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 87-25, and Collier County Resolution Number 2008-181 establishing and adopting the Collier County Purchasing Policy. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners has adopted a Local Preference "Right to Match" policy to enhance the opportunities of local businesses to receive awards of Collier County purchases. A"local business" is defined as a business that has a valid Business Tax Receipt, formerly known oak as an Occupational License issued by either Collier or Lee County for a minimum of one (1) year prior to a Collier County quote or proposal submission that authorizes the business to provide the commodities or services to be purchased, and a physical business address located within the limits of Collier or Lee Counties from which the vendor operates or performs business. Post Office Boxes are not verifiable and 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 either Collier or Lee County in a verifiable and measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment opportunities, the support and increase to either Collier or Lee County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of the business within Collier or Lee County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their compliance with the foregoing at the time of submitting their quote or proposal to be eligible for consideration as a "local business" under this section. When a qualified and responsive non-local business submits the lowest price quote, and the quote submitted by one or more qualified and responsive local businesses is within ten percent (10%) of the price submitted by the non-local business, then the local business with the apparent lowest quote offer(i.e. the lowest local vendor) shall have the opportunity to submit an offer to match the price(s) offered by the overall lowest, qualified and responsive vendor. In such instances, staff shall first verify if the lowest non-local vendor and the lowest local vendor are in fact qualified and responsive vendors. Next, the Purchasing Department shall determine if the lowest local vendor meets the requirements of Section 287.087 F.S. If the lowest local vendor meets the requirements of 287.087, F.S., the Purchasing Department shall invite the lowest local vendor to submit a matching offer to the Purchasing Department which #xx-xxxx 10 ITB Template_08152012 Packet Page-1927- 3/12/2013 16.E.7. shall be submitted within five (5) business days thereafter. If the lowest local vendor submits an offer that fully matches the lowest quote from the lowest non-local vendor tendered previously, then award shall be made to the local vendor. If the lowest local vendor declines or is unable to match the lowest non local quote price(s), then award will be made to the lowest overall qualified and responsive vendor. If the lowest local vendor does not meet the requirement of Section 287.087 F.S. and the lowest non-local vendor does, award will be made to the vendor that meets the requirements of the referenced state law. Vendor must complete and submit with its quote response the Affidavit for Claiming Status as a Local Business which is included as part of this solicitation. Failure on the part of a Vendor to submit this Affidavit with their quote response will preclude said Vendor from being considered for local preference under this solicitation. A Vendor who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a quote 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 any of the competing vendors 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 BidderNendor 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. #xx-xxxx 11 ITB Template_08152012 Packet Page-1928- 3/12/2013 16.E.7. Vendor acknowledges, and without exception or stipulation, any firm(s) receiving an award shall be fully responsible for complying with the provisions of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 as located at 8 U.S.C. 1324, et seq. and regulations relating thereto, as either may be amended and with the provisions contained within this affidavit. Failure by the awarded firm(s)to comply with the laws referenced herein or the provisions of this affidavit shall constitute a breach of the award agreement and the County shall have the discretion to unilaterally terminate said agreement immediately. 14. Lobbying All firms are hereby placed on NOTICE that the County Commission does not wish to be lobbied either individually or collectively about a project for which a firm has submitted a bid. Firms and their agents are not to contact members of the County Commission for such purposes as meetings of introduction, luncheons, dinners, etc. During the bidding process, from bid opening to final Board approval, no firm or its agent shall contact any other employee of Collier County with the exception of the Purchasing Department. 15.

General Information When it is deemed by the County that a bid cannot be awarded as originally intended, the County reserves the right to award this bid through an approach which is the best interest of the County. Alternate bids will not be considered unless authorized by the ITB. In case of identical bids tying as low bid, the County shall ask vendors to submit certification that they have a drug-free workplace in accordance with Section 287.087 Florida Statutes. Should all vendors provide said certification; the County will give local vendor preference. 17. Bid Award Process Award of contract will be made by the Board of County Commissioners in public session. Awards pertaining to the Collier County Airport Authority will generally be made by that agency's approval Board. Award shall be made in a manner consistent with the County's Purchasing Policy.
