Seller_Flat _Printing Program_Checklist~7.pdf

This document is a seller checklist for the City of Philadelphia Procurement Department's Flat Printing Program, outlining the submission requirements for bidders responding to a printing services contract opportunity in Pennsylvania. The checklist guides sellers through a twelve-step process to submit quotes for flat printing services, with the award to be made as a whole or by line item, whichever serves the City's best interest, to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. All items must be quoted by sellers to maintain eligibility for award. Bidders must complete each tab within the PHLContracts online portal, including the General Tab, Items Tab, Questions Tab, Terms & Conditions Tab, Attachments Tab, and Summary Tab, ensuring all mandatory fields are completed and validation warnings are addressed before final submission.

The submission process requires sellers to enter unit costs and optional discounts for each line item, answer all mandatory questions, accept the bid terms and conditions, and upload any required supporting documentation through the online portal. While the Local Business Entity (LBE) certification question must be answered to proceed, the LBE Program does not apply to the Flat Printing Program. Bidders must review their complete quote summary, resolve any red validation warnings, and submit through the PHLContracts.phila.gov portal. No services should be delivered or provided until official notification of award is received from the City department.
