10. Protests
Any prospective vendor/ proposer who desires to protest any aspect(s) or provision(s) of the

with the Procurement Director prior to the time of the bid opening strictly in accordance with the
County's then current purchasing ordinance and policies.
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.
#16-6635 8
ITB Template_01202016
Packet Page -1522-
7/12/2016 16.F.1 .
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
Statutes and executive orders require employers to abide by the immigration laws of the United
States and to employ only individuals who are eligible to work in the United States.
The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify) operated by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA), provides
an Internet-based means of verifying employment eligibility of workers in the United States; it is
not a substitute for any other employment eligibility verification requirements. The program will be
used for Collier County formal Invitations to Bid (ITB) and Request for Proposals (RFP) including
professional services and construction services.

Exceptions to the program:
• Commodity based procurement where no services are provided.
• Where the requirement for the affidavit is waived by the Board of County
Commissioners
Vendors/ Bidders are required to enroll in the E-Verify program, and provide acceptable evidence
of their enrollment, at the time of the submission of the vendor's/bidder's proposal. Acceptable
evidence consists of a copy of the properly completed E-Verify Company Profile page or a copy of
the fully executed E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding for the company. Vendors are also
required to provide the Collier County Purchasing Department an executed affidavit certifying they
shall comply with the E-Verify Program. The affidavit is attached to the solicitation documents. If
the Bidder/Vendor does not comply with providing both the acceptable E-Verify evidence
and the executed affidavit the bidder's/vendor's proposal may be deemed non-responsive.
Additionally, vendors shall require all subcontracted vendors to use the E-Verify system for all
purchases not covered under the "Exceptions to the program" clause above.
For additional information regarding the Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify)
program visit the following website: http://www.dhs.gov/E-Verify. It shall be the vendor's
responsibility to familiarize themselves with all rules and regulations governing this program.
Vendor acknowledges, and without exception or stipulation, any firm(s) receiving an award shall

entity bidding, as well as the team assigned to the County account, is properly licensed to

13. Invoice and Payments
The County's project manager reserves the right to establish any one, or a combination of, these
industry practices for contracts or purchase orders:
Lump Sum (Fixed Price): a firm fixed total price offering for a project; the risks are transferred
from the County to the contractor; and, as a business practice there are no hourly or material
invoices presented, rather, the contractor must perform to the satisfaction of the County's
project manager before payment for the fixed price contract is authorized.
Time and Materials: the County agrees to pay the contractor for the amount of labor time
spent by the contractor's employees and subcontractors to perform the work (number of hours
times hourly rate), and for materials and equipment used in the project (cost of materials plus
the contractor's mark up). This methodology is generally used in projects in which it is not
possible to accurately estimate the size of the project, or when it is expected that the project
requirements would most likely change. As a general business practice, these contracts
include back-up documentation of costs; invoices would include number of hours worked and
billing rate by position (and not company (or subcontractor) timekeeping or payroll records),
material or equipment invoices, and other reimbursable documentation for the project.
Unit Price: the County agrees to pay a firm total fixed price (inclusive of all costs, including
labor, materials, equipment, overhead, etc.) for a repetitive product or service delivered (i.e.
installation price per ton, delivery price per package or carton, etc.). The invoice must identify
the unit price and the number of units received (no contractor inventory or cost verification
required).
Payments are made in accordance with the Local Government Prompt Payment Act, Chapter 218,
Florida Statutes. Vendor's invoices must include:
• Purchase Order Number
• Description and quantities of the goods or services provided per instructions on the County's
purchase order or contract.
Invoices shall be sent to:
Board of County Commissioners
Clerk's Finance Department
ATTN: Accounts Payable

services as part of this agreement.
Payment methods include:
• Traditional—payment by check, wire transfer or other cash equivalent.
• Standard —payment by purchasing card. Collier County's Purchasing Card Program is
supported by standard bank credit suppliers (i.e. VISA and MasterCard), and as such, is cognizant
of the Rules for VISA Merchants and MasterCard Merchant Rules.
The County may not accept any additional surcharges (credit card transaction fees) as a result of
using the County's credit card for transactions relating to this solicitation. The County will
entertain bids clearly stating pricing for standard payment methods. An additional separate
discounted price for traditional payments may be provided at the initial bid submittal if it is clearly
marked as an "Additional Cash Discount."
Upon execution of the Contract and completion of each month's work, payment requests may be
submitted to the Project Manager on a monthly basis by the Contractor for services rendered for
that prior month. Services beyond sixty (60) days from current monthly invoice will not be
considered for payment without prior approval from the Project manager. All invoices should be
submitted within the fiscal year the work was performed. (County's fiscal year is October 1 -
September 30.) Invoices submitted after the close of the fiscal year will not be accepted (or
processed for payment) unless specifically authorized by the Project Manager.
Payments will be made for articles and/or services furnished, delivered, and accepted, upon
receipt and approval of invoices submitted on the date of services or within six (6) months after
completion of contract. Any untimely submission of invoices beyond the specified deadline period
is subject to non-payment under the legal doctrine of"laches" as untimely submitted. Time shall be
deemed of the essence with respect to the timely submission of invoices under this agreement.
In instances where the successful contractor may owe debts (including, but not limited to taxes or
other fees) to Collier County and the contractor has not satisfied nor made arrangement to satisfy
these debts, the County reserves the right to off-set the amount owed to the County by applying
the amount owed to the vendor or contractor for services performed of for materials delivered in
association with a contract.
Invoices shall not reflect sales tax. After review and approval, the invoice will be transmitted to the
Finance Division for payment. Payment will be made upon receipt of proper invoice and in
compliance with Chapter 218 Florida Statutes, otherwise known as the "Local Government Prompt
Payment Act." Collier County reserves the right to withhold and/or reduce an appropriate amount
of any payment for work not performed or for unsatisfactory performance of Contractual
requirements.
14. Survivability

to offset these costs from any amount due Vendor under this Agreement or any other agreement
between the County and Vendor. The County shall be under no obligation to purchase such
insurance, nor shall it be responsible for the coverage(s) purchased or the insurance company or
companies used. The decision of the County to purchase such insurance coverage(s) shall in no
way be construed to be a waiver of any of its rights under the Contract Documents.

the scope of work, the Vendor shall furnish to the County renewal or replacement Certificate(s) of
Insurance not later than ten (10) calendar days after the expiration date on the certificate. Failure

in the E-Verify program, and provide acceptable evidence of their enrollment, at the time of the submission of the
vendor's/bidder's proposal. Acceptable evidence consists of a copy of the properly completed E-Verify Company
Profile page or a copy of the fully executed E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding for the company. Failure to
include this Affidavit and acceptable evidence of enrollment in the E-Verify program,may deem the Vendor/
Bidder's proposal as non-responsive.
Collier County will not intentionally award County contracts to any vendor who knowingly employs unauthorized alien
workers, constituting a violation of the employment provision contained in 8 U.S.C. Section 1324 a(e) Section 274A(e) of
the Immigration and Nationality Act ("INA").
Collier County may consider the employment by any vendor of unauthorized aliens a violation of Section 274A (e) of the
INA. Such Violation by the recipient of the Employment Provisions contained in Section 274A (e) of the INA shall be
grounds for unilateral termination of the contract by Collier County.
Vendor attests that they are fully compliant with all applicable immigration laws (specifically to the 1986 Immigration Act
and subsequent Amendment(s)) and agrees to comply with the provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding with E-
Verify and to provide proof of enrollment in The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify), operated by the
Department of Homeland Security in partnership with the Social Security Administration at the time of submission of the
Vendor's/ Bidder's proposal.
