Quotes must remain valid for 30 days from submission. The contract will be awarded to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid. SORTA reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids in their entirety or in part.

Failure to meet the quality requirements of a contract is a significant factor to consider in determining satisfactory performance.
