with any officer, agent, or employee of the City either before or after execution of the Contract will affect or modify any of the terms or obligations contained or to be contained in the Contract.

5.2. ASSIGNMENT - DELEGATION: No right or interest in this Contract nor monies due hereunder will be assigned in whole or in part without written permission of the City, and no delegation of any duty of the Contractor will be made without prior written permission of the City, which may be withheld for good cause.

CITY OF PHOENIX

returned to the Contractor. If so returned, all costs are the responsibility of the Contractor. Noncompliance will conform to the cancellation clause set forth in this RFP.

6.3. FORCE MAJEURE: Except for payment of sums due, neither party will be liable to the other nor deemed in default under this Contract if and to the extent that such party's performance of this Contract is prevented by reason of force majeure. The term "force majeure" means an occurrence that is beyond the control of the party affected and occurs without its fault or negligence. Force majeure will not include late performance by a subcontractor unless the delay arises out of a force majeure occurrence in accordance with this force majeure term and condition.

If either party is delayed at any time in the progress of the work by force majeure, the delayed party will notify the other party in writing of such delay, as soon as is practical, of the commencement thereof and will specify the causes of such delay in such notice. Such notice will be hand-delivered or mailed certified-return receipt and will make a specific reference to this provision, thereby invoking its provisions. The delayed party will cause such delay to cease as soon as practicable and will notify the other party in writing when it has done so. The time of completion will be extended by Contract modification for a period of time equal to the time that results or effects of such delay prevent the delayed party from performing in accordance with this Contract.

6.4. LOSS OF MATERIALS: The City does not assume any responsibility, at any time, for the protection of or for loss of materials, from the time that the Contract operations have commenced until the final acceptance of the work by the project manager.

6.5. CONTRACT PERFORMANCE: The Contractor will furnish all necessary labor, tools, equipment, and supplies to perform the required services at the City facilities designated, unless otherwise specifically addressed in the scope or elsewhere in this Contract. The City's authorized representative will decide all questions that may arise as to the quality and acceptability of any work performed under the Contract. If, in the opinion of the City's authorized representative, performance becomes unsatisfactory, the City will notify the Contractor.

The Contractor will have thirty (30) days from that time to correct any specific instances of unsatisfactory performance, unless a different amount of time is specified in this Contract. In the event the unsatisfactory performance is not corrected within the time specified, the City will have the


CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 15 of 344

immediate right to complete the work to its satisfaction and will deduct the cost to cover from any balances due or to become due the Contractor. Repeated incidences of unsatisfactory performance may result in cancellation of this Contract for default.

6.6. DAMAGE TO CITY PROPERTY: The Contractor will perform all work so that no damage to the building or grounds results. The Contractor will repair any damage caused to the satisfaction of the City at no cost to the City.

The Contractor will take care to avoid damage to adjacent finished materials that are to remain. If finished materials are damaged, the Contractor will repair and finish to match existing material as approved by the City at the Contractor's expense.

7. CITY’S CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS:

7.2. NON-EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES: The rights and remedies of the City under this Contract are non-exclusive.

7.3. DEFAULT IN ONE INSTALLMENT TO CONSTITUTE BREACH: Each installment or lot of this Contract is dependent on every other installment or lot and a delivery of non-conforming goods or a default of any nature under one installment or lot will impair the value of the whole agreement and constitutes a total breach of this Contract as a whole.

7.4. ON TIME DELIVERY: Because the City is providing services that involve health, safety and welfare of the general public, delivery time is of the essence. Delivery must be made in accordance with the delivery schedule promised by the Contractor.

7.5.

COVENANT AGAINST CONTINGENT FEES: The Contractor warrants that no person or selling agent has been employed or retained to solicit or secure this Contract upon an agreement or understanding for a commission, percentage, brokerage, or contingent fee, except bona fide employers or bona fide established commercial or selling agencies maintained by the Contractor for the purpose of securing business.

33. INTERPRETATION: The Contractor agrees that the rule that an ambiguity in a

contract is construed against the drafter of the contract is waived and does not apply to this Contract. The Contractor agrees that the provisions of this Contract must be interpreted fairly and not against the City.

