business is to provide professional design services and to complete the contract in accordance with
all of its terms and conditions and in compliance with all applicable laws. The scope of work is

Instructions to Offerors
Section I
M. REJECTION OF PROPOSALS
1. Offerors must comply with all of the terms of this RFP, and all applicable local, state, and federal
laws, codes and regulations. The District may reject any proposal that does not comply with all
of the material and substantial terms, conditions, and performance requirements of this RFP
and any proposal which contains information or material which cannot be verified or otherwise
confirmed for purposes of determining responsiveness to the solicitation.
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.
N. SELECTION FOR AWARD
1. Selection for award will be accomplished in accordance with Anchorage School Board Policy
Section 3311 and the terms and conditions of this solicitation. A recommendation for award,
based upon the evaluation criteria specified in this RFP, will be made to the Anchorage School
Board for approval, unless approval is not required under Board Policy Section 3311.
2. The District may award a contract 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 ten (10) 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 contract awarded as a result of this solicitation 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. The successful
offeror(s) will be required to execute a written contract in the form included as part of this RFP
and comply with its terms.
O. NEGOTIATIONS
After final evaluation, the District may negotiate with the offeror of the highest-ranking proposal.
Negotiations, if held, shall be within the scope of the RFP and limited to those items which would
not have an effect on the ranking of proposals. The District reserves the right to change terms and
conditions during contract negotiations. If the highest-ranked offeror fails to provide necessary
information for negotiations in a timely manner or fails to negotiate in good faith, or if the offeror

Instructions to Offerors
Section I
and the District, after a good faith effort, cannot come to terms, the District may terminate
negotiations and commence negotiations with the offeror of the next highest-ranking proposal.
P. REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBMISSION OF COST/PRICING DATA
This project requires the submission of certified cost/pricing data. An audit, conducted by the

ascertain if systems are adequate for School District review; and to investigate the accuracy of

and all the direct costs included in the scope of work. The information shall include the estimated
hours to perform each task and include the labor category necessary to complete the task.

if the offeror has been audited within the last 2 years by a government agency, or provided by
an auditing firm, that has approved a fully loaded labor rate for all categories of labor included
in the cost proposal, ASD will review such data for consideration.
4. If the offeror's Indirect Costs have not been previously audited by a government agency, ASD
may, in its sole discretion, require an on-site audit of the offeror's financial records for the
purposes of approving a project Indirect Cost Rate to apply to any resulting contract.
5. Provide a proposed fee or profit margin to apply to the project along with an explanation as to
the appropriateness of the fee/profit as it relates to the project risks and deliverables.
Q. RESPONSIBLE OFFERORS
1. A contract will be awarded 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 pre-award 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.

unnecessary delay or needless increase in the cost of the procurement or of the
litigation.
b. Sanctions for Violation
i. If a request for review, protest, pleading, motion, or other document is filed with the
Purchasing Senior Director is signed in violation of Board Policy AR3311.1(c).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,

to the Purchasing Officer, may review the proposal scoring summary after issuance of the
notice of intent to award has been issued, except to the extent permissibly restricted by the
offeror.
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
