Task Orders. All orders issued hereunder are subject to the terms and conditions of this contract. The contract shall control in the event of conflict with any order.

Task Orders. All Services must be authorized by a written Task Order. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the City is under no obligation to issue any Task Orders. As needed, upon the written approval of the Commissioner, the Department will issue a TOR specifically referencing this Contract, identifying the project, and setting forth the Services to be performed pursuant to a Task Order and a desired completion date. Contractor must respond by submitting a Task Order Proposal which must include: a cover letter, understanding and approach, project schedule, budget, fee, detailed cost breakdown in such detail as required for the specific task, documentation required to substantiate compliance with MBE/WBE or DBE participation requirements as applicable, a list of key personnel, and any other required information specified in the TOR, all of which must conform to the terms of the TOR and the terms and conditions of this Contract.

Any Services to be provided by Consultant shall only be performed pursuant to Task Orders that provide a detailed description of either the services or tasks to be performed and the personnel to be provided, the time frame for the work to be performed, the not to exceed amount to be charged, and any estimated expenses. 5.2. All personnel to be assigned to work under this Contract shall be authorized through the use of a written Task Order, and compensated according to the guidelines established herein for the services provided. 5.3. Consultant shall provide a complete detailed proposal for each Task Order.

Task Orders. Task Orders shall be in a format acceptable to County and approved in writing by the PM prior to the A-E proceeding with the Services. Task Orders shall only be issued for specific deliverables, and not for general or administrative work such as preparation/negotiation of task order proposals, amendments, invoices, accounting reports, progress reports, or other invoice backup; internal project management activities (i.e. earned value analysis); processing subcontractor invoices; discussions internally or with County regarding said items, contract terms, or billing practices; or internal budget/expenditure review. A- E shall provide the PM with a written proposal for each proposed Task Order. County and A-E will initially negotiate Task Order proposals on a lump sum basis. Prior to approval of the Task Order, A-E shall provide a detailed breakdown of the labor and materials costs that are the basis of the A-E’s proposal. The breakdown shall be in accordance with the fee schedules listed in Exhibit C. Payments shall be made for each deliverable milestone reached and progress payments made on a percent-completion basis not to exceed that amount agreed to for each deliverable milestone. As an aggregate Agreement awarded to more than one A-E firm, County may consider the lump sum proposal of each A-E prior to assigning a Task to a particular firm. If no agreement can be reached between County and any A-E on a lump sum basis, then A-E’s compensation may be determined on a time-and-materials basis according to the rates set forth in Exhibit C. In the event that A-E believes that unforeseen circumstances or a request or decision by the County might change the scope of a Task Order, or increase the cost of or extend the delivery date of that Task Order, A-E shall immediately notify the County of such change. If A-E does not notify the County within seven (7) calendar days of discovery of such a circumstance, request, or decision, A-E shall be liable for any resulting additional cost or extension of delivery date. Amendments to Task Orders may be considered when changes exceed the Task Order amount and: (i) there is a major change in the Scope of Services; (ii) the change causes a major delay; and/or (iii) the change renders the Contract fee structure inappropriate.
