award, during the performance of the contract and after completion, while also making any recommendations to Commissioner's Court regarding any irregularities or misrepresentations of facts as they relate to compliance with the policy. The HUB Office will review documentation submitted by HUB firms in compliance with this policy.
