Legacy DCS is accepting
Lumber bids for their Westside Landing development in the Northwest Austin, TX
area, with deliveries beginning in August, 2018. An award will be made to
a qualified bidder who comes in budget. The Buyer requests you call the number
above for help and not Legacy directly.
You should find this bid contains common items and standard terms, many of which
you may already honor, but if anything appears uncommon please advise Sorcity so
we can review whether a change can be made.
If interested please read this ebid, the
Sorcity Member Agreement, and email notices so you bid accurately and
avoid bidding outside the guidelines.
This is not an automatic award to the lowest bidder, but price, quality
and reliability will all be considered for award.
If you identify any conflicting information in this bid,
you must get clarification before placing a bid, since your bid can not
be withdrawn.
Please perform honorably. Bids are only accepted through this ebid so please adhere to the ebid process so you remain eligible for
this and future awards.
BID STRUCTURE:
Bids will only be
accepted through this
ebid. Bidding in any other manner, or
attempting to sell directly to one of the Buyer's locations will put you in
violation and will remove you from good standing with Sorcity for future
business. We look forward to your participation and help in maintaining the
integrity of this fair and objective bid process. Here is a table of the sub-groups in which you may bid if you can provide
all items in a sub-group:
No Markups: Buyer is requesting your lowest straightforward price and
not a price that includes any builder commission, mark-up, or rebate.
If you are bidding trusses, review each drawing and all specifications
provided, then develop your Truss Package Price for each of the 3 floor
plans, then enter each of the package prices in the Line Item Worksheet
"Master Takeoff" tab where noted (highlighted in green).
Takeoff (Line Item Worksheet)
First: Save this
Takeoff to your desktop, then enter your per unit prices. Your
“Total bid price” will calculate. Verify.
Follow the Worksheet instructions and fill in all
items highlighted in green.
Enter only the “Total” from the Worksheet, in the
bid box that will appear below when the bid opens. Do not enter line item
prices below.
Your Takeoff MUST be returned to
Sorcity within 1-hour of bid end, regardless where you stopped bidding.
You must bid the exact specifications listed, however substitutes may be
accepted if approved.
This request is for the loose lumber listed, so manufactured wall panels
will not be accepted.
The following documents are part of the complete solicitation package.
Suppliers must read all documents carefully and comply with all
instructions.

SPECIAL NOTES:
Sorcity follows the Institute for Supply Managements
(ISMs) Ethics Guidelines to ensure suppliers are treated fairly and equally,
therefore:
All clarifying questions or exceptions should be
asked by calling the number above or through the Question & Answer link
above.
Answers will be posted shortly thereafter for
suppliers to view. You will have the opportunity to speak with the Buyer if
they contact you to discuss your bid, which is when you can discuss your
value add.
You agree that no assumptions are to be made, and
that content, or clauses, not contained in this ebid do not apply, unless
approved in writing by the Buyer and Sorcity.
This includes all
lumber sold to Legacy DCS for the 41 homes and casitas included in the
master list, as well as for floor plan options and additional homes not
included in the master list.
You must bid on all
items listed in any sub-group bid. No line items or quantities may be left
out (check with Sorcity on any concerns if needed)
You must include all
shipping/delivery costs in your bid (forklift is not needed). Only 1 package
per delivery is likely needed.
Hot Shots: Supplier
will provide any additional supplies requested by the Buyer at the same
prices submitted in the Line Item Worksheet and within the same or earlier
delivery timeframe. Delivery will be at the same ebid price unless otherwise
agreed, such as where the Buyer may need it much quicker.
The Buyer intends to
award all line items but reserves the right to not award a line item where
the per-unit price is substantially higher than the market price.
You may not enter a per
unit price higher than your catalog price.
Any substitutes that
may be allowed must be equal or better quality than the item listed.
Performance correction
period for this bid is 5-days from time of problem (see Sorcity Agreement
for details on performance correction).
Any additional costs
not included in the price bid, except any additions requested by the Buyer,
are at the expense of the awarded supplier.
Price Fluctuation -
Based on frequent price fluctuations in Lumber, Buyer agrees to a price
increase or decrease at each 30-day period. The change in Lumber costs will
be determined based on the cost published in Random Lengths (or, if such
publication is no longer published, then based on such other independent
publication as is mutually acceptable to both parties). Failure to provide
price decreases on time will result in such decreases being retroactive to
the beginning of the perspective period where those reductions should have
taken effect and may be a Supplier performance issue.
We appreciate your
participation in this ebid opportunity!
