As permitted by Georgia law, this indemnification shall apply notwithstanding the fact that the Indemnities may be partially responsible for the situation giving rise to the claim. This indemnification shall apply notwithstanding the fact that a claim results in a monetary obligation that exceeds any contractual commitment. This indemnification shall not apply if the situation giving rise to the claim results solely from the negligence or willful acts of Indemnities.
This indemnification extends to the successors and assigns of the Supplier, and this indemnification and release survives the duration of his contract, the termination of this contract and the dissolution or, to the extent allowed by law, the bankruptcy of the Supplier.
Supplier shall, at its expense, be entitled to and shall have the duty to participate in the defense of any suit against the Indemnities. No settlement or compromise of any claim, loss or damage asserted against Indemnities shall be binding upon Indemnities unless expressly approved by the Indemnities.
13. If applicable, the successful bidder shall be required to furnish and pay for satisfactory Performance and Payment Bond(s) in the amount of 100% of the contract amount. These bonds are to be executed by a surety company licensed to do business in the State of Georgia.
14. This project will be awarded subject to the availability of funds.
15. MCS reserves the right in its sole and complete discretion to reject any or all proposals and to waive technicalities and informalities. MCS anticipates that the contract will be awarded to the most responsive and responsible bidder who provides the bid that is within the budget parameters for the project and whose bid response meets the requirements and criteria set forth in this RFP. In judging whether the bidder is responsible, MCS will consider, but is not limited to consideration of the following:
a. Whether the bidder or its principals are currently ineligible, debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from bidding or contracting by any State or Federal agency, department, or authority.
b. Whether the bidder or its principals have been terminated for cause or are currently in default on a public works contract.
16. MCS reserves the right to award these services in any way economically feasible or in the best interest for matching purposes.
17. MCS reserves the right to request clarification of information submitted and to request additional information of one or more proposers.
18. MCS reserves the right to require a financial statement and/or Dun and Bradstreet rating from any supplier(s) who submits a proposal. The supplier(s) must submit a current financial statement and/or Dun and Bradstreet rating within 48 hours after notification of such requirement.
19. MCS reserves the right to (i) reject any and all proposals in their entirety, for any reason, (ii) award the contract to the most qualified applicant as determined solely by MCS at its discretion and/or (iii) if the selected bidder does not execute a contract within 30 days after the award of the bid, or such lesser time as MCS may prescribe, MCS reserves the right to award the contract to another bidder and recover any damages to which it may be legally entitled from the initially selected bidder.
20. The acceptance of a bid may be subject to the execution of a definitive agreement between the parties. Any agreement or contract resulting from the acceptance of a bid shall be on forms either supplied by or approved by MCS and shall contain, at a minimum, applicable provisions of this RFP. MCS reserves the right to reject any vendor-proposed agreement that does not conform to this RFP and to any MCS requirements for agreements and contracts.
21. MCS assumes no responsibility or obligation to the bidders and will make no payment for any costs associated with the preparation or submission of a bid.
22. All proposals submitted become the property of MCS.
23. MCS standard terms for payment will be Net 30 days from the date of delivery of goods or services, or date of receipt of correct invoice, whichever is later. All payments will be made in accordance with MCS’s policies and procedures. MCS does not pay interest, late fees or attorneys’ fees.
24. DEBARRED, SUSPENDED, AND INELIGIBLE STATUS. Supplier certifies that the supplier and/or any of its subcontractors (if applicable) have not been debarred, suspended, or declared ineligible by an agency of the State of Georgia or as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 48 C.F.R. Ch. 1 Subpart 9.4. Supplier will immediately notify MCS in writing if supplier is debarred by the State of Georgia or placed on a Consolidated List of Debarred, Suspended, and Ineligible Contractors by a federal entity. C.F.R. Section 180.300 requires that when MCS enters a covered transaction with an entity at a lower tier, the School District must verify that the entity is not suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded. “Covered transactions” include those procurement contracts for goods and services awarded under a grant or cooperative agreement that are expected to equal or exceeded $25,000. Furthermore, grantees and sub-grantees must not make any award or permit any award at any tier to any party which is debarred or suspended or is otherwise excluded. By signing this contract, you are affirming that neither you, the Supplier, nor any principal of the Supplier are at the date of your signature suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded.
25. NON-COLLUSION. The supplier, by affixing its signature to this solicitation, certifies that that this proposal is made without prior understanding, agreement or connection with any corporation, firm or person submitting a proposal for the same materials, supplies, or equipment, and is in all respect fair and without collusion or fraud. The supplier understands that collusive bidding is a violation of State and Federal law and can result in fines, prison sentences, and civil damage awards.
