It is the responsibility of the bidder to ensure that their bid reaches the appropriate office prior to the date
and time of closing.
All costs of proposal preparation and presentation shall be borne by each bidder. The County is not liable
for any cost incurred by the bidder prior to issuance of a contract.
Rockingham County reserves the right to reject, on arrival at destination or at delivery, any delivery which
does not conform with the specifications of this ITB. Equipment offered below the listed specifications
will be considered unacceptable.
5.0 EVALUATION AND CONTRACT AWARD
Bids will be opened at the time and place stated in the Invitation to Bid or as modified by subsequent
Addenda, and their contents publicly announced. The Purchasing Agent shall decide when the specified
time for bid opening has arrived. No responsibility will be attached to any officer or agent for the
premature opening of a bid not properly addressed and identified. The provisions of §2.2-4342 of the Code
of Virginia shall be applicable to the inspections of bids received.
The Contract, if awarded, will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, if any,
provided his bid is reasonable and it is in the best interest of the County to accept it and subject to the
County’s right to reject any and all bids and to waive informality in the bids and in the bidding.
Determination of the lowest responsible bidder, if any, will be based on the total bid amount entered on
the Bid Form. Where the sum of the values entered in the multiple parts do not agree with the total bid
amount, the total bid amount entered on the Bid Form, including any properly submitted bid
modifications, shall take precedence. In the event that the total bid from the lowest responsible bidder
exceeds available funds, the County may negotiate the total bid amount with the apparent low bidder to
obtain a contract price within available funds, pursuant to §2.2-4318 of the Code of Virginia.
In the case of a tie bid, the County may give preference to goods, services, and construction produced in
the County or provided by persons, firms or corporations having principal places of business in the County.
If such choice is not available, preference shall then be given to goods and services produced in the
Commonwealth pursuant to Section 2.2-4324 of the Code of Virginia. If no County or Commonwealth
choice is available, the tie shall be decided by lot.
The Notice of Award will be posted on the County website after the Board awards the contract. Any bidder
who desires to protest the award or decision to award a contract shall submit the protest in writing to the
Rockingham County Purchasing Agent no later than ten days after the award date of the Board of
Supervisors or date of the Notice of Award, whichever comes first (§ 2.2-4360).
The County reserves the right to reject any and all bids in whole or in part, to waive any informality, and
to delete items prior to making an award. The County at its discretion may enter into an agreement with
multiple bidders.