34. CLAIMS OR DEMANDS AGAINST THE CITY: The Contractor acknowledges the

provisions of Chapter XVIII, § 14 of the Charter of the City of Phoenix (claims or demands against the City) and A.R.S. §§ 12-821 and 12-821.01 (notice of claim


CITY OF PHOENIX

statutes) and agrees to comply with the procedures set forth therein for presenting claims or demands against the City. Nothing in this Contract constitutes a contractual term, an alternative dispute resolution procedure, or an administrative claims process or review process, as those terms are used in § 12-821.01(C), so as to affect the date on which a cause of action accrues under § 12-821.01(A) and (B).

conduct at the minimum one (1) test per week of compliance to ensures its employees are performing in the manner prescribed in the post orders.

Critical Infrastructure Information (CII) means information, whether physical or virtual, not customarily in the public domain and related to the security of critical infrastructure or protected systems.

CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 36 of 344

Sensitive Security Information (SSI) means information that is obtained or developed in the conduct of security activities, including research and development. Documents containing SSI are exempt from disclosure under TSA, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Title 49 CFR Parts 15 and 1520, and as set forth in 49 CFR § 1520.5 Documents marked SSI may not be copied or distributed and must be safe guarded by the Contractor.

Passwords are intended for the exclusive use of a specific individual. While user IDs may be shared in electronic mail messages and in other places, passwords must never be shared with anyone. The Contractor’s employees are responsible for all activity that takes place with their City-provided user ID and password or other authentication mechanism. Employees must immediately change their passwords if they suspect they have been discovered or used by another person. The Contractor’s employees must logoff from multi-user systems connected to any City internal network when they leave their desks for more than a few minutes.

The Contractor’s employees must not test or attempt to compromise computer or communication system security measures. Incidents involving unapproved system hacking, password guessing file decryption, bootleg software copying, or similar unauthorized attempts to compromise security measures may be unlawful and may result in immediate termination of the contract without notice. Short cuts bypassing systems security measures, pranks, and practical jokes involving the compromise of systems security measures are absolutely prohibited. The Contractor must report all significant changes in staff duties or employment status promptly to the system administrator responsible for applicable user IDs. The Contractor must immediately notify the ADR or designee if other access control mechanisms are broken or if it suspects that these mechanisms have been compromised.

40. PASSWORD MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES:

The creation of passwords must be in accordance with City information technology standards and procedures. The Contractor’s employees must choose fixed passwords that are difficult to guess. Passwords must not be related to a user’s job or personal life. Passwords must not be a word found in the dictionary or some other part of speech.

The Contractor’s employees must not construct passwords that are identical or similar to passwords they have previously used. The Contractor’s employees must not share a fixed password with anyone, including supervisors and co-workers. Employees must employ mechanisms authorized by the Aviation Director to share information, such as local server shared directories, electronic mail, public directories on local area network servers, intranet pages, or floppy disks. The Contractor’s employees must not store fixed passwords in any computer files, such as logon scripts or computer programs, unless the passwords have been encrypted with authorized encryption software. Passwords must not be written down unless a transformation process has concealed them, or they are physically secured, such as placed in a locked file cabinet.

Aside from initial password assignment and password-reset situations, if there is reason to believe that a password has been disclosed to someone other than the authorized user, the password must be changed.

CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 43 of 344

4.6 Offeror’s responses that do not meet the above minimum qualifications will be deemed non-responsive.

5. PREPARATION OF OFFER:

5.1 The City is issuing a single RFP for the award of up to three (3) separate

Contracts. The City will review all proposals submitted in response to this

RFP. However, no Offeror or business or person affiliated with the Offeror

may submit multiple proposals. If multiple proposals are received from

affiliated persons or entities, all proposals from those affiliated persons or

entities will be deemed non-responsive and rejected.

5.2 All forms provided in Submittal Section must be completed and submitted

with the offer. The signed and completed Solicitation Disclosure form must

be included or your offer may be deemed non-responsive.

