IMPROPER CONTACT WITH CITY EMPLOYEES: All vendors submitting a bid (including the firm's employees, representatives, agents, lobbyists, attorneys, and subcontractors) will refrain from direct or indirect contact for the purpose of influencing or creating bias in the evaluation/selection process with any person who may play a part in the evaluation/selection process.
