2.1.1 Contact List Submittal Contact: Luana Eutsler 4050 Main Street Executive Office, 1st Floor Riverside, CA 92501 951-955-5556 Email: [email protected] Contracting Officer: Kurt Johnson 4050 Main Street, Executive Office, 1st Floor Riverside, CA 92501 951-955-5238 Email: [email protected]

2.1.2 Disposition of Material and Confidential or Proprietary Information All materials submitted in response to the solicitation document will become the property of the Court and will be returned only at the Court’s option and at the expense of the vendor submitting the proposal. One copy of a submitted proposal will be retained for official files and become a public record. Any material that a vendor considers as


4

confidential but does not meet the disclosure exemption requirements of the California Public Records Act should not be included in the vendor’s proposal as it may be made available to the public.

Even thought the Public Records Act (PRA) does not apply to the Court, the Court’s policy is to look to the PRA for guidance in responding to requests for documents. If a vendor’s proposal contains material noted or marked as confidential and/or proprietary that, in the Court’s sole opinion, meets the disclosure exemption requirements of the PRA, then that information will not be disclosed pursuant to a written request for public documents. If the Court does not consider such material to be exempt from disclosure under the PRA, the material may be made available to the public, regardless of the notation or markings. If a vendor is unsure if its confidential and/or proprietary material meets the disclosure exemption requirements of the PRA, then it should not include such information in its proposal because such information may be disclosed to the public.

2.1.3 Proposal Preparation Costs Vendors submitting proposals do so entirely at their expense. There is no express or implied obligation by the Court to reimburse a vendor for any costs incurred in preparing or submitting proposals, providing additional information when requested by the Court, participating in any selection interviews or product demonstrations, or participating in this procurement.

2.2 Mandatory Pre-Proposal Walkthrough and Conference

2.2.1 Mandatory Pre-proposal Walkthrough and Conference A mandatory pre-proposal walkthrough and conference to answer questions related to this RFP will be held on the date and at the time specified in Section 2.1.

The pre-proposal walkthrough and conference is mandatory. Prospective vendors are required to attend in order to better understand the proposal requirements. In the event a potential vendor is unable to attend the pre-proposal walkthrough and conference, an authorized representative may attend on their behalf. A representative may only sign in for one vendor. Proposals from vendors who did not attend the mandatory walkthrough and conference will not be accepted and will be returned unopened.

The Court will prepare a summary of questions and answers from the pre-proposal walkthrough and conference, as an addendum, which will be provided to attendees or, if identified in Section 2.1, will be posted on the Court website.

2.3 Pre-Submittal Process

2.3.1 Request for Clarifications or Modifications Vendors interested in responding to this solicitation may submit questions on procedural matters related to the RFP or requests for clarification or modification of this solicitation document, including questions regarding the General Conditions in Section V, to the Submittal Contact. If the vendor is requesting a change, the request must set forth the recommended change and the vendor’s reasons for proposing the change. All questions and requests must be submitted in writing to the Submittal Contact listed in Section 2.1.1 no later than the date specified in Section 2.1, Procurement Schedule and General Instructions. Questions or requests submitted after the due date will not be answered.


5

Without disclosing the source of the question or request, the Project Manager will provide a copy of the questions to potential vendors or, if appropriate, post a copy of the questions and the Court’s responses on the Court’s website.

If a vendor’s question relates to a proprietary aspect of its proposal and the question would expose proprietary information if disclosed to competitors, the vendor may submit the question in writing, conspicuously marking it as "CONFIDENTIAL." With the question, the vendor must submit a statement explaining why the question is sensitive. If the Court concurs that the disclosure of the question or answer would expose proprietary information, the question will be answered, and both the question and answer will be kept in confidence. If the Court does not concur regarding the proprietary nature of the question, the question will not be answered and the vendor will be notified.

2.3.2 Ambiguity, Discrepancies, Omissions If a vendor submitting a proposal discovers any ambiguity, conflict, discrepancy, omission, or other error in this solicitation document, the vendor shall immediately provide the Submittal Contact listed in Section 2.1 written notice of the problem and request that the solicitation document be clarified or modified. Without disclosing the source of the request, the Court may modify the solicitation document prior to the date fixed for submission of proposals by providing an addendum to potential vendors or, if identified in Section 2.1, by posting the addendum on the Court website.

If prior to the date fixed for submission of proposals a vendor submitting a proposal knows of or should have known of an error in the solicitation document but fails to notify the Court of the error, the vendor shall propose at its own risk. If the vendor is awarded the contract, the vendor shall not be entitled to additional compensation or time by reason of the error or its later correction.

2.3.2 Contact with Court Vendors are specifically directed NOT to contact any Court personnel or consultants for meetings, conferences, or discussions that are specifically related to this RFP at any time prior to any award of a contract. Unauthorized contact with any Court personnel or consultants may be grounds for rejection of the vendor’s response.

