11. Rejection and Waiver
The County reserves the right to reject any and all bids, to waive defects in the form of bid, also to
select the bid that best meets the requirements of the County.
Vendors whose bids, past performance or current status do not reflect the capability, integrity or
reliability to fully and in good faith perform the requirements denoted may be rejected as non-
responsive. Bids that do not meet all necessary requirements of this solicitation or fail to provide
all required information, documents or materials may be rejected as non-responsive.
12. Local Vendor Preference (LVP)
The County is using the Competitive Sealed Quotation methodology of source selection for this
procurement, as authorized by Ordinance Number 2013-69 establishing and adopting the Collier
County Purchasing Ordinance.
Local business means the vendor has a current Business Tax Receipt issued by the Collier
County Tax Collector for at least one year prior to bid or proposal submission to do business
within Collier County, and that identifies the business with a permanent physical business address
located within the limits of Collier County from which the vendor's staff operates and performs
business in an area zoned for the conduct of such business. A Post Office Box or a facility that
receives mail, or a non-permanent structure such as a construction trailer, storage shed, or other
non-permanent structure shall not be used for the purpose of establishing said physical address.
In addition to the foregoing, a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it
contributes to the economic development and well-being of Collier County in a verifiable and
measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of
employment opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of
employees and principals of the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their
compliance with the foregoing at the time of submitting their bid or proposal to be eligible for
consideration as a "local business" under this section. A vendor who misrepresents the Local
Preference status of its firm in a proposal or bid submitted to the County will lose the privilege to
claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one year.

ITB 16-6545
ITB Template_10152015 Packet Page -2409-
4/26/2016 16.E.8.
Under this solicitation, bidders desiring to receive local preference will be invited and required to
affirmatively state and provide documentation as set forth in the solicitation in support of their
status as a local business. Any bidder who fails to submit sufficient documentation with their bid
offer shall not be granted local preference consideration for the purposes of that specific
contract award. Except where federal or state law, or any other funding source, mandates to the
contrary, Collier County and its agencies and instrumentalities, will give preference to local
businesses in the following manner.
Competitive bid (local price match option). Each formal competitive bid solicitation shall
clearly identify how the price order of the bids received will be evaluated and determined.
When a qualified and responsive, non-local business submits the lowest price bid, and the bid
submitted by one or more qualified and responsive local businesses is within ten percent of the
price submitted by the non-local business, then the local business with the apparent lowest bid
offer (i.e., the lowest local bidder) shall have the opportunity to submit an offer to match the
price(s), less one (1) dollar, offered by the overall lowest, qualified and responsive bidder. In
such instances, staff shall first verify if the lowest non-local bidder and the lowest local bidder
are in fact qualified and responsive bidders. Next, the Purchasing Department shall determine if
the lowest local bidder meets the requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec.287.087 (Preferences to
businesses with drug-free workplace programs). If the lowest local bidder meets the
requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec. 287.087, the Purchasing Department shall invite the lowest
local bidder to submit a matching offer, less one (1) dollar, within five (5) business days
thereafter. If the lowest local bidder submits an offer that fully matches the lowest bid, less
one (1) dollar, from the lowest non-local bidder tendered previously, then award shall be made
to the local bidder. If the lowest local bidder declines or is unable to match the lowest non-local
bid price(s), then award will be made to the lowest overall qualified and responsive bidder. If the
lowest local bidder does not meet the requirement of Fla. Stat. Sec 287.087, and the lowest
non-local bidder does, award will be made to the bidder that meets the requirements of the
reference state law.
Bidder must complete and submit with their bid response the Affidavit for Claiming Status as a
Local Business which is included as part of this solicitation.
Failure on the part of a Bidder to submit this Affidavit with their bid response will preclude
said Bidder from being considered for local preference on this solicitation.
A Bidder who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a bid submitted to the
County will lose the privilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one (1) year.
The County may, as it deems necessary, conduct discussions with responsible bidders
determined to be in contention for being selected for award for the purpose of clarification to
assure full understanding of, and responsiveness to solicitation requirements.
13. Immigration Affidavit Certification

costs required for a project; the risks are transferred from the County to the contractor even if

hours. Invoices for materials (greater than $500) and/or equipment (greater than $500) used in
the completion of the project must be presented to the County prior to final payment. Invoices for

price per ton, delivery price per package or carton, etc.). The invoice must identify the unit price
and the number of units procured (no contractor inventory or cost verification required).

and measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment
opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of
the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their compliance with the foregoing at the

limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees, whether resulting from any
claimed breach of this Agreement by Contractor, any statutory or regulatory violations,
or from personal injury, property damage, direct or consequential damages, or
economic loss, to the extent caused by the negligence, recklessness, or intentionally

provided to Contractor. Contractor's obligation to indemnify and defend under this
Article 12 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until it is
