1.10 SELECTION PROCESS

Because the University bases any decision to award a purchase order on the Proposals submitted, Proponents should include all requirements, terms or conditions they may have in their proposal, and should not assume that any opportunity will exist to add such matters after the Proposal is submitted.

Page 9: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL...Request for Proposal, or the submission of Proposal, unless and until the University has accepted one or more Proposals. 1.9 INQUIRIES AND CHANGES Any inquiries

9

clearly more highly qualified than the others under consideration, it may decide to award a purchase order directly to that Proponent.

The University reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to negotiate, clarify, and/or ask additional information with any Proponent as it sees fit, or with another Proponent or Proponents concurrently. In no event will the University be required to offer any modified terms to any other Proponent. The University shall incur no liability to any other Proponent as a result of such negotiations or modifications.

At the conclusion of the Request for Proposals process, all Proponents will be notified.

1.11.1 The Proponent’s capability to provide a high quality product as described

in Attachment A and the information contained in the documentation supplied by the Proponent in response to this Request for Proposal.

1.11.2 Any features or advantages which are unique to the Proponent’s Proposal

which the University has not listed in Attachment A.

changes the scope or extent of the project 1.12.3 The proposals, or any of the proposals, exceed the projected spending

approval. 1.13 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION

Mandatory Contractual Provisions (Mandatory Provisions) and Preferred Contractual Provisions (Preferred Provisions) that will govern any subsequent contract issue are outlined in this Request for Proposal. The Proponent’s Proposal is automatically deemed to include the Proponent’s agreement to the Mandatory Provisions and the Preferred Provisions unless the Proponent expressly and specifically provides otherwise in its Proposal. Mandatory Provisions are listed in Section 4.0. The Proponent may not modify any Mandatory Provisions in its Proposal. If the Proponent has any Mandatory Provision or wishes to incorporate or use any Proponent standard terms and conditions, the Proponent shall append such materials to its Proposal and indicate thereon such Mandatory Provisions. The Proponent’s Mandatory Provisions will also be considered as part of the selection process.

Preferred Provisions are listed in Section 5.0. Such provisions are desirable to the University but are open to negotiation between the University and the Proponent. The Proponent may reject or make changes to preferred provisions by explicitly stating so in its Proposal.

1.14 CONTRACT PROVISIONS BY REFERENCE

The University’s acceptance of the Proponent’s Proposal by issuance of a Purchase Order shall create a contract between the University and such Proponent containing all specifications, terms and conditions in the Proposal except as amended in the Purchase Order. Any exceptions taken by the Proponent which are not included in the Purchase order will not form part of the contract.

In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Request for Proposal and information submitted by a Proponent, the terms and conditions of this Request for Proposal and the Purchase Order will govern.

1.15 CONFIDENTIALITY

The Proponent acknowledges that the University is a public body subject to the

Page 11: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL...Request for Proposal, or the submission of Proposal, unless and until the University has accepted one or more Proposals. 1.9 INQUIRIES AND CHANGES Any inquiries

11

Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act). The Proponent shall review the Act and determine the categories of records which are exempted from disclosure under the Act. The Proponent shall clearly mark “Confidential” all information regarding the items and conditions, financial and/or technical aspects of the Proponent’s Proposal, which in the Proponent’s opinion are of a proprietary or confidential nature at the relevant item or page. If the University receives a request for information under the Act which includes information provided by the Proponent, the University will give the Proponent notice of such request and the Proponent will respond to such notice within 20 days or less. If the Proponent does not respond to the notice from the University, the University will proceed to process the request for information. The University shall use all reasonable efforts to hold all information marked “Confidential” by the Proponent in strict confidence but shall not be liable for any inadvertent disclosure. If the University’s response to a request under the Act is appealed to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner, the Proponent shall have the burden of proof per section 57 (3) of the Act. The Proponent shall be responsible for all costs related to its confidentiality requirements.

If the University declares and marks certain information about the University to be received by the Proponent as “Confidential”, the Proponent must not disclose such “Confidential” information to any third parties unless authorized to do so in writing by the University.

The Proponent and The University agree that the reciprocal obligations of confidentiality will survive the termination of any contract that might arise between the parties.
