result in being deemed non-responsive and automatic rejection.

III. EXPLANATION TO VENDORS
Any explanation desired by a vendor regarding the meaning or interpretation of the solicitation, drawings,
specifications, etc. must be requested by the question cutoff deadline stated in the solicitation for a reply
to reach all vendors before the deadline of the solicitation. Any information given to a prospective vendor
concerning a solicitation will be furnished to all prospective vendors as an addendum to the solicitation if
such information is necessary or if the lack of such information would be prejudicial to uninformed

vendors. The written solicitation documents supersede any verbal or written communications between the
parties. Receipt of addenda should be acknowledged in the submittal. It is the vendor's responsibility to
ensure they have all applicable addenda prior to their submittal. This may be accomplished by contacting
the assigned Purchasing Associate prior to the submittal or visiting the Gwinnett County website.

to the Gwinnett County Purchasing Division with the name of the vendor, the date and hour of

completion of the opening stating that they wish to withdraw their submittal without penalty for an obvious
clerical or calculation error. Submittal may be withdrawn from consideration if the price was substantially
lower than the other submittals due solely to a mistake therein, provided pricing was submitted in good
faith, and the mistake was a clerical mistake as opposed to a judgment mistake and was due to an

unintentional arithmetic error or an unintentional omission of a quantity of work, labor or material made
directly in the compilation of the submittal. The unintentional arithmetic error or omission can be clearly
proven through inspection of the original work papers, documents, and materials used in preparing the
submittal sought to be withdrawn. The vendor's original work papers shall be the sole acceptable evidence
of error and mistake if a vendor elects to withdraw their submittal. If a quote or bid submittal is withdrawn
under the authority of this provision, the lowest remaining responsive offer shall be deemed to be low bid.
No vendor who is permitted to withdraw their submittal shall, for compensation, supply any material or
labor or perform any subcontract or other work agreement for the person or firm to whom the contract is
awarded or otherwise benefit, directly or indirectly, from the performance of the project for which the
withdrawn bid or proposal was submitted.
Vendors who fail to request withdrawal by the required forty-eight (48) hours may automatically forfeit bid
bond if a bond was required. Bid may not be withdrawn otherwise.
Withdrawal is not automatically granted and will be allowed solely at Gwinnett County's discretion.
VI. TESTING AND INSPECTION
Since tests may require several days for completion, the County reserves the right to use a portion of any
supplies before the results of the tests are determined. Cost of inspections and tests of any item that fails
to meet the specifications, shall be borne by the vendor.
VII. F.O.B. POINT
Unless otherwise stated in the request for invitation and any resulting contract, or unless qualified by the
vendor, items shall be shipped F.O.B. Destination, Freight Prepaid and Allowed. The seller shall retain title
for the risk of transportation, including the filing for loss or damages. The invoice covering the items is not
payable until items are delivered and the contract of carriage has been completed. Unless the F.O.B. clause
states otherwise, the seller assumes transportation and related charges either by payment or allowance.
VIII. PATENT INDEMNITY

nature or kind for use of any copyrighted or uncopyrighted composition, secret process, patented or
unpatented invention, articles or appliances furnished or used in the performance of the contract, for which

hundred percent (100%) payment bond must be furnished to Gwinnett County for any
solicitation as required in the solicitation package or document. Failure to submit a bid bond

acceptance at destination, or from the date correct invoice or voucher is received, whichever is the
later date. Payment is deemed to be made for the purpose of earning the discount on the date of
the County check.
XI. AWARD
A. Award will be made to either the highest scoring firm (for proposals) or the lowest responsive and
responsible vendor (for quotes/bids). The quality of the articles to be supplied, their conformity with
the specifications, their suitability to the requirements of the County, and the delivery terms will be
taken into consideration in making the award. The County may make such investigations as it
deems necessary to determine the ability of the vendor to perform, and the vendor shall furnish to
the County all such information and data for this purpose as the County may request. The County
reserves the right to reject any submittal if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of such

XII. DELIVERY FAILURES
Failure of a vendor to deliver within the time specified or within reasonable time as interpreted by the
Purchasing Director, or failure to make replacement of rejected articles/services when so requested,
immediately or as directed by the Purchasing Director, shall constitute authority for the Purchasing Director
to purchase in the open market articles/services of comparable grade to replace the articles/services
rejected or not delivered. On all such purchases, the vendor shall reimburse the County within a reasonable
time specified by the Purchasing Director for any expense incurred in excess of the contract prices, or the
County shall have the right to deduct such amount from monies owed the defaulting vendor. Alternatively,
the County may penalize the vendor one percent (1%) per day for a period of up to ten (10) days for each
day that delivery or replacement is late. Should public necessity demand it, the County reserves the right to
use or consume articles/services delivered which are substandard in quality, subject to an adjustment in
price to be determined by the Purchasing Director.
XIII. COUNTY FURNISHED PROPERTY
No material, labor or facilities will be furnished by the County unless so provided in the solicitation
package.