5.3 It is permissible to copy Submittal forms if necessary. Erasures,

interlineations, or other modifications of the offer must be initialed in original

ink by the authorized person signing the offer. No offer will be altered,

amended or withdrawn after the specified offer due date and time. The City

is not responsible for Offeror’s errors or omissions.

5.4 All time periods stated as a number of days will be calendar days.

5.5 It is the responsibility of all Offerors to examine the entire solicitation and

seek clarification of any requirement that may not be clear and to check all

responses for accuracy before submitting an offer. Negligence in preparing

an offer confers no right of withdrawal after due date and time. Offerors are

strongly encouraged to:

5.5.1 Consider applicable laws and/or economic conditions that may affect

cost, progress, performance, or furnishing of the products or

services.

5.5.2 Study and carefully correlate Offeror’s knowledge and observations

with the solicitation and other related data.

5.5.3 Promptly notify the City of all conflicts, errors, ambiguities, or

discrepancies that Offeror has discovered in or between the

solicitation and other related documents.

5.5.4 The City does not reimburse the cost of developing, presenting or

providing any response to this solicitation. Offers submitted for

consideration should be prepared simply and economically,

providing adequate information in a straightforward and concise



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 44 of 344

manner. The Offeror is responsible for all costs incurred in

responding to this solicitation. All materials and documents

submitted in response to this solicitation become the property of the

City and will not be returned.

5.5.5 Offerors are reminded that the specifications stated in the solicitation

are the minimum level required and that offers submitted must be for

products or services that meet or exceed the minimum level of all

features specifically listed in this solicitation. Offers offering less than

any minimum specifications or criteria specified are not responsive

and should not be submitted.

5.5.6 Offer responses submitted for products considered by the seller to

be acceptable alternates to the brand names or manufacturer’s

catalog references specified herein must be submitted with technical

literature and/or detailed product brochures for the City’s use to

evaluate the products offered. Offers submitted without this product

information may be considered as non-responsive and rejected. The

City will be the sole judge as to the acceptability of alternate products

offered.

5.5.7 Prices will be submitted on a per unit basis by line item, when

applicable. In the event of a disparity between the unit price and

extended price, the unit price will prevail unless obviously in error.

6. EXCEPTIONS: Offerors must conform to all of the requirements specified in the

solicitation. The City encourages Offerors to send inquiries to the procurement

officer rather than including exceptions in their Offer.

6.1. If an Offeror has exceptions based on the scope then Offeror must include

a list of exceptions to the requirements of the solicitation and attachment documents, if any, stated on a separate page labeled “Exceptions Statement.” Offeror must identify the reason for the requested change, provide alternate language and provide an explanation.

6.2. It is the intent of the City to award a contract on a fair, competitive basis.

For this reason, the City may view any “Exception” in response to any material conditions or requirement of the solicitation, as an attempt by the Offeror to vary the terms of the solicitation which, in fact, may result in giving the Offeror an unfair advantage. For this reason, the City will, at its option, not allow exceptions to any material requirement if, in the opinion of the City, the exceptions alter the overall intent of the solicitation, unless the exception would be of material benefit to the City. Additionally, the City may, at its



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 45 of 344

option, deem any submittal non-responsive based on exceptions by the Offeror.

indicated in the Schedule of Events. The City will not consider questions received

with members of City’s staff from date of distribution of this solicitation until after

issues related to this solicitation must be presented in writing.

The Procurement Officer will answer written inquiries in an addendum and publish

any addendums on the Procurement Website.

16. AWARD OF CONTRACT: Unless otherwise indicated, award(s) will be made to

the highest scored responsive, responsible Offeror(s) who are regularly

established in the service contained in this solicitation and who have demonstrated

the ability to perform the required service in an acceptable manner.

