DISCLAIMER. This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) the terms and conditions set within are not binding and therefore the Government reserves the right to amend the terms up until Purchase Order/Offer issuance. A quotation submitted in response is not an offer and, consequently, cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Therefore, issuance by the Government of an order in response to a supplier’s quotation does not establish a contract. The order is an offer by the Government to the supplier to buy certain supplies or services upon specified terms and conditions. A contract is established when the supplier accepts the offer.
