About this file

This is an appendix detailing electronic transaction fee requirements for a Maryland Department of General Services statewide contract, effective February 2026. The appendix establishes the fee structure and payment procedures that the contractor must follow throughout the contract term for pest control services at the Silver Spring facility from December 1, 2026, through November 30, 2029.

The contractor must remit an electronic transaction fee equal to one percent (1%) of the total approved invoice amount for all accepted goods and services provided during each monthly reporting period, calculated on the gross invoice amount less returns or credits. Payment is due no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the end of each monthly reporting period and must be submitted either via ACH through the Maryland Comptroller's office (with notation "DGS 1% Fee" in the comments section) or by check to the Department of General Services' Fiscal Services Division at 301 W. Preston Street, Room 1309, Baltimore, MD 21201. Simultaneously with payment, the contractor must email Attachment Z - Monthly Usage Report documenting all accepted goods or services to dgs.statewidecontractsusagereport@maryland.gov. The contractor cannot charge the electronic transaction fee directly to customers or identify it as a separate line item on invoices; the fee must be incorporated into contract unit prices. Failure to timely and accurately remit the electronic transaction fees constitutes default under the contract.
