No Guarantee of Volume. UTHSA does not solicit or guarantee any specific amount of compensation, volume, minimum, or maximum amount of Services under this RFP or any contract or agreement resulting from this RFP.
1.3 Objective of Request for Proposal
The University is soliciting proposals in response to this Request for Proposal RFP 745-26-P15, from qualified proposers to provide operational guidance services (the “Services for Beverage Vending Machines Services are more defined in Section 5 (Scope of Work) of this RFP.
1.4 Group Purchase Authority
Texas law authorizes institutions of higher education (defined by §61.003, Education Code) to use the group purchasing procurement method (ref. §§51.9335, 73.115, and 74.008, Education Code). Additional Texas institutions of higher education may therefore elect to enter into a contract with the successful Proposer under this RFP. In particular, Proposer should note that University is part of The University of Texas System (UT System), which is comprised of fourteen institutions described at http://www.utsystem.edu/institutions. UT System institutions routinely evaluate whether a contract resulting from a procurement conducted by one of the institutions might be suitable for use by another, and if so, this RFP could give rise to additional purchase volumes. As a result, in submitting its proposal, Proposer should consider proposing a pricing model and other commercial terms that take into account the higher volumes and other expanded opportunities that could result from the eventual inclusion of other institutions in the purchase contemplated by this RFP. Any purchases made by other institutions based on this RFP will be the sole responsibility of those institutions.
1.5 Transition Plan
As a government entity, UTHSA is obligated by statute to re-solicit, or to leverage eligible Group Purchasing Organization contracts, to continue this service upon expiration or termination of this agreement. Awarded Proposer agrees that if the Signed Agreement expires or is terminated for any reason, then, at University’s option, Awarded Proposer will continue to perform the Beverage Vending Machines in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Signed Agreement until University contracts with a new qualified and experienced contractor(s) to perform the Beverage Vending Machines or is able to perform the Beverage Vending Machines in-house; provided, that, Awarded Proposer will not be required to continue performing the Beverage Vending Machines for more than four (4) months after expiration or termination of the Signed Agreement.
Awarded Proposer agrees to cooperate with, and assist, University’s efforts to transition to another contractor(s) or to perform the Beverage Vending Machines in-house.
