Cash discounts will not be considered in determining award; all cash discounts offered will be taken if earned. Bidder will list and deduct all trade discounts, educational discounts, and other discounts, not based on early payment from the bidder's prices quoted.

1.3. Bidder should enter Texas Identification Number System (TINS) number, full firm name and address of bidder on the face of this form. Enter in the space provided, if not shown.

1.4. Bid cannot be altered or amended after opening time. Alterations made before opening time should be initialed by bidder or his authorized agent. No bid can be withdrawn after opening time without approval by University based on an acceptable written reason.

1.5. University is exempt from State Sales Tax and Federal Excise Tax. Do not include in bid. Tax Exemption Certificate furnished upon request.

1.6. Responses to this IFB must be submitted on the Invitation Form per the instructions on the cover page, or as directed in BidNet. Only bids submitted through

BidNet will be accepted.

1.7. All questions regarding this bid must be directed to the Buyer noted on the bid document. Direct contact with the end-user/department is strictly prohibited and may result in disqualification of your bid.

2. AWARD NOTICE:

2.1. Pursuant to Texas Education Code, Sec. 51.9335, University reserves the right to make an award determined on the basis of best value.

2.2. University reserves the right to accept or reject all or part of any bid, waive any formalities or technical inconsistencies, delete any requirement or specification from this Invitation, or terminate this solicitation when deemed to be in University's best interest.

2.3. Bidder hereby assigns to University any and all claims for overcharges associated with this contract arising under the antitrust laws of the United States 15 U.S.C.A.

§1, et seq., and the antitrust laws of the State of Texas, Tex. Bus. & Comm. Code §15.01, et seq.

2.4. Pursuant to §231.006(d), Texas Family Code, regarding child support, the bidder certifies that the individual or business entity named in this bid is not ineligible to receive the specified payment and acknowledges that the contract may be terminated and payment may be withheld if this certification is inaccurate. Furthermore, any bidder subject to §231.006, Gov't Code, must include names and Social Security numbers of each person with at least 25% ownership of the business entity submitting the bid.

2.5. In case of tie bids, any award will be made pursuant to Rule § 20.36 (b)(3) in Title 34 of the Texas Administrative Code.

2.6. Bidder shall not assign any resulting contract or agreement resulting from this IFB without prior written approval from the University’s Purchasing Office.

2.7. Texas law authorizes institutions of higher education (defined by Section 61.003, Education Code) to use the group purchasing procurement method (ref. Sections

51.9335, 3.115 and 74.008, Education Code). Additional Texas institutions of higher education may therefore elect to enter into a contract with the successful Bidder under this IFB. In particular, Bidder should note that University is part of The University of Texas System (“UT System”), which is comprised of nine academic and six health universities described at http://www.utsystem.edu/institutions. UT System institutions routinely evaluate whether a contract/purchase order resulting from a procurement conducted by one of the institutions might be suitable for use by another, and if so, this could give rise to additional purchase volumes. As a result, in submitting its bid in response to this IFB, Bidder should consider proposing pricing and other commercial terms that take into account such higher volumes and other expanded opportunities that could result from the eventual inclusion of other institutions in the purchase contemplated by this IFB.

3. SPECIFICATIONS:

3.1. Unless specifically stated otherwise, any catalog, brand name or manufacturer's reference used in this IFB is descriptive (not restrictive) and is used to indicate type and quality desired. Bids on brands of like nature and quality will be considered. If bidding on other than referenced specifications, the bid MUST show manufacturer brand or trade name and description of product offered. Illustrations and complete descriptions of product offered should be made part of the bid.

If bidder does not identify exceptions to the specifications shown in this IFB, bidder will be required to furnish brand names, numbers, etc., as shown in the Invitation.

3.2. Unless otherwise specified, items shall be new and unused and of current production.

3.3. No substitutions permitted without written approval of the University.

3.4. The University will not be bound by any oral statement or representation contrary to the written specifications of this IFB.

4. DELIVERY:

4.1. Bid should show the number of days required to deliver items to University's designated location under normal conditions. Unrealistically short or long delivery promises may cause bid to be disregarded. Failure to state delivery time obligates bidder to complete delivery in 14 calendar days.

4.2. The Texas Health and Safety Code, Chapter 502.006, Texas Hazard Communication Act requires chemical manufacturers and distributors to provide Material

Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) for hazardous materials sold. Products covered by this Act must be accompanied by an MSDS and such products must be labeled in compliance with the law. For any product not covered under the Act, a statement of exemption must be provided.

4.3. No substitutions permitted without written approval of the University.

5. BIDDER AFFIRMATION:

5.2.

5.6. Bidder, pursuant to Section 2155.006, Texas Government Code, certifies that Bidder is not ineligible to receive the award of or payments under any resulting contract or agreement and acknowledges that such a contract or agreement may be terminated and payment withheld if these certifications are inaccurate.

5.7. Bidder agrees that, pursuant to Sections 2107.008 and 2252.903, Texas Government Code, any payments owing to Bidder under any contract or agreement resulting from this IFB may be applied directly to any debt or delinquency that Bidder owes the State of Texas or any agency of the State of Texas regardless of when it arises, until such debt or delinquency is paid in full.

5.8. BIDDER WILL DEFEND WITH COUNSEL APPROVED BY UNIVERSITY, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS UNIVERSITY, THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SYSTEM, THE STATE OF TEXAS, AND ALL OF THEIR REGENTS, OFFICERS, AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES, FROM AND AGAINST ALL ACTIONS, SUITS, DEMANDS, COSTS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES AND OTHER CLAIMS OF ANY NATURE, KIND OR DESCRIPTION, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES INCURRED IN INVESTIGATING, DEFENDING OR SETTLING ANY OF THE FOREGOING, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, OR RESULTING FROM ANY NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF BIDDER OR ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE, SUBCONTRACTOR, OR SUPPLIER OF BIDDER IN THE EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT RESULTING FROM THIS IFB.

Bidder’s failure to provide such a statement and all of the above information in its bid constitutes Bidder’s agreement to the representation, certification and warranty set forth at the start of this Section 5.9. The University may require Bidder to provide additional information and assistance in order to comply with Section 669.003; Bidder acknowledges that the University may reject Bidder’s bid in the event that Bidder does not provide such additional information and assistance.

Bidder acknowledges that Section 669.003 may prevent Bidder from being awarded any contract or agreement resulting from this IFB.

5.10.

Texas state agencies must ensure that each contract for cloud computing services that the agency enters into or renews on or after January 1, 2022, complies with Section 2054.0593.

As a result, Contractor must comply with the requirements of such a state risk and authorization management program and maintain program compliance and certification throughout the term of this Agreement. Contractor understands and agrees that the University may not enter into or renew a contract with Contractor to purchase cloud computing services for the University that are subject to the state risk and authorization management program unless Contractor demonstrates compliance with program requirements. Contractor acknowledges this Agreement may be terminated and payment withheld if Contractor does not comply with this Section.
