A Contractor that fails to comply with the certification requirement shall, after written notice, be allowed to cure the defect.

$10,000. (MVC § 999.7)

TIRE-DERIVED PRODUCTS PREFERENCE

Per Public Resources Code (PRC) section 42890 et seq., a 5 percent (5%) recycle preference is available for recycled tire products (also known as tire-derived products). When evaluating bids, application of the tire recycle preference is only applicable if both virgin products and recycled content products (RCP) are acceptable for a line item. Should only recycled content products be bid, then the preference is not calculated. Should a solicitation include a mix of line items containing both qualified and non-qualified tire-derived RCPs, the preference shall only apply to qualified line items. If line-item awards are made, the preference shall be applied, to the extent possible, so as to maximize award to bidders proposing recycled tire products (PRC section 42892).

Target Area Contract Preference Act (TACPA) Preference (STD. 830) This solicitation provides for the optional TACPA preference. Bidders are not required to apply for this preference. Denial of the TACPA preference request is not a basis for rejection of the bid/offer.

The TACPA workplace and workforce preferences will be evaluated for this solicitation. California-based companies seeking TACPA preferences will need to complete and submit preference request forms with the bid/offer. The following webpage contains required preference request forms and an interactive map to determine if a business is located within a TACPA qualified zone: Request-a Target-

BID EVALUATION – TIE BETWEEN BIDDERS

In the event of a precise tie between bidders, the CDCR procurement official will conduct a coin toss.

At least one witness must observe and document the coin toss. Affected bidders will be given the opportunity to attend the tie breaker coin toss. An email notification will be sent to the affected bidders at least 24 hours before the coin toss is conducted.

Note: In the event of a precise tie between the bid of an SB/MB and the bid of a DVBE that is also a SB/MB, the award shall go to the DVBE that is also an SB/MB. (Reference GC section 14838 (f) and 2 CCR section 1896.8(f)).

Note: Recycled tire product contracts will be awarded to the bidder whose product has the greatest percentage of recycled tire content if the fitness, quality, and price are equal.

SUPPLIER TERMS AND CONDITIONS / QUOTATION ATTACHMENTS

Quote responses that reference a supplier’s own terms and conditions, legal terms, or provisions that conflict with the State’s General Provisions shall be considered non-responsive and will be rejected.

The state objects to and will not evaluate or consider any additional terms or conditions submitted by a bidder.

CONFIDENTIALITY

During the evaluation of bids received in response to a competitive solicitation and prior to contract award information relating to bid evaluation is confidential. Any disclosure of confidential information by the bidder during the procurement process is a basis for rejecting the bidder’s proposal and finding the bidder ineligible. Total confidentiality during the procurement process is vital to preserve the integrity of the process.

RFQ Package Page 11 of 3

OBS 4007 (A) (Rev. )

Page 8 of any sanctions imposed under state law. By submitting a bid or proposal, Contractor represents that it is not a target of Economic Sanctions.
