Engineering Automation Work Order Services

Prospective Respondents: You are hereby notified of the following information in regard to the referenced RFP:

REVISION

1. Replace the Liquidated Damages Section on page 4 of 9 of Appendix A – Standard Agreement (24-25 of 48 in the original RFP PDF

File) in its entirety with the following:

Liquidated Damages

(a) By accepting this Contract, the Contractor agrees to the delivery and acceptance requirements of this Contract and its Work

Orders. If a Contract or Work Order schedule is not met, the delay will interfere with the Commission’s program. In the event of any such delay, it would be impractical and extremely difficult to establish the actual damage for which the Contractor is the material cause. The Commission and the Contractor therefore agree that, in the event of any such delay the amount of damage shall be the amount set forth in the Work Order under the Section “Liquidated Damages” and agree that the Contractor shall pay such amount as liquidated damages, not as a penalty. Such liquidated damages are in lieu of all other damages arising from such delay.

(b) The Commission and Contractor agree that the Deliverables identified in the Payment Schedule set forth in the Work Order as “Major Deliverables” (the “Major Deliverables”) shall be those for which liquidated damages shall be applicable in the event of delay of their completion beyond the delivery date specified in the Work Order. If Major Deliverables are not identified in the Work Order, liquidated damages shall apply to the total value of the Work Order.

(c) The amount of liquidated damages for any such Major Deliverable not completed by the deliverable schedule shall be set out in the applicable Work Order. Liquidated damages shall be assessed each calendar day until the date on which the

Contractor completes such Major Deliverable, up to a maximum of thirty (30) calendar days. Contractor may recoup the total amount of liquidated damages assessed against previous Major Deliverables if the Contractor accelerates progress towards future Major Deliverables and meets the final project completion date set out in the Work Order.

(d) If, at the end of the thirty (30) day period specified in “Liquidated Damages - (c)” above, the Contractor has not met the schedule for completion of the Major Deliverable, then the Commission, at no additional expense and at its option, may either:

(1) immediately terminate the Contract and all software, documentation, reports, Developed Materials and any other materials provided for or created for the Commission as a result of this Contract shall be given to the Commission, and the Commission shall be entitled to its remedies under “Termination”; or

(2) order the Contractor to continue with no decrease in effort until the work is completed in accordance with the Contract and accepted by the Commission or until the Commission terminates the Contract. If the Contract is continued, any liquidated damages will also continue until the work is completed.

(e) At the end of the Contract term, or at such other time(s) as identified in the Contract, liquidated damages shall be paid by the Contractor and collected by the Commission by deducting them from the invoices submitted under this Contract or any other contract Contractor has with the Commission, by collecting them through the performance security, if any, or by billing the Contractor as a separate item.

(f) To the extent that the delay is caused by the Commission, no liquidated damages will be applied.

(g) If the delays are caused by the default of a Subcontractor, and if such default arises out of causes beyond the control of both the Contractor and Subcontractor, and without their fault or negligence, the Contractor shall not be liable for liquidated damages for delays, unless the supplies or services to be furnished by the Subcontractor were obtainable from other sources in sufficient time to permit the Contractor to meet the required performance schedule.
