The successful bidder shall have a minimum of five (5) years of experience in manufacturing ergonomic task chairs or as a representative of said manufacturer.

IFB #RW2421021 Page 6 of 11 manufacturer as well as their own company. Bidders shall provide documented quality control procedures that include receiving inspection standards.

Certified Test Reports (CTR):

Delivered products may be subject to additional testing to determine if delivered product meets specifications. If the delivered product doesn’t meet the specifications, CALPIA may terminate for default in accordance with General Provisions, Clause 75.

Contract Dollar Value:

Any contract resulting from this bid will expire three years from its effective date unless extended. However, in the event the ordering agency’s requirements are curtailed because of reducing requirements, cancellation of State programs, lack of fiscal appropriations, etc., the State shall be excused from purchasing any outstanding balances.

Quantities shown for each line item are estimated and are the anticipated contract purchase amount. The State will not be obligated to purchase the contractor’s excess inventory of any line item if actual purchases vary from the anticipated purchase pattern. The State reserves the right to order more or less of any line item.

Please Note:

Only bids quoted on the State’s own Cost Sheet will be considered. Bids submitted referencing supplier attachments, which include legal terms and conditions that conflict with the State’s general bid provisions shall be considered non-responsive and such bids shall be rejected. On the Cost Sheet if there is a discrepancy between the unit price and the extension price, the unit price shall prevail.

The CAP will contain the nature of the reported issue, what immediate actions are taking place to correct the problem, and how the problem is going to be prevented from occurring again. The CAP can also contain any other relevant information that the Contractor feels is necessary to explain the situation. CALPIA may issue a vendor performance report based on the circumstances.

Cost to Cover:

Any failure to perform its obligations under a contract that ensues from this IFB by the contractor shall, in addition to any other remedies available to CALPIA, entitle CALPIA to recover from the contractor the difference between the contractor’s price and an alternate supplier’s higher price in the event that CALPIA chooses to pay an alternate supplier a higher price for goods or services that the contractor fails to provide in a timely fashion.

Executive Order N-6-22 – Russia Sanctions

On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (the EO) regarding Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals. “Economic Sanctions” refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law. The EO directs state agencies to terminate contracts with, and to refrain from entering into any new contracts with, individuals or entities that are determined to be a target of Economic Sanctions. Accordingly, should the State determine Contractor is a target of Economic Sanctions or is conducting prohibited transactions with sanctioned individuals or entities, that shall be grounds for termination of this agreement.

The State shall provide Contractor with advance written notice of such termination, allowing Contractor at least 30 calendar days to provide a written response. Termination shall be at the sole discretion of the State.

Executive Order N-12-23 – Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI)

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 non-disclosure.

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.

The State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC) is a state mandated program that requires the reporting of all purchases made within 16 specified product categories. All state agencies are required to verify the recycled-content of all products purchased within each of these categories.

All businesses shall certify the minimum percentage in writing to the contracting officer or his or her representative, if not the exact percentage, of postconsumer recycled-content (PCRC) material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies offered or sold to the State regardless of whether the product meets the minimum content requirements specified in law (see reverse side). The certification shall be furnished under penalty of perjury. The certification shall be provided regardless of content, even if the product contains no recycled material. A State agency may waive the certification requirement if the percentage of postconsumer material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies can be verified in a written advertisement, including, but not limited to, a product label, a catalog, or a manufacturer or vendor Internet website.