Contract category, Airport Security (Non-Regulatory) will be awarded to the Offeror with the highest scoring proposal. If no responsive or responsible proposals are received for the Airport Security (Non-Regulatory), the City reserves the right to award to the Regulatory category. Notwithstanding any other provision of this solicitation, the City reserves the right to: (1) waive any immaterial defect or informality; or (2) reject any or all offers or portions thereof; or (3) reissue a solicitation. A response to a solicitation is an offer to contract with the City based upon the terms, conditions, and specifications contained in the City’s solicitation. Offers do not become contracts until they are executed by the Aviation Department Director. A contract has its inception in the award, eliminating a formal signing of a separate contract. For that reason, all of the terms, conditions and specifications of the procurement contract are contained in the solicitation, and in any addendum or contract amendment.

17. SOLICITATION TRANSPARENCY POLICY:

17.1 Commencing on the date and time a solicitation is published, potential or

actual offerors or respondents (including their representatives) shall only

discuss matters associated with the solicitation with the Mayor, any

members of City Council, the City Manager, any Deputy City Manager, or

any department director directly associated with the solicitation (including in

each case their assigned staff, except for the designated procurement

officer) at a public meeting, posted under Arizona Statutes, until the

resulting contract(s) are awarded to all offers or responses are rejected and

the solicitation is cancelled without any announcement by the Procurement

Officer of the City’s intent to reissue the same or similar solicitation.

17.2 As long as the solicitation is not discussed, Offerors may continue to

conduct business with the City and discuss business that is unrelated to the

solicitation with the City staff. Offerors may not discuss the solicitation with

any City employees or evaluation panel members, except the procurement

officer.



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 48 of 344

17.3 Offerors may discuss their proposal or the solicitation with the Mayor or one

or more members of the Phoenix City Council, provided such meetings are

scheduled through the Procurement Officer, and are posted as open

meetings with the City Clerk at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled

meetings. The City Clerk will be responsible for posting the meetings. The

posted notice shall identify the participants and the subject matter, as well

as invite the public to participate.

17.4 With respect to the selection of the successful Offerors, the City Manager

and/or City Manager's Office will continue the past practice of exerting no

undue influence on the process. In all solicitations of bids and proposals,

any direction on the selection from the City Manager and/or City Manager's

Office and Department Head (or representative) to the proposal review

panel or selecting authority must be provided in writing to all prospective

Offerors.

17.5 This policy is intended to create a level playing field for all Offerors, assure

that contracts are awarded in public, and protect the integrity of the selection

process. PROPOSERS THAT VIOLATE THIS POLICY SHALL BE

DISQUALIFIED. After official Notice is received by the City for

disqualification, the Proposer may follow the Protest process, unless the

Solicitation is cancelled without notice of intent to re-issue.

17.6 “To discuss” means any contact by the proposer, regardless of whether the

City responds to the contact. Offerors that violate this policy shall be

disqualified until the resulting contract(s) are awarded, or all offers or

responses are rejected and the solicitation is cancelled without any

announcement by the Procurement Officer of the City’s intent to reissue the

same or a similar solicitation. The City interprets the policy as continuing

through a cancellation of a solicitation until Council award of the contract,

as long as the City cancels with a statement that the City will rebid the

solicitation.

18. PROTEST PROCESS:

18.1. Offeror may protest the contents of a solicitation no later than seven days before the solicitation deadline when the protest is based on an apparent alleged mistake, impropriety or defect in the solicitation. Protests filed regarding the solicitation may be addressed by an amendment to the solicitation or denied by the City. If denied, the opening and award will



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 49 of 344

proceed unless the City determines that it is in the City’s best interests to set new deadlines, amend the solicitation, cancel or re-bid.

18.2. Therefore, unless otherwise notified by a formal amendment, the Protester

must adhere to all solicitation dates and deadlines, including timely filing of an offer, regardless of filing a protest.

18.3. Offeror may protest an adverse determination issued by the City regarding

responsibility and responsiveness, within seven days of the date the Offeror was notified of the adverse determination.

18.4. Offeror may protest an award recommendation if the Offeror can establish

that it had a substantial chance of being awarded the contract and will be harmed by the recommended award.

interest within a reasonable timeframe as determined by the Aviation Director.

24. EVALUATION OF COMPETITIVE SEALED OFFERS: The City will use its

discretion in applying the following processes to this solicitation. Any ties in scoring

will be resolved with a best and final price request and the lowest price will prevail.

