The contract may be renewed annually by written agreement, up to a total contract cost of $25,000 across the original agreement and any subsequent renewals, or for a total time period of five years from the effective date, whichever occurs sooner. Price escalation requests may be considered if material or labor costs significantly increase, but such increases cannot exceed industry-specific price index increases or Consumer Price Index and are capped at 5% of annual contract cost. The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analysis on all bids and to cancel contracts for convenience with as much notice as practicable. All agreements are governed by Alabama law with sole venue in Montgomery, Alabama.
