Common use of RFO Process Initiation Clause in Contracts

RFO Process Initiation. If a JBE desires IT consultant for a project, the JBE will develop an RFO (discussed below in Section 2.2.B). The JBE will send the RFO, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4, Request For Offer, to selected master agreement holders, which may include Contractor. At its reasonable discretion, and without having to amend the Agreement, the Establishing JBE reserves the right to update Exhibit 4, Request For Offer, from time to time. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, RFOs may only be sent to eligible Contractors that are master agreement holders for the Region in which the JBE is located, and for the Classification(s) that the JBE is seeking. For example, a JBE located in the Southern Region may only submit RFOs to a master agreement holder located in the Bay Region if that holder is also a master agreement holder for the Southern Region, and for the Classification(s) set forth in the RFO. The JBE, in accordance with user instructions provided to it by the Judicial Council, will determine the number of master agreement holders and which master agreement holders may be requested to propose an offer in response to the RFO. The JBE will submit RFOs and enter into Participating Addendums within dollar amount maximums set forth in the user instructions provided to it by the Judicial Council. The Contractor’s response to an RFO shall constitute a formal offer to provide key personnel as specified in the RFO.
