Question Deadline 05/10/2024 at 12:00 PM CT All questions or requests for clarification must be in writing, directed to the attention of Deborah O Donnell, sent via email to dodonnell@thehacc.org The purpose of this IFB is to typically award work with a value less than $20,000 per task order (typically, perhaps much less). Therefore, we do not anticipate that payment and performance bonds will be typically necessary. However, in the rare case that such bonds are necessary for a task order, the Agency will negotiate with the Contractor a fair and reasonable cost to reimburse the Contractor for such, which cost will NOT include any profit and overhead for providing such bond(s), if required by the Agency. Right to Reject, Waive, or Terminate the IFB. Reject any or all bids, to waive any informality in the IFB process, or to terminate the IFB process at any time, if deemed by the Agency to be in its best interests.
