SAIF Contract No. ______
Vendor Services Contract
This vendor services contract is between the State Accident Insurance Fund
Corporation, an Oregon independent public corporation dba SAIF Corporation (“SAIF”), and ___________________ (“Contractor”).
The parties agree as follows:
1. Statement of Work Contractor shall provide the services described in the
Statement of Work attached as Exhibit A (the “Services”). Exhibit A may contain additional terms and conditions, all of which form a part of this contract.
2. Consideration
2.1 As payment in full for the Services and subject to the terms of this contract, SAIF shall pay Contractor as set forth in Exhibit A. SAIF shall reimburse Contractor for expenses only to the extent provided in Exhibit A.
2.2 SAIF is not required to pay Contractor for any Services unless the Services are complete, conform to the specifications in the Statement of Work, and conform to the terms of this contract.
2.3 The maximum, not-to-exceed amount payable to Contractor under this contract is $_______. Contractor shall not submit invoices for, and SAIF is not required to pay, any amount in excess of that amount, unless the contract is amended to permit additional compensation. If the maximum amount is increased by amendment of this contract, the amendment must be signed by both parties before Contractor performs any Services subject to the amendment.
3. Term This contract is effective November 1, 2026, and expires October 31, 2029, unless extended under section 17 or terminated under sections 12 or 15.
4. Confidentiality
4.1 Contractor shall protect Confidential Information from unauthorized disclosure and use. “Confidential Information” means any information about an injured worker, a
SAIF-insured employer, a SAIF employee, SAIF’s information and security systems, SAIF business records, attorney-client privileged communications, or personal information of any kind obtained by Contractor or its employees or agents in the performance of this contract. Contractor shall not use Confidential Information for purposes other than those directly related to the purposes of this contract. Contractor shall not disclose Confidential Information to third parties without SAIF's prior written consent. Contractor may disclose Confidential Information to Contractor’s employees or consultants only as permitted by this contract, only on a “need-to-know” basis, and only after the employee or consultant has agreed to be bound by all of the terms of this contract related to the nondisclosure of information. Such disclosure right does not constitute a grant of ownership or license rights in any Confidential Information.
4.2 Other than information about injured workers, Confidential Information does not include information that (a) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Contractor or any of its employees or agents; or (b) was in
Contractor’s possession before it was disclosed by SAIF; or (c) was independently developed by Contractor without the use of SAIF’s Confidential Information.
Page 4 of 15: RFP 518 - On-call Plumbing Services - Salem, Oregon
4.3 Contractor acknowledges that the disclosure by Contractor of any Confidential
Information will give rise immediately to continuing irreparable injury to SAIF and others that is inadequately compensable in damages at law. Accordingly, and without prejudice to any other remedy available to SAIF, SAIF may seek injunctive relief related to Contractor’s disclosure or potential disclosure of Confidential Information.
4.4 Contractor’s obligations with respect to confidentiality survive termination of the contract.
5. Independent Contractor/Responsibility for Taxes and Withholding
5.1 Contractor shall perform all Services as an independent contractor. Contractor has no authority to incur or create any obligation for or to legally bind SAIF in any way.
SAIF may (a) determine and modify the delivery schedule for the Services and
(b) evaluate the quality of the completed performance; however, SAIF shall not control the means or manner of Contractor's performance. Contractor shall determine the appropriate means and manner of performing the Services.
5.2 Nothing in this contract is intended to make Contractor an “officer,” “employee,” or “agent” of SAIF, as those terms are used in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 30.265.
5.3 Contractor shall pay all taxes applicable to payments made to Contractor under this contract, and unless Contractor is subject to backup withholding, SAIF is not required to, and will not, withhold any amounts from those payments to cover Contractor's tax obligations. Contractor is not eligible for any social security, unemployment insurance, or workers' compensation benefits from payments made to Contractor under this contract, except as a self-employed individual.
6. Representations and Warranties Contractor represents and warrants to SAIF that:
6.1 Contractor will perform the Services in a timely and workmanlike manner using qualified personnel acting in accordance with applicable professional standards.
6.2 All Services conform to the specifications, capabilities, characteristics, functions, and performance standards in the Statement of Work, are free from error or defect that materially impairs use, and are free from defects in materials, workmanship, and design
(except to the extent that the design is dictated by SAIF).
6.3 Contractor is not in violation of, charged with, or to the best of Contractor’s knowledge, under any investigation with respect to violation of any law, ordinance, regulation, or any other requirement or order of any governmental or regulatory body, court, or arbitrator applicable to delivery of the Services, and Contractor’s delivery of the Services will not violate any such law, ordinance, regulation, requirement, or order.
6.4 Contractor is qualified to do business in the State of Oregon and has the authority to enter into this contract. Contractor possesses all required professional licenses to perform its obligations under this contract, and failure to maintain any such licenses shall constitute a material breach. This contract constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Contractor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
6.5 If Contractor is currently employed by the State of Oregon or the federal government, Contractor’s performance under this contract creates no potential or actual conflict of interest as defined by ORS Chapter 244 and no rules or regulations of
Contractor’s employing agency (state or federal) prohibit Contractor’s activities under this contract.
6.6 Contractor has no interest, and will not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, that would conflict with its obligation to perform under this contract.
7. Subcontracts/Assignment/Successors in Interest
7.1 Contractor shall not assign or transfer any rights in this contract, or delegate any duties, without first obtaining SAIF's prior written consent, which consent may not
Page 5 of 15: RFP 518 - On-call Plumbing Services - Salem, Oregon be withheld unreasonably. Upon written notice to SAIF, however, Contractor may assign its rights in this contract and delegate its duties under it to a successor to Contractor’s business by (a) merger, (b) a sale of all or substantially all of Contractor’s assets relating to this contract, or (c) a sale of a controlling interest of Contractor’s capital stock, as long as Contractor’s successor agrees in writing to assume Contractor’s duties under this contract.
7.2 Contractor shall not enter into any subcontracts for delivery of any of the
Services without SAIF’s prior written consent. SAIF’s consent to any subcontract does not relieve Contractor of any of its duties under this contract.
7.3 This contract is binding upon and inures to the benefit of each of the parties, and except as otherwise provided in the contract, their permitted legal successors and assigns.
8. Access to Records
8.1 Contractor shall maintain all financial records relating to the subject matter of this contract in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In addition, Contractor shall maintain any other records, books, documents, papers, plans, or writings pertinent to this contract in such a manner as to document clearly
Contractor's performance of its duties under this contract. Contractor shall retain and keep accessible all such financial records, books, documents, papers, plans, and writings for a minimum of six years, or such longer period as may be required under applicable law, following final payment and termination of this contract, or until the conclusion of any audit, controversy, or litigation arising out of or related to this contract, whichever date is later.
8.2 Contractor shall permit SAIF, the Oregon Secretary of State's Office, the federal government, and their duly authorized representatives access to, and allow them to make excerpts and transcripts of, Contractor’s financial records, books, documents, papers, plans, and writings for the purpose of auditing Contractor’s performance of its duties under this contract.
8.3 The Oregon Secretary of State is an intended beneficiary of this section 8.
9. Indemnification
9.1 Contractor shall indemnify and hold SAIF, the State of Oregon, and their officers, employees, and agents harmless against all claims, suits, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including attorney fees, resulting from, arising out of, or relating to the acts or omissions of Contractor or its officers, employees, subcontractors, or agents under this contract. The State of Oregon and its agencies are intended beneficiaries of this obligation to indemnify.
9.2 SAIF shall provide prompt written notice to Contractor of any claim for which indemnification is expected.
9.3 Contractor’s obligation to indemnify under this section 9 survives termination of the contract.
10. Reserved

