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. 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 16-6595 Mitigation Credits 8 16A16 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 therequirements 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.

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.

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.
