3.15.2 Assessment of Liquidated Damages

a. Once TWC has determined that liquidated damages are to be assessed, the TWC shall notify the Successful Bidder of the

Page 14 of 21 Ver. 2 10/24 IFB No 3202600161 assessment(s).

e. Liquidated damages will not be assessed during the specified cure period in the corrective action plan for the activity in question.

If the breach is not cured or the Successful Bidder does not provide a written justification and/or approved corrective action plan, TWC will withhold liquidated damages from payments to the Successful Bidder, or, if no payments have been made, TWC will make demand of payment of liquidated damages.

g. The Successful Bidder must make payment within thirty (30) days of

TWC’s demand.

h. In the event the Successful Bidder fails to pay within the thirty (30) day period, TWC may utilize the option to withhold any additional payments.

i. Failure to pay assessed liquidated damages within the designated time frame may be deemed by TWC to be a breach of Contract.

Subcontractor. As a condition of award, an authorized officer or agent of each proposed Subcontractor may be required to sign a statement to the effect that the Subcontractor has read and will agree to abide by Bidder’s obligations under any Contract awarded pursuant to this Solicitation.

The Successful Bidder must obtain prior written approval from TWC if any part of the Contract between TWC and the Successful Bidder is to be subcontracted, and the Subcontractor must comply with all applicable requirements of TWC. TWC reserves the sole right to require the Successful

Bidder to terminate any Subcontractor with or without cause.

In the event TWC approves of the use of any Subcontractor, the Successful

Bidder is not relieved of its responsibility and obligation to meet all the requirements of this Solicitation.

TWC will incur no additional obligations, and the obligations of the

Successful Bidder will not be reduced as a result of any such subcontracts.
