Purchase Order Terms and Conditions 1. Offer/Acceptance. If this purchase order (“PO”) refers to your bid or proposal, then this PO is an ACCEPTANCE of your OFFER TO SELL in accordance with the terms and conditions of the IFB/RFP, as stated in your bid. If no bid or proposal is referenced, this PO is an OFFER TO BUY, subject to your acceptance, which must be demonstrated by either your performance of this PO or by a formal acknowledgment in writing. Any COUNTER-OFFER TO SELL is automatically construed as a CANCELLATION of this PO unless a change order is issued accepting a counter-offer. In the event vendor form(s) or part(s) of forms are included in, or as an attachment to, any bid, proposal, offer, acknowledgment, or otherwise, vendor agrees that, in the event of inconsistencies or contradictions, the terms and conditions of the solicitation document and this PO shall supersede and control over those contained in vendor’s form(s) regardless of any statement to the contrary in such form(s). Unless the purchasing agent specifically agrees in writing through overt reference or other express written indication of assent, terms and conditions on vendor forms regarding choice of law, venue, warranty disclaimer or exclusion, indemnification or limitation of liability shall be of no effect.

2. Safety Information. All chemicals, equipment and materials proposed and/or used in the performance of this PO must conform to the standards required by the William-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Bidders must furnish all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for any regulated chemicals, equipment or hazardous materials at the time of delivery.

3. Changes. Vendor agrees to furnish products and/or services in strict accordance with the specifications, and at the price set forth for each item. Nothing in this PO may be added to, modified, superseded or otherwise altered except in writing signed by an authorized representative of the agency purchasing office and acknowledged by vendor. Each shipment received or service performed shall be only upon the terms contained in this PO, notwithstanding any terms contained in any invoice or other act of vendor other than acknowledgment of a written change order to this PO.

4. Delivery. Unless otherwise specified in the solicitation or in this PO, delivery shall be FOB destination. In its acceptance of any quotation offer, the agency is relying on the promised delivery date, installation, or service performance as material and basic to its acceptance. In the event of vendor’s failure to deliver or perform as and when promised, the agency reserves the right to cancel its order, or any part thereof, without prejudice to its other rights, and vendor agrees that the agency may return all or part of any shipment so made, and may charge vendor with any loss or expense sustained as a result of such failure to deliver or perform as promised. Time is of the essence.

5. Rights in Data, Documents, Computer Software or Other Intellectual Property. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any software, research, reports, studies, data, photographs, negatives or other documents, drawings or materials delivered by vendor in the performance of its obligations under this PO shall be the exclusive property of the State. The ownership rights described herein shall include, but not be limited to, the right to copy, publish, display, transfer, prepare derivative works, or otherwise use the works.

6. Quality. The State will be the sole judge in determining “equals” with regard to quality, price and performance. All products delivered shall be newly manufactured and of the manufacturer’s current model, unless otherwise specified.

7. Warranties. All provisions and remedies of the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) relating to both implied and expressed warranties are herewith referred to and made a part hereof and are in addition to any warranties stipulated in the specifications.

8. Inspection and Acceptance. Final acceptance is dependent upon completion of all applicable inspection procedures. Should the products or services fail to meet any inspection requirements, the agency may exercise all of its rights, including those provided in the UCC. The agency reserves the right to inspect services provided under this PO at all reasonable times and places. "Services" as used in this clause includes services performed or tangible material produced or delivered in the performance of services. If any of the services do not conform with PO requirements, the agency may require vendor to perform the services again in conformity with PO requirements, with no additional payment. When defects in the quality or quantity of service cannot be corrected by re-performance, the agency may (i) require vendor to take necessary action to ensure that the future performance conforms to PO requirements and (ii) equitably reduce the payment due vendor to reflect the reduced value of the services performed. These remedies in no way limit the remedies available to the agency in the termination provisions of this PO, or remedies otherwise available at law or in equity.

9. Cash Discount. The cash discount period will start from date of receipt of acceptable invoice, or from date of receipt of acceptable products/services at the specified destination by an authorized agency representative, whichever is later.

10. Taxes. The State agency, as purchaser, is exempt from all federal excise taxes under Chapter 32 of the Internal Revenue Code [No. 84-730123K] and from all State and local government use taxes [CRS 39-26-14(a) and 203, as amended]. Tax exempt numbers for the specific agency may be found elsewhere in this PO. Vendor is hereby notified that when materials are purchased for the benefit of the State, such exemptions apply except that in certain political subdivisions (e.g., City of Denver) vendor may be required to pay sales or use taxes even though the ultimate product or service is provided to the State. These sales or use taxes will not be reimbursed by the State.

11. Prompt Payment. State law and regulations provide that vendors will be paid within 45 days after receipt of products or services and a correct notice of amount due, unless otherwise agreed to by contract or special conditions of the PO. A State liability not paid within 45 days is considered delinquent and, unless otherwise agreed to, interest on the unpaid balance shall be paid beginning with the 46th day at the rate of 1% per month until paid in full. A liability shall not arise if a good faith dispute exists as to the agency’s obligation to pay all or a portion of the liability. Vendors shall invoice the agency separately for interest on delinquent amounts due. The billing shall reference the delinquent payment, the number of days interest to be paid and the applicable interest rate. [CRS 24-30-202(24), as amended.]

12. Vendor Offset. CRS 24-30-202 (1) and 24-30-202.4. [Not Applicable to Intergovernmental Contracts] The State Controller may withhold payment of certain debts owed to State agencies under the State’s vendor offset intercept system for: (a) unpaid child support debts or child support arrearages; (b) unpaid balances of tax, accrued interest, or other charges specified in Article 21, Title 39, CRS; (c) unpaid loans due to the Student Loan Division of the Department of Higher Education; (d) amounts required to be paid to the Unemployment Compensation Fund; and (e) other unpaid debts owing to the State or its agencies, as a result of final agency determination or reduced to judgment, as certified by the State Controller.

If this PO is for services, to the extent authorized by law, vendor shall indemnify, save, and hold harmless the State, its employees and agents, against any and all claims, damages, liability and court awards including costs, expenses, and attorney fees and related expenses, incurred as a result of any act or omission by vendor, or its employees, agents, subcontractors or assignees, arising out of or in connection with performance of services ordered by this PO.

21. Termination For Convenience. a. If not accepted by written acknowledgment, this PO may be canceled by written or oral notice to vendor prior to shipment of goods or beginning of performance of services. b.