25. DETERMINING RESPONSIVENESS AND RESPONSIBILITY:

25.1 Offers will be reviewed for documentation of minimum qualifications, completeness, and compliance with this RFP’s requirements. The City reserves sole discretion to determine responsiveness and responsibility.

25.2 Responsiveness: Non-responsive Offers will not be considered in the

evaluation process. This RFP states criteria that determine responsiveness and includes terms and conditions that, if included or excluded from offers (as the case may be), will render an offer non-responsive.

25.3 Exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings are presumed to be

unacceptable, and an offer that includes unacceptable exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings may be rejected as non-responsive. Alternatively, the City, in its sole discretion, may instruct in writing that an Offeror remove the conditions, exceptions, reservations or understandings. If the Offeror fails to do so in writing, the City may determine the offer to be non-responsive.

25.4 Responsibility: To obtain true economy, the City must conduct solicitations

to minimize the possibility of a subsequent default by the Contractor, late deliveries, or other unsatisfactory performance that may result in additional



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 52 of 344

administrative costs. It is important that the successful Offeror be a responsible contractor. Responsibility includes the Offeror’s integrity, skill, capacity, experience, and facilities for conducting the work to be performed.

25.5 The Procurement Officer, in consultation with legal counsel, will review each

Offer to determine if the Offeror is responsible. The City’s determination as to whether an Offeror is responsible will be based on the information furnished by the Offeror, interviews (if any), any information at the City’s request, information in any best and final offer, and information received from Offeror’s references, including information about Offeror’s past history, terminations for convenience or cause, contract breach lawsuits or notices of claim and any other sources the City deems appropriate. Award of the Contract resulting from this RFP will not be made until any necessary investigation, which each Offeror agrees to permit by submitting its Offer, is made by the City as it deems necessary. A review of responsibility may occur up to Contract award.

25.6 The Offeror’s failure to promptly supply information in connection with an

inquiry with respect to responsibility may be grounds for a determination of non-responsibility with respect to the Offeror.

26. DETAILED EVALUATION OF OFFERS AND DETERMINATION OF

COMPETITIVE RANGE: During deliberations, the evaluation panel will reach a

consensus score for each evaluation criterion, except price. The Procurement

Officer will score the price, which will be added to the overall consensus score.

The overall consensus scores will determine the Offerors’ rankings and which

Offers are within the competitive range, when appropriate.

27. OFFERS NOT WITHIN THE COMPETITIVE RANGE: The City may notify Offerors

of offers that the City determined are not in the competitive range.

28. DISCUSSIONS WITH OFFERORS IN THE COMPETITIVE RANGE:

28.1 The City will notify each Offeror whose offer is in the competitive range or made the ‘short list’ and provide in writing any questions or requests for clarification to the Offeror. Each Offeror so notified may be interviewed by the City and asked to discuss answers to written or oral questions or provide clarifications to any facet of its Offer. The Offerors in the competitive range may be required to provide a demonstration of their product.

28.2 Demonstrations - Offerors in the competitive range may be invited to

conduct a hands-on sample or presentation of their solution at the City of



CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 53 of 344

Phoenix. In addition, each finalist may prepare and deliver a presentation of their proposed solution based on the script developed by the evaluation panel. The City may also require a hands-on lab demonstration designed specifically for the evaluation panel. The results of the surveys will be tabulated and delivered to the evaluation team for the final review and solution selection session(s).

28.3 If an offer in the competitive range contains conditions, exceptions,

reservations or understandings to or about any Contract or RFP requirement, the City may discuss or negotiate the conditions, exceptions, reservations or understandings during these meetings. The City, in its sole discretion, may reject any and all conditions, exceptions, reservations and understandings, and the City may instruct any Offeror to remove the conditions, exceptions, reservations or understandings. If the Offeror fails to do so, the City may determine the offer is non-responsive and the City may revoke its determination that the offer is in the competitive range.

