The document is a set of terms and conditions for vendors participating in a bid process with the Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) Procurement Department, located at 901 E. Kennedy Boulevard, Tampa, Florida. The document outlines various rules and regulations that vendors must adhere to in order to be considered for a contract with HCPS.
Some key points from the document include:
- Vendors can request to withdraw their bid if they discover an error or omission, but they must provide evidence that it was unintentional.
- Any additional terms and conditions included with the bid response will not be evaluated or considered.
- If a bidder fails to enter into a contract with HCPS based on their bid, they may be liable for the difference between their bid price and the price HCPS pays to secure the merchandise from another source.
- Offering or tendering gratuities or "kickbacks" to HCPS employees or subcontractors will result in disqualification.
- Prices stated in the bid must be in the specified units, and in case of a discrepancy between the unit price and the extension, the unit price will be considered correct.
- HCPS reserves the right to reject any and all bids, and to terminate all or part of any contract if it is in the best interest of HCPS.
- If a bidder defaults after being awarded a bid, they may be required to pay liquidated damages equal to 5% of the unit price times the ordered quantity.
- If sufficient budgeted funds are not available, the contract may be terminated without penalty to HCPS.
- Samples of items may be required, and if so, they must be furnished free of expense and returned at the bidder's expense if not destroyed. Failure to deliver samples or clearly identify them may result in rejection of the bid.
