SECTION D – AWARD

Bids must be submitted in accordance with all instructions in this ITB prior to the Bid Opening Date specified in OregonBuys for this ITB (see also Section A.3, Solicitation Schedule). Bids received after the Bid Opening Date will not be considered for award.

D.1 PRELIMINARY BID RESULTS

Agency may post preliminary bid results on the OregonBuys system. Such postings may not be correct and are not final. The posting of the preliminary bid results shall not operate as a representation by Agency that any Bid submitted was complete, sufficient, lawful in any respect, or otherwise in substantial compliance with the ITB requirements.

D.2 METHOD OF AWARD

Provided Agency does not cancel the solicitation or reject all Bids pursuant to OAR 137-049-0270, Award will be made to the responsible Bidder submitting the lowest responsive Bid, calculated as follows.

(1) LUMP SUM. If the ITB requires a lump sum Bid, without additive or deductive alternates, or if Agency elects not to award additive or deductive alternates, Bids will be compared based on lump sum prices or lump sum base Bid prices, as applicable. If the ITB calls for a lump sum base Bid, plus additive or deductive alternates, the total Bid price will be calculated by adding to or deducting from the base Bid those alternates selected by Agency, for the purpose of comparing Bids.

(2) UNIT PRICE. If the Bid includes unit pricing for estimated quantities, the total Bid price will be calculated by multiplying the estimated quantities by the unit prices submitted by the Bidder and adjusting for any additive or deductive alternates selected by Agency, for the purpose of comparing Bids. Agency will specify within the ITB the estimated quantity of the procurement to be used for determination of the low Bidder. In the event of mathematical discrepancies between unit price and any extended price calculations submitted by the Bidder, the unit price governs. See OAR 137-049-0350(2)(b).

Agency may award by Bid item, groups of bid items or the entire Bid provided such award is in the public interest.

D.2.1 APPLICATION OF RECIPROCAL PREFERENCE. In determining the lowest responsive Bid, Agency will, in accordance with OAR 137-046-0310, add a percentage increase to the Bid of a Non-resident Bidder (see Attachment A, Form A-1) equal to the percentage, if any, of the preference given to that Bidder in the state in which the Bidder resides. Adjustments made to account for reciprocal preferences will be for Bid evaluation purposes only. No such adjustments shall operate to amend Bidder’s Bid or any Contract awarded pursuant thereto.

D.2.2 RESPONSIVENESS. For its Bid to be considered responsive, the Bidder must substantially comply in all material respects with applicable solicitation procedures and requirements and the solicitation documents. Bids may be considered nonresponsive and rejected if the Bid:

· includes non-approved equivalents where approval is required;

· takes exception to the Specifications or Plans or contractual terms of the ITB;

· is contingent upon Agency’s acceptance of Specifications, Plans, or Contract terms that conflict with or are in addition to those advertised in this ITB; or

· is unreadable.

In making a responsiveness determination, Agency may waive minor informalities as described in OAR 137-049-0350, and Agency may seek clarification of any response that, in its sole discretion, it deems necessary or advisable. However, Bidders may not supplement their Bids to provide for missing information.

D.2.3 RESPONSIBILITY. Prior to award of the Contract, Agency will evaluate whether the apparent successful Bidder meets the applicable standards of responsibility identified in ORS 279C.375(3) and OAR 137-049-0390. In doing so, Agency may investigate Bidder and request information in addition to that already required in this ITB in Attachment A, Form A-1, Responsibility Inquiry, when Agency, in its sole discretion, considers it necessary or advisable.

Agency shall notify the apparent successful Bidder, in Writing, of any other documentation required for it to complete its responsibility inquiry, which may include, but is not limited to: recent profit-and-loss history, current balance statements, assets-to-liabilities ratio (including number and amount of secured versus unsecured creditor claims), availability of short and long-term financing, bonding capacity, credit information, material, equipment, facility and personnel information, performance record of Contract performance, and similar information. Submission of a signed Bid shall constitute approval for Agency to obtain any information Agency deems necessary to conduct the evaluation.

Failure to promptly provide this information shall result in Bid rejection. Agency may postpone the award of the Contract after posting a notice of its intent to award (“Notice of Intent to Award”) to complete its investigation and evaluation. Failure of the apparent successful Bidder to demonstrate responsibility as required under OAR 137-049-0390 shall render the Bidder non-responsible and shall constitute grounds for Bid rejection, as required under OAR 137-049-0440.

D.3 REJECTION OF BIDS

D.3.1 REJECTION OF ALL BIDS. Agency may reject all Bids for good cause upon its finding that it is in the public interest to do so. Agency will issue written findings if all offers are rejected.

D.3.2 LIQUIDATED AND DELINQUENT DEBT. Agency may reject a particular Bid if a Bidder has liquidated and delinquent debt owed to the State or any department or agency of the State.

D.3.3 REJECTION OF PARTICULAR BIDS. Agency may reject a particular Bid for any of the reasons listed under OAR 137-049-0440.