2.3.3 RFP Addenda The Court may modify the solicitation document prior to the date fixed for submission of proposals by providing notice to potential vendors or, if identified in Section 2.1, by posting an addendum on the Court’s website. If any potential vendor determines that an addendum unnecessarily restricts its ability to propose, it must notify the Submittal Contact listed in Section 2.1.1 no later than three (3) business days following the date the addendum provided or posted.

Pricing shall reflect all addenda issued by the Court. Failure to do so will permit the Court to interpret the proposal to include all addenda issued in any resulting contract.

2.4 Submission of Proposals

2.4.1 Proposal Delivery The following must be received no later than the Proposal Due Date and time specified in Section 2.1 at the address listed in Section 2.1.1 for the Submittal Contact:

6

• One electronic copy of the proposal in MS Word format sent via e-mail to the Submittal Contact.

. • The cost proposal will be evaluated separately from the technical proposal.

Place the cost proposal in a separate sealed envelope, must be clearly marked “Cost Proposal”, RFP Number, Project Title, Proposal Due Date, Proposal’s Name and address.

The original and all copies of the proposals must be submitted in a single , sealed envelope. The outside of the envelope must be clearly marked with the RFP Number, Project Title, the Proposal Due Date, and the vendor’s name Proposals received prior to the Proposal Closing Time that are marked properly will be securely kept, unopened until the Proposal Closing Time. Late proposals will not be considered. All proposals must be delivered via U.S. Mail, common carrier, or hand delivery. Facsimiles will not be accepted. The vendor is solely responsible for ensuring that the full proposal is received by the Court in accordance with the solicitation requirements, prior to the date and time specified in the solicitation, and at the place specified. The Court shall not be responsible for any delays in mail or by common carriers or by transmission errors or delays or missed delivery.

2.4.2 Amendment or Withdrawal of Proposals A vendor may amend its proposal prior to the Proposal Closing Time. All amendments must be in writing and received by the Court prior to the Proposal Closing Time.

A vendor may withdraw its proposal at any time prior to the Proposal Due Date and Time by notifying the Submittal Contact listed in Section 2.1.1 in writing (email or US mail) of its withdrawal. Amendments or withdrawals offered in any other manner, than those described above will not be considered. Proposals cannot be amended or withdrawn after the Proposal Due Date and Time.

2.4.3 Mistake in Proposal If prior to a contract award, a vendor discovers a mistake in their proposal that renders the vendor unwilling to perform under any resulting contract, the vendor must immediately notify the Submittal Contact listed in Section 2.1.1 in writing and request to withdraw the proposal. It shall be solely within the Court’s discretion as to whether withdrawal will be permitted. If the solicitation contemplated evaluation and award of “all or none” of the items, then any withdrawal must be for the entire proposal. If the solicitation requires the evaluation and award of the contract on an “all or none” basis, then any withdrawal must be for the entire proposal. If the solicitation provided for an evaluation and award on a line item or combination of items basis, the Court may consider permitting withdrawal of specific line item(s) or combination of items.

2.4.4 Error in Submitted Proposals If an error is discovered in a vendor’s proposal, the Court may at its sole option retain the proposal and allow the vendor to submit certain arithmetic corrections. The Court may, at its sole option, allow the vendor to correct obvious clerical errors. In determining if a correction will be allowed, the Court will consider the conformance of the proposal to the format and content required by the solicitation, the significance and magnitude of the correction, and any unusual complexity of the format and content required by the solicitation.


7

If the vendor’s intent is clearly established based on review of the complete proposal submitted, the Court may, at its sole option, allow the vendor to correct an error based on that established intent.

The total price of unit-price items or individual line items will be the product of the unit or line item price and the quantity. If the unit or line item price is ambiguous, unintelligible or uncertain for any cause or is omitted, the unit or line item price shall be the amount obtained by dividing the “extension” price by the item quantity.

2.4.5 Authorized Signatures, Validity Period of Proposals Proposals must include the vendor name, address, telephone and facsimile numbers, and federal tax identification number. The proposal must be signed by a duly authorized officer or employee of the vendor and include the name, title, address, and telephone number of the individual who is the vendor’s designated representative.

Proposals will be valid for ninety (90) days after the Proposal Due Date specified in Section 2.1. In the event a final contract has not been awarded by the date specified in Section 2.1, the Court reserves the right to negotiate extensions to the Proposal Validity Date. 2.4.6 Knowledge of Requirements The vendor shall carefully review all documents referenced and made a part of the solicitation document to ensure that all information required to properly respond has been submitted or made available and all requirements are priced in the proposal. Failure to examine any document, drawing, specification, or instruction will be at the vendor’s sole risk.

