Summary

This is a Standard Agreement form (STD 213) issued by the State of California Department of General Services for use in state contracting. The document serves as a template for agreements between the State of California and contractors providing services or deliverables. The form is designed to establish the contractual framework between a state agency and a vendor, with provisions for defining the scope of work, budget details, payment terms, and general terms and conditions. The agreement includes designated exhibit sections for the Scope of Work (Exhibit A), Budget Detail and Payment Provisions (Exhibit B), and General Terms and Conditions (Exhibit C). Key contract information fields include the contract agency name, contractor information, contract start and end dates, and maximum contract amount. The form requires signatures from both the contractor and authorized state agency representatives, along with the contractor's business address and title information.

This reference document is applicable to the California Arts Council's 50th Anniversary Awards Ceremony event producer contract opportunity, which has a budget ceiling of $90,000. The STD 213 form provides the standard contractual structure that would be used to formalize the agreement with the selected event producer vendor. The form is presented as a reference document for prospective bidders to understand the contractual framework and requirements they would need to comply with if selected. Interested parties must submit proposals to Procurement@arts.ca.gov by the stated deadline, and the contract may be awarded to eligible vendors including California-based independent contractors, small businesses, disabled veteran business enterprises, nonprofit organizations, and private organizations.
