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 to 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 vendor fails to satisfy the County that such vendor is properly qualified

informalities, and minor irregularities in the submittals received.

XII. DELIVERY FAILURES

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.
