STATEMENT_OF_NO_BID.pdf

This is a Statement of No Bid form issued by Hillsborough County Public Schools Procurement Services Department for use by vendors declining to submit proposals on competitive solicitations. The form serves as an official notification mechanism for qualified bidders who choose not to respond to the district's requests for proposals. Vendors are instructed to complete and return the form via www.myvendorlink.com or email to contractsupport@hcps.net. The form requires vendors to provide company name, address, contact person, telephone number, and email address, along with identification of the specific solicitation being declined. Failure to respond with a Statement of No Bid may result in the vendor's name being deleted from Hillsborough County Public Schools' qualified bidders list, making it important for vendors to formally notify the district of their non-participation to maintain their vendor status.

The form provides multiple checkbox options for vendors to indicate reasons for declining to bid, including: not offering the product or equivalent, insufficient time to prepare a response, desire to be removed from future bid lists, inability to accommodate scheduling requirements, inability to meet bond requirements, or other specified reasons. The form includes signature and date lines for authorized company representatives and accommodates multiple companies on a single submission. This administrative document is essential for maintaining accurate vendor records and ensuring transparent procurement processes within the school district's contracting system.
