However, SAIF does not guarantee the award of any contract as a result of this RFP.

2. At SAIF’s discretion, any representation made by a proposer in response to this RFP, whether verbal or written, will be incorporated into any contract between SAIF and the proposer.

3. This RFP provides instructions for the preparation of a proposal that will address all

RFP requirements. This RFP is not an offer to contract. Only the execution of a written contract will obligate SAIF, in accordance with the terms contained in the contract.

4. SAIF will screen all proposals to ensure compliance with RFP specifications. Those proposals that do not meet minimum requirements will be classified as “nonresponsive.”

SAIF will disqualify all nonresponsive proposals from further evaluation. Responsive proposals will be evaluated based on the criteria in section G, Selection Criteria.

5. SAIF will not pay any costs a proposer incurs in preparing and submitting its proposal or in negotiating and signing a contract, all of which will be the sole responsibility of the proposer. Any due diligence conducted by a proposer is at the proposer’s expense. All proposals become the property of SAIF upon delivery to SAIF.

6. SAIF reserves the right:

a. To amend this RFP in any manner prior to award of a contract (SAIF will notify all responsive proposers if SAIF amends the RFP);

b. To excuse any proposer from any RFP requirement if SAIF deems it to be in

SAIF’s interest to do so;

Page 3 of 22: RFP 506 - Salem Campus Window Washing and On-call Waterproofing Services

e. To accept or reject any proposal even if all requirements have been met.

7. SAIF is subject to Oregon’s public records laws. Subject to statutory exemptions from disclosure, which may or may not apply to all or a portion of a proposal, once the RFP process has been completed, proposals will be subject to disclosure if SAIF receives a request to do so. If the proposer believes any part of its proposal constitutes material that is exempt from disclosure, the proposer must clearly identify that material when submitting the proposal and the statutory basis for the exemption. Proposers may not identify the entirety of a proposal as exempt from disclosure.

Proposer further certifies and agrees that it has not and will not discriminate in its employment practices with regard to race, creed, age, religious affiliation, sex, disability, sexual orientation, or national origin, and it has not and will not discriminate against a subcontractor in the awarding of a subcontract because the subcontractor is a minority-owned, woman-owned, or emerging small business enterprise certified under ORS 200.055.

3. If the proposer has been certified by Oregon’s Certification Office for Business

Contractor shall not use Confidential Information for purposes other than those directly related to the purposes of this contract. Contractor shall not disclose Confidential

Information to third parties without SAIF's prior written consent. Contractor may disclose

Confidential Information to Contractor’s employees or consultants only as permitted by this contract, only on a “need-to-know” basis, and only after the employee or consultant has agreed to be bound by all of the terms of this contract related to the nondisclosure of information.

Contractor without the use of SAIF’s Confidential Information.

Page 8 of 22: RFP 506 - Salem Campus Window Washing and On-call Waterproofing Services any other remedy available to SAIF, SAIF may seek injunctive relief related to Contractor’s disclosure or potential disclosure of Confidential Information.

Contractor's performance. Contractor shall determine the appropriate means and manner of performing the Services.

“agent” of SAIF, as those terms are used in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 30.265.

Services will not violate any such law, ordinance, regulation, requirement, or order.

6.4 Contractor is qualified to do business in the State of Oregon and has the authority to enter into this contract.

6.5 If Contractor is currently employed by the State of Oregon or the federal government, Contractor’s performance under this contract creates no potential or actual conflict of interest as defined by ORS Chapter 244 and no rules or regulations of

Contractor’s employing agency (state or federal) prohibit Contractor’s activities under this contract.

6.6 Contractor has no interest, and will not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, that would conflict with its obligation to perform under this contract.

7. Subcontracts/Assignment/Successors in Interest

7.1 Contractor shall not assign or transfer any rights in this contract, or delegate any duties, without first obtaining SAIF's prior written consent, which consent may not be withheld unreasonably.

Contractor’s successor agrees in writing to assume Contractor’s duties under this contract.

Contractor of any of its duties under this contract.

8. Access to Records

8.1 Contractor shall maintain all financial records relating to the subject matter of this contract in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

13. Controlling Law/Venue This contract is to be construed according to the laws of the

State of Oregon without regard to principles of conflicts of law, and applicable federal law.

Any action or suit brought by the parties relating to this contract must be brought and conducted exclusively in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Marion County in

Salem, Oregon, or if a claim must be brought in a federal forum, in the United States

District Court for the District of Oregon. Contractor hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of those courts, waives any objection to venue in those courts, and waives any claim that either forum is an inconvenient forum.

14. Force Majeure Neither party is responsible for delay or default caused by fire, riot, acts of God, war, terrorism, or other similar events beyond a party's reasonable control.

15. Severability If any term of this contract is determined, to any extent, to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties intend that the remainder of this contract not be affected, and each remaining term of this contract be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any invalid or unenforceable term is to be replaced by a mutually acceptable term that comes closest to the intention of the parties underlying the invalid or unenforceable term. If deletion or replacement of the invalid or unenforceable term materially changes this contract or causes completion of either party’s obligations to be unreasonable, either party may terminate this contract without further obligation or liability upon written notice to the other party.

16. Waiver The failure of either party to enforce any term of this contract does not constitute a waiver by that party of that or any other term.

17. Amendment This contract may not be supplemented, extended, or amended, in any manner whatsoever, except by written instrument signed by the parties.

