The contract term is one year with options for two additional one-year renewals subject to mutual agreement sixty days prior to expiration. Pricing must provide separate line items for standard hourly labor, overtime, holiday, emergency/after-hours, and 24/7/365 availability rates, plus a parts markup percentage for repairs and drive service. Chemical costs are excluded from base pricing but may be quoted separately.
