MWAA is maintained on SBSD's website (http://www.SBSD.virginia.gov ) under the DBE and
SWaM Directory of Certified Vendors. Contractors/consultants are encouraged to take all
necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that DBE firms have the maximum opportunity to
compete for and perform services on contract, including participation in any subsequent
supplement contracts. If the contractor/consultant intends to subcontract a portion of the services
on the project, the contractor/consultant is encouraged to seek out and consider DBEs as potential
Subcontractors/sub-consultants. The contractor/Sub-contractor is encouraged to contact DBEs to
solicit their interest, capability, and qualifications. Any agreement between a contractor/consultant
and a DBE whereby the DBE promises not to provide services to other contractors/consultants is
prohibited.
The DBE contract goal for this procurement is0%.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Use of Form: All bids must be submitted on and in accordance with this form. If more
space is required to furnish a description of the goods and/or services bid, or delivery
terms, the bidder may attach a letter hereto that will be made a part of the bid. In case of
conflict, the bid may be considered non-responsive. The City's published specifications
for this Invitation for Bid will supersede any additional writings submitted with the bid. Such
writings shall be clearly marked and noted as an exception.
2. Submittals: All bids shall be submitted sealed, plainly marked showing the bid number,
date and time. The entire solicitation document is to be returned when submitting a bid
unless otherwise directed by the bid document. Failure to return all pages may result in a
determination that the submittal is non-responsive.
3. Late Bids: Bids and amendments thereto, if received by the City's Purchasing Division
("Purchasing") after the date and time specified for bid opening, will not be considered. It
will be the responsibility of the bidder to see that their bid is received by Purchasing as
specified. There will be no exceptions. Date of postmark will not be considered.
Telephone, facsimile, electronic and verbal bids will not be accepted. Prices or changes
shown on the outside of an envelope will not be considered in determination of low bid.
4. City Hall Closure: If City Hall is closed for business at the time scheduled for the bid
opening, for whatever reasons, sealed bids will be accepted and opened on the next
business day of the City, at the original scheduled hour.
5. Competition Intended: It is the City's intent that the Invitation for Bid (IFB) permits
competition. It is the bidder's responsibility to advise the Contract Officer in writing if any
language requirement, specification, etc., or any combination thereof, inadvertently
restricts or limits the requirements stated in the IFB to a single source. Such notifications
must be received by the Contract Officer five (5) days prior to the date set for the bids to
close.
6. Contract Quantities: The quantities specified in the Invitation for Bid are estimates only
unless otherwise clearly noted, and are given for the information of bidders and for the
purpose of bid evaluation. They do not indicate the actual quantity that will be required,
since such volume will depend upon requirements that may develop during the contract
period. Quantities shown shall not be construed to represent any amount which the City
shall be obligated to purchase under the contract, or relieve the bidder of his obligation to
fill all orders placed by the City, except as clearly noted.
7. Delivery: The time of delivery must be stated in definite terms. If time of delivery for
different goods and/or services varies, the bidder shall so state.
8. Faith-based Organizations: The City of Suffolk does not discriminate against faith-based
organizations.
9. Bidder Qualifications: Only bids from established bidders for work similar in scope to
work herein will be considered; the City reserves the right to request specific reference
information prior to award. Bidder shall demonstrate that it has adequate and appropriate
manpower, tools and equipment to respond and perform in accordance with the provisions
