The SWVRJA reserves the right to award this contract to one or more offerors based on the most responsive and beneficial bid, and is not required to purchase all listed items or provide a reason for rejecting any quote.

The procurement is brand-specific, and the SWVRJA reserves the right to determine if alternate products are equal to the specified brand. The contract opportunity is open to jurisdictions within the Commonwealth of Virginia, including Dickenson County. While the solicitation does not include specific pricing terms, set-asides, or funding information, it notes that sales to the SWVRJA are normally exempt from state sales tax, and the contract may be subject to the availability of funds.
