STATEMENT_OF_NO_BID.pdf

This is a Statement of No Bid form used by Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) Procurement Services Department in Florida for vendors declining to submit proposals on competitive solicitations. The form is designed to capture essential vendor information including company name, address, contact person, telephone number, and email address, along with the specific reason(s) for declining to bid. Vendors may indicate reasons such as not offering the product or equivalent, insufficient time to respond, scheduling conflicts, inability to meet bond requirements, or other specified reasons. Completed forms must be submitted via www.myvendorlink.com or emailed to contractsupport@hcps.net. The form includes space for multiple vendor entries and signatures with corresponding dates.

Failure to respond with a Statement of No Bid may result in the vendor's name being removed from HCPS's qualified bidder list. The form applies to the Fire Protection System Services solicitation, which seeks certified firms to provide maintenance and repair services for pre-engineered and engineered CO2 automatic fire extinguisher systems and sprinkler systems across HCPS sites. The District requires separate vendors for inspection and repair services, with the current District Safety Office awarded vendor for inspection being ineligible to perform repairs on the same systems. Contractors must implement District procedures and policies for fire protection system services and repairs at all HCPS locations.
