Notwithstanding any other provision of this solicitation, the City reserves the right to: (1) waive any immaterial defect or informality; or (2) reject any or all offers or portions thereof; or (3) reissue a solicitation.
A response to a solicitation is an offer to contract with the City based upon the terms, conditions, and specifications contained in the City’s solicitation. Offers do not become contracts until they are executed by the Chief Procurement Officer or Department Director. A contract has its inception in the award, eliminating a formal signing of a separate contract. For that reason, all of the terms, conditions and specifications of the procurement contract are contained in the solicitation, and in any addendum or contract amendment.
2.17. Solicitation Transparency Policy
Commencing on the date and time a solicitation is published, potential or actual Offerors or respondents (including their representatives) shall only discuss matters associated with the solicitation with the Mayor, any members of City Council, the City Manager, any Deputy City Manager, or any department director directly associated with the solicitation (including in each case their assigned staff, except for the designated Procurement Officer) at a public meeting, posted under Arizona Statutes, until the resulting contract(s) are awarded to all offers or responses are rejected and the solicitation is cancelled without any announcement by the Procurement Officer of the City’s intent to reissue the same or similar solicitation.
As long as the solicitation is not discussed, Offerors may continue to conduct business with the City and discuss business that is unrelated to the solicitation with the City staff. Offerors may not discuss the solicitation with any City employees or evaluation panel members.
Offerors may discuss their proposal or the solicitation with the Mayor or one or more members of the Phoenix City Council, provided such meetings are scheduled through the Procurement Officer, and are posted as open meetings with the City Clerk at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled meetings. The City Clerk will be responsible for posting the meetings. The posted notice shall identify the participants and the subject matter, as well as invite the public to participate.
With respect to the selection of the successful Offerors, the City Manager and/or City Manager's Office will continue the past practice of exerting no undue influence on the process. In all solicitations of bids and proposals, any direction on the selection from the City Manager and/or City Manager's Office and Department Head (or representative) to the proposal review panel or selecting authority must be provided in writing to all prospective Offerors.
This policy is intended to create a level playing field for all Offerors, assure that contracts are awarded in public, and protect the integrity of the selection process. OFFERORS THAT VIOLATE THIS POLICY SHALL BE DISQUALIFIED. After official Notice is received by the City for disqualification, the Offeror may follow the Protest process, unless the Solicitation is cancelled without notice of intent to re-issue.
“To discuss” means any contact by the Offeror, regardless of whether the City responds to the contact. Offerors that violate this policy will be disqualified until the resulting contract(s) are awarded, or all offers or responses are rejected and the solicitation is cancelled without any announcement by the Procurement Officer of the City’s intent to reissue the same or a similar solicitation. The City interprets the policy as continuing through a cancellation of a solicitation until Council award of the contract, as long as the City cancels with a statement that the City will rebid the solicitation.
2.18. Protest Process
Offeror may protest the contents of a solicitation no later than seven days before the solicitation deadline when the protest is based on an apparent alleged mistake, impropriety or defect in the solicitation. Protests filed regarding the solicitation may be addressed by an amendment to the solicitation or denied by the City. If denied, the opening and award will proceed unless the City determines that it is in the City’s best interests to set new deadlines, amend the solicitation, cancel or re-bid.
Therefore, unless otherwise notified by a formal amendment, the Protester must adhere to all solicitation dates and deadlines, including timely filing of an offer, regardless of filing a protest.
Offeror may protest an adverse determination issued by the City regarding responsibility and responsiveness, within seven days of the date the Offeror was notified of the adverse determination.
Offeror may protest an award recommendation if the Offeror can establish that it had a substantial chance of being awarded the contract and will be harmed by the recommended award. The City will post recommendations on the City’s Procurement Portal to award the contract(s) to an Offeror(s). Offeror must submit award protests within seven days after the posting of the award recommendation, with exceptions only for good cause shown, within the City’s full and final discretion.
All protests will be in writing, filed with the Procurement Officer identified in the solicitation and include the following:
Identification of the solicitation number;
The name, address and telephone number of the protester;
A detailed statement describing the legal and factual grounds for the protest, including copies of relevant documents;
The form of relief requested; and

