City of Sunny Isles Beach |Invitation to Bid No. 17-08-01 11 2.4 OPTIONS TO RENEW Prior to, or upon completion, of that initial term, the City shall have the option to renew this contract for an additional four (4) one year renewals. Prior to completion of each exercised contract term, the City may consider an adjustment to the price based on changes in the following pricing index: Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W): Miami – Fort Lauderdale, FL, and shall not exceed five percent (5%). It is the vendor’s responsibility to request any pricing adjustment under this provision. For any adjustment to commence on the first day of any exercised option period, the vendor’s request for adjustment should be submitted 60 days prior to expiration of the then current contract term. The vendor adjustment request should not be in excess of the relevant pricing index change. If adjustment request is not received from the vendor, the City will assume the vendor has agreed that the optional term may be exercised without pricing adjustment. Any adjustment request received after the commencement of a new option period may not be considered. The City reserves the right to negotiate lower pricing for the additional term(s) based on market research information or other factors that influence price. The City rese rves the right to apply any reduction in pricing for the additional term(s) based on the downward movement of the applicable index. The City reserves the right to reject any price adjustments submitted by the vendor and/or to not exercise any otherwise available option period based on such price adjustments. Continuation of the contract beyond the initial period, and any option subsequently exercised, is a City prerogative, and not a right of the vendor. This prerogative will be exercised only when such continuation is clearly in the best interest of the City. Should the vendor decline the City’s right to exercise the option period, the City may consider the vendor in default which may affect the vendor’s eligibility for future contracts. 2.5 METHOD OF AWARD Award of this contract will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible vendor . If a vendor fails to submit an offer for all items within the group, its offer for that specific group will be rejected. The City reserves the right to award to multiple bidders. Award to multiple vendors may be considered for the convenience of the City and does not exempt the primary vendor from fulfilling its contractual obligations. Failure to perform as noted may result in the vendor being deemed in breach of contract. The City may terminate the contract for default. The geographical location of the proposers facility will be taken into consideration during the evaluation process. 2.6 MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS The awarded vendor must meet the following minimum requirements; • Must be ASE certified in medium / light duty truck repair and automobiles
