SPECIFICATIONS

I. Scope of Work Supplier to provide duty gear components to the Departments of Correction, Police Services, and the Sheriff’s Office as required during the contract. Contract shall begin upon award for a one-year period with four (4) additional one-year options to renew.

II. Ordering

1. Orders will be placed by departments on an “as needed” basis; therefore, orders are to be filled regardless of quantity and/or dollar amount

2. Quantities are approximate annual quantities.

3. All orders to be delivered or picked up will require a purchase order number. Orders provided without a purchase order number are not considered to be authorized purchases and may be subject to non-payment of invoice.

4. A packing slip must accompany all shipments.

5. A Gwinnett County representative will notify supplier of all shipments received in error. Upon notification, supplier must issue Return Merchandise Authorization to Gwinnett County, and shipment shall be returned at no charge to Gwinnett County.

Each sample must be labeled with supplier’s name, item number as indicated on the Bid Schedule, and bid number. All products must be identified by brand (manufacturer) and code number. Samples requested but not supplied may result in rejection of that item as non-responsive.

IV. Sole Source products Substitutes will NOT be accepted for line items where a manufacturer is already listed in the “Manuf. & No.” column of the bid schedule. These items have been approved as ‘sole source’ after completing a rigorous approval process.