The City will not request City Council authorization to award the contract until the protest process is complete. All protests and appeals must be submitted in accordance with the City’s Procurement Code, (Phoenix City Code, Ch. 43) and any protests or appeals not submitted within the time requirements will not be considered. Protests must be filed with the Procurement Officer.
2.19. Public Record
All Offers submitted in response to this solicitation will become the property of the City and become a matter of public record available for review pursuant to Arizona State law. If an Offeror believes that a specific section of its Offer response is confidential, the Offeror will isolate the pages marked confidential in a specific and clearly labeled section of its Offer response. An Offeror may request specific information contained within its Offer is treated by the Procurement Officer as confidential provided the Offeror clearly labels the information “confidential.” To the extent necessary for the evaluation process, information marked as “confidential” will not be treated as confidential. Once the procurement file becomes available for public inspection, the Procurement Officer will not make any information identified by the Offerors as “confidential” available to the public unless necessary to support the evaluation process or if specifically requested in accordance with applicable public records law. When a public records request for such information is received, the Procurement Officer will notify the Offeror in writing of any request to view any portion of its Offer marked “confidential.” The Offeror will have the time set forth in the notice to obtain a court order enjoining such disclosure. If the Offeror does not provide the Procurement Officer with a court order enjoining release of the information during the designated time, the Procurement Officer will make the information requested available for inspection.
2.20. Right to Disqualify
The City reserves the right to disqualify any Offeror who fails to provide information or data requested or who provides materially inaccurate or misleading information or data. The City further reserves the right to disqualify any Offeror on the basis of any real or apparent conflict of interest that is disclosed by the Offer submitted or any other data or information available to the City. This disqualification is at the sole discretion of the City. By submission of a solicitation response, the Offeror waives any right to object now or at any future time, before any agency or body including, but not limited to, the City Council of the City or any court as to the exercise by the City of such right to disqualify or as to any disqualification by reason of real or apparent conflict of interest determined by the City.

The City reserves the right to award multiple contracts.
2.22. Determining Responsiveness and Responsibility
Offers will be reviewed for documentation of any required minimum qualifications, and completeness and compliance with the solicitation requirements. The City reserves sole discretion to determine responsiveness and responsibility.
Responsiveness: Nonresponsive Offers will not be considered in the evaluation process. The solicitation states criteria that determine responsiveness, and the solicitation includes terms and conditions that if included or excluded from Offers will render an Offer nonresponsive.
Responsibility: To obtain true economy, the City must conduct solicitations to minimize the possibility of a subsequent default by the Offeror, late deliveries, or other unsatisfactory performance that may result in additional administrative costs. It is important that the Offeror be a responsible Offeror. Responsibility includes the Offeror’s integrity, skill, capacity, experience, and facilities for conducting the work to be performed.
2.23. Equal Low Offer
Contract award will be made by putting the names of the tied vendors in a cup for a blind drawing limited to those bidders with tied offers.

If such suspension causes additional expense to Contractor in performance, and not due to fault or negligence of Contractor, the payment will be adjusted on the basis of actual costs resulting directly from the suspension, and the period for performance of the Services will be extended by mutual agreement. Any claim by Contractor for a price adjustment must be supported by appropriate documentation asserted promptly after Contractor has been notified to suspend performance.

LEVEL OF CARE AND SKILL: Services provided by Contractor will be performed in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of Contractor’s profession currently practicing in the same industry under similar conditions.

