OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

The District desires to award a contract or contracts based upon vendor proposals ("Solicitation Response(s)") to this Solicitation ("Solicitation"). The District is soliciting vendor proposals from vendors capable of supplying the District with RFP #20261376911 Mobile PET/CT Imaging Services (the "Service(s)"), as set forth and specified herein (See Section II below, BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS, attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes). All Solicitation Responses must be delivered to the District by the date and time, and in the manner specified in Section I.B hereof to be considered a Solicitation Response by the District.

A Solicitation Response does not commit the District to accept such Solicitation Response or to award a contract based on any Solicitation Response ("Contract Award") merely because a Solicitation Response may propose the lowest price for the Services. The District expressly reserves the right to base any Contract Award hereunder upon its evaluation of all relevant factors regarding the vendor, including, but not limited to, Service pricing and terms, management experience and expertise, industry reputation and profile, performance history, support services, location and accessibility, and any other information relevant to its evaluation. Qualifications and omissions will be considered when evaluating vendor solicitation responses. A Solicitation Response that does not meet the minimum requirements set forth in Section II below, BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS, will be disqualified.

This Solicitation is not an order and does not commit the District to pay for any costs incurred by the prospective vendor in the preparation or submission of the Solicitation or in the procurement of the Service. Service quantity estimates used herein may or may not reflect actual quantities needed or used by the District in the future, and do not commit the District to order specific Service quantities. Any Solicitation Response accompanied by terms and conditions that conflict with this Solicitation may be rejected by the District.

The District reserves the right to reject any or all Solicitation Responses and to issue a Contract Award or not to issue a Contract Award based solely on the Solicitation Responses received by the District in response to this Solicitation. However, prior to making any award hereunder, the District also reserves the right to engage in additional discussions with one or more of the vendors responding to this Solicitation.

Any prospective Respondent may request an explanation or interpretation of any portion of this Solicitation by complying with the request procedure described in Section I.C.2 below. The responses, if any, of the District to such requests are subject to and will be in the form of amendment to the Solicitation and will comply with the provisions of Section I.C.2 below. The District may elect not to respond to any or all such requests received from prospective Respondents.

SMALL OR HISTORICALLY UNDERUTILIZED BUSINESS PARTICIPATION

The District maintains a policy of encouraging and engaging in business transactions with vendors who are small or historically underutilized businesses. The District establishes a 25% good faith target goal. The District also encourages its vendors to utilize subcontractors and vendors who qualify and are certified under applicable law as HUBs. HUB Respondents are also strongly encouraged to subcontract to other HUBs to expand HUB participation beyond Respondent's own self-performance. HUB Respondents should identify and list HUB subcontractors and other relevant information under the appropriate Solicitation Response section(s) and on the Good Faith Form (). Prior to the Contract Award, a Respondent's good faith efforts to utilize HUB subcontractors and vendors in its business transactions shall be part of the criteria under which the vendor proposals will be considered. Each Respondent will be required to show in its Solicitation Response its efforts to utilize HUB subcontractors and vendors in its business transactions.

VENDOR PORTAL

Prior to the District's consideration of a Respondent's Solicitation Response each Respondent is required to register as a vendor in the District's online vendor portal, B2Gnow, located on the District's Website at: .

The District will monitor contract compliance via B2GNow. The prime vendor and any subcontractors awarded contracts as a result of this Solicitation are required to use the secure web-based system to submit project information including, but not limited to, monthly progress payment reports and other information related to HUB participation. The District may require additional information related to the contract to be provided electronically through the system at any time before, during, or after contract award. Noncompliance may result in exclusion of a vendor from future contract opportunities with the District.

COMPLIANCE WITH TEXAS GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 2252.908

Please note that Texas Government Code Section 2252.908 does not require any action until after a vendor has been awarded and a contract is ready for the District's Board of Managers approval. Form 1295s require the District's contract tracking number, which does not exist until after a vendor has been awarded.

Texas Government Code Section 2252.908 ("Section 2252.908") states that a governmental entity or state agency may not enter into certain contracts with a business entity unless the business entity submits Form 1295, a disclosure of interested parties, to the governmental entity or state agency at the time the business entity submits the signed contract to the governmental entity or state agency. Section 2252.908 applies to all contracts entered into from and after January 1, 2016 between business entities and Texas governmental entities and state agencies which meet either one of the following criteria:

1. the contract requires a vote of the governing body of the Texas governmental entity, or

2. the contract has a contractual value of at least $1 Million.

The Texas Ethics Commission has adopted a Certificate of Interested Parties form ("Form 1295") and has made it available on the TEC website.

In 2017 Section 2252.908 was amended to provide that the requirements of Section 2252.908 do not apply to the following contracts entered into or amended after January 1, 2018:

1. a contract with a publicly traded business entity, including a wholly owned subsidiary of the business entity;

2. a contract with an electric utility, as that term is defined by Section 31.002, Texas Utilities Code; or

3. a contract with a gas utility, as that term is defined by Section 121.001, Texas Utilities Code.

In the event a Contract Award is issued pursuant to this Solicitation, the Respondent receiving the Contract Award shall be required to comply with the provisions of Section 2252.908, Texas Government Code, and the Chapter 46 Rules of the TEC, prior to entry into a contract with the District. The TEC has posted a video tutorial to its website for business entity filings of Form 1295. The TEC video provides step-by-step tutorials for creating login accounts for the business entity for completing and filing Form 1295. The TEC video tutorials can be viewed on its website at:
