3.5. FIXED PRICE WITH ECONOMIC ADJUSTMENT

The contract prices for the items within the market basket will remain firm for the first 12 months duration of the contract. Thereafter, the Contractor may submit a request to increase their price(s) to be effective 30 calendar days after acceptance by DAS. No price adjustment will be permitted prior to the effective date of the increase received by the Contractor from its suppliers, or on purchase orders that are already being processed, or on purchase orders that have been filled and are awaiting shipment. If the Contractor receives orders requiring quarterly delivery, the increase will apply to all deliveries made after the effective date of the price increase.

The price increase must be supported by a general price increase in the cost, due to increases in the cost of raw materials, labor, freight, Workers' Compensation and/or Unemployment Insurance, etc. Detailed documentation, to include a comparison list of the contract items and proposed price increases, must be submitted to support the requested increase. Supportive documentation should include, but is not limited to:

copies of the old and the current price lists or similar documents which indicate the original base cost of the product to the Contractor and the corresponding increase, and/or copies of correspondence sent by the Contractor's supplier on the supplier's letterhead, which contain the above price information and explains the source of the increase in such areas as raw materials, freight, fuel or labor, etc.

https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-2923.126 https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-2923.126 https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-2923.126

Should there be a decrease in the cost of the finished product due to a general decline in the market or some other factor, the Contractor is responsible to notify DAS immediately. The price decrease adjustment will be incorporated into the contract and will be effective on all purchase orders issued after the effective date of the decrease. If the price decrease is a temporary decrease, such should be noted on the invoice. In the event that the temporary decrease is revoked, the contract pricing will be returned to the pricing in effect prior to the temporary decrease. For quarterly deliveries, any decrease will be applied to deliveries made after the effective date of the decrease.
