3.25.130 Pre-qualification of bidders, proponents, and suppliers.
Bidders, proponents, and/or suppliers may be pre-qualified for particular types of supplies, services, and construction. Solicitation mailing lists of potential contractors shall include, but not be limited to, pre-qualified suppliers.
A. Standard of Responsibility. Factors to be considered in determining whether the standard of responsibility has been met by a bidder, supplier or proponent include:
1. Availability of the appropriate financial, material, equipment, facility, and personnel resources and expertise, or the ability to obtain them, necessary to indicate the capability of the bidder, proponent, or supplier to meet all contractual requirements;
2. A satisfactory record of performance, including but not limited to the record of performance for the city or other governmental agencies, and debarment by any such agency;
3. A satisfactory record of integrity;
4. Legal qualifications to contract with the city;
5. Whether all necessary information has been supplied in connection with the inquiry concerning responsibility; and
6. Those considerations in respect to low responsible bidders.
B. Information Pertaining to Responsibility. The proponent, bidder, or supplier shall supply information requested by the city concerning the responsibility of such bidder, proponent, or supplier. If such information is not supplied, the city shall base the determination of responsibility upon any available information or may find the proponent, bidder, or supplier nonresponsible if such failure, as determined by the city, is unreasonable.
