The County of Hawai‘i, through the Hawaii Police Department, is soliciting quotations for 35 Safariland SOLIS ALS Concealment OWB Holsters under solicitation number R2604720, with responses due by May 1, 2026, via the OpenGov Procurement Portal. The contract is governed by the County’s procurement code under Hawai‘i Revised Statutes Chapter 103D and HAR Title 3, with award expected to follow the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, meaning the contract will be awarded to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible offeror whose proposal meets all mandatory specifications and requirements. The item must conform exactly to the defined specifications, with no deviations permitted unless explicitly allowed as an alternate, and inspections and final acceptance are the sole responsibility of the County, conducted at its designated facility. Delivery is to be made FOB destination, with the contractor responsible for all freight, handling, and delivery charges, and performance is expected to begin upon issuance of a Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages applicable for delays not caused by excusable events beyond the contractor’s control. Contractors must ensure full compliance with all applicable financial, legal, and administrative requirements, including submission of a Good Standing Certificate from the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, a Tax Clearance Certificate through Hawai‘i Compliance Express, and, if the contract value exceeds $25,000, a certification of compliance with labor standards including wages, hours, and working conditions. For contracts exceeding $100,000, a Certificate of Cost or Pricing Data is required. Surety bonds for performance and payment may be mandated through the required Surety Acknowledgment exhibit. All proposals must be submitted electronically through the designated portal by the deadline—late submissions will be rejected—and must be complete and responsive, with no references to external documents or undefined specifications. Payment will be processed by the County’s Purchasing Division at 25 Aupuni Street, Suite 1101, Hilo, HI 96720, subject to funds availability and adherence to the contract’s financial controls, with record retention required for three years after final payment. No specific contract type such as FFP or IDIQ is formally designated, and while evaluation factors include price, responsiveness, and responsibility, no scoring weights or trade-off criteria are provided, reinforcing that award will be strictly on lowest price among technically acceptable responses.