Page 6 of 15: RFP 518 - On-call Plumbing Services - Salem, Oregon
12. Termination
12.1 This contract may be terminated by mutual consent of both parties, or by either party upon 30 days' notice to the other party in writing and delivered as required under section 19.
12.2 Termination of this contract does not discharge either party from any obligations or liabilities already accrued prior to termination.
13. Controlling Law/Venue This contract is to be construed according to the laws of the State of Oregon without regard to principles of conflicts of law, and applicable federal law. Any action or suit brought by the parties relating to this contract must be brought and conducted exclusively in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Marion
County in Salem, Oregon, or if a claim must be brought in a federal forum, in the
United States District Court for the District of Oregon. Contractor hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of those courts, waives any objection to venue in those courts, and waives any claim that either forum is an inconvenient forum.
14. Force Majeure Neither party is responsible for delay or default caused by fire, riot, acts of God, war, terrorism, or other similar events beyond a party's reasonable control.
15. Severability If any term of this contract is determined, to any extent, to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties intend that the remainder of this contract not be affected, and each remaining term of this contract be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any invalid or unenforceable term is to be replaced by a mutually acceptable term that comes closest to the intention of the parties underlying the invalid or unenforceable term. If deletion or replacement of the invalid or unenforceable term materially changes this contract or causes completion of either party’s obligations to be unreasonable, either party may terminate this contract without further obligation or liability upon written notice to the other party.
16. Waiver The failure of either party to enforce any term of this contract does not constitute a waiver by that party of that or any other term.
17. Amendment This contract may not be supplemented, extended, or amended, in any manner whatsoever, except by written instrument signed by the parties.
18. No Third-Party Beneficiaries SAIF and Contractor are the only parties to this contract and the only persons who may enforce this contract.

