Bids that are mailed in or physically delivered must have one (1) copy clearly labeled “MASTER” (bearing original wet or electronic signatures) and one (1) copy labeled “COPY” on the bid. Bids not clearly marked and not submitted in a sealed envelope will be rejected. If discrepancies are found between the MASTER and the COPY, the “MASTER” bid will prevail over all others.

Any bid mailed in, or hand delivered must be received and time stamped on or before the date and time specified in the Time Schedule identified in Article V, to be considered timely delivery. It is the policy of the DCA to make every effort to ensure that all bids have been received and properly time stamped; however, bidders are ultimately responsible for ensuring timely receipt of their bid. Bidders may verify receipt of their bid by contacting the person identified in the cover letter of this IFB.

2. All bids shall include the documents identified on the IFB Checklist (Attachment 7). Bids not including the proper "Required Attachments" or that do not meet the basic bid requirements shall be deemed non-responsive. A non-responsive bid is one that does not meet the basic bid requirements and is justification for rejection.

3. All documents requiring a signature can be signed electronically or via original, blue, wet-ink signature of a person authorized to bind the bidding firm.

4. Bids must be submitted for the performance of all the services described herein. Any deviation from the work specifications shall not be considered and shall cause a bid to be rejected.

5. A bid may be rejected if it is conditional or incomplete, or if it contains any alterations of form or other irregularities of any kind. DCA may reject any or all bids and may waive any immaterial deviation in a bid. The DCA’s waiver of immaterial defect shall in no way modify the IFB document or excuse the bidder from full compliance with all requirements if awarded the agreement.

6. Costs incurred for developing bids and in anticipation of award of the agreement are entirely the responsibility of the bidder and shall not be charged to DCA.

7. An individual who is authorized to bind the bidding firm contractually must sign the Bidder Certification Sheet (Attachment 1). The signature must indicate the title or position that the individual holds in the firm. An unsigned bid shall be rejected.

8. A bidder may modify a bid after its submission by withdrawing its original bid and resubmitting a new bid prior to the bid submission deadline. Bidder modifications offered in any other manner, oral or written, shall not be considered.

9. A bidder may withdraw its bid by submitting a written withdrawal request to the State, signed by the bidder or an authorized agent. A bidder may thereafter submit a new bid prior to the bid submission deadline. Bids may not be withdrawn without cause subsequent to the bid submission deadline.

10. The DCA may modify the IFB prior to the date fixed for submission of bids by the issuance of an addendum to all parties who received a bid package.

11. The DCA reserves the right to reject all bids. The DCA reserves the right to reject any bid that it deems not cost reasonable or for any other reason it deems a bid does not meet the requirements of this IFB. The DCA is not required to award an agreement as a result of this IFB.

12. Before submitting a response to this solicitation, bidders should review, correct all errors, and confirm compliance with the IFB requirements.

13. The DCA does not accept alternate agreement language from a prospective contractor. A bid with such language shall be considered a counter proposal and will be rejected. The State’s General Terms and Conditions (GTC) are not negotiable.

14. No oral understanding or oral agreement shall be binding on either party.

15. “The State of California seeks to realize the potential benefits of GenAI, through the development and deployment of GenAI tools, while balancing the risks of these new technologies.

Bidder/Offeror must notify the State in writing if it: (1) intends to provide GenAI as a deliverable to the State; or (2), intends to utilize GenAI, including GenAI from third parties, to complete all or a portion of any deliverable that materially impacts: (i) functionality of a State system, (ii) risk to the State, or (iii) Contract performance. For avoidance of doubt, the term “materially impacts” shall have the meaning set forth in State Administrative Manual (SAM) § 4986.2 Definitions for GenAI.

Failure to report GenAI to the State may result in disqualification. The State reserves the right to seek any and all relief to which it may be entitled to as a result of such nondisclosure.

Upon notification by a Bidder/Offeror of GenAI as required, the State reserves the right to incorporate GenAI Special Provisions into the final contract or reject bids/offers that present an unacceptable level of risk to the State.

Government Code 11549.64 defines “Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI)” as an artificial intelligence system that can generate derived synthetic content, including text, images, video, and audio that emulates the structure and characteristics of the system’s training data.”

VIII. PROHIBITION ON TAX DELINQUENTS:

1. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 10295.4, persons or companies identified as the largest tax delinquents by the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) or the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) shall be disqualified from bidding and ineligible to enter into any agreement with the state for non-IT goods or services. Any agreement entered into in violation of section 10295.4 is void and unenforceable.

2. Prior to executing any state agreement or renewal for non-IT goods or services, the DCA shall verify that the proposed awardee(s) is not on a prohibited list by checking both the FTB and CDTFA websites.

IX. LOSS LEADER:

It is unlawful for any person engaged in business within this state to sell or use any article or product as a “loss leader” as defined in Section 17030 of the Business and Professions Code.

X. EVALUATION AND SELECTION PROCESS:

1. Each bid will be checked for the presence or absence of required information in conformance with the submission requirements of this IFB.

2. The DCA will evaluate each bid to determine its responsiveness to all IFB requirements. All bidders must meet the minimum qualifications, as stated in Article IV – Minimum Qualifications for Bidders and provide all of the required attachments as outlined in the Attachment 7 – IFB Checklist to be considered responsive.

Drug Testing Services

3. Bids that contain false or misleading statements, or which provide references, which do not support an attribute or condition claimed by the bidder, may be rejected. If in the opinion of the DCA, information submitted by the bidder was intended to mislead the DCA in its evaluation of the bid and the attribute, condition, or capability is a requirement of the IFB, it will be the basis for rejection of the bid.

