Bidders or Offerors are further notified that the City's governing body may not give preference to a Bidder or Offeror based on the Bidder's or Offeror's social, political, or ideological interests.

• CONTRACTOR'S FINANCIAL/EXPERIENCE RECORD —

  The City shall have the right to investigate the financial condition and experience record of the Bidder or Offeror, and determine to its satisfaction the competency of the Bidder or Offeror to undertake the requested services in the solicitation.

• SOLICITATION PROTEST PROCEDURE —
  1. After a Notice of Intent to Award a contract is posted, any actual or prospective Bidder or Offeror claiming to be aggrieved in connection with the pending award of the Contract or any element of the process leading to the award of the Contract may protest to the City Manager. A protest must be filed by 5:00 PM on the third (3rd) Business Day after posting of the Notice of Award (excluding the day that the Notice is posted) or any right to protest is waived. The protest must be in writing, must identify the name and address of the protester, and must include a factual summary of, and the basis for, the protest. Filing shall be considered complete when the protest and a Bid Protest Bond are timely received by the City Manager’s Office.
  2. A Bid Protest Bond shall accompany the written protest, to compensate City for the expenses of administering the protest. If the protest is decided in the protester's favor, the entire deposit shall be returned to the protester. If the protest is not decided in the protester's favor, the deposit shall be retained by the City. The deposit shall be in the form of a cashier's check, and shall be the one percent (1%) of the amount of the pending award to the initial successful Bidder or five thousand ($5,000.00) dollars, whichever is less.
  3. The Protest Committee shall have the authority to review, settle, and resolve all protests. Members of the Protest Committee will be appointed by the City Manager. If the Protest Committee determines that the pending award of a contract or any element of the process leading to the award involved a significant violation of law, applicable rule or regulation, all steps necessary and proper to correct the violation shall be taken. If the Protest Committee determines that the protest has merit, the City Manager shall direct that all appropriate steps are to be taken to remedy it.
  4. In the event of a timely protest, the City Manager shall stay the award of the Contract unless, after consulting with the City Attorney and a representative from the City’s Department for which the services are being obtained, the City Manager determines that the award of the Contract without delay is necessary to protect the substantial interests of the City. The continuation of the bid award process under these circumstances shall not preempt or otherwise affect the protest.
• LITIGATION —
  1. In addition to any other provision of this solicitation, the City may, in its absolute discretion, reject a Bid or Proposal if the Bidder or Offeror, or any officer or director of the Bidder or Offeror submitting the Bid or Proposal, is or has been engaged directly or indirectly in legal action against the City, its elected or appointed officers, representatives or employees in relation to any matter.
  2. In determining whether or not to reject a Bid or Proposal under this section, the City will consider whether the litigation is likely to affect the Bidder’s or Offeror's ability to work with the City, its consultants and representatives and whether the City’s experience with the Bidder or Offeror indicates that there is a risk that the City will incur increased staff and legal costs in the administration of the contract if it is awarded to the Bidder or Offeror.
  3. A contract with the successful Bidder or Offeror will include the following:
     GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. The law of the State of Florida shall govern the contract. The contract is not subject to arbitration. THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY FOR ANY DISPUTES ARISING FROM, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL CONTRACT TERM. 
  4. All claims, counterclaims, disputes and other matters in question between City and the Contractor arising out of, relating to or pertaining to the Contract, the breach of it, the services of it, or the standard of performance required in it, are to be addressed by resort to non-binding mediation as authorized under the laws and rules of Florida; provided, however, that in the event of any dispute between the parties, the parties agree to first negotiate with each other for a resolution of the matter or matters in dispute and, upon failure of such negotiations to resolve the dispute, the parties shall resort to mediation. If mediation is unsuccessful, any such matter may be determined by litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction in Broward County, Florida, or the Federal District Court of the Southern District of Florida and appropriate appellate courts for such venue and jurisdiction. If City or Contractor incurs any expense in enforcing the terms of the Contractor, whether suit is brought or not, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses including, but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorney fees.
• CONTRACT AWARD AND EXECUTION —
  1. Bid or Proposal Opening and Evaluation: The City will publicly open and announce all bids or proposals it receives by total amount in accordance with the terms of the advertisement. The City will verify all bidders or offerors have properly submitted and executed all required solicitation documents and forms; review all bids or proposals for accuracy; prepare a tabulation of the bids showing the item details and total bid for all responsible bids; check for conformance of all bids or proposals to the engineer's estimate; evaluate unbalanced bid or proposal items; confirm the bid tabulations; and provide a recommendation for award of bid or proposal or recommendation for re-advertisement, if appropriate, to the City Commission.
  2. Rejection of Bids or Proposals: The City may reject bids or proposals in the following circumstances:
     1. where the low bid differs from the engineer's estimate by an unreasonable amount (reasonable conformance pursuant to 23 CFR 635.114(c)) 
     2. where obvious unbalancing of unit prices has occurred, or 
     3. where competition is considered to be inadequate relative to the size, type, and location of the project.
  3. Prohibition of Negotiations with Contractors or Bidders or Offerors: Negotiations with contractors are not permitted during the advertisement, award, or execution period of the contracting process.
  4. Contract Award and Execution: The City will enter into a contract with the lowest priced and the most responsive and responsible bidder. If the City is unable to come to terms with the lowest priced and the most responsive and responsible bidder, the City shall initiate the award process with the next lower priced most responsive and responsible bidder, and so on, until a contract is executed.
     The City is under no obligation to accept any Bid submitted. The City reserves the right in its sole discretion to waive informalities in, or, at any time in the process and to reject any or all Bids at any time. 
     All costs incurred in the preparation and presentation of any Bid shall be wholly absorbed by the Bidder. All supporting documentation and manuals submitted with any Bid will become the property of the City of Dania Beach unless otherwise requested by the Bidder at the time of submission.
