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 standardized form allows potential vendors to formally decline participation in a competitive solicitation without negatively impacting their future bidding opportunities. The form provides multiple checkboxes for vendors to indicate reasons for non-participation, such as not offering the requested product, insufficient response time, scheduling conflicts, or inability to meet bond requirements. Vendors can submit this form via www.myvendorlink.com or email to contractsupport@hcps.net.

The form serves an administrative purpose by helping Hillsborough County Public Schools maintain an accurate and current qualified bidders list. By completing and returning the Statement of No Bid, vendors can prevent automatic removal from future bid opportunities while formally documenting their decision not to propose on a specific competitive solicitation. The form requires basic company information including name, address, contact person, telephone, and email, and includes a signature and date line for official documentation. Failure to respond to solicitations may result in the vendor being deleted from the qualified bidders list, emphasizing the importance of communication even when not submitting a bid.
