Section Reference Question (Bolded) and Answer
| 64 |
| Section 5.3 Ownership of Material |
| The new definition of a Vendor Intellectual Property expressly includes materials developed by the Contractor outside of the contract but used in the contract. Vendor acknowledges the States right to use of Vendor Intellectual Property consistent with and during the term of the contract, however, because the new definition may include Electronic Services (such as the Vendors proprietary payment processing software) to which the State will not receive a perpetual license after the term, Vendor requests the state modify this section as below to clarify the perpetual license is limited to the defined Portal Software consistent with the rights included in the License Grant upon Termination for Cause or Expiration. Vendor Requests change to Third Sentence of this section as follows: The necessary license rights to continue use in the Portal and to be allowed to modify the Portal Software shall be granted upon the completion of the full term of the contract, or upon the termination of the contract as a result of default by the contractor. |
Yes, please see revised Bid Solicitation Section 5.3, dated, 12/11/2023. Sections 5.3 B and D have been revised.
| 65 |
| Section 7.2.3 Limitation of Liability |
| The State accepted the limitation of 300% requested in line 46 of the Q&A but included $500k or 500% in the proposed redlines. Can this be adjusted to the greater of $300k or 300% to be more aligned with the state's response? |
The State response in line 46 of the Answers to Questions section of Bid Amendment #3 should have stated that the requested revision was not accepted as proposed, but was written. The State revised the Bid Solicitation in accordance with its needs, and did not accept the terms precisely as proposed. The applicable limitation of liability shall be as stated in Revised Bid Solicitation Section 7.2.3 dated 12/11/2023.
| 66 |
| Section 9 Glossary |
| The modified definition of a Vendor Intellectual Property includes an incomplete sentence at the end of the definition: To the extent Contractor develops materials other than Software under this contract which are used in the Portal, Contractor Vendor requests the deletion or clarification of this last phrase. |
The incomplete sentence has been deleted from the Bid Solicitation. Please see revised Bid Solicitation Section 9 Glossary definition for Vendor Intellectual Property.
