convicted vendor list.

C. Contents of Solicitation and Vendors’ Responsibilities: The Vendor shall be thoroughly familiar

with the requirements of this solicitation. Ignorance of these matters by the Vendor will not be

be presumed to be collusive. Furthermore, any prior understanding, agreement, or connection between

two (2) or more corporations, firms, or persons submitting a Proposal for the same materials, supplies,

services, or equipment will also be presumed to be collusive. Proposals found to be collusive will be

rejected. Vendors which have been found to have engaged in collusion may be considered non-

responsible and may be suspended or debarred. Any contract resulting from collusive bidding may be

terminated for default.

fide employee working solely for the Vendor to solicit or secure the Contract and that they have not paid
