The goal of this solicitation is to secure a source to purchase a Four-Wheel Drive Utility Vehicle for

the Public Works Department of the City of Tulsa.

2. Term of Contract

The City intends to award a one-year annual contract. The City may offer the Seller the opportunity

for additional one-year terms. The City also reserves the right to make multiple or partial awards. To

do business with the City, You must agree to the terms and conditions of the City’s standard

Authorized Agent

Several parts of the Bid (Affidavits, Purchase Agreement) must be signed by an “Authorized

Agent.” An Authorized Agent means an agent who is legally authorized to bind the Seller under the

law of the state in which the Seller is legally organized. For instance, under Oklahoma law, the

Authorized Agent for each of the following types of entities is as stated below:

o Corporations – the president, board chair or board vice chair (or the vice president if the corporation

was formed in Oklahoma) can sign; others can sign if they have and provide the City with (i) a corporate

resolution giving them authority to bind the Seller, and (ii) a recent certificate of secretary indicating

the authority is still valid and was in full force and effect on the date of the signature. (See IFB Section

VI for sample of a Certificate of Secretary)

o General Partnerships – any partner can sign to bind all partners.

o Limited Partnerships – the general partner must sign.

o Individuals – no additional authorization is required, but signatures must be witnessed and notarized.

o Sole Proprietorship – the owner can sign. Any other person can sign if s/he provides a recent Power

of Attorney, signed by the owner, authorizing him/her to bind the sole proprietorship.

o Limited Liability Company (LLC) – any manager of the LLC elected by the members of the LLC, or

any member signing as manager of the LLC. All other signers will need a Consent of Members signed

by all the Members of the LLC authorizing their signature on or up to 30 days before the date of their

signature. (See Section VI for sample of a Consent of Members)

Entities organized in states other than Oklahoma must follow the law of the state in which they are

organized.

item being bid and whether it meets the Specifications stated herein relies on the written information

considered as non-responsive and being rejected.

If bidding an equivalent, You must include descriptive manufacturer’s literature verifying the

information You provided in the Bidder’s Response column with Your submission. Failure to

provide such literature shall result in Your Bid being considered as non-responsive and being

rejected. Any determination as to whether an item is equivalent that meets the Specifications shall

be made at the sole discretion of the City.

Seller shall ensure that each vehicle and related parts are warranted by the manufacturer to be of

good material and workmanship and that manufacturer promptly replace any part or parts which by

reason of defective materials or workmanship shall fail under normal use, free of negligence or

accident, for a minimum of one (1) year from the date of delivery, unless otherwise stated. In addition,

if such failures take place outside the dealer’s service area, which shall be defined as Tulsa city
