However, failure to attend the pre-bid conference shall not relieve the bidder of responsibility for information discussed at the conference. Furthermore, failure to attend the pre-bid conference and inspection does not relieve the successful bidder from the necessity of furnishing materials or performing any work that may be required to complete the work in accordance with the specification with no additional cost to the owner.

The Jefferson Parish Council reserves the right to reject all bids and to reject bids for just cause, pursuant to the law. Jefferson Parish and its partners as the recipients of federal funds are fully committed to awarding a contract(s) to firm(s) that will provide high-quality services and that are dedicated to diversity and to containing costs. Thus, Jefferson Parish strongly encourages the involvement of small businesses, minority businesses, women's business enterprises, and veteran-owned businesses to stimulate participation in procurement and assistance programs.
