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 Procurement 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
affirm atively 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 pref erence consideration for the purposes of that specific
contract award. Except where f ederal or state law, or any other funding source, mandates to the
contrar y, 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 identif y how the price order of the bids received will be evaluated and determined.
W hen a qualif ied and responsive, non-local business submits the lowest price bid, and the bid
subm itted by one or more qualif ied and responsive local businesses is within ten percent of the
price subm itted 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 verif y if the lowest non-local bidder and the lowest local bidder
are in fact qualif ied and responsive bidders. Next, the Procurement Services Division shall
determ ine 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

14. 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
3299 Tamiami Trail E Ste 700
Naples FL 34112
Or emailed to: bccapclerk@collierclerk.com.
Collier County, in its sole discretion, will determine the method of payment for goods and/or
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

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

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

This Affidavit is required and should be signed, notarized by an authorized principal of the firm and submitted with formal
Invitations to Bid (ITB’s) and Request for Proposals (RFP) submittals. Further, 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. Failure to
include this Affidavit and acceptable evidence of enrollment in the E-Verify program, may deem the Vendor /

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
