<br /> <br />Bid prices must be based on bulk deliveries amount as specified via the electronic bid platform <br />https://bacwa.org/bacc/ . Bids that do not include unit prices for bulk deliveries to each geographic region <br />specified on the electronic bid platform will be considered irregular and, at the option of BACC and the <br />participating BACC agencies, may be eliminated from further consideration. For bulk deliveries of less than <br />this specified amount, the bidder may, at their option, assess additional charges for “short loads” unless <br />specific requirements for smaller deliveries are described in paragraph 3.7 Delivery Requirements. Any <br />additional “short load” charges must be shown by the bidder as a specific deviation on the bid contract <br />documents. Bidders and/or third party haulers will not be allowed to refuse to make “short load” <br />deliveries. <br /> <br />Any optional item will be shown as a separate line item in the electronic bid platform <br />https://bacwa.org/bacc/ and bidders may, at their option, submit unit prices for the optional item. Bids <br />that do not include unit prices for optional item will not be considered irregular and therefore such bids <br />will not be rejected for that reason. <br />If participating BACC agencies require non-bulk deliveries in containers such as buckets, barrels, or totes, <br />it will be shown as a separate line item in the electronic bid platform https://bacwa.org/bacc/ . Bidders <br />may, at their option, submit unit prices for deliveries in buckets, barrels, or totes. Bids that do not include <br />unit prices for buckets, barrels, or totes will not be considered irregular and therefore such bids will not <br />be rejected for that reason. If none of the participating BACC agencies require non-bulk deliveries in <br />containers such as buckets, barrels, or totes, the electronic bid platform https://bacwa.org/bacc/ will not <br />include spaces to enter bid prices for such non-bulk deliveries in containers such as buckets, barrels, or <br />totes, however, if a participating BACC agency later decides that they need deliveries in containers, <br />bidders may, at their option, negotiate with the BACC agency to determine a price for deliveries in <br />containers such as buckets, barrels, or totes. <br />2.5 Bidder Qualifications <br />A qualified bidder is one determined by BACC and the participating BACC agencies to meet standards of <br />business competence, reputation, financial ability, and product quality. A responsive bidder is a <br />firm/person who has submitted a bid that conforms in all material respects to the terms and conditions, <br />the specifications of the chemical, and any other requirement of the bid instructions. A responsible bidder <br />is a firm/person who has the capability in all aspects to perform full contract requirements, and who has <br />the integrity and reliability that will assure good faith and specific performance. Bidders that intend to <br />utilize a third-party hauling company for completing some or all of their deliveries must indicate the name <br />and contact information of the third-party hauling company on the Bid Form. Before submitting a bid, the <br />bidder must carefully examine and read all parts of the bid contract documents and be fully informed as <br />to all existing conditions and limitations. It should be noted that, upon selection and approval of the <br />successful bidder, the entire contents of the bid contract documents will become part of the full contract <br />between the participating BACC agency and successful bidder (see paragraph 3.5 Purchase Orders / <br />Contracts). <br /> <br />7