28.4 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the City will not provide any

information, financial or otherwise, to any Offeror about other offers received in response to this RFP. During discussions with Offerors in the competitive range, the City will not give Offerors specific prices or specific financial requirements that Offerors must meet to qualify for further consideration. The City may state that proposed prices are too high with respect to the marketplace or otherwise unacceptable. Offerors will not be told of their relative rankings before Contract award.

29. BEST AND FINAL OFFERS (BAFO):

29.1 A BAFO is an option available for negotiation. Offerors in the competitive range, which is determined in the City’s sole discretion, may be afforded the opportunity to amend its Offer and make one BAFO.

29.2 If an Offeror’s BAFO modifies its initial Offer, the modification must be

identified in the BAFO. The City will evaluate BAFOs based on the same requirements and criteria applicable to initial Offers. The City will adjust appropriately the initial scores for criteria that have been affected by Offer modifications made by a BAFO. Based on the criteria defined in this RFP, as weighted, the City will then perform final scoring and prepare final rankings.

29.3 The evaluation panel will recommend the Offer that is the best value and

most advantageous to the City based on the evaluation criteria.

25.3 Exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings are presumed to be unacceptable, and an Offer that includes unacceptable exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings may be rejected as non-responsive. Alternatively, the City, in its sole discretion, may instruct in writing that an Offeror remove the conditions, exceptions, reservations or

25.4 Responsibility: To obtain true economy, the City must conduct solicitations to minimize the possibility of a subsequent default by the Contractor, late deliveries, or other unsatisfactory performance that may result in additional administrative costs. It is important that the successful Offeror be a responsible contractor. Responsibility includes the Offeror’s integrity, skill, capacity, experience, and facilities for conducting the work to be performed.

25.5 The Procurement Officer, in consultation with legal counsel, will review each Offer to determine if the Offeror is responsible.

specifically for the evaluation panel. The results of the surveys will be

tabulated and delivered to the evaluation team for the final review and

solution selection session(s).

28.3 If an Offer in the competitive range contains conditions, exceptions,

reservations or understandings to or about any Contract or RFP

requirement, the City may discuss or negotiate the conditions, exceptions,

reservations or understandings during these meetings. The City, in its

sole discretion, may reject any and all conditions, exceptions, reservations

and understandings, and the City may instruct any Offeror to remove the

conditions, exceptions, reservations or understandings. If the Offeror fails

to do so, the City may determine the Offer is non-responsive, and the City

may revoke its determination that the Offer is in the competitive range.

received in response to this RFP. During discussions with Offerors in the

competitive range, the City will not give Offerors specific prices or specific

financial requirements that Offerors must meet to qualify for further

consideration. The City may state that proposed prices are too high with

respect to the marketplace or otherwise unacceptable. Offerors will not be

told of their relative rankings before Contract award.

40 BOND REQUIREMENT FOR U.S. CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION

FEDERAL INSPECTION STATION SECURITY AREA

All air carriers, tenants, contractors and vendors (Companies) whose employees are required to conduct business in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Federal Inspection Station (FIS) security area are required to post a bond with CBP, guaranteed by surety, to assure compliance with CBP FIS security rules and regulations. This is generally an “active” continuous CBP Form 301 Customs Bond. Companies must provide CBP with a copy of the bond location where the bond is filed. If there is no active Customs Bond on file, the application shall be supported by an Airport Customs Security Area Bond, as set forth in Appendix A of 19 C.F.R. Part 113. The employer shall post a separate Airport CBP Security Area Bond at each airport of operation. (At this time, we encourage use of the Form 301 Bond). The face value amount of the Airport Customs Security Area Bond specifies the maximum liability of the surety. Determinations as to bond’s face value sufficiency will be based on the number of covered employees and the Company’s general compliance history. The minimum face value of the bond required by CBP will depend on how many employees will require access to the CBP FIS security area: Less than 15 employees $25,000 Between 15 to 25 employees $50,000 More than 25 employees $100,000 However, the CBP Port Director may elect to raise the face value due to historical compliance of the Company. A Company must have a valid bond in order to have employees with CBP FIS security seals.

