10. Standard Title VI/Nondiscrimination Assurances (DOT Order No. 1050.2A)

11. Non-Collusion Declaration for Public Works

The winning bidder must submit a non-collusion declaration for public works during the Agreement award process. Failure to submit a complete declaration shall be grounds for rejection of bid.

12. Bonds

Payment Bond Requirement: The successful bidder will be required to provide, prior to commencement of work under a Service Request price, a Payment Bond for one hundred percent (100%) of the total Service Request, if the Service Request price exceeds $25,000.

15. Darfur Contracting Act

A. The Darfur Contracting Act, Public Contract Code Sections 10475-10481, applies to any company that currently or within the previous three (3) years has had business activities or other operations outside of the United States. The Act was passed by the California Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting with “scrutinized” companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur region is a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code Section 10475. The winning bidder shall complete the Darfur Contracting Act Certification (ADM-0077) as part of the Agreement award process.

B. If your company has not, within the previous three (3) years, had any business activities or other operations outside of the United States, complete Option 1 on the ADM-0077.

C. A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code Section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for an Agreement with a State agency for goods or services (Pub. Cont. Code Section 10477(a)).

D. Therefore, Public Contract Code Section 10478(a) requires a company that currently has (or within the previous three (3) years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States to certify that it is not a “scrutinized” company, during the Agreement award process with a State agency.

E. A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a Contract with a State agency for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services (DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code Section 10477(b).

16. Price Quote Submittal

A. The price quote should be emailed as described below. The price quote must be received by the Caltrans, Division of Procurement and Contracts (DPAC), by dates and times shown in Section C, Price Quotation Requirements and Information.

B. The price quote email should be clearly marked with the IFPQ number, title, and ‘PRICE QUOTATION SUBMITTAL’, as shown in the following example:

E. Email to: wendy.kwong@dot.ca.gov

F. Pursuant to Government Code Section 14838.7, Caltrans must receive at least two (2) price quotes from certified SB/MBs or at least two (2) price quotes from DVBEs before it can make an Agreement award. Therefore, at Caltrans’ discretion, if only one price quote is received, the timeframe for receipt of price quotes may be extended in order to receive the minimum number of quotes required by the Government Code. All prospective bidders will be notified via email or telephone of any extensions.

G. Price quotes must include the performance of all the services described herein. Any attempt to modify the Price Quote Proposal document to deviate from the work specifications will not be considered and will cause a price quote to be rejected.

H. A price quote may be rejected if it is conditional, incomplete, or if it contains any alterations of form or other irregularities of any kind. Caltrans may reject any price quote on the basis that it is not responsive or from responsible bidder and may waive any immaterial deviation in a quote. Caltrans’ waiver of an immaterial defect shall in no way modify the IFPQ document or excuse the bidder from full compliance with all requirements if awarded the Agreement.

I. Costs for developing price quotes and in anticipation of award of the Agreement are entirely the responsibility of the bidder and shall not be charged to Caltrans.

J. A bidder may modify a price quote after its submission by first withdrawing the original price quote and then by resubmitting a new price quote prior to the price quote submittal deadline. Bidder modifications offered in any other manner, oral or written, will not be considered.

K. A bidder may withdraw a price quote by, prior to price quote submission deadline, submitting a written withdrawal request to Caltrans, at wendy.kwong@dot.ca.gov, signed by the bidder or an agent authorized in accordance with Section L, below. A bidder may thereafter submit a new price quote prior to the price quote submittal deadline. Price quotes may not be withdrawn without cause subsequent to the price quote submittal deadline.

L. Only an individual who is authorized to bind the bidding firm contractually shall sign the attached Bid/Bidder Certification Sheet. The signature must also indicate the title or position that the individual holds in the firm. An unsigned price quote may be cause for bid rejection.

M. Caltrans may modify the IFPQ prior to the date fixed for submission of price quotations by the issuance of an addendum sent to all parties who received an IFPQ package.

N. Caltrans reserves the right to reject all price quotes for reasonable cause.

O. Bidders are cautioned not to rely on Caltrans during its evaluation process to discover and report to the bidder any defects and errors in the submitted documents. Before submitting their documents, bidders should carefully proof them for errors and full adherence to the IFPQ requirements.

P. Where applicable, bidder should carefully examine work sites and specifications. Bidder shall investigate conditions, character, and quality of surface or subsurface materials or obstacles that might be encountered. No additions or increases to the Agreement amount will be made due to a lack of careful examination of work sites and specifications.