Consequently, the Contractor understands that disclosure of some or all of the items subject to this Agreement may be required by law.
In the event City receives a request for disclosure that is reasonably calculated to incorporate information that might be considered confidential by Contractor, the City agrees to provide the Contractor with notice of that request, which shall be deemed given when deposited by the City with the USPS for regular delivery to the address of the Contractor specified in their proposal. Within ten days of City notice by the City, the Contractor will inform the City in writing of any objection by the Contractor to the disclosure of the requested information. Failure by the Contractor to object timely shall be deemed to waive any objection and any remedy against the City for disclosure.
In the event the Contractor objects to disclosure within the time specified, the Contractor agrees to handle all aspects related to request, including properly communicating with the requestor and timely responding with information the disclosure of which the Contractor does not object thereto. Furthermore, the Contractor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the City from any claims, actions, lawsuits, or any other controversy or remedy, in whatever form, that arises from the failure to comply with the request for information and the laws pertaining to public records, including defending the City in any legal action and payment of any penalties or judgments. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
5.19. Industry Standards
It is intended that the manufacturer in the selection of components will use material and design practices that are the best available in the industry for the type of operating conditions to which the item will be subjected. Component parts shall be selected to give maximum performance, service life and safety and not merely meet the minimum requirements of this specification. All parts, equipment and accessories shall conform in strength, quality of material and workmanship to recognized industry standards.
The term “heavy duty” if used in these specifications shall mean that the item to which the term is applied shall exceed the usual quantity, quality, or capacity supplied with standard production items and it shall be able to withstand unusual straining, exposure, temperature, wear and use.
The City reserves the right to waive minor variations if, in the opinion of the City’s authorized Department representative, the basic unit meets the general intent of these specifications.
The product offered shall not include a major component that is of a prototype nature or has not been in production for a sufficient length of time to demonstrate reliability.
If the specifications stated herein for component items do not comply with legal requirements, the Contractor shall so notify the City prior to the offer opening due date.

A formal announcement from the manufacturer that the product or model has been discontinued.
Documentation from the manufacturer that names the replacement product or model.
Documentation that provides clear and convincing evidence that the replacement meets or exceeds all specifications required by the original solicitation.
Documentation that provides clear and convincing evidence that the replacement will be compatible with all functions or uses of the discontinued product or model.
Documentation from the manufacturer confirming that the price for the replacement item will be the same as the discontinued item.
The Chief Procurement Officer will be the sole judge in determining the allowable substitute, new product or model change for discontinued item.
5.24. Pre-Delivery Inspection
Onsite inspection of the first unit may be required before delivery. The City reserves the right to inspect the first unit at the factory. This pre-delivery inspection does not constitute final acceptance of the product.
5.25. Repair and Replacement Parts Guarantee
Following the expiration of any express or implied warranty applicable to those goods, furnished to the City under this contract, Contractor agrees to supply the City (as well as its agents, representatives, Contractors, and hires) with in-stock repair and replacement parts carrying a full manufacturer’s warranty at a cost that shall not exceed the cost it would charge if it were contracted to service or install those repair and replacement parts.
5.26. Replacement Parts Availability
A response to this solicitation shall constitute a guarantee by the Contractor that a stock of replacement parts for the specified equipment is locally available. Captive parts must be available within 48 hours following the placement of an order. Contractor shall provide parts delivery, to include deliveries on Saturday. If special handling and/or freight are required, the Contractor will assume all charges.
5.27. Substitution of Specified Items
Whenever in the specifications any item or process is requested or identified by manufacturer name, proprietary name, or patent such specifications shall be used to facilitate descriptions of the item or process and shall be followed by the words “or equal”. The Contractor may offer any item or process that is equal in every respect. However, if the item or process delivered is not, in the opinion of the City of Phoenix, equal in every respect to the specifications, then the Contractor must furnish the item or material that is equal, in the opinion of the City.
5.28. Confidentiality
“Confidential Information” means all non-public, sensitive, or proprietary information disclosed or made available by City to Contractor or its affiliates, employees, contractors, partners, or agents (collectively “Recipient”), whether disclosed before or after the Effective Date, whether disclosed orally, in writing, or via permitted electronic access, and whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as confidential. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: user contents, electronic data, meta data, employment data, network configurations, information security practices, strategic plans, financial accounts, protected personal data, protected health information, protected criminal justice information, and any other information that by the nature and circumstance of the disclosure should be deemed confidential. Confidential Information does not include this document or information that: (a) is now or subsequently becomes generally available to the public through no wrongful act or omission of Recipient; (b) Recipient can demonstrate by its written records to lawfully have had in its possession prior to receiving such information from the City; (c) Recipient can demonstrate by its written records to have been independently developed by Recipient without direct or indirect use of any Confidential Information; (d) Recipient lawfully obtains from a third party who has the right to transfer or disclose it; or (e) the City has approved in writing for disclosure.
Recipient shall: (a) protect and safeguard Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as Recipient would protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than a commercially reasonable degree of care, such as ensuring data is encrypted in transit and at rest and maintaining appropriate technical and organizational measures in performing the services under the Agreement; (b) not use Confidential Information, or permit it to be accessed or used, for any purpose other than in accordance with the Agreement; (c) not use Confidential Information, or permit it to be accessed or used, in any manner that would constitute a violation of law, including without limitation export control and data privacy laws; and (d) not disclose Confidential Information except to the minimum number of recipients who have a need to know and who have been informed of and agree to abide by confidentiality obligations that are no less restrictive than the terms of this Agreement. If Recipient is required by law or court order to disclose any Confidential Information, Recipient will first give written notice to the City and provide the City with a meaningful opportunity to seek a protective order or limit disclosure.
Upon the City’s written request or expiration of this Agreement, whichever is earlier, Recipient shall, at no additional costs to the City, promptly return or destroy all Confidential Information belonging to the City that Recipient has in its possession or control. After return or destruction of the Confidential Information, Recipient shall certify in writing as to its compliance with this paragraph.
If applicable, Contractor agrees to comply with all City information technology policies and security standards, as may be updated from time to time, when accessing City networks and computerized systems whether onsite or remotely.
A violation of this Section shall be deemed to cause irreparable harm that justifies injunctive relief in court. A violation of this Section may at the City’s discretion result in immediate termination of the Agreement without notice. The obligations of Contractor under this Section shall survive the termination of the Agreement.

