The document is an open-ended contract between two parties. It outlines the terms and conditions of their agreement, including the requirement for the vendor to provide detailed reports on the quantity, description, and amount of each acquisition made by the state from the contract, even if the amount is zero.
The contract supersedes any previous negotiations or agreements between the parties. It specifies the use of a State of Kansas Business Procurement Card for payment, with no additional charges allowed. The document also emphasizes the importance of disclosing any criminal or civil offenses that indicate a lack of business integrity or honesty by individuals or entities involved in the contract. Failure to disclose such offenses may result in disqualification or termination of the contract.
The purpose of the contract is to seek competition, and the vendor is required to notify the Division of Purchases if any specifications inadvertently restrict or limit bidding to a single source. The document also addresses the availability of the contract to political subdivisions, clarifying that the state has no responsibility for payments owed by these subdivisions.
It states that if the state is prevented or enjoined from proceeding with the acquisition due to litigation or other reasons beyond its control, the vendor will not be entitled to claim damages. Acceptance of items by the state does not relieve the vendor of liability in respect to any expressed or implied warranties.
The document also mentions that any breach of the contract terms or conditions will not be deemed a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach. If any term or condition is held invalid, it will not affect other valid terms or conditions. The contract also includes provisions required by law.
It specifies that all materials, supplies, or equipment offered by the vendor must be new, unused, and of the most current design, suitable for their intended purpose. Payment terms are typically net 30 days, and the vendor is required to submit quarterly reports detailing all acquisitions made by the state from the contract.
The document also addresses the disclosure of proposal content, stating that proposals will not be disclosed until after a contract award has been issued. Trade secrets or proprietary information can be withheld if labeled as such, but the vendor's entire proposal response package is not considered proprietary.
The special provisions of the contract include an administrative fee of 1/2% on all purchases, which must be paid within 30 days following each quarter. The contractor is also required to submit quarterly reports to the Division of Purchases detailing all acquisitions made by the state from the contract.
