This document is a set of instructions and general conditions for bidders participating in a procurement process conducted by DuPage County in Illinois. The document outlines the rules and regulations that bidders must adhere to during the bidding process and subsequent contract execution. The document states that all records in the possession of DuPage County are presumed to be open to inspection or copying, unless a specific exception applies. One such exception is trade secrets and commercial or financial information that is claimed to be proprietary, privileged, or confidential, and disclosure of which would cause competitive harm. Bidders are instructed to clearly mark any information provided in their bid or proposal that falls under this exception. The document also provides information on contract award notification, which can be sent via mail or fax, and the availability of response summaries and bid status information on the website www.DemandStar.com. Bidders can also contact the Bid Coordinator for bid status information. The document mentions the possibility of revisions to the invitation to bid (ITB) and the provision of addenda to clarify or provide additional data. Bidders are advised to check for any addenda at least 48 hours before the bid deadline. It is stated that all materials used by the contractor must conform to applicable building codes and ordinances. The County reserves the right to make changes to the specifications after the contract is awarded, but any changes must be agreed upon in advance between the County and the contractor. The document emphasizes that the contractor must not commence any billable work until the County has executed the contract or until any required documents have been submitted. Communication regarding the solicitation or evaluation process must be directed solely to the designated contact person, and contact with other County employees or officers is not permitted without authorization. Confidential information provided by the County must be treated as such by the contractor and returned upon request. The contractor's performance under the contract must be satisfactory to the County, and failure to comply with statutory requirements will be considered a breach of performance. Additionally, the document states that the County reserves the right to cancel the bid for a period of ninety (90) calendar days after the closing time for the receipt of bids. This means that the County may choose to not award the contract within this period, and bidders should be aware of this possibility. The document also includes provisions regarding discipline, drug-free workplace, endorsements, F.O.B. shipping, force majeure, and the holding of bids.