Vendors shall be responsible for knowledge of all items and conditions contained in their proposals and in this RFP, including any Court issued clarifications, modifications, amendments, or addenda. The Court post addenda and clarifications to the Court’s website. However, it is the vendor’s responsibility to ascertain that the proposal includes all addenda issued prior to the Proposal Due Date.

2.4.7 Independence of Proposal and Joint Proposals Unless a vendor is submitting a joint proposal, the vendor represents and warrants that by submitting its proposal it did not conspire with any other vendor to set prices in violation of anti-trust laws.

A proposal submitted by two or more vendors participating jointly in one proposal may be submitted, but one vendor must be identified as the prime vendor and the other as the subcontractor. The Court assumes no responsibility or obligation for the division of orders or purchases among joint subcontractors.

2.4.8 Covenant Against Gratuities Vendor warrants by signing its proposal that no gratuities, in the form of entertainment, gifts, or otherwise, were offered by the vendor or any agent, director, or representative of the proposer, to any officer, official, agent, or employee of any Court with a view toward securing award of or securing favorable treatment with respect to any determinations concerning the performance of any resulting contract. For breach or violation of this warranty, the Court will have the right to terminate any resulting contract in whole or in part. The right and remedies of the Court provided in this provision shall not be exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under the resulting contract.

2.5 Overview of Evaluation Process

2.5.1 Evaluation Committee The Court will conduct a comprehensive, fair, and impartial evaluation of proposals received in response to this RFP. All proposals received from vendors will be reviewed and evaluated by a committee of qualified personnel (“Evaluation Committee”). The name, units, or experience of the individual members will not be made available to any vendor.

2.5.2 Reservation of Rights The Court reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, in whole or in part, and may or may not waive any immaterial deviation or defect in a proposal.

The Court’s waiver of an immaterial deviation or defect shall in no way modify the solicitation document or excuse a vendor from full compliance with solicitation document specifications.

If a proposal fails to meet a material solicitation document requirement, the proposal may be rejected. A deviation is material to the extent that a response is not in substantial accord with the requirements of the solicitation document. Material deviations cannot be waived.

Unless otherwise specified in the solicitation, the Court may accept any item or combination of items as specified in the solicitation of any proposal unless (1) the vendor expressly restricts an item or combination of items in its proposal and (2) conditions its response on receiving all items for which it provided a proposal. In the event that the vendor restricts its proposal, the Court may consider the vendor’s restriction and evaluate whether the award, on such basis, will result in the best value to the Court. The Court may determine, in its sole discretion, that such restriction(s) is non-responsive and renders the vendor ineligible for further evaluation.

The Court reserves the right to negotiate with vendors who have presented, in the opinion of the Evaluation Committee, the best proposal in an attempt to reach a contract. If no contract is reached, the Court may negotiate with other vendors or make no award under this RFP. The Evaluation Committee can reject all proposals and make no award under this RFP at any time. Moreover, the Court reserves the right to reconsider any proposal submitted at any phase of the procurement. It also reserves the right to meet with vendors to gather additional information.

Proposals that contain false or misleading statements may be rejected if in the Court’s opinion the information was intended to mislead the Court regarding a requirement of the solicitation document.

2.5.3 Evaluation of Budget All figures entered on the budget (Attachment E) must be clearly legible and must be printed in ink or type written. No erasures are permitted. Errors may be crossed out and corrections printed in ink or typewritten adjacent to the corrected text and must be initialed in ink by the person signing the proposal. If the solicitation requires the vendor to provide an electronic copy of the cost sheet(s) and there is a discrepancy in the printed cost sheet(s) and electronic copy, the pricing on the printed cost sheet(s) will be evaluated.

Where more than one line item is specified in the solicitation, the Court reserves the right to determine the highest evaluated proposer, either on the basis of individual items,


9

combination of items as specified in the solicitation, or on the basis of all items included in the solicitation, unless otherwise expressly provided.

2.5.4 Cash Discounts The Court encourages vendors to offer cash discounts for prompt payment. However, unless provided elsewhere in the solicitation, cash discounts offered by vendors for the prompt payment of invoices will not be considered in evaluating offers to determine the successful vendor for award of any resulting contract. 2.5.5 Requests for Additional Information The Court reserves the right to seek clarification or additional information from any vendor throughout the solicitation process. The Court may require a vendor’s representative to answer questions during the evaluation process with regard to the vendor’s proposal. Failure of a vendor to demonstrate that the claims made in its proposal are in fact true may be sufficient cause for deeming a proposal non-responsive.

