Description
This solicitation is a “Quick Quote” (QQ) issued by the State of Alabama’s Office of the Chief Procurement Officer. It is a streamlined, electronic procurement vehicle that can be used for any goods or services the State wishes to purchase. The QQ boiler‑plate applies to every Quick Quote solicitation and sets out the generic contractual terms, registration requirements, tax obligations, payment methods, inspection procedures, and dispute‑resolution process. Because the solicitation contains no specific scope of work, the vendor must refer to the individual QQ posting (in this case #856865‑BOOT CAMP‑RTP) for the exact product or service being sought.
• Vendors must be registered in Alabama Buys and, if out‑of‑state, also with the Alabama Secretary of State.
• If the vendor employs staff in Alabama, they must be enrolled in E‑Verify and provide verification within five (5) calendar days of notice.
• All payments are electronic (EFT, state‑issued credit cards, P‑cards) and the State does not pay sales tax; suppliers must collect and remit Alabama sales/use tax.
• Delivery is subject to State inspection; a signed delivery receipt does not constitute acceptance.
• Disputes are handled first by good‑faith negotiation, then by a Board of Adjustment claim and optional non‑binding mediation in Montgomery, AL.
These generic terms mean any qualified supplier can submit a quote, but the vendor must ensure compliance with the registration, tax, and E‑Verify obligations before the March 24, 2026 deadline.
