The period commences when the procurement document is received and terminates when the Board of County Commissioners approves an award. When the solicitation silence period is in effect, no oral or written communication is allowed regarding the solicitation between prospective proposers and members of the Board of County Commissioners, the County Administrator or members of the Board Approved Review Committee. All questions or requests for information regarding the solicitation must be directed to the designated Purchasing Representative listed in the solicitation. Any information thought to affect the committee or staff recommendation submitted after proposals are due, should be directed to the Purchasing Director or his appointed representative. It shall be the Purchasing Director’s decision whether to consider this information in the decision process. Any attempt by a vendor/proposer to influence a member or members of the aforementioned shall be grounds to disqualify the proposer from consideration during the selection process. All proposers must agree to comply with this policy by signing the following statement and including it with their submittal. I representing Signature Company Name Hereby agree to abide by the County’s “No Contact Clause” and understand violation of this policy shall result in disqualification of my proposal/submittal.
