Section 753:11-3-5 - Bid submission

(a)Bid locations. Bidders shall submit bids to the location the solicitation specifies.

(b)Electronic bids. Bids submitted in response to a formal or informal competitive solicitation pursuant to this Subchapter may be submitted electronically. Electronic submission of bids, when allowed, must be submitted in such manner that the time and date of submission are electronically linked to the bid and cannot be changed.

(c)Sealed bids. Bids submitted in response to competitive sealed solicitations pursuant to this Subchapter, the Trust will clearly mark the receipt date and time on the outside of all bid envelopes or containers. Late bids shall not be considered responsive and shall not be evaluated. Late bids will be returned unopened in a timely manner if the bidder requests the return of the unopened bid.

(d)Alternate Bids. Unless the solicitation prohibits, a bidder may submit alternate bids, but an alternate bid cannot materially deviate from the original solicitation specifications. Alternate bids must also be complete bids and shall be clearly marked to identify them as an alternate bid.

(e)All or Some. If permitted to bid on less than all of a contract pursuant to the solicitation, the bidder may indicate on the bid whether it is for all or some, specifying what portions or items the supplier is willing to fulfill.

(f)Delivery dates. If the solicitation does not specify a delivery date for goods or services, the bidder shall specify a delivery date in the bid.

(g)Clarification. The Trust may solicit clarification from a bidder regarding the bid, but such clarification shall not allow a bidder the opportunity to alter or supplement bid pricing.
