The undersigned Contractor, being duly sworn upon his/her/its oath, affirms under the penalties of perjury that:

2. Contractor certifies by submission of this proposal that neither contractor nor any of its

and
3. Contractor has not, nor has any successor to, nor an affiliate of, Contractor, engaged in investment

time -to -time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time -to -time, a Contractor is

i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty million

alien. Contractor agrees that he/she/it shall enroll in and verify the work eligibility status of all of

5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public

6. Persons, partnerships, corporations, associations, or joint venturers awarded a contract by
the City of South Bend through its agencies, boards, or commissions shall not discriminate against
any employee or applicant for employment in the performance of a City contract with respect to
hire, tenure, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, or any matter directly or indirectly
related to employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, age, gender
expression, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability that does not affect that person's ability

In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials, or
any combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts awarded
under public bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are not required by law, the City,
its agencies, boards, or commissions may consider the Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain
participation by those Contractors certified by the State of Indiana as a Minority Business

responsible, responsive bidder.
In no event shall persons or entities seeking the award of a City contract be required to award a

WBE/MBE. A finding of a discriminatory practice by the City's MBE/WBE Utilization Board
shall prohibit that person or entity from being awarded a City contract for a period of one (1) year
from the date of such determination, and such determination may also be grounds for terminating
the contact for which the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.

be made a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South Bend,
Indiana or any of its agencies, boards or commissions.

employment in the performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter
directly or indirectly related to employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender
expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of
this provision may be regarded as material breach of contract.
I, the undersigned bidder or agent as contractor on a public works project, understand my statutory
obligations to the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States (I.C. 5-16-
Version 10/18/2016 Page - 4 Public Works Quote
8-1). I hereby certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for this project will use steel
products or foundry products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I understand I
have an affirmative duty to notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not include the use of
steel products or foundry products made in the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation
and responsibility to provide a justification to the City, subject to review and approval, why the
cost of United States made steel or foundry products is unreasonable. Prior to award and upon
submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry products made in the United States,
the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination if the price of United
States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations hereunder may result in
forfeiture of contractual payments.
I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid for public
works are true and correct.

Mr. Jacob M. Klosinski, PE
City of South Bend Environmental Services
3113 Riverside Drive
South Bend, IN 46628
Dear Mr. :llosinski:
Thank you for your request for aservice and price proposal on the purchase and installation of a.
flagpole for the South Bend Organic Resource Facility,
The purchase of a, flagpole is a significant expenditure and may represent a once in a li;l` time
investment, As in other products and services, there are many considerations and variations that
are not, readily apparent to the customer not well versed in the parrcliase of flagpoles. Therefore,
making the right decision based on a balance of price, quality and service is very important and
potentially difficult.
Our COMInitruClIt to YOU:
1. To provide expertise.
2. To provide informed and objective advice,
3. To be responsive to your needs.
4. To provide competitive prices.
5. To provide the best value (the lowest price is not always the lowest cost).
Our goal is not focused on "making the sale". More importantly, we want to assist the customer
in making the decision that is "right" for the customer - considering quality, price and long-term
service. There are varying levels of quality and service. We take pride in providing the highest
quality flagpoles and customer service. We have carefully selected the manufacturer of our
flagpoles based on years of experience in installation, maintenance and "after sales" service. We
can demonstrate to you the difference in quality. The lowest price is not always the lowest
cost.
To accomplish these goals, we will take the time to understand your situation, preferences and
needs.
Specifications:
1. See Attachment A
Mr. Jacob Klosinski
Wednesday, April 18, 2018
Page 2
Notes:
1. We have this quote based on the specifications provided. However, there are many variations
and options available.
2. The options listed have varying degrees of benefit associated with them. It may be useful to
discuss the options before a decision is made.
3. Installation generally requires a two to four week lead-time.
4. Installation of the pole is critical. To the untrained observer, improper installation cannot be
detected! Improper installation can create both short-term and long-term safety issues. You can
be assured of the expertise and care needed for proper installation when you select Flags
International®.
Terms:
1. Price quotes are valid for 30 days.
2. This is a special order flagpole. We will require a valid city purchase order prior to our ordering
of the flagpole.
3. Lead-time to receive this special order flagpole is 2-3 weeks. We will schedule to install the
foundation when we are given the ship date of the flagpole.
4. City of South Bend terms are Net 30 Days.
Warranties:
1. The manufacturer provides a one-year limited warranty on flagpole materials and workmanship.
Improper installation can void this warranty.
2. Installations by Flags International® include a one-year limited warranty on the stability of the
flagpole installation. Understandably, this warranty does not cover situations caused by human
intervention (e.g., significant displacement of earth around the flagpole foundation, striking the
flagpole with a vehicle, etc.), nor does it cover acts of nature (e.g., lightning strikes, wind
conditions exceeding those shown in the wind speed chart, erosion, rising ground water, etc.).
If we may provide additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
David S. Aker
