This document provides general instructions and terms and conditions for bidders participating in the procurement process of Cobb County, Illinois. Bidders are required to carefully examine the drawings, specifications, and instructions provided, as failure to do so will be at their own risk. Bidders must furnish all the necessary information and sign the bid form, with any changes or erasures being initialed. The document states that not all vendors will be sent an Invitation to Bid each time, and the invitations are advertised on various platforms. The document also specifies the requirements for the delivery of goods or services, stating that the proposed delivery time should be mentioned in specific terms rather than using vague phrases. Bidders are allowed to seek clarification regarding the bidding process, but such requests must be made at least seven working days prior to the bid opening. The document emphasizes that the written bid documents supersede any verbal or written communication between parties. Bids should be submitted in sealed envelopes, addressed to the Cobb County Purchasing Department, and must be received by the specified date and time. Telegraphic or faxed bids will not be considered. Samples of items, if required, must be submitted within the specified time and at no expense to the County. Bidders must provide full identification of each item bid upon, including brand name, model, and catalog number. The document also provides information regarding tax exemptions, disclosure of bidding information, and the process for withdrawing bids due to errors. It states that bids may be withdrawn if there is a substantial error, but the bidder must provide objective evidence of the mistake. The document also mentions testing and inspection procedures, F.O.B. point, patent indemnity, and the protection of proprietary information such as uncopyrighted compositions, secret processes, patented or unpatented inventions, articles, or appliances furnished.
