Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible firm on a lump-sum basis. Firms that do not bid on all line items in the pricing proposal shall be deemed non-responsive and ineligible for consideration. The successful firm must comply with all applicable Equal Employment Opportunity Laws and Regulations and certify non-subject status to Ukraine/Russia-related economic sanctions imposed by California or the United States Government.