Q. Caltrans does not accept alternate Agreement language from a bidder. A price quote with such language will be considered a counter proposal and will be rejected. The State’s General Terms and Conditions (GTC 04/2017) are not negotiable. The GTC 04/2017 may be viewed at Internet site https://www.dgs.ca.gov/OLS/Resources/Page- Content/Office-of-Legal-Services-Resources-List-Folder/Standard-Contract-Language.

17. Evaluation and Selection

A. At the time of quote opening, each price quote will be checked for the presence or absence of required information in conformance with the submission requirements of this

IFPQ.

B. Caltrans will evaluate each price quote to determine its responsiveness to Caltrans’ needs.

C. Price quotes that contain false or misleading statements, or which provide references, which do not support an attribute or condition claimed by the bidder, shall be rejected.

D. The Agreement, if awarded, shall be awarded to the responsible bidder who submits the lowest price quote and meets all the specifications. A price quote meets the specifications if it complies with all the requirements in this solicitation. In the event of a tie quote, Caltrans will draw lots to determine the successful bidder. Only one (1) price quote may be submitted by an entity: individual, firm, partnership, corporation, joint venture, or combination thereof. Receipt of more than one (1) price quote from an entity will result in all quotes from that entity being rejected and returned to the bidder.

18. Standard Conditions of Service

A. Service shall not begin before the start date set forth in the Agreement. After all approvals have been obtained, and the Agreement is executed should Contractor fail to commence work at the agreed upon time, Caltrans, upon five (5) days written notice to contractor, reserves the right to terminate the Agreement. In addition, contractor shall be liable to Caltrans for the difference between contractor’s quote price and the actual cost of performing the work by the second low bidder or by another contractor.

B. All performance under the Agreement shall be completed on or before the expiration date of the Agreement.

C. Antitrust Provisions

The assignment made by Contractor and all additional assignments made by Subcontractors and suppliers shall be deemed to have been made and will become effective at the time the awarding body tenders final payment to Contractor without further acknowledgment or the necessity of tendering to the awarding body any written assignments.

2) If an awarding body or public purchasing body receives, either through judgment or settlement, a monetary recovery for a cause of action assigned under Government Code Sections 4550-4554, the assignor shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for actual legal costs incurred and may, upon demand, recover from the public body any portion of the recovery, including treble damages, and attributable overcharges that were paid by the assignor but were not paid by the public body as a part of the price quote, less the expenses incurred in obtaining that portion of the recovery.

3) Upon demand in writing by the assignor, the assignee shall, within one year from such demand, reassign the cause of action assigned under Government Code Sections 4550-4554 if the assignor has been or may have been injured by the violation of law for which the cause of action arose and (a) the assignee has not been injured thereby, or (b) the assignee declines to file a court action for the cause of action (See Government Code Section 4554).

D. If bidder is awarded Agreement and refuses to sign Agreement presented for signature within time and manner required, bidder will be liable to Caltrans for actual damages resulting to Caltrans therefrom or 10 percent (10%) of the amount quoted, whichever is less.

E.

F. No oral understanding or agreement shall be binding on either party.

19. Executive Order N-6-22 – Russia Sanctions

On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (the EO) regarding Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals.

“Economic Sanctions” refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law unless the contract has been Federalized (i.e. there is federal participation in any phase). By submitting a bid or proposal, Contractor represents that it is not a target of Economic Sanctions. Should the State determine Contractor is a target of Economic Sanctions or is conducting prohibited transactions with sanctioned individuals or entities, that shall be grounds for rejection of the Contractor’s bid/proposal any time prior to contract execution, or, if determined after contract execution, shall be grounds for termination by the State.

20. Executive Order N-12 – Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) Technology Use and Reporting

A. The State of California seeks to realize the potential benefits of GenAI, through the development and deployment of GenAI tools, while balancing the risks of these new technologies.

C. The State has developed a GenAI Reporting and Factsheet (STD 1000) to be completed by the Bidder / Offeror / Contractor.

D. Failure to submit the GenAI Reporting and Factsheet (STD 1000) will result in disqualification of the Bidder / Offeror / Contractor.

E. Failure to report GenAI to the State may void any resulting contract. The State reserves its right to seek any and all relief it may be entitled to as a result of such non-disclosure.

F. Upon receipt of a Bidder / Offeror / Contractor GenAI Reporting and Factsheet (STD 1000), the state reserves the right to incorporate GenAI Special Provisions into the final contract or reject bids/offers that present an unacceptable level of risk to the state.
