INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPOSERS
FOR PITKIN COUNTY CONTRACTS
For the Project Entitled:_TYPE I FOUR WHEEL DRIVE MODULAR AMBULANCE BODY
Date of Proposal Opening: August 31st 2006
1.
A "proposal" is a responsive, conforming, unconditional, complete (in ink or
typewriter), legible and properly executed offer on the form supplied to do the work
called for in the Request For Proposals (and plans and specifications) for the
compensation specified. For the purposes of this document and the procedures
specified herein, a "proposal" shall be subject to the same procedural requirements and
where only one such term is used, the other is to be implied, as applicable, unless
otherwise noted.
a.
b. Proposals must be submitted in sealed opaque envelopes and submitted at the time and
place designated in the Request for Proposals (RFP). Proposal envelopes must be
clearly marked on the front of the envelope as a "sealed proposal" with the project name
and the name, contact person, mailing address and telephone number of the proposer.
c. It shall be the responsibility of the proposer to insure that the proposal document is in
proper form and in the County's possession by or before the scheduled time and date of
public proposal opening. Proposals will not be accepted after the scheduled time and
date of opening. Any proposals received late will be returned to the proposer unopened,
if possible. In the event that it is impossible to determine who the late proposer is
unless the envelope is opened, the envelope will be opened, the address determined, and
the envelope and proposer returned immediately without being considered a proposal.
d. If specified in the Request for Proposal, parties who request packages of proposal
documents will be required to pay a fee or place a deposit for the document package.
All parties who actually receive packages must sign a list and leave the name of the
potential proposer, along with the name of a contact person, address and telephone
number for the purpose of dissemination of Addenda or additional proposal
information.
e. If a mistake is made or discovered at or after the public opening, the County reserves the
right to determine which party made the mistake and whether the mistake is material
and, after these determinations, the County, in its sole discretion, shall make the
decision whether to accept or reject the proposal. No advantage shall be taken by either
party of manifest clerical errors or omissions in the proposal documents or the Request
for Proposals (and plans and specifications). All proposers are required to notify the
County immediately of any errors of omissions that may be encountered. (See 2.a. and
2.c., below).
11
\
f. The signer of the Proposal must initial any interlineation, alteration or erasure. If
provided on the required Proposal Form, the proposal price of each item must be stated
in numerals and words; in case of a conflict, the words will control. In case of conflict
between the indicated sum of any addition of figures and the correct sum, the correct
sum will control.
g. No reimbursement will be made by the County for any costs incurred in the preparation
of a statement of qualifications, or proposals, or attendance at a site inspection, pre-bid
conference or interviews.
h. No person, firm or corporation shall be allowed to make, file or be interested in more
than one proposal for the same work, unless alternate proposals are called for. A
person, firm, or corporation who has submitted a subproposal to proposer, or who has
quoted prices on materials to a Proposer, is not hereby disqualified from submitting a
subproposal or quoting prices to other Proposers.
2.
If any person contemplating submitting a Proposal is in doubt as to the true meaning of
any part of the Drawings, Specifications or other Proposal or Contract Documents, or
finds discrepancies, errors, ambiguities, inconsistencies, incompleteness or omissions in
the Drawings or Specifications or the proposal process, he/she must submit to the
Procurement Officer a written request for an amplification, clarification, explanation,
interpretation or correction thereof.
a.
b. Proposers may propose substitute materials or techniques if such substitution is equal to
or better than the materials or techniques called out in the plans and specifications and if
the substitution has been submitted in writing at least ten (10) days prior to the public
proposal opening. The burden of proof of equality or superior quality is on the
proposer. If accepted as equal by the County in its discretion, the substitute will be
designated as an alternative on a formal addendum.
c. Any amplification, clarification, explanation, interpretation or correction of the
documents will be made only by written Addendum duly issued and a copy of the
Addendum will be mailed or delivered to each person receiving a set of the Proposal
Documents. Neither the Owner nor the Procurement Officer will be responsible for any
information, representations, explanations or interpretations of the Contract Documents
not in written addenda.
d. The County reserves the right to call a pre-bid/proposal conference; if called and
conducted, a summary of the pre-bid/proposal conference will be mailed to all parties
receiving a set of Proposal documents.
e. On request, the County will provide each Proposer access to the site to conduct, at
Proposer's sole cost, such inspections, tests and investigations as each Proposer deems
necessary for submission of a Proposal. No information provided by County representa-
tives at such a site inspection shall be deemed a waiver of the requirements of 2.a. and
2.c., above.