6. EXCEPTIONS: Offerors must conform to all of the requirements specified in this

6.2 It is the intent of the City to award a contract on a fair and competitive basis.

For this reason, the City will, at its option, not allow exceptions to any material requirement if, in the opinion of the City, the exceptions alter the overall intent of this RFP, unless the exception would be of material benefit to the City. Additionally, the City may, at its option, deem any Offer non-responsive based on exceptions by the Offeror.

confidential, then Offeror must isolate the pages marked confidential in a specific

and clearly labeled section of its Offer response. An Offeror may request specific

information contained in its Offer be treated by the Procurement Officer as

identified by the Offerors “confidential” available to the public unless necessary to

support the evaluation process or if specifically requested in accordance with

applicable public records law. When a public records request for such information

is received, the Procurement Officer will notify the Offeror in writing of any request

to view any portion of its Offer marked “confidential.” The Offeror will have the time

set forth in the notice to obtain a court order enjoining such disclosure. If the Offeror

does not provide the Procurement Officer with a court order enjoining release of

the information during the designated time, the Procurement Officer will make the

information requested available for inspection.

disqualification is at the sole discretion of the City. By submission of an Offer, the

Offeror waives any right to object now or at any future time, before any agency or

body including, but not limited to, the Phoenix City Council or any court as to the

exercise by the City of such right to disqualify or as to any disqualification by reason

of real or apparent conflict of interest determined by the City. The City reserves the

right to replace the disqualified Offeror.

if indicated in the Schedule of Events. Submission of an Offer will be prima facie

25.3 Exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings are presumed to be

unacceptable, and an Offer that includes unacceptable exceptions, conditions, reservations, or understandings may be rejected as non-responsive. Alternatively, the City in its sole discretion may instruct in writing


CITY OF PHOENIX


Phoenix, AZ 85034


Page 257 of 344

that an Offeror remove the conditions, exceptions, reservations or understandings. If the Offeror fails to do so in writing, the City may determine the Offer to be non-responsive.

25.4 Responsibility: To obtain true economy, the City must conduct solicitations

to minimize the possibility of a subsequent default by the Contractor, late deliveries, or other unsatisfactory performance that may result in additional administrative costs. It is important that the successful Offeror be a responsible contractor. Responsibility includes the Offeror’s integrity, skill, capacity, experience, and facilities for conducting the work to be performed.

25.5 The Procurement Officer, in consultation with legal counsel, will review each

Offer to determine if the Offeror is responsible. The City’s determination as to whether an Offeror is responsible will be based on the information furnished by the Offeror, interviews (if any), any information at the City’s request, information in any best and final offer, and information received from Offeror’s references, including information about Offeror’s past history, terminations for convenience or cause, contract breach lawsuits or notices of claim and any other sources the City deems appropriate.

discretion, may reject any and all conditions, exceptions, reservations and

40. BOND REQUIREMENT FOR U.S. CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION

FEDERAL INSPECTION STATION SECURITY AREA

All air carriers, tenants, contractors and vendors (Companies) whose employees are required to conduct business in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Federal Inspection Station (FIS) security area are required to post a bond with CBP, guaranteed by surety, to assure compliance with CBP FIS security rules and regulations. This is generally an “active” continuous CBP Form 301 Customs Bond. Companies must provide CBP with a copy of the bond location where the bond is filed. If there is no active Customs Bond on file, the application shall be supported by an Airport Customs Security Area Bond, as set forth in Appendix A of 19 C.F.R. Part 113. The employer shall post a separate Airport CBP Security Area Bond at each airport of operation. (At this time, we encourage use of the Form 301 Bond). The face value amount of the Airport Customs Security Area Bond specifies the maximum liability of the surety. Determinations as to bond’s face value sufficiency will be based on the number of covered employees and the Company’s general compliance history. The minimum face value of the bond required by CBP will depend on how many employees will require access to the CBP FIS security area: Less than 15 employees $25,000 Between 15 to 25 employees $50,000 More than 25 employees $100,000 However, the CBP Port Director may elect to raise the face value due to historical compliance of the Company. A Company must have a valid bond in order to have employees with CBP FIS security seals.
