Artscape is a not-for-profit organization that
makes space for creativity and transforms communities.
Any Respondent making a submission in response to this Request for Expressions of Interest (REOI) to the Centre for Creative Sector Entrepreneurship does so fully accepting the following provisions:
This is a REOI only; it is not a procurement document. The information contained in this REOI is intended for information purposes only to assist interested parties in assessing whether or not to respond to such request. No representation or warranty express or implied, is made by Artscape or any of its agents, as to the accuracy or completeness of such information. Neither Artscape nor its agents will be responsible for, and hereby expressly disclaim, any and all liability for any errors, omissions or inaccuracies in connection therewith. In its response to this REOI, the Respondent must disclose to the Artscape, any potential conflict of interest that might compromise this process. If such a conflict of interest does exist, Artscape may, at its discretion, refuse to consider the response in question.
The Respondent must also disclose whether it is aware if any Artscape employee or member of the Board of Directors has a financial interest in the Respondent and the nature of that interest. If such an interest exists or arises at any point leading to the selection of the successful Respondent, Artscape may, at its discretion, refuse to consider the response, or proceed with the Respondent any further in this process unless and until the matter is resolved to Artscape’s sole satisfaction. All information provided by or obtained at any time from Artscape or its agents in any form in connection with this REOI that is not publicly available (i) must be treated in a highly confidential manner; (ii) is not to be used for any other purpose other than responding to this REOI; (iii) must not be disclosed to any other person without the prior written authorization of Artscape; and (iv) shall be returned to Artscape immediately upon the request of Artscape.
This exercise is not a request for tenders. This is a request for information only and no legal obligations will arise hereunder in any circumstances. Artscape reserves the right to amend the scope of this REOI, and to carry out discussions with one or more prospective Respondents at any time, or from time to time, for the purpose of attempting to finalize an acceptable agreement, at all times without recourse against Artscape and its agents, should no such agreement be concluded.
Artscape may proceed as it determines in its sole discretion, including to discontinue or invalidate this REOI and including to re-issue or proceed with a further REOI and Artscape will not be responsible for any losses or costs incurred by any Respondent as a result thereof. Artscape has the right not to respond to any report or request made by a Respondent and not to distribute copies of any reports or requests received from a Respondent and responses thereto, to the other Respondents. Where Artscape, in its discretion, considers that such report or request necessitates a change to this REOI, Artscape will prepare and issue an appropriate addendum to this REOI. Artscape reserves the right to terminate this REOI at any time for any reason.
