Project Delivery Order Procedures The TIPS Member having approved and signed an interlocal agreement, or other TIPS Membership document, may make a request of the awarded vendor under this Agreement when the TIPS Member has services that need to be undertaken. Notification may occur via phone, the web, email, fax, or in person. Upon notification of a pending request, the awarded vendor shall make contact with the TIPS Member as soon as possible, but must make contact with the TIPS Member within two working days. Scheduling of Projects Scheduling of projects (if applicable) may be accomplished when the TIPS Member issues a Purchase Order and/or an Agreement or Contract that will serve as “the notice to proceed” as agreed by the Vendor and the TIPS Member. The period for the delivery order will include the mobilization, materials purchase, installation and delivery, design, weather, and site cleanup and inspection. No additional claims may be made for delays as a result of these items. When the tasks have been completed the awarded vendor shall notify the client and have the TIPS Member or a designated representative of the TIPS Member inspect the work for acceptance under the scope and terms in the Purchase Order and/or Agreement or Contract. The TIPS Member will issue in writing any corrective actions that are required. Upon completion of these items, the TIPS Member will issue a completion notice and final payment will be issued per the contractual requirements of the project with the TIPS Member. Any Construction contract prepared by the TIPS Member’s Legal Counsel may alter the terms of this subsection, “Scheduling of Projects”.
Procurement procedures 11.1 The Recipient must secure the best value for money and shall act in a fair, open and non-discriminatory manner in all purchases of goods and services.
Subcontract Procedures Without relieving it of, or in any way limiting, its obligations to NYSERDA under this Agreement, the Contractor may enter into Subcontracts for the performance of Work or for the purchase of materials or equipment. Prior to beginning any Work, Contractor shall notify the NYSERDA Project Manager of all subcontractors performing work under the Agreement, as well as all changes in subcontractors throughout the term of the Agreement. Except for a subcontractor or supplier specified in a team arrangement with the Contractor in the Contractor’s original proposal, and except for any subcontract or order for equipment, supplies or materials from a single subcontractor or supplier totaling less than $50,000, the Contractor shall select all subcontractors or suppliers through a process of competitive bidding or multi-source price review. A team arrangement is one where a subcontractor or supplier specified in the Contractor’s proposal is performing a substantial portion of the Work and is making a substantial contribution to the management and/or design of the Project. In the event that a competitive bidding or multi-source price review is not feasible, the Contractor shall document an explanation for, and justification of, a sole source selection. The Contractor shall document the process by which a subcontractor or supplier is selected by making a record summarizing the nature and scope of the work, equipment, supplies or materials sought, the name of each person or organization submitting, or requested to submit, a bid or proposal, the price or fee bid, and the basis for selection of the subcontractor or supplier. An explanation for, and justification of, a sole source selection must identify why the work, equipment, supplies or materials involved are obtainable from or require a subcontractor with unique or exceptionally scarce qualifications or experience, specialized equipment, or facilities not readily available from other sources, or patents, copyrights, or proprietary data. All Subcontracts shall contain provisions comparable to those set forth in this Agreement applicable to a subcontractor or supplier, and those set forth in Exhibit C to the extent required by law, and all other provisions now or hereafter required by law to be contained therein. Each Subcontract shall make express reference to this Agreement, and shall state that in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any Subcontract and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control as between Subcontractor and Contractor. For each Subcontract valued at $100,000 or more, the Contractor shall obtain and maintain, pursuant to Section 4.05, a completed Vendor Assurance of No Conflict of Interest or Detrimental Effect form from such Subcontractor prior to the execution of the Subcontract. Such form shall be made available to the Contractor by NYSERDA. Each such Subcontract shall contain a provision whereby the Subcontractor warrants and guarantees that there is and shall be no actual or potential conflict of interest that could prevent the Subcontractor’s satisfactory or ethical performance of duties required to be performed pursuant to the terms of the Subcontract and that the Subcontractor shall have a duty to notify NYSERDA immediately of any actual or potential conflicts of interest. If this Agreement includes a provision requiring Contractor to make Payments to NYSERDA for the Sale or Licensing of a Product, each Subcontract shall include the provisions of Section 8.02, suitably modified to identify the parties. The Contractor shall submit to NYSERDA’s Contract Administrator for review and written approval any subcontract(s) specified in the Statement of Work as requiring NYSERDA approval, including any replacements thereof.
