Delivered, meaning the vendor is responsible for all freight costs and retains title until the County takes ownership at a designated location in Los Angeles, California.

Vendors must demonstrate financial responsibility, past performance, and adherence to strict recordkeeping requirements, with documentation retained for three years after final payment. Offerors must submit proposals exclusively through the County’s Vendor Self Service portal by June 2, 2026, with no exceptions for hard copy, fax, or email submissions. Mandatory attachments include signed authorization letters from Keysight, completed Exhibits 3, 4, and 6 for any claimed socioeconomic status such as Local Small Business Enterprise, Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise, or Certified Business Enterprise, along with technical literature confirming all equipment specifications. Although the solicitation is not federally funded and does not require UEI or CAGE codes, participation in county-certified small business programs is incentivized. Payment is processed electronically via direct deposit through the County’s portal, with invoicing due monthly by the 15th of the following month and requiring prior County approval. No formal Contracting Officer’s Representative or technical liaison is named, and oversight responsibilities fall generally to the Purchasing Agent and Auditor-Controller. The contract is structured as a Firm Fixed Price award under California Government Code, with no options or modificable terms specified, and all evaluation is based strictly on responsiveness and price without trade-offs.
