00500-SAMPLE CONTRACT

THIS AGREEMENT, made and executed in FOUR (4) original copies on this ________day of ____________ in the year 20_____ by and between:

Desoto Parish School Board (Hereinafter called OWNER) and

(hereinafter called CONTRACTOR)

OWNER and CONTRACTOR, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

Article 1 WORK.

CONTRACTOR shall complete all Work as specified or indicated in the Contract Documents in conjunction with:

NDHS Wrestling Building

Article 2 ARCHITECT.

The Drawings have been prepared by Didier Architecture: Derryl Didier Architect and Associates, LLC, 17531 Old Jefferson Hwy., Ste. C, Prairieville, LA 70769, (225)-744-0008, who is hereinafter called ARCHITECT and who is to act as OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE, assume all duties and responsibilities and have the rights and authority assigned to ARCHITECT in the Contract Documents in connection with completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

Article 3 CONTRACT TIME.

3.1 The Work will be substantially completed within 180 calendar days from the date when the Contract Time commences to run as provided in paragraph 2.3 General Conditions.

3.2 Project Schedule. CONTRACTOR shall submit and strictly adhere to a project construction schedule throughout the allocated contract and associated time frame. See Sections 2.05, 2.06, and 2.07 on pages 00700-07. CONTRACTOR is aware that OWNER may have a representative at each site where Work is performed and that CONTRACTOR needs to coordinate with the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE where Work on the CONTRACT will be performed. CONTRACTOR will coordinate with the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE by strictly following the project construction schedule or Progress Schedule. OWNER recognizes and understands that changes in project construction schedule or Progress Schedule may become necessary during the course of the project. However, in the event of any such change, the CONTRACTOR shall notify the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE in writing (via mail or email) of a proposed change. Said written notice shall be provided at least 12 hours prior to the revised

**Sample Contract Only – Final contract subject to final negotiations and special conditions that may arise for

Division 0, Section 00500. Sample Contract Page 2 of 5 construction activity. Said notice shall be provided by emailing notice of change to derryl@didierarch.com, jsimpson@simpsonsportseng.com and dsimpson@simpsonsportseng.com. Should the CONTRACTOR fail to timely notify the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE of such change, the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE will document the CONTRACTOR’S failure to notify of the change in work and SHALL assess stipulated damages as follows. For EACH failure to notify the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE of any change in the project construction schedule or Progress Schedule, the CONTRACTOR AGREES TO PAY $100.00 per failure to notify the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE.

CONTRACTOR agrees that these stipulated damages reflect the lost time, manpower, and mileage incurred by OWNER attempting to locate the CONTRACTOR where a change in schedule occurs and the required notice was not provided. CONTRACTOR further agrees that said amount shall be paid by directly reducing the amount of monthly invoices/pay applications by the amount of penalties issued. The Penalty fees shall be itemized on monthly invoices.

3.3 Liquidated Damages. OWNER and CONTRACTOR recognize that time is of the essence of this Agreement and the OWNER will suffer financial loss if the Work is not completed within the times specified in paragraph 3.1 above, plus any extensions thereof allowed in accordance with Article 12 of General Conditions. There are delays, expenses and difficulties involved in proving in a legal arbitration proceeding the actual loss suffered by OWNER if the Work is not completed on time. Accordingly, instead of requiring proof, OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty) CONTRACTOR shall pay OWNER the amount of Two Hundred Fifty ($250.00) Dollars for each day that expires after the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for Substantial Completion until the Work is substantially complete.

Article 4 CONTRACT PRICE.

4.1 OWNER shall pay CONTRACTOR for completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents in current funds the sum of (subject to adjustment as provided in the Contract Documents):

5.3 Fuel or Asphalt/Concrete Adjustments. There shall be NO adjustments for prices or costs of any fuel or asphalt/concrete on this project, arising out of the work on this project/contract, or arising out of this contract. Further, the CONTRACTOR hereby waives any price adjustment for fuel or asphalt/concrete or the ability or right to request any price adjustment for fuel or asphalt/concrete. Particularly, the Louisiana DOTD provisions (or any such or similar provisions by any other third party) pertaining to or related to fuel or asphalt/concrete adjustments are not part of this contract, are not incorporated by reference or otherwise in this Contract, and shall not apply in any form or fashion to the contract. Any language in this Contract which implies that the CONTRACTOR may obtain an adjustment in price for fuel or asphalt/concrete is hereby to be interpreted that CONTRACTOR shall not receive any such adjustment. CONTRACTOR shall not assert that any language in the CONTRACT creates any vagueness or ambiguity in the CONTRACT entitling CONTRACTOR to price adjustments for fuel or asphalt/concrete. CONTRACTOR hereby waives any right or ability to request any price adjustment for fuel or asphalt/concrete and CONTRACTOR shall not submit any request for any change in price for fuel or asphalt/concrete adjustments to the OWNER in any form.
