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

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

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

2. Specifications
The Bid must meet or exceed the following Specifications.
In the Table below, the Bidder shall respond to each minimum requirement set forth in the
Specifications column by writing its response in the space provided under Section 2: Bidder’s
Response column. Whenever asked to “describe”, the description may include details such as size,
capacities, dimensions, materials used in construction, etc. A full and complete description is
required to reasonably evaluate the Bid, so all pertinent information is required. When referring to
attached literature as a means of not fully describing items, misinterpretations by the evaluator of the

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

that correspond with the minimum Specifications shown. You may not answer in the space provided
as to whether You meet the Specifications by responding with terms as “yes”, “meets”, “same as”,

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 scissor lift 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
limits, the Seller will be responsible for reimbursing the nearest manufacturer’s authorized dealer in
the city of Tulsa for services rendered under this warranty.
The Seller shall respond within 72 hours of notification by the City of Tulsa, on when, where, and
how a warranty issue will be resolved. In the event there is no response within 72 hours, or if the
