6.D. - Page 21 of 70 purchasing agreements allow Participating Agencies to make purchases at the Public Procurement Authority's accepted proposal price, terms and conditions, provided that the Participating Agency has satisfied all of its local and state cooperative procurement requirements. By submitting a proposal, the Proposer(s) agrees to make the same proposal terms and price, exclusive of any possible rebates, incentives, freight and transportation fees, available to other Participating Agencies. The Public Procurement Authority and NPPGov will not incur any direct liability with respect to specifications, delivery, payment, or any other aspect of purchases by such Participating Agencies or nonprofit institutions. A true and correct copy of the Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement is attached hereto as "ATTACHMENT A". The successful Proposer must work directly with the Participating Agencies concerning the placement of orders, disputes, invoicing and payment. The Public Procurement Authority and NPPGov shall not be held liable for any costs or damages incurred by or as a result of the actions of the Vendor or any Participating Agency. Successful Proposers must comply with the state and local laws, rules and regulations in each state and locality where the product or service is provided. 1.3.2 Each Participating Agency shall execute a Participating Agency Endorsement and Authorization included in the Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement. While the terms of the Master Price Agreement shall govern the general pricing terms, each Participating Agency may request modification of the Master Price Agreement in accordance with each Participating Agency's state and/or local purchasing laws, rules, regulations and procedures. Each Participating Agency may, at its discretion, and upon written agreement by the Participating Agency and Successful Proposer, request additional legal and procedural provisions not included herein that the successful Proposer must adhere to if it wishes to conduct business with said Participating Agency using the Master Price Agreement. 1.3.3 NPPGov, FireRescue GPO and Public Safety GPO provide vendor exposure and marketing support for the successful Proposer's products and services. Successful Proposers servicing the awarded contract to NPPGov members shall pay a Contract Administration Fee representing 1% percent of actual net sales under the Master Price Agreement as established in the NPPGov Vendor Administration Agreement (available upon request). A portion of the I% fee is paid to the Western Fire Chiefs association pursuant to agreements with NPPGov, Fire Rescue GPO, and Public Safety GPO. Western Fire Chiefs Association also administers the solicitation and bidding processes for the PPA pursuant to a separate Administration Agreement at no cost to the PPA or its members. 1.4 MULTIPLE AWARDS Multiple awards may be granted to meet the requirements of this Solicitation provided that such awards are differentiated by product make and model, service, and/or distribution regions and capabilities of the successful Proposers. Specifically, the Public Procurement Authority will award separate contracts to Proposers in order to cover all local and national geographical markets, electronic purchasing capabilities, and products and services identified in this Request for Proposal, as well as the diverse and large number of Participating Agencies. The award of multiple contracts is to be determined upon receipt and review of all proposals, and based upon the general criteria provided herein. The Public Procurement Authority may solicit proposals from local qualified companies with or without a national presence provided that the successful Proposer is able to provide the Public Procurement Authority with the products and services requested. Multiple awards will ensure fulfillment of current and future requirements of the diverse and large number of Participating Agencies. In the event a local Proposer with no national distribution capabilities best meets the proposal selection criteria, multiple local and nationwide responsive proposals may be awarded simultaneously in the best interests of local commerce, compliance with local laws, and the Participating Agencies nationwide. 413
