STATEMENT_OF_NO_BID.pdf

The document is a Statement of No Bid form issued by the Hillsborough County Public Schools Procurement Services Department. This form is designed for vendors who do not intend to submit a proposal on a competitive solicitation to provide their reasons for declining and to prevent potential removal from the qualified bidders list. The form allows vendors to indicate reasons for non-participation, such as not offering the requested product, insufficient time to respond, product scheduling conflicts, inability to meet bond requirements, or other specified reasons. Vendors can submit this form via www.myvendorlink.com or email to contractsupport@hcps.net.

The form serves an administrative purpose for Hillsborough County Public Schools, helping the procurement team maintain an accurate and up-to-date vendor database. By completing and returning the Statement of No Bid, vendors can ensure they are not automatically removed from future bidding opportunities. The form requires basic company information including name, address, contact person, telephone, and email, and provides checkboxes for common reasons for not submitting a bid. Failure to respond may result in the vendor being deleted from the qualified bidders list, emphasizing the importance of communication even when not pursuing a specific solicitation.