12
5
f. Any addenda issued during the time of the proposal process, or forming a part of the
Contract Documents, shall be covered in the Proposal, and shall be made a part of the
Contract. Receipt of each Addendum shall be acknowledged in the Proposal.
g. If specified in the Project RFP, a request for qualifications may precede the RFP
process.
3.
Each proposal, if required by the proposal documents, shall be accompanied by a
certified check or bid bond in a form acceptable to the County, in an amount specified,
payable without condition to the County as a guarantee that the proposer, if awarded the
Contract, will promptly execute the Agreement in accordance with the Proposal and the
other Contract Documents, and will furnish, if required by the proposal or contract
documents, good and sufficient bonds for the faithful performance of the contract and
for the payment to all persons supplying labor and material for the work (see 10.a.,
below). The Proposal guaranties of all parties except the three lowest responsive -
proposals will be returned promptly after the opening of Proposals. After execution of
the Contract and issuance of a Notice To Proceed, the remaining two guaranties will be
returned.
a.
b. Proposer also, if required by the Proposal Documents, will fully complete and submit
with the proposal a Pitkin County Proposer's Qualification Statement, or an updated
Statement if one is already on file. Pitkin County reserves the right to pre-qualify
proposers based on said qualification statements.
c. Proposer also must submit with the proposal a list of subcontractors, independent
contractors and suppliers to be employed under the Contract. If the County has a
reasonable objection to any such contractor or supplier, it shall notify the proposer and
the proposer may then: (a) withdraw his proposal; or (b) substitute an acceptable
contractor or supplier. If required by the Proposal or Contract Documents,
subcontractors may be required to submit a Contractor's Qualification Statement.
d. Proposals by corporations must be executed in the corporate name by the president or a
vice-president (or other corporate officer accompanied by evidence of authority to sign)
and the corporate seal must be affixed and attested by the secretary or an assistant
secretary. The corporate address and state of incorporation shall be shown below the
signature.
e. Proposals by partnerships or limited liability companies ("LLC") must be executed in
the partnership or LLC name and signed by a partner authorized LLC officer, whose
title must appear under the signature and the official address of the partnership or LLC
must be shown below the signature. The State in which the entity was formed and
whose law governs the entity shall be shown below the signature.
f. All names must be typed or printed below the signature.
4.
Proposer acknowledges that this proposal is solicited and submitted subject to the
requirements of the "Pitkin County Procurement Code," (Section 8.5 of the Pitkin
13
a.
~
County Home Rule Charter; Resolution No. 82-37, April 12, 1982, copies available
upon request for a nominal charge). As such, the Proposer agrees to comply with all
applicable requirements of said Procurement Code relating to bidding, contract drafting,
contract administration and ethics. The requirements of the Procurement Code are
incorporated herein by this reference.
b. The proposer shall immediately notify the County Manager in writing of any violation
of said Code by the County's employees or agents, which violation is known or should
have been known by proposer, and failure to so notify the County of violations within
five (5) days of knowledge of such violations shall disqualify the proposer from award
of the Contract being proposed and shall be deemed as a waiver of any action or defense
that the proposer may have against the County by reason of such violation of the
Procurement Code.
c. The submission of a proposal shall be conclusive evidence and legal admission that the
proposer: (I) has no questions, complaints or objections in connection with the Proposal
process and/or documents, subject to any requests made by Proposer for amplification,
clarification, explanation, interpretation or correction pursuant to Paragraph 2.a. and
2.c., above; (2) has no questions, complaints or objections as to the completeness, suffi-
ciency, scope or detail of the Proposal Documents; and (3) has full knowledge of the
scope, nature, quality and quantity of work to be performed, the detailed requirements
of the proposal documents including any and all contract documents and required
clauses and the plans and specifications, the site and conditions under which the work is
to be performed, the Pitkin County Procurement Code, and applicable Colorado law.