Except as otherwise stated in this contract, the State of Oregon and its agencies are not intended beneficiaries of this contract.

CONTRACT FOR SERVICES
Part I. The Services.
(Insert: work to be done; schedule of work; criteria for acceptance by SAIF.)
The contents of this statement of work (“SOW”), inclusive of exhibits, constitutes the
“Services”. Contractor shall ensure its employees, agents, and representatives are familiar with the requirements contained herein.
Part II. Other Terms and Conditions.
(Special terms applicable to this contract.)
General [on-site] Facilities Requirements.
As a workers’ compensation carrier, SAIF knows that accidents can happen. If an accident that results in the release and/or exposure of OPIM (defined as blood or “other potentially infectious materials”) occur, Contractor shall immediately notify SAIF’s
Facilities Manager with details as to the location, date, and time of the release of OPIM, so that SAIF may take corrective actions to limit potential exposure to others.
Contractor’s failure to report such incidents may be construed as a breach of contract.
Contractor must ensure its staff is trained annually in the proper use of personal protective equipment and safe materials handling.
Contractor shall schedule all Services in advance with SAIF’s Facilities Manager and shall check-in and out at each visit with a member of SAIF’s Facilities staff. Any work that in the opinion of SAIF’s Facilities staff will disturb building users must be performed outside normal business hours, and scheduled in advance with SAIF’s Facilities
Manager.
Contractor shall protect surrounding structures and vehicles in work areas. Contractor is responsible for any damage to SAIF property or employees, or to the persons or property of any third-party caused by Contractor’s performance of the Services.
Contractor shall remove and properly dispose of all trash and debris generated by
Contractor’s performance of the Services.
Contractor shall minimize the operation of vehicles or gasoline-powered equipment
(e.g., saws, mowers, blowers) adjacent to a large intake vent located on the east side of the Parkway building next to the employee parking lot, and will not allow any such equipment to idle in this location in order to minimize the introduction of exhaust fumes into the building.
SAIF is a Tobacco-Free Workplace. SAIF campuses are entirely tobacco free, including all SAIF buildings, leased or owned, all parking garages and parking lots, and all areas where SAIF-sponsored off-site conferences and meetings are held.

SAIF’s after-hours on-call provider at 800.346.4544 x54 for any issues that arise during the Services, including, but not limited to, broken glass, an unlocked door, broken water pipes, or any other condition that would lead a reasonable person to believe such condition could be a hazard to human health or safety, or could be a sign of property, structural, or building damage.
Contractor shall supply Safety Data Sheets (“SDS”) to SAIF Facilities for all new or replacement materials Contractor proposes to use prior to using them. SAIF shall make available to Contractor all SDS for hazardous substances that SAIF has placed on or about the facilities in which Contractor may be working.

Page 12 of 15: RFP 518 - On-call Plumbing Services - Salem, Oregon must occur within three business days of the conviction. Failure of the Contractor to comply with the terms of this section shall be a material breach of the contract, and may result in the immediate termination of this, or any other, contract with SAIF.

Health and Safety Protocol
Esteemed SAIF vendors and business partners:
As COVID-19 continues to affect our daily lives, SAIF extends its deepest sympathies to anyone who the virus has impacted negatively, either directly or indirectly. Along these lines, as a leader in Oregon Workers’ Compensation Insurance, SAIF strives to protect the health and safety of our employees, policyholders, and business partners. SAIF is proud of the steps we have taken to protect one another and our customers from
COVID-19 exposure. Unfortunately, it remains a top priority that these efforts continue.
Following updated CDC recommendations on protection from respiratory viruses, it is paramount that SAIF vendors and business partners do not visit SAIF facilities if you or an employee are feeling ill, exhibiting symptoms from common respiratory illnesses similar to COVID-19, the flu, or RSV, or have recently tested positive for any of these viruses. Likewise, if you or one of your employees has tested positive for any of these viruses after a recent in-person visit to SAIF facilities or with SAIF employees, it is essential that you immediately notify SAIF of the positive result so that we can take the necessary precautions to avoid further spread. Thank you for your concern and cooperation. By working together, we can help diminish the spread of respiratory viruses and limit the deleterious effects of its associated symptoms and illness. Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns. SAIF greatly appreciates your services and cooperation.
