Warden service snowmobiles

The State of Maine Division of Purchases is soliciting bids for Warden Service snowmobiles with proposals due February 11, 2009.

The source material does not specify quantity, equipment specifications, contract value, contract term, place of performance, evaluation criteria, or procurement timeline details beyond the proposal due date. The attached General Terms and Conditions establish standard boilerplate for Maine purchase orders — warranty provisions requiring conformance to specifications and freedom from defects for one year from final acceptance; contractor responsibility for remedying defects; compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws; the Division's right to inspect, reject, or require rework at contractor expense; and termination rights for failure to meet delivery schedules or perform contract provisions. Invoicing must reference the purchase order number. The Division reserves the right to unilaterally alter, increase, decrease, or eliminate work with corresponding adjustments to contract amounts. The contractor must indemnify the state from claims arising from performance and warrant that no improper solicitation or collusion occurred in obtaining the contract. The agreement is governed by Maine law.
