will be made only by written notice or addendum issued by the District.
If an offeror fails to notify the District of a discrepancy, defect, ambiguity or other error in the RFP,
the offeror's proposal shall be submitted at the offeror's own risk and if a contract is awarded as a
result of such proposal, the offeror shall not be entitled to additional compensation or other
consideration by reason of the discrepancy, defect, ambiguity or other error, or its later correction
or clarification. Protests based on any error or omission, or on the content of the solicitation, will
be disallowed if the fault has not been brought to the attention of the District, in writing, at least five
(5)days prior to the date set for submission of proposals. If such date falls on a weekend or holiday,
the deadline shall be the last business day before the weekend or holiday.
G. ADDENDA
Addenda may be issued when changes, clarifications, or amendments to this RFP are deemed
necessary by the District for any reason. If an addendum is issued, the District will make
reasonable efforts to ensure that each prospective offeror receives the addendum in a timely
fashion. However, the risk of non-receipt of any addendum lies solely with prospective offerors.
Offerors should contact the District at the addresses set forth in Section E, above, to ascertain if
any addenda have been issued. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of each addendum issued in
the space provided on the appropriate addendum form and submit such signed addendum with the

determination of the highest ranked proposal and/or award of contract and/or rejection of proposals,
except as follows: in the event that a contract is awarded to one offeror, and it is determined after
award of the contract that it should have been awarded to some other offeror, the only financial
liability of the District, if any, to the aggrieved offeror shall be actual costs reasonably incurred by
that offeror in the preparation and submittal of its proposal. No other obligation of any sort is
created nor may liability, financial or otherwise, be asserted against the District, its Board, Board
members, employees, agents or insurers to offer to award or award a contract. By submitting a
proposal, each offeror agrees to be bound in this respect.
N. REJECTION OF PROPOSALS

Instructions to Offerors
Section I
2. The District reserves the right to waive informalities and minor irregularities, and/or reject any
and all proposals, and to not award the proposed contract, if in its best interest. "Informalities
and minor irregularities" means matters of form rather than substance which are evident from
the submittal or are insignificant matters that have a negligible effect on price, quantity, quality,
delivery, or contractual conditions and that can be waived or corrected without prejudice to
other offerors. These include items that:
Do not affect responsiveness;
Are merely a matter of form or format;
Do not change the relative standing or otherwise prejudice other offers;
Do not change the meaning or scope of the RFP;
Are trivial, negligible, or immaterial in nature;
Do not reflect a material change in the work, or;
Do not constitute a substantial reservation against a requirement or provision of the
RFP.
O. SELECTION AS DISTRICT STANDARD
1. Selection as a District Standard will be accomplished in accordance with BP 3311, AR
3311.1(b), and the terms and conditions of this solicitation. A recommendation as a District
Standard, based upon the evaluation criteria specified in this RFP, will be made to the
Anchorage School Board for approval.
2. The District may select and approve multiple District Standards on the basis of initial proposals
received, without discussions. Therefore, each proposal should contain the offeror's best efforts
from a technical standpoint.
3. For those awards requiring Board approval, the District's Purchasing Department will make
public in the Purchasing Department each notice of Intent to Award seven (7) calendar days
prior to the scheduled date for award by the Board. Offerors may, upon request to the
Purchasing Department, review the proposal scoring summary prior to the scheduled Board
award date.
4. Any subsequent contract awarded as a result of this solicitation establishing one or more
District Standards will incorporate the contents of this RFP and the successful offeror(s)
proposal, subject to the reservations set forth herein for provisions of a proposal that do not
comply with material and substantial terms, conditions, and requirements of this RFP or that
impermissibly restrict the rights of the District. Any contract awarded as a result of this
solicitation establishing a District Standard as part of this RFP will comply with its terms.
P. NEGOTIATIONS FOR CLARIFICATION
After final evaluation, the District may negotiate with offerors to clarify information within their
proposals. Negotiations, if held, shall be within the scope of the RFP. The District reserves the
right to change terms and conditions during negotiations.
Q. RESPONSIBLE OFFERORS
1. A recommendation for approval as a District Standard will be extended only to prospective
offerors who are determined to be responsible.
2. In order to determine responsibility of a prospective offeror, the District may require offerors to
supply additional information or documentation and may perform on-site surveys. Failure of an
offeror to promptly cooperate or supply information in connection with a District inquiry with
respect to responsibility may result in a determination of non-responsibility with respect to the
offeror.

Instructions to Offerors
Section I
4. Frivolous Protests
a. Signature on Protest Constitutes Certificate.
1. The signature of an attorney or party on a request for review, protest, motion, or other
document constitutes a certificate by the signer that the signer has read the document,
to the best of his/her knowledge, information, and belief formed after reasonable
inquiry it is well grounded in fact and is warranted by existing law or a good faith
argument for the extension, modification, or reversal of existing law, and that it is not
interposed for an improper purpose, such as to harass, limit competition, or to cause
unnecessary delay or needless increase in the cost of the procurement or of the
litigation.
b. Sanctions for Violation
1. If a request for review, protest, pleading, motion, or other document is filed with the
Purchasing Director is signed in violation of School Board Policy 725.6.1.4.1, the
School Board may impose upon the person who signed it, a represented party, or both,
an appropriate sanction, that may include an order to pay to the other party or parties
the amount of the reasonable expenses incurred because of the filing of the protest,

T. PUBLIC RECORDS/CONFIDENTIALITY
1. This RFP and the resulting proposals received, together with copies of all documents pertaining

the record which will be open to public inspection after notice of intent to award is issued,

2. Offerors are advised to consult School Board Policy Section 1340 and the Alaska Public
Records Act, A.S. 40.25.100-40.25.295 to verify if any of their proposal information may qualify
for exemption from public disclosure. Exemptions to public disclosure requirements are
narrowly construed. As such, the District cannot exempt materials that are not of a truly
proprietary nature under applicable law and policy and cannot be held liable for the disclosure
of such information, even if marked for restriction by an offeror.
3. If a proposal contains any information that an offeror reasonably believes is proprietary or
confidential, and is subject to protection under applicable law, each such page of the proposal
must be marked "Confidential" by the offeror, and the offeror must explain the basis for its
determination that the information is not subject to disclosure under applicable public records
laws. Cost or price information may not be restricted and will be open to public inspection.
Marking an entire proposal "confidential" is not acceptable and may result in disclosure of the
entire proposal.
4. By submitting a proposal, the offeror agrees to release the District from any liability resulting
from the District's disclosure of information not clearly marked "Confidential." The offeror also
agrees to defend any action seeking release of information marked "Confidential" and to
indemnify and hold the District, its Board, employees and agents, harmless from any
judgments, damages and costs awarded against the District, its Board, employees or agents,
in favor of a party requesting information submitted by an offeror. Additionally, the offeror
understands and agrees that if a request is made under applicable public records laws, the
District will notify the offeror of such request but under no circumstance shall the District be
required to commence or defend any action to prevent the disclosure of any information
submitted by an offeror, including information the offeror believes to be confidential or
proprietary.
