If the delivery is delayed beyond the due date and hour set for receipt of proposals, proposals shall not be accepted.

All proposals received before the time set for receipt of proposals shall be kept secure. The proposals shall not be opened or viewed and shall remain in a locked box or a safe. If an RFP is cancelled, proposals shall be returned to the Contractors. Necessary precautions shall be taken to ensure the security of the bid box or safe. Before technical proposal opening, information concerning the identity and number of proposals received shall only be made available to employees of Calvert County Government Procurement Office. If the Contractor to whom an award is made shall fail to execute the Contract hereto attached, and as herein provided, the award may be annulled and the Contract awarded to the next most responsible Contractor, and such Contractor shall fulfill every stipulation embraced herein, as if they were the original party to whom the award was made; or Calvert County Government may reject all proposals as its interests may require. Contractors shall carefully examine all documentation. In case doubt shall arise as to the meaning or intent of anything comprised in the specifications, inquiry shall be made to the Procurement Office before a proposal is submitted. Written questions and inquiries shall be accepted from all Contractors. The Procurement Office shall be the sole point of contact for this solicitation unless otherwise instructed herein. Written requests for information related to this RFP shall be directed to the Procurement Office, Charlotte DeStephano, Procurement Specialist, by E-Mail: Charlotte.DeStephano@calvertcountymd.gov.