26. OBLIGATION TO MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY. Supplier acknowledges that some material and information which may come into its possession or knowledge in connection with the RFP, or the performance hereof, may consist of confidential and private information of MCS, its students, or employees, the disclosure of which to or use by third parties may be damaging or in violation of applicable law. Supplier therefore agrees to hold such material and information in strictest confidence, not to make use thereof other than as is necessary for performance of this contract, and not to release or disclose any information to any other party except as may be required by law. Supplier hereby expressly agrees to immediately remove any subcontractor or any of Supplier’s employees from performing any work in connection with this contract upon MCS giving notice to Supplier that MCS reasonably believes such person has failed to meet the confidentiality obligations or standards of this contract. Any employee or subcontractor so removed shall be replaced as provided under the staffing requirements of this contract.
Confidential information is educational records, proprietary information, a trade secret, copyrighted material, or documents otherwise not subject to disclosure or use, as defined under O.C.G.A. § 50-18-72, O.C.G.A. § 10-1-760, 34 CFR §99.31, 20 U.S.C. §1232 (g), 45 CFR § 741.6(c)(3), 45 CFR §84.14(d) and 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400-1491. Supplier acknowledges that confidential information includes, but is not limited to, employee data, educational records, health records, physician and provider notes, medical bills, claims and other written information of a personal nature, which is to be safeguarded to ensure that it is not improperly disclosed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this agreement is subject to the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 et seq.
27. RECORDS RETENTION - The supplier must retain all books, records, and documents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and procedures and which sufficiently and properly document and calculate all charges billed to MCS throughout the term of the Contract for a period of at least five (5) years following the date of final payment or completion of any required audit, whichever is later. Records to be maintained include both financial records and service records.
28. TERMINATION
a. MCS reserves the right to terminate the contractual relationship with Supplier at any time without cause and without penalty on 30 days’ written notice to Supplier. MCS shall pay supplier for the work performed prior to the date of notice of termination.
Supplier shall not be paid for any work performed or incurred after the receipt of the notice of termination, nor for costs incurred by its suppliers. In addition, MCS may terminate the contract with Supplier in the event Supplier breaches any of its duties and obligations under this contract and Supplier fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receiving notice from MCS specifying the breach.
b. The rights and remedies of MCS as stated above shall not be exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under the contract.
c. To terminate the agreement pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 20-2-506, MCS must give notice to the supplier at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement. Further and pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 20-2-506, in the event appropriated funds are determined no longer to exist or to be insufficient for purposes of fulfilling MCS’ obligations hereunder, MCS may terminate this Agreement by providing thirty (30) days written notice of termination to the supplier. Notice of termination shall include a certification by MCS of the unavailability or insufficiency of funding, and such certification shall constitute an agreement by MCS not to replace the services covered hereunder in whole or in part with any service obtained from a provider other than the supplier before the earlier of the end of the calendar year following the year in which the notification of such certification is received by the supplier or the date this Agreement expires on its own terms, whichever first occurs.
MCS shall be obligated for payments to the supplier through the date of termination.
d. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute cause for MCS to declare the Supplier in default of its obligations under the contract:
i. The Supplier fails to deliver or has delivered nonconforming goods or services or fails to perform, to MCS’ satisfaction, any material requirement of the contract or is in violation of a material provision of the contract, including, but without limitation, the express warranties made by the Supplier.
ii. MCS determines that satisfactory performance of the contract is substantially endangered or that a default is likely to occur.
iii. The Supplier fails to make substantial and timely progress toward performance of the contract.
iv. The Supplier becomes subject to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding under federal or state law to the extent allowed by applicable federal or state law including bankruptcy laws; the Supplier terminates or suspends its business;
or MCS reasonably believes that the Supplier has become insolvent or unable to pay its obligations as they accrue consistent with applicable federal or state law.
v. The Supplier has failed to comply with applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, ordinances, regulations and orders when performing within the scope of the contract.
29. TERM: RENEWAL OPTIONS - Unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 28 above, the initial term of this Agreement will be for a period of one (1) year. Thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed by MCS as provided in Section 1 of the Additional Conditions.
30. NO ASSIGNMENT, DELEGATION, OR SUBCONTRACT WITHOUT MCS’ CONSENT - Except as may be specifically permitted by the RFP, Supplier shall not delegate, subcontract, assign or otherwise permit anyone other than Supplier personnel to perform any of the work and/or provide any of the services required of Supplier under this Contract, or assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of MCS, which consent may be withheld by MCS in its sole discretion. No subcontract, which Supplier enters with respect to the performance of work and/or provision of services under this Contract, shall in any way relieve Supplier of any responsibility for any performance or obligation required of it by this Contract. Supplier hereby accepts responsibility for ensuring that all subcontractors who perform any of the services under this Contract also comply with the terms and conditions of this Contract; and Supplier expressly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless MCS from all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, and expenses which result from any failure by any such subcontractor to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this Contract. Supplier shall give MCS immediate notice in writing by registered or certified mail of any claim, action or suit filed against Supplier by any subcontractor, and prompt notice of any claim made against Supplier or any subcontractor, which may result in litigation, related in any way to this Contract.
Supplier must notify MCS of all subcontractors used to fulfill this contract, including those contracted by their agents (such as delivery services). MCS reserves the right to require that a subcontractor be removed from the contract.
