The RFP responses are due by April 29, 2026, at 4:30 PM EST. The state will make no attempt to contact interested parties with updated information; it is the responsibility of each bidder to periodically check the provided webpages for any and all notifications, releases, and addendums associated with this solicitation.
Payment terms are net 30 days from the date the state receives an error-free invoice with all necessary and complete supporting documentation. Percentage discounts may be offered for prompt payments, but they must be in effect for a period of 30 days or more to be considered in making awards.
The manufacturer shall include with its proposal a written warranty for each product that it intends to furnish. Warranties must be based on commercial use and shall extend for a minimum term of one (1) year from the date a product is available for use by the purchaser; however, longer-term warranties are desirable and will be given favorable consideration, all else being equal.
Awards will be made under the provisions of 29 V. S. A. § 903. The state may award one or more contracts and reserves the right to make additional awards to other compliant bidders at any time if such award is deemed to be in the best interest of the state. All other considerations being equal, preference will be given to resident bidders of the state and/or to products raised or manufactured in the state, purchase of goods, products, or materials produced in the United States, and bidders who have practices that promote clean energy and address climate change.
To be awarded a contract by the State of Vermont, a bidder (except an individual doing business in his/her own name) must be registered with the Vermont Secretary of State's office and must obtain a contractor's business account number issued by the Vermont Department of Taxes.
The document mentions that failure of a bidder to respond to a request for additional information or clarification could result in rejection of that bidder's proposal. It also states that if a contractor fails to disclose facts pertaining to a conflict of interest or otherwise misrepresented relevant information, the state reserves the right to terminate a contract upon discovery.
The commissioner reserves the right to request from the bidder/contractor a representative sample of the product offered at any time prior to or after award of a contract. Unless otherwise instructed, samples shall be furnished within the time specified in the request. Untimely submission of a sample may constitute grounds for rejection of bid or cancellation of the contract.
