4. Proposals are to remain valid and open for acceptance by HOAM for the Offer Validity Period.

5. Each Vendor should satisfy itself as to the interpretation of the RFP. If there is any perceived ambiguity or uncertainty in the RFP document/s Vendors should seek clarification before the Deadline for Questions.

6. All requests for clarification must be made through the online system to HOAM’s Point of Contact. HOAM will endeavour to respond to requests in a timely manner, but not later than the deadline for HOAM to answer Vendors’ questions, if applicable.

7. If HOAM considers a request to be of sufficient importance to all Vendors it may provide details of the question and answer to other Vendors. In doing so HOAM may summarise the Vendor’s question and will not disclose the Vendor’s identity. The question and answer may be posted (updated on the system) and/or emailed to participating Vendors.

8. In submitting a request for clarification a Vendor is to indicate, in its request, any information that is commercially sensitive. HOAM will not publish such commercially sensitive information. However, HOAM may modify a request to eliminate such commercially sensitive information, and publish this and the answer where HOAM considers it of general significance to all Vendors.

9. Each Vendor is responsible for ensuring that its Proposal is received by HOAM on or before the Deadline for Proposals.

10. HOAM intends to rely on the Vendor’s Proposal and all information provided by the Vendor (e.g. correspondence and negotiations). In submitting a Proposal and communicating with HOAM each Vendor should check that all information it provides to HOAM is:

a. true, accurate and complete, and not misleading in any material respect

b. does not contain Intellectual Property that will breach a third party’s rights.

11. Where HOAM requires the Proposal to be delivered in hard and soft copies, the Vendor is responsible for ensuring that both the hard and soft copies are identical.

19. HOAM will base its initial evaluation on the Proposals submitted in response to the RFP. HOAM may adjust its evaluation of a Proposal following consideration of any clarification or additional information.

20. In deciding which Vendor/s to shortlist HOAM will take into account the results of the evaluations of each Proposal and the following additional information:

a. each Vendor’s understanding of the Requirements, capability to fully deliver the Requirements and willingness to meet the terms and conditions of the Proposed Contract

b. except where the price is the only criterion, the best value-for-money over the whole of-life of the goods or services.

21. In deciding which Vendor/s, to shortlist HOAM may take into account any of the following additional information:

a. the results from reference checks, site visits, product testing and any other due diligence

c. any matter that materially impacts on HOAM’s trust and confidence in the Vendor

d. any other relevant information that HOAM may have in its possession.

22. HOAM will advise Vendors if they have been shortlisted or not. Being shortlisted does not constitute acceptance by HOAM of the Vendor’s Proposal, or imply or create any obligation on HOAM to enter into negotiations with, or award a Contract for delivery of the Requirements to any shortlisted Vendor/s. At this stage in the RFP process HOAM will not make public the names of the shortlisted Vendors.

23. HOAM may invite a Vendor to enter into negotiations with a view to contract. Where the outcome is unsatisfactory HOAM may discontinue negotiations with a Vendor and may then initiate negotiations with another Vendor.

2. Despite any other provision in the RFP HOAM may:

i. amend the Proposed Contract at any time, including during negotiations with a shortlisted Vendor

j. waive irregularities or requirements in or during the RFP process where it considers it appropriate and reasonable to do so.
