This document is a set of terms and conditions for a contract or agreement between Placer County and a contractor. The document covers various aspects such as indemnification, force majeure, taxes, delivery, fixed contract quantities, open-end contracts, rights and remedies of the county for default, local vendor preference, invoices and payment terms, legal requirements, assignment, and involvement of other agencies. The contractor is required to indemnify Placer County against any losses, claims, liens, demands, and causes of action arising from the contract or agreement. The contractor is also responsible for investigating, handling, responding to, providing defense for, and defending any claims or suits at their own expense, even if the claims are groundless or false. In case of an emergency or natural disaster that causes a delay or interferes with the use or delivery of the products/services, the county may suspend deliveries until the cause is removed or the damage is repaired. The county reserves the right to acquire products/services from other sources during the suspension. Placer County is exempt from Federal Excise Tax but not exempt from California State sales tax. The applicable state sales taxes will be added to the purchase order. All prices must be FOB Destination, unloaded inside and assembled unless otherwise indicated. For fixed contract quantities, purchase orders will be issued to the selected vendor after receiving all required documents. In the case of an open-end contract (blanket purchase order), there is no guarantee of the total quantity of commodities/services to be purchased. The county reserves the right to issue purchase orders as and when required or issue a blanket purchase order for individual agencies or multiple county agencies. The vendor may offer to supply goods and services for the same price in subsequent years, and the county reserves the right to extend the contract period on a year-to-year basis. The county has rights and remedies in case of default by the vendor, including rejecting non-conforming items, purchasing replacement items in the open market, and recovering any loss or damage sustained by the county. A local preference credit of 5.0% is given to Placer County businesses when evaluating quotations for supplies, equipment, materials, and services that are not part of a public project. Vendors claiming local vendor preference must submit an Affidavit of Eligibility. Invoices should be mailed to the specified county department and must include the purchase order number, blanket purchase order number, or contract number. Payment terms are Net 30 days unless a cash discount is allowed for payment within a specified period. Prompt payment discounts are earned if payment is made within the prescribed term. The development, submittal, and evaluation of quotations, as well as disputes, are governed by federal, state, county, and local ordinances, rules, regulations, and policies. The contract awarded cannot be assigned by the vendor without written approval from the county and cannot become an asset in any bankruptcy, receivership, or guardianship proceedings. Additionally, the involvement of other agencies may be required in the contract or agreement.
