In accordance with reference (a), the Purchasing Director reviews all submittals for responsiveness and recommends to the Selection Committee (SC) her findings, which the SC may accept or arrive at a different conclusion. This RFQ has a designated County Business Enterprise (CBE) goal of 29%. Twelve submittals were received by the Purchasing Division and one vendor, HP Consultants, Inc., requested withdrawal.
