Clauses Extension Overrun 3 Performance Bid.doc

This is a contract extension and performance evaluation document related to a Maine state purchasing opportunity for Mt. Battie/Camden Hills State Park materials. The document outlines the State Purchasing Director's authority to extend the contract period beyond the initial expiration date with contractor consent, with a maximum total contract period not to exceed three years. The contract allows for an overrun not to exceed 3% of the bid amount. Vendor past performance is identified as a factor that may influence contract award decisions.

The document includes a recycled content preference clause applicable to paper and paper product bids. Bids offering paper or paper products containing a minimum of 30% post-consumer recycled material that are within 10% of the lowest compliant bid may receive up to a 10% price preference. Contractors electing to bid recycled paper products must clearly indicate this status and disclose the specific recycled content percentage in the comments section of their solicitation response to be considered for this preference.