5.
All proposals will be opened and read in public. No proposals may be withdrawn after
the beginning of the public opening. The County, in its sole discretion, may delay a
proposal opening for no longer than two (2) business days if weather or other
circumstances beyond control of proposers results in delay in receipt of proposals.

date of the proposal opening. During this time, proposals and proposers are
investigated, evaluated, recommended and submitted to the Board of County
Commissioners for final approval at a regular meeting.
6.
Proposals will be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive proposer complying
with the terms, conditions, guidelines, selection criteria, plans and specifications
presented in the Request For Proposals, and these Instructions. All rights are reserved
by the County to determine, in the County's sole reasonable discretion, whether the
Proposal meets the needs or a purpose intended and is within the project budget.
a.
b. Although price may be a major consideration in the award of contract, the County does
not award on prices alone. The County also considers the quality of product as judged
by the County; past experience with same proposers, subcontractors, products or suppli-
14
~
ers; qualifications of the proposers and/or subcontractors or suppliers; services offered;
warranties; maintenance considerations; long-range costs; delivery; and similar
considerations, all as specified in detail in the Project RFP.
c. The County reserves the absolute right to conduct such investigations as it deems
necessary to assist in the evaluation of any proposal and to establish the experience,
responsibility, reliability, references, reputation, business ethics, history, qualifications
and financial ability of the Proposers and proposed subcontractors and suppliers. The
purpose of such investigation is to satisfY the County that the Proposer has the
experience, resources and commercial reputation necessary to perform the work and
support any warranties in accordance with the Contract Documents in the prescribed
manner and time.
d. The County, at its sole discretion, may require the apparent successful Proposer to
demonstrate, at a place and time designated by the County, that the proposal meets the
performance criteria specified, or to otherwise provide documented proof from
independent reliable sources acceptable to the County that said performance criteria will
be met prior to final acceptance of the proposal. The burden of proof of such a
demonstration is on the Proposer. In the event that the apparent successful proposer
fails to demonstrate or provide acceptable proof of meeting required performance
criteria, that proposal will be rejected and the next eligible proposer in the selection
ranking will be invited to participate in the same process until a proposal meeting
performance criteria is found within the ranking of eligible proposers. The County
reserves the rights to rej ect any or all proposers or to otherwise accept the proposal
which in the County's sole discretion is in the best interest of the County.
e. Pitkin County reserves the right, if it deems such action to be in the best interests of the
County, to reject any and all proposals or to waive any irregularities or informalities
therein. Any incomplete, conclusionary, false or misleading information provided by
proposer shall be grounds for rejection of the proposal. If proposals are rejected, the
County further reserves the right to investigate and accept the next best proposal in
order ofranking or to reject all proposals and re-solicit for additional proposals.
f. Any questions or disputes involving the documents or procedures not covered by these
Instructions or other proposal documents, shall be resolved by the above-named
Procurement Officer on the basis of fairness, custom in the industry, maximization of
competition and best interests and convenience of the County.
7. Issuance of Notice of Award, execution of Contract Documents and issuance of a Notice To
Proceed shall be as specified in the Contract Documents and subject to approval by the Board
of County Commissioners.
8. Contracts will be executed on standard Pitkin County Contract documents including the
County's "Required Clauses" and/or by separate agreement with the proposer. Copies of any
applicable standard forms are included with the proposal documents. The County reserves the
right to negotiate with the proposer for contract terms not specified in the Proposal
Documents.

9. If the contract awarded as a result of a proposal extends beyond the calendar year, nothing
herein shall be construed as an obligation by the County beyond any amounts that may be,

appropriation of funds by said governing body and that before providing services, the
Proposer, if he/she so requests, will be advised as to the status of funds appropriated for ser-
