Art Supplies for Instructional Warehouse DT2608

Weber School District is inviting quotations to provide art supplies to our instructional warehouse. Enclosed is a quote form listing the items to be purchased contingent upon budget. Items listed as quantity "1" are fully stocked currently, and purchase is not likely, but we invite you to bid regardless. It is the vendor's responsibility to read and comply with all instructions attached to this bid. Bids that do not follow instructions will be considered non-responsive and will be rejected. All questions must be asked in BidNetDirect and will be answered there for all vendors to view. Any contract resulting from this RFP will include, but not be limited to the Standard Terms and Conditions. 1. Exceptions and/or additions to the Standard Terms and Conditions are strongly discouraged. However, any requested exceptions and/or additions to the Standard Terms and Conditions must be submitted with the proposal. Exceptions and/or additions submitted after the date and time for receipt of proposals will not be considered. Offerors may not submit requests for exceptions and/or additions by reference to a vendor's website or URL. URLs provided with a proposal may result in that proposal being rejected as non-responsive. Offerors may submit questions during the Question and Answer period regarding the Standard Terms and Conditions. 2. The District may refuse to negotiate exceptions and/or additions that are determined to be excessive; that are inconsistent with similar contracts of the procurement unit; to warranties, insurance, or indemnification provisions that are necessary to protect the procurement unit after consultation with the District's General Counsel Office or other applicable legal counsel; where the solicitation specifically prohibits exceptions and/or additions; or that are not in the best interest of the procurement unit. 3. In a multiple award, the District reserves the right to negotiate exceptions and/or additions to terms and conditions in a manner resulting in expeditious resolutions. This process may include beginning negotiations with the Offeror having the least amount of exceptions and/or additions and concluding with the Offeror submitting the greatest number of exceptions and/or additions. Contracts may be executed and become effective as negotiations are completed. 4. For any proposed change(s), Offeror must provide the District's Standard Terms and Conditions for this solicitation in Microsoft Word format with redline edits. Additional terms or documents must be submitted in separate Microsoft Word documents. Offeror must also provide the name, contact information, and access to the person(s) that will be directly involved in legal negotiations. 5. Any mandatory required acceptance of an Offeror's terms and conditions may result in the proposal being determined to be non-responsive. 6. An award resulting from this RFP is subject to successful contract terms and conditions negotiation (if required). The District may reject a proposal if the offeror who submitted the proposal fails to sign a contract within 90 days after the contract award. 7. See attached Terms and Conditions.
