AISDP 0003 - CTPA INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FORM.pdf

This is an Interlocal Agreement Form for the Amarillo Independent School District (AISD) related to Food Service Equipment Repair Services, establishing the terms under which vendors may extend contract pricing to the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance (CTPA) and other local government entities. The agreement permits qualified vendors awarded contracts for commercial kitchen equipment repair and refrigeration equipment repair services to honor the same pricing and contract terms for purchases made by CTPA member districts and other political subdivisions. The District seeks qualified contractors to provide timely and professional repair services necessary to maintain safe and efficient operation of food service facilities across District campuses and facilities on an as-needed basis. AISD reserves the right to award contracts to one or more qualified proposers to establish a pool of available vendors and may utilize any awarded vendor based on availability, response time, expertise, workload, equipment type, or other factors deemed to be in the District's best interest.

The form requires vendors to indicate whether they will honor interlocal purchasing agreements and extend contract pricing to CTPA member districts and other authorized political subdivisions in accordance with the Interlocal Cooperation Act (Chapter 791, Government Code). Vendors must complete the form by entering their company name, authorized representative signature, and date while marking yes or no regarding participation in the CTPA interlocal purchasing program. A complete list of CTPA member districts is available at the provided Google Sites link. This arrangement allows the District to leverage its purchasing power while providing other local government entities access to competitively negotiated contract pricing for food service equipment repair services.
