The document is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the County of DuPage. It provides instructions and guidelines for bidders who wish to participate in the bidding process. The document states that bidders must attach manufacturer's specifications and literature to their bids. Bidders may also be requested to provide samples of alternate items they intend to supply for testing. The Procurement Manager of DuPage County has the authority to determine whether alternate items are equal to the specified item, and their decision is final. Bidders are encouraged to submit cost-saving/value-added alternate bid pricing suggestions, such as rebates, lease agreements, extended warranty periods, trade-in allowances, or discounts for floor model or demonstrator units. Any alternate pricing should be noted separately to allow for clear evaluation and value-analysis by the County. The document emphasizes that the County welcomes creativity in bidding and will consider alternates if they clearly indicate what will be furnished and how it will benefit the County. Alternates will be compared to the lowest responsive, responsible bid. The document also includes information about competition, deviations from specifications, examination of bids by bidders, electronic transmittals, interpretation of contract documents, and preparation of bids. It provides instructions on how to fill out the bid forms, including the need to acknowledge receipt of addenda and to submit prices for all items unless otherwise directed. The document also mentions that discrepancies or alterations in bids may result in rejection. Additionally, the document states that if the bidder is a sole proprietor, the owner shall execute the bid. This implies that the bid must be signed by the owner of the sole proprietorship.
