ABOUT ESCNJ

The ESCNJ’s mission is to cooperatively serve our members through a continuous effort to explore and solve present and future purchasing needs. Our goals include working to secure multi-member agency volume purchasing contracts with benefits that are measurable, cost-effective and continuously exceed our members’ expectations. The ESCNJ is committed to accomplish this mission lawfully and ethically, using leading edge technology and futuristic business practices.

The great benefit to the respondent is that one response may be awarded by the ESCNJ for multiple members located throughout the State. Respondents responding to this RFB will prepare one (1) original paper response and one (1) labeled computer/electronic Flash Drive copy. Respondents selected in response to this RFB have the potential to provide products and services to public educational institutions, public colleges or universities, community colleges, vocational or technical schools, municipal governments, and other governmental and quasi-governmental organizations serving current and future members of the ESCNJ Cooperative Pricing System.

The ESCNJ will publish notice of the RFB. Respondents will send responses to the ESCNJ receiving point for all Co-op Members. Responses will be evaluated by the ESCNJ, and after Board approval, bids will be awarded to the selected respondent(s).

Contracts awarded through cooperative pricing must meet the procurement laws of the State of New Jersey. When these laws are satisfied, an individual entity using these contracts is deemed in compliance with bidding regulations. As allowed by New Jersey statutes, they can issue purchase orders for any amount without the need to prepare their own RFP, or gather necessary quotations. This saves the entity time, allowing for economical and efficient purchasing.

State laws permit or encourage cooperative purchasing contracts in the belief that lower prices will be the result. A contract issued by a cooperative can be used by hundreds of separate political units, but if it has the same or higher prices than what a single agency can get through its own bid, a cooperatively bid contracts makes no sense.

ESCNJ requests that respondents only respond if they are able to provide prices lower than what they ordinarily offer on separate, public educational institution, public college or university, community college, vocational or technical school, municipal government, and other governmental and quasi-governmental organizational contracts.

“ESCNJ” may be used interchangeably with the Educational Services Commission of New Jersey, as may Co-op member as ESCNJ Cooperative Member.

11. BID PROPOSAL FORM(S)

All bids are to be written in by typewriter or ink (or with computer if applicable) in a legible manner on the official Bid Proposal Form(s). Any bid price showing any erasure or alteration should be initialed by the respondent in ink, at the right margin next to the altered entry. Failure to initial any erasure or alteration may be cause to disqualify that particular bid entry. If the disqualified entry is a required one, the entire bid may be subject to rejection, so please fill out all entries with care.

The Bid Proposal Form(s) must be duly signed by the authorized representative of the company in the appropriate space, at the end of the Bid Form(s). Failure to sign the Bid Proposal Form(s) may be cause to disqualify the entire bid. If the Bid Proposal Form(s) contains more than one sheet, then respondents are requested to record the date, signature, company name and address on each intervening sheet.

The ESCNJ will not consider any bid on which there is any alteration to, or departure from, the bid specifications. Respondents are not to make any changes on the Bid Proposal Form(s), or qualify their bid with conditions differing from those defined in the contract documents. If respondents do make changes on the Bid Proposal Form(s), except as noted above for initialed clerical mistakes, it may be cause to disqualify that particular bid as non-responsive N.J.S.A. 18A:18A-2(y). Manufacture Category and manufacturer date changes are allowed.

By submitting a proposal, the respondent covenants that he has carefully examined the contract documents, addenda, if any, and the site; and that from his investigation, he has satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the general and local conditions and all matters which may in any way affect the work or its performance, and that as a result of such examination, he fully understands the intent and purpose thereof, his obligations there-under, and that he will not make any claim for, or have any right to damages, because of the lack of any information.

APPENDIX A

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT OF 1990Equal Opportunity for Individuals with Disability

The contractor and the Educational Services Commission of New Jersey (hereafter “owner”) do hereby agree that the provisions of Title 11 of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (the “Act”) (42 U.S.C. S121 01 et seq.), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by public entities in all services, programs, and activities provided or made available by public entities, and the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant there unto, are made a part of this contract. In providing any aid, benefit, or service on behalf of the owner pursuant to this contract, the contractor agrees that the performance shall be in strict compliance with the Act. In the event that the contractor, its agents, servants, employees, or subcontractors violate or are alleged to have violated the Act during the performance of this contract, the contractor shall defend the owner in any action or administrative proceeding commenced pursuant to this Act. The contractor shall indemnify, protect, and save harmless the owner, its agents, servants, and employees from and against any and all suits, claims, losses, demands, or damages, of whatever kind or nature arising out of or claimed to arise out of the alleged violation. The contractor shall, at its own expense, appear, defend, and pay any and all charges for legal services and any and all costs and other expenses arising from such action or administrative proceeding or incurred in connection therewith. In any and all complaints brought pursuant to the owner’s grievance procedure, the contractor agrees to abide by any decision of the owner which is rendered pursuant to said grievance procedure. If any action or administrative proceeding results in an award of damages against the owner, or if the owner incurs any expense to cure a violation of the ADA which has been brought pursuant to its grievance procedure, the contractor shall satisfy and discharge the same at its own expense.

The owner shall, as soon as practicable after a claim has been made against it, give written notice thereof to the contractor along with full and complete particulars of the claim, if any action or administrative proceeding is brought against the owner or any of its agents, servants, and employees, the owner shall expeditiously forward or have forwarded to the contractor every demand, complaint, notice, summons, pleading, or other process received by the owner or its representatives.

It is expressly agreed and understood that any approval by the owner of the services provided by the contractor pursuant to this contract will not relieve the contractor of the obligation to comply with the Act and to defend, indemnify, protect, and save harmless the owner pursuant to this paragraph.

It is further agreed and understood that the owner assumes no obligation to indemnify or save harmless the contractor, its agents, servants, employees and subcontractors for any claim which may arise out of their performance of this Agreement. Furthermore, the contractor expressly understands and agrees that the provisions of this indemnification clause shall in no way limit the contractor’s obligations assumed in this Agreement, nor shall they be construed to relive the contractor from any liability, nor preclude the owner from taking any other actions available to it under any other provisions of the Agreement or otherwise at law.