4. The final selection will be made based on the lowest responsive bid. In the event of a tie in the bid amount, a tiebreaker will be decided by a coin toss observed by witnesses. Affected bidders will be invited to witness the coin toss.

XI. AWARD AND PROTEST:

1. Award of Contract:

The contract shall be awarded based on the responsive/responsible bidder submitting the lowest average Grand Total for Drug Testing Services stated on the Bidder’s Cost Sheet.

Award if made will be made within ninety (90) days (if no protest of the award is received) after the scheduled date for the Intent to Award. If a protest is received, the Award, if made, will be after the protest is resolved.

Whenever an agreement is awarded under a procedure that provides for competitive bidding, but the agreement is not to be awarded to the low bidder, the low bidder shall be notified by telegram, electronic facsimile transmission, overnight courier, or personal delivery five (5) working days prior to the award of the agreement.

2. Protest:

All protests must be made in writing, signed by an officer of the company or individual authorized to do so and submitted within five (5) working days of the State’s posting of its intent to award. An original copy of the protest must be mailed (i.e. certified mail with return receipt requested) to:

Department of General Services Office of Legal Services Attention: Bid Protest Coordinator 707 3rd Street, 7th Floor, Suite 7-330 West Sacramento, CA 95605 Email: OLSProtests@dgs.ca.gov

XIII. AGREEMENT EXECUTION AND PERFORMANCE:

The agreement will be executed only upon the State's acceptance of the Contractor's certificates of insurance, bonds, licenses, and permits, when such items are required. Should the Contractor fail to commence work at the agreed upon time, the DCA, upon five (5) days written notice to the Contractor, reserves the right to terminate the Agreement. In addition, the Contractor shall be liable to the State for the difference between Contractor's bid price and the actual cost of performing work by the second lowest bidder or by another Contractor.

2. The lowest responsive bidder shall enter into an Agreement with the State, which will be prepared on a State of California Standard Agreement.

3. All performance under this agreement shall be completed on or before the termination date of the Agreement.

4. Should it become necessary to modify the terms of the resulting contract, those modifications may be made through a written amendment to the contract to the extent allowable by State Contracting Manual (SCM), Volume 1, Chapter 5, section 5.81.

XV. DARFUR CONTRACTING ACT OF 2008:

Effective January 1, 2009, all Invitations for Bids (IFB) or Requests for Proposals (RFP) for goods or services must address the requirements of the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008 (Act). (Public Contract Code sections 10475, et seq.; Stats. 2008, Ch. 272.) The Act was passed by the California Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting with “scrutinized” companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur region is a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code section 10475.

A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for a contract with a State agency for goods or services. (Public Contract Code section 10477(a).)

Therefore, Public Contract Code section 10478 (a) requires a company that currently has (or within the previous three years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States to certify that it is not a “scrutinized” company when it submits a bid or proposal to a State agency (See # 1 on Attachment 6).

A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a contract with a State agency for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services (DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code section 10477(b) (See #2 on Attachment 6).

XVI. SMALL BUSINESS ENTERPRISE PREFERENCE:

Overview: Current law encourages state departments to first consider a Small Business Enterprise (Small)/Microbusiness Enterprise (Micro) for contracting opportunities. The DCA is committed to supporting Small/Micro business participation in state contracting and seeks to use certified Small/Micro businesses whenever possible.

The State of California provides a five percent (5%) preference to Small/Micro Business proposers. This 5% preference is also provided to Non-Small Businesses that commit to subcontract, with one or more California-certified Small/Micro businesses, at least 25% of the net bid price, as specified below. The standard contract language for the preference programs can be found at https://www.dgs.ca.gov/PD/Services/Page-Content/Procurement-Division-Services-List-Folder/Apply-for-or-Re-apply-as-Small-Business-Disabled-Veteran-Business-Enterprise. For the purposes of this section, the definitions specified in Title 2, California Code of Regulations (CCR), §1896.4 shall apply unless otherwise noted.

https://www.dgs.ca.gov/PD/Services/Page-Content/Procurement-Division-Services-List-Folder/Apply-for-or-Re-apply-as-Small-Business-Disabled-Veteran-Business-Enterprise https://www.dgs.ca.gov/PD/Services/Page-Content/Procurement-Division-Services-List-Folder/Apply-for-or-Re-apply-as-Small-Business-Disabled-Veteran-Business-Enterprise

Drug Testing Services

Questions regarding certification of small businesses should be directed to the Office of Small Business and DVBE Services (OSDS) at (916) 375-4940. See below for an example of how a Small Business preference is applied.

*Note:

the 5% SB preference is calculated from the lowest net bid received (0.05 x = $) and that value is then applied to all SB bids.

XVII. TARGET AREA CONTRACT PREFERENCE ACT (TACPA) (if applicable):

Refer to https://www.documents.dgs.ca.gov/DGS/FMC/PDF/std830.pdf for more information.

XVIII. DISABLED VETERAN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE PROGRAM (DVBE) PARTICIPATION:

Section 10115 et seq. of the Public Contract Code, and Section 999 et seq. of the Military and Veterans Code requires a goal of three percent (3%) for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation for all contracts on an agency-wide basis of $25,000.00 and over unless exempted due to the services provided.

DVBE participation requirements are being waived for this IFB.

XIX. DVBE INCENTIVE OPTION:

The State is committed to achieving legislatively established goals for the participation of DVBEs in all state contracts and seeks to use certified DVBE business whenever possible. Therefore, the State requests your voluntary participation in reporting any certified DVBEs including yourself, that will be used in the performance of this Agreement. An explanation of the Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Program (DVBE) requirements can be found at the Internet web site:
