Whereas this is an informal solicitation process, the MHA reserves the right to extend the posted deadline at any

time prior to the deadline, if, in the opinion of the CA, it is in the best interests of MHA to do so. MHA will not accept

quotes submitted to anyone besides the Procurement/Contract Administrator at the aforementioned email address.

Late submissions will not be accepted.

6.0 HOLD PRICES/NON-ESCALATION: By submitting a quote, and whereas the quote sum submitted is a firm-fixed

quote, each Bidder thereby agrees to "hold" or not increase the proposed quote prices during the term of the work.

7.0 PURCHASE ORDER: MHA will procure these services via purchase order for a duration of 1 year with a one-year

extension option, at MHA’s discretion, for a total of 2 years. By submitting a quote, the successful Bidder thereby

agrees to confirm receipt of the award in the manner directed by MHA. All items included in this QSP must be

amount of services MHA requires. MHA does not guarantee any amount of work.

If a pool of contractors is formed, each bidder will be ranked by total calculated bid sum submitted in

response to this QSP.

When MHA has need of work in each service area, the MHA staff assigned will contact the 1st-ranked

Contractor to ascertain as to whether or not that Contractor is available to do the work within the reasonable

timeframe the Agency has established for that work. If the 1st-ranked Contractor is not available, the MHA

will proceed to the next-ranked Contractor, and so forth, until the MHA has located an available Contractor.

There may be instances when it is not reasonable to wait for the needed services to be completed, when

service is required from a Contractor immediately, meaning a Contractor is needed to drive to the site

quickly. In such cases the MHA reserves the right to (and probably will) suspend the required response

time and will seek a Contractor who within the previously described pool rotation who is immediately

available.

costs that he/she may incur in responding to this QSP.

location, as specified within this QSP or on the contract executed.

12.0 ASSIGNMENT OF PERSONNEL: MHA shall retain the right to demand and receive a change in personnel assigned by

the successful Bidder to provide services to the HA if the HA believes that such change is in the best interest of the

HA and the completion of the work or provision of the items.

13.0 E-VERIFY: U.S. Law requires companies to employ only individuals who may legally work in the United States –

Authorization Program throughout the contract period.
