1 Purchasing & Tendering Policy No District of Lake Country Bottom Wood Lake Road Lake Country, BC V4V 2M1 t: f: lakecountry.bc.ca Date The following was adopted as Policy by Resolution No at the Regular Council Meeting held on January 17, Purpose The Policy establishes and governs the principles and limits of District purchasing. Policy PREAMBLE: The District of Lake Country will seek to obtain goods or services from reliable suppliers, recognizing that although price is important, other elements of value, including quality, ability to deliver at required times, lowest life cycle cost, service and customer relations, constitute total cost to the District. In general, it is the policy of the District to buy in the open market and to seek the best value for its money. Maximizing the District s purchasing ability depends on different factors, such as ensuring good quality; taking advantage of economies of scale; defining fair project/project specifications, maximizing return on the disposal of District assets; and ensuring consistency in the application of this policy throughout the District. It is the District s intent to maintain good working relationships with the suppliers of goods and services and that it will avoid payment of service charges and interest by prompt payment of accounts when due. DEFINITIONS: Best Value Means lowest total cost to the District and includes, but is not limited to: Quality of workmanship and product; Timely delivery; Dependable service; Standardization; Ease of operation and/or administration; Low maintenance;
2 Purchasing & Tendering Policy No Page 2 Parts availability; Safety standards; Resale value; Suitability for intended use; Adherence to conditions of purchase; Adherence to specifications; Adherence to legal requirements; Lowest life cycle cost; Price. Invitational Tender Means tenders in which only certain vendors are requested by direct invitation to bid on a given contract. Newspaper advertising and electronic tendering is not used. Professional Consulting Services Means services to be provided by a person or persons who are licensed and regulated by the Province of British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan in their professional capacity, and which services are provided pursuant to those regulations. Such services include, but are not necessarily limited to, engineering, surveyors, accountants, planning, landscape architecture or legal services. Procurement Means the acquisition by any means, including by purchase, rental, lease or conditional sale of goods, services or construction, but does not include: (a) any form of government assistance such as grants, loans, equity infusion, guarantees or fiscal incentives; (b) government provision of goods and services to persons or other government organizations; or (c) land purchases; Procurement value Means the estimated total financial commitment resulting from procurement, considering the entire term of the contract if the procurement is for a service. Optional renewals are not considered. Public Tender Means tenders that are open for bidding by the general public. Any qualified bidder may submit a bid. Quotation Means a verbal or written bid to provide goods and/or services. It is most applicable where the goods and/or services are standard amongst vendors; consequently, there is no need for in depth proposals or tenders outlining detailed specifications and vendor qualifications. It is also applicable in cases where the procurement value is low relative to the administrative cost of a formal tendering process. Request for Proposal (RFP) Means a document seeking the creative input of the market place. It generally details the what, the when and the why, but not the how. It seeks the best value through competition and innovation. It describes in detail the project to be undertaken, the intended result of the project and the criteria for choosing the successful contractor or consultant. Cost is usually not the primary factor. There are generally multiple ways of completing a project and the District does not require a particular solution. Due to the confidential nature of some of these proposals, details are not revealed in public. Policy.docx 2

In addition, each department is responsible for ensuring the appropriate advertisements. b) All departments must ensure that budget funds are available within their approved budget. Departments must be consistent in following the guidelines set out in this Purchasing and Tendering Policy. 1.2 Budget Authority a) Through budget discussions and the culmination of the final budget, Council sets operating service levels and capital project priorities, together with the necessary funding. To enable departments to operate efficiently and effectively in the performance of those service levels set by Council, Department Directors have the authority to reallocate funds within their Operating Budget for which they are responsible. Along with this flexibility comes the responsibility to manage and ensure that the gross and net expenditures remain within the budget for which Department Directors are responsible. b) Council delegates to staff the authority to commit or expend funds within the budget, subject to the limitation authorized in Appendix A. c) With such delegated authority, it carries with it the responsibility to ensure that: i. the works, goods supplied or services rendered have met the standard contracted. ii. Contracts will be let through a tender process, where appropriate; iii. the price charged is that contracted for; iv. all terms and conditions of the contract are fulfilled; v. funds are available in the particular budget; and vi. the commitment or expenditure is a real charge against the activity to which it is coded. 1.3 Procurement Guidelines a) The following procurement guidelines are to be followed for the purchase of goods, services or construction projects. Professional consulting services are exempt from these guidelines and shall follow the guidelines illustrated under section 1.4. b) Where the guidelines require a tendering process, tendering may only be waived if approved by Council resolution.