2.6 Minimum Qualifications

To be considered for full evaluation and possible award, vendors must first meet the threshold minimum qualification requirements listed in the following table (minimum requirements can be met by combining experience, expertise, and resources of vendor and any proposed subcontractors):

No. Minimum Qualifications 1 5 or more years experience working with like-size customers with public access

buildings. 2 Vendor is not currently under suspension or debarment by any state or federal

government agency and neither vendor nor any of its proposed associates are tax delinquent with the State of California or Federal Government (reference Attachment C, Vendor Certification Form).

3 Vendor must have all required licenses and permits as required to perform janitorial services. Please show proof.

4 General liability and worker’s compensation insurances as set forth in General Conditions, Sections V of this RFP, #8.0.

The vendor must state specifically in its Executive Summary (see Section 4.1) how it will comply with each minimum qualification specified above. Subject to the Court’s right in its complete discretion to waive minor deviations or defects, only those proposals that meet all of the foregoing minimum qualifications shall be considered for a full evaluation and a possible contract award.

2.7 Evaluation Criteria

Proposals will be evaluated to determine the proposal or proposals that offer the best value to the Court. The evaluation will be based upon the criteria listed below in no particular order. Although some factors are weighted more than others, all are considered necessary and a proposal must be technically acceptable in each area to be eligible for award. With regards to cost, the Court reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject any proposal whose price is outside of the competitive range. a. Experience on similar assignment b. References c. Cost/Pricing factors d. Experience of key personnel

e. Work Plan f. Overall response to RFP

2.8 Interviews and Negotiations

2.8.1 Interviews Following the initial screening of proposals, the Court reserves the right to require, and each vendor must be prepared to conduct, oral presentations and other discussions (written or verbal) on the content of its proposal. If the Court determines that interviews or presentations are required, selected vendors will be notified in writing of the date, place, time and format of the interview or presentation. Vendors will be responsible for all costs related to the interview, which, at the Court’s sole discretion, may be in-person and/or by teleconference. Failure to participate in such interviews or presentations shall result in a vendor’s disqualification from further consideration.

2.8.2 Negotiations If the Court desires to enter into negotiations, they will do so with one or more vendors, at their discretion. If the Court enters into negotiations and no contract is reached, the Court can negotiate with the other vendors or make no award under this RFP. The Court reserves the right to award a contract, if any, without negotiations.

2.8.3 Payment Payment terms will be specified in any contract that may ensue as a result of this solicitation document. THE COURT DOES NOT MAKE ANY ADVANCE PAYMENT FOR GOODS OR SERVICES.

2.8.4 News Releases News releases pertaining to the award of any contract resulting from this solicitation may not be made by a vendor without the prior written approval of the Contracting Officer noted in Section 2.1.1.

2.9 Award of Contract

The Evaluation Committee will make a final recommendation for award of the contract. Upon award, the successful proposer(s) will be required to execute a Contract in accordance with the Statement of Work in Section IV and the General Conditions in Section V, and provide a certificate of insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth in the General Conditions within thirty (30) business days of award. Contracts are not effective until signed by both parties.

18.1 PREFACE: Court is committed to maintain and promote job safety and health for all workers at its facilities. In addition, Court is determined to protect its employees, customers, and the general public while they are on Court property from any harm caused by illegal drug and alcohol use by non-Court personnel. To accomplish these objectives, Court has established the following drug and alcohol abuse policy for access to Court facilities by its Vendor and Subcontractor personnel.

18.2 COVERAGE: This policy applies to the personnel of all Court Vendors and Subcontractors

providing maintenance, construction, and related services at Court facilities. Court employees are covered by Court's Drug Prevention Policy and the Court Standard Practice on employee conduct.

18.3 POLICY:

18.3.1 Court may deny access to, or remove from, its facilities the personnel of any Vendor or

Subcontractor, who Court has reasonable grounds to believe has:

18.3.1.1 Engaged in alcohol abuse or illegal drug activity which in any way impairs Court's ability to maintain safe Work facilities, to protect the health and well-being of Court employees, customers, and the general public, and to promote the public's confidence in Court's service and operations; or

18.3.1.2 Been found guilty, pled guilty, or pled nolo contendere to a charge of sale

18.3.3.3 Take any other appropriate action to determine if there has been a violation

of paragraph 18.3.2.

18.3.4 Refusal to comply with a request made under this section shall be grounds for denying access to, or immediate removal from, any Court facility.

18.3.5 Any individual who has been denied access to, or removed from, Court facilities or

violating this policy may obtain permission to enter or reenter provided the individual establishes, to the satisfaction of their employer and Court, that the previous activity which formed the basis for denying access or removal has been corrected and his or her future conduct will conform with this policy. Court retains the right of final approval for the entry or reentry of any individual previously denied access to or removed from Court facilities.

19.0 INJURY AND ILLNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM: In the performance of the Work under this

Contract, Vendor acknowledges that it has an effective Injury and Illness Prevention Program which meets the requirements of all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to Section 6401.7 of the California Labor Code.
