Attachment 1 Cooperative+Purchasing+Vendor+Agreement (1).pdf

This document is a Cooperative Purchasing Vendor Agreement for Multnomah County, Oregon, specifically Attachment 1 to RFP-1-2023. The agreement allows other public agencies to potentially establish contracts or price agreements with the awarded contractor under the same terms, conditions, and prices as the original contract, in accordance with Oregon Revised Statute 279A.215 and Multnomah County's Public Contracting Review Board procurement rules. The document provides vendors the option to either extend or decline pricing and terms to other public agencies by marking "YES" or "NO" on the form.

The agreement clarifies that any purchases by participating public agencies will be directly between the contractor and those agencies, and will not impact the contractor's obligations to Multnomah County. The county makes no guarantees about the participation of other public agencies or the estimated purchase volumes. Vendors are given the opportunity to decline extending their pricing and terms by providing written notification with their solicitation response, offering flexibility in how they choose to participate in potential cooperative purchasing arrangements.