18. No Third-Party Beneficiaries SAIF and Contractor are the only parties to this contract and the only persons who may enforce this contract.

States Postal Service, postage prepaid, to Contractor or SAIF at the addresses set forth below, or to such other addresses as either party may later indicate pursuant to this section.

Postal Service only is deemed to be given five days after mailing.

Services without the advance written consent of SAIF.

General [on-site] Facilities Requirements.

As a workers’ compensation carrier, SAIF knows that accidents can happen. If an accident that results in the release and/or exposure of OPIM (defined as blood or “other potentially infectious materials”) occur, Contractor shall immediately notify SAIF’s Facilities Manager with details as to the location, date, and time of the release of OPIM, so that SAIF may take corrective actions to limit potential exposure to others. Contractor’s failure to report such incidents may be construed as a breach of contract. Contractor must ensure its staff is trained annually in the proper use of personal protective equipment, and safe materials handling.

Contractor shall schedule all Services in advance with SAIF’s Facilities Manager and shall check-in and out at each visit with a member of SAIF’s Facilities staff. Except as noted below, Contractor shall perform the Services outside business hours of 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. pacific time, Monday through Friday. However, any work that in the opinion of SAIF’s

Facilities staff will disturb building users must be performed outside normal business hours, and scheduled in advance with SAIF’s Facilities Manager.

Contractor shall protect surrounding structures including roof membranes and vehicles in work areas. Contractor is responsible for any damage to SAIF property or employees, or to the persons or property of any third-party caused by Contractor’s performance of the

Services. Contractor shall remove and properly dispose of all trash and debris generated by

Contractor’s performance of the Services.

Contractor shall minimize the operation of vehicles or gasoline-powered equipment (e.g., saws, mowers, blowers) adjacent to a large intake vent located on the east side of the

Parkway building next to the employee parking lot, and will not allow any such equipment to idle in this location in order to minimize the introduction of exhaust fumes into the building.

SAIF is a Tobacco-Free Workplace. SAIF campuses are entirely tobacco free, including all SAIF buildings, leased or owned, all parking garages and parking lots, and all areas where SAIF-sponsored off-site conferences and meetings are held. Contractor’s employees

Page 15 of 22: RFP 506 - Salem Campus Window Washing and On-call Waterproofing Services or agents may not use tobacco products or any form of smokeless devices while they are on

SAIF-owned or SAIF-controlled campuses. Examples of prohibited products implicated in this policy include, but are not limited to, cigarettes, cigars, pipes, e-cigarettes, vaporizers, and smokeless tobacco.

Contractor and Contractor’s employees shall not use SAIF’s telephones for personal use except in the event of an emergency.

Contractor shall contact SAIF’s Facilities Manager during regular business hours, or SAIF’s after-hours on-call provider at 800.346.4544 x54 for any issues that arise during the

Services, including, but not limited to, broken glass, an unlocked door, broken water pipes, or any other condition that would lead a reasonable person to believe such condition could be a hazard to human health or safety, or could be a sign of property, structural, or building damage.

Contractor shall supply Safety Data Sheets (“SDS”) to SAIF Facilities for all new or replacement materials Contractor proposes to use prior to using them. SAIF shall make available to Contractor all SDS for hazardous substances that SAIF has placed on or about the facilities in which Contractor may be working. SAIF’s SDS and hazardous communication policies and procedures are available in the Corporate Services Division and can be accessed by contacting 503.315.3102.

3.

Page 16 of 22: RFP 506 - Salem Campus Window Washing and On-call Waterproofing Services three business days of the conviction. Failure of the Contractor to comply with the terms of this section shall be a material breach of the contract, and may result in the immediate termination of this, or any other, contract with SAIF.

5) Nothing in this requirement shall be construed as any attempt to impose any requirement that violates any governmental law, rule, or regulation limiting the timing or nature of any such criminal background checks by potential applicants of Contractor

(generally referred to as “ban the box” restrictions). Contractor is solely responsible for performing any criminal background checks in accordance with all relevant laws, regulations, rules, and ordinances.

Health and Safety Protocol

(Note: This Health and Safety Protocol may appear as Exhibit C of the contract.)

Esteemed SAIF vendors and business partners:

As COVID-19 continues to affect our daily lives, SAIF extends its deepest sympathies to anyone who the virus has impacted negatively, either directly or indirectly. Along these lines, as a leader in Oregon Workers’ Compensation Insurance, SAIF strives to protect the health and safety of our employees, policyholders, and business partners. SAIF is proud of the steps we have taken to protect one another and our customers from COVID-19 exposure. Unfortunately, it remains a top priority that these efforts continue. Following updated CDC recommendations on protection from respiratory viruses, it is paramount that

SAIF vendors and business partners do not visit SAIF facilities if you or an employee are feeling ill, exhibiting symptoms from common respiratory illnesses similar to COVID-19, the flu, or RSV, or have recently tested positive for any of these viruses. Likewise, if you or one of your employees has tested positive for any of these viruses after a recent in-person visit to SAIF facilities or with SAIF employees, it is essential that you immediately notify SAIF of the positive result so that we can take the necessary precautions to avoid further spread.

Thank you for your concern and cooperation. By working together, we can help diminish the spread of respiratory viruses and limit the deleterious effects of its associated symptoms and illness. Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns. SAIF greatly appreciates your services and cooperation.
