18 Section VIII. Billing Procedures and Tracking Information A. Tracking Information 1. Because a large percentage of work performed by Facilities Services is associated with building systems and structures, baseline services are tracked by building rather than by individual department. Facilities Services staff will record labor and material costs for each activity performed in a building, and these costs are then reflected in the report sent quarterly to the Contractor and the Animal Control Manager, San Mateo County Health. Contractor will be charged for services rendered on an ongoing basis and not based on a predetermined amount. 2. The cost for additional services is tracked by work authorization. Prior to receiving a service, the Contractor will set aside a dollar amount equal to the estimated cost for that service. As services are rendered and costs are incurred, the invoices will be sent to County Health System Animal Control Manager and then to the Contractor. The cost will be taken out of animal control Contract Funds by the Contractor, who will pay the invoice within 30 calendar days or the County will deduct the overdue amount from Contractor's next payment. 3. If there ls a dispute raised by Contractor, within three business days of receipt of the Invoice, regarding the accuracy of charges in an invoice, the parties shall use best efforts to resolve the dispute expeditiously. If while using best efforts, the parties have not resolved the dispute within 30 calendar days, Contractor shall not be in breach if the parties agree that they are working in good faith to resolve the dispute. B. Building Manuals, Drawings, Training In preparation for this, Contractor is to receive copies of all warranties, as-builts, operating and maintenance materials, and is to participate in all trainings provided by the Shelter's general contractor to DPW for the systems that Contractor will be maintaining. The intent is to have Contractor be informed as much as possible to more efficiently assist DPW in its role as well as manage its own responsibilities.
