About this file
This document is a comprehensive technology contract between the State of North Dakota and Motorola Solutions, Inc., for a Statewide Interoperable Radio Network (SIRN). The contract involves multiple state and local agencies, including various county communications centers, sheriff's offices, and public safety answering points (PSAPs) throughout North Dakota. The contract also includes potential interoperability considerations with neighboring states like Minnesota, South Dakota, and Montana, as well as Canadian provinces Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
The contract covers the design, implementation, and maintenance of a P25 Phase 2 TDMA 800 MHz radio communication system, including infrastructure, dispatch consoles, subscriber units, tower sites, and related services. The system will be deployed in three phases, with a total contract duration from January 18, 2019, to January 17, 2024, and potential extensions up to 12 months. The solution includes 139 total radio sites, 22 dispatch console locations, and provides statewide coverage with 95% mobile coverage and 85% portable on-street coverage. The contract allows for cooperative purchasing by state entities, higher education institutions, other government entities, nonprofit organizations, tribal agencies, and the International Peace Garden. Pricing will be subject to annual adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index, with a maximum increase of 5% per year.

Dakota, STATE, in its sole discretion, by written notice to CONTRACTOR, may terminate this Contract in whole or in part. The parties recognize that because of changing technology, the public policy of North Dakota may result in a need to pursue other technology , resulting in termination of this Contract at the conclusion of any Phase set forth in the SOW.
c. Termination for Lack of Funding or Authority STATE, by written notice to CONTRACTOR, may terminate the whole or any part of this Contract under any of the following conditions:
1) If funding from federal, state, or other sources is not obtained and continued at levels sufficient to allow for purchase of the services or supplies in the indicated quantities or term.
2) If federal or state laws or rules are modified or interpreted in a way that the services are no longer allowable or appropriate for purchase under this Contract or are no longer eligible for the funding proposed for payments authorized by this Contract.
3) If any license, permit, or certificate required by law or rule, or by the terms of this Contract, is for any reason denied, revoked, suspended, or not renewed.
Termination of this Contract under this subsection is without prejudice to any obligations or liabilities of either party already accrued prior to termination.
d. Termination for Cause.
STATE may terminate this Contract effective upon delivery of written notice to CONTRACTOR, or any later date stated in the notice:
1) If CONTRACTOR fails to provide services required by this Contract within the time specified or any extension agreed to by STATE; or
2) If CONTRACTOR fails to perform any of the other provisions of this Contract, or so fails to pursue the work as to endanger performance of this Contract in accordance with its terms.
3) Except for a default by STATE for failing to pay any amount when due under this Agreement which must be cured immediately, the defaulting Party will have thirty
(30) days after receipt of the notice of default to either cure the default or, if the default is not curable within thirty (30) days, provide a written cure plan. The defaulting Party will begin implementing the cure plan immediately after receipt of notice by the other Party that it approves the plan.
The rights and remedies of STATE provided in this subsection are not exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under this Contract.
If the Contract is terminated for any reason other than default, the STATE is responsible to CONTRACTOR for the cost of all services rendered and all equipment shipped up until the notice of termination in accordance with acceptance criteria and change management. The STATE will also be responsible for any negotiated, mutually agreed upon costs incurred by CONTRACTOR to shut down the work in process. The STATE must provide a 30-day formal written notice of termination for cause.
9. SUSPENSION FOR CONVENIENCE
STATE shall have the right at any time to order the services of CONTRACTOR fully or partially stopped for STATE’s own convenience. STATE shall provide CONTRACTOR written notice of the reason for and duration of the suspension. The schedule, which includes the payment schedule, shall be delayed on a day-for-day basis to the extent STATE has issued a stop work order to CONTRACTOR and such stop work order is causing delays in completing services in accordance with the schedule. The parties shall execute a change order setting forth all material terms that the stoppage is anticipated to have on the schedule. CONTRACTOR shall have the right to submit claims in accordance with the terms of this Contract that result from delays caused by any stop work orders issued under this section. STATE agrees to be responsible for payment of reasonable delay charge claims. Delay charge claims may include costs incurred by CONTRACTOR or its subcontractors for additional freight, warehousing and handling of equipment; extension of the warranties; travel; suspending and re-mobilizing the work;
additional engineering, project management, and standby time calculated at then current rates; and preparing and implementing an alternative implementation plan.
10. FORCE MAJEURE
Neither party shall be held responsible for delay or default caused by fire, riot, terrorism, acts of God or war if the event is beyond the party’s reasonable control and the affected party gives notice to the other party promptly upon occurrence of the event causing the delay or default or that is reasonably expected to cause a delay or default.
11. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
The parties agree that STATE may suffer damages due to a failure by CONTRACTOR to provide deliverables or services under this Contract. Because it is difficult to fix the actual damages sustained in the event of such delays, STATE and CONTRACTOR agree that the amount of damages will be determined as per this section. In the event of any non-performance, CONTRACTOR shall pay that amount as liquidated damages and not as a penalty. Amounts due to STATE as liquidated damages may be deducted by STATE from any amounts payable to CONTRACTOR during the Phase in which liquidated damages were recognized, and any amount outstanding over and above the amounts deducted from the invoice will be promptly tendered by check from CONTRACTOR to
STATE.
Delays due to causes of Force Majeure or due to the responsibility of STATE shall extend the time for performance on a day-for-day basis. STATE will not assess liquidated damages against CONTRACTOR when the delay in delivery or performance is beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of CONTRACTOR.