not input City Data into an artificial intelligence tool or prompt, unless expressly permitted by the City;
implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect City Data against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, damage, theft, alteration or disclosure, including at a minimum, and as applicable, those measures specified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) SP800-53; NIST Privacy Framework; NIST AI Risk Management Framework; Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 18-552 (Notification of security system breaches); A.R.S. § 44-7601 (Discarding and disposing of records containing personal identifying information); Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act; Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards; and good industry practice; (When considering what measures are appropriate and in line with good industry practice, Contractor shall keep abreast of current regulatory trends in data security and the state of technological development to ensure a level of security appropriate to the nature of the data to be protected and the harm that might result from such unauthorized or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction, damage, theft, alteration or disclosure. At minimum, Contractor will timely remediate any vulnerabilities found within its network that are rated medium or more critical by the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS); however, Contractor must remediate vulnerabilities that are rated critical within 14 days and vulnerabilities that are rated high within 30 days. If requested by the City, Contractor shall promptly provide a written description of the technical and organizational methods it employs for processing City Data.)

If Contractor becomes aware of a security incident as defined by A.R.S. § 18-551 affecting City Data in the custody or control of Contractor or its sub-processor (each an “Incident”), Contractor shall notify the City at SOC@phoenix.gov without undue delay within 48 hours; and:
provide the City with a detailed description of the Incident, the type of data that was the subject of the Incident, and the identity of each affected person as soon as such information can be collected or otherwise becomes available;
act immediately, at Contractor’s own expense, to investigate the Incident and to identify, prevent, and mitigate the effects of the Incident and to carry out any recovery or other action necessary to remedy the Incident;
cooperate with the City in investigating the occurrence, including making available all relevant records, logs, files, data reporting, and other materials required to comply with applicable laws or as otherwise required by the City; and
not directly contact any individuals who may be impacted by the Incident or release or publish any filing, communication, notice, press release, or report concerning the Incident without the City’s prior written approval (except where required to do so by applicable laws).

Without limiting in any way the Contractor obligations set forth herein, if, as a result of any claim of infringement with respect to the Technology Assets, the City is enjoined from using the Technology Assets, or if Contractor reasonably believes that the Technology Assets are likely to become the subject of a claim of infringement, Contractor may, at Contractor’s option and expense, (1) procure the right for the City to continue to use the Technology Assets, or (2) replace or modify the Technology Assets so as to make them non-infringing and of equal or superior functionality and capability for the purpose(s) for which the Technology Assets were provided.
The Contractor’s obligation to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City pursuant to this subsection shall be reduced to the extent the applicable infringement is caused or alleged to be caused by the alteration or modification of the Technology Assets by the City (including its employees and contractors other than the Contractor and its subcontractors) other than in connection with the ordinary or expected use of the Technology Assets.
