About this file
This is a Commonwealth of Massachusetts Standard Contract Form issued jointly by the Office of the Comptroller, the Executive Office for Administration and Finance, and the Operational Services Division for use by all state departments when another prescribed form is not required. The form serves as the default template for statewide contracts and is applicable to the Massachusetts College of Art and Design's procurement of Web Development & Support Services for MassArt.edu. The document establishes the framework for either new contracts or contract amendments and includes provisions for various procurement types including statewide contracts, emergency contracts, collective purchases, and interim contracts. Contract performance obligations may commence on the effective date (the latest date of execution by authorized signatories), on a specified later date, or retroactively to a prior date with appropriate justification and documentation of pre-effective date obligations.
The compensation structure allows departments to select between rate contracts with no maximum obligation or maximum obligation contracts with specified total caps for the contract duration. The Commonwealth issues payments through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) at a standard 45-day cycle from invoice receipt, though contractors may request accelerated payments by identifying prompt payment discounts (PPD) at rates of 10, 15, 20, or 30 days. The contract incorporates by reference the Standard Contract Form Instructions and Contractor Certifications, applicable Commonwealth Terms and Conditions (General, Human and Social Services, or Information Technology), and provisions from 815 CMR 2.00 regarding department procurement. The Supplier Diversity Program (SDP) applies to applicable contracts, and all contractor certifications are made under the pains and penalties of perjury. The contract hierarchy of precedence prioritizes negotiated terms, the Commonwealth Terms and Conditions, the Standard Contract Form, supporting instructions and certifications, and the solicitation documents.
