About this file

This is a Responsibility Inquiry attachment (Attachment G) to Request for Proposal #S-16500-00015514 issued by the State of Oregon, Secretary of State's Office, Audits Division, for a Hosted Municipal Accounting Reporting Solution (MARS). The document serves as a pre-award evaluation tool to assess proposer qualifications and financial viability prior to contract execution. The RFP seeks a proposer capable of designing, implementing, supporting, and maintaining a hosted software solution for municipal accounting and reporting purposes. The attachment does not specify project quantities, response dates, due dates, site visits, bidder conferences, award dates, or contract terms, as these details are contained in other RFP documents.

The Responsibility Inquiry form requires proposers to demonstrate financial stability, relevant experience, and legal compliance through detailed responses to multiple certification questions. Proposers must confirm possession of appropriate financial resources, materials, equipment, facilities, and personnel to meet contractual obligations; document their performance history on similar contracts completed within budget and schedule constraints over the past five years; disclose any criminal or civil charges related to public contracts or fraud within the past three years; and certify the absence of contract terminations for default, lawsuits, outstanding judgments, bankruptcy filings, or financial distress. Additionally, proposers employing 50 or more full-time workers with a prospective contract price exceeding $500,000 must provide an unexpired Pay Equity Certificate from the Department of Administrative Services, unless the contract involves architectural, engineering, photogrammetric mapping, transportation planning, or land surveying services. An authorized representative must sign the form certifying the accuracy and completeness of all responses.
