Contract Guarantee Minimum.docx

This is a Contract Guarantee Minimum/Maximum Aggregate Value document that outlines the financial terms for the Fort Bayard National Cemetery Grounds Maintenance contract. The guaranteed minimum amount for the life of the contract is $10,000.00, while the maximum aggregate value, inclusive of five one-year ordering periods, shall not exceed $6,000,000.00. Importantly, the Government does not guarantee that it will place orders exceeding the guaranteed minimum amount, meaning there is no obligation to utilize the full contract ceiling.
