• The Contractor’s committee member shall be present during the failed DL/ID card<br />

examinations. The number of failed cards will determine the assessment of any<br />

damages or a credit adjustment to the following month’s active card billing report.<br />

• Cards that fail in manufacturing or prior to being considered active shall not be included<br />

in any invoice to the ODPS. These cards shall be considered inactive and the spoilage<br />

costs borne by the Contractor hence not subject to damage provisions.<br />

• The CRC will also assess problems with defective materials (i.e. incorrect laminate<br />

[wrong state], improperly wound rolls, warped cards, etc.). If equipment downtime, which<br />

lasts more than the permitted repair time, or defective materials cause the DR or CSC<br />

the inability to conduct business, damages of $892.00 per site per day will be assessed<br />

for inconvenience to the DR and CSC customers, DR and CSC goodwill loss and loss of<br />

staff productivity.<br />

• If the Contractor fails to meet any of the <strong>RFP</strong> requirements, the State may require a<br />

replacement of the DL/ID solution or any solution component (to be provided by the<br />

Contractor) and/or may avail itself of the other remedies available in this Contract. If a<br />

replacement is requested by the ODPS, such replacement shall be with new equipment<br />

of comparable or greater quality and shall be furnished and installed by the Contractor no<br />

later than 24 hours following the request for replacement, at no additional cost to the<br />

ODPS.<br />

• If the Contractor fails to meet any requirement of the Performance Level, the ODPS may<br />

require a replacement of any DL/ID solution or system component and/or may avail itself<br />

of the other remedies available in this Contract. If a replacement is requested by the<br />

ODPS, such replacement shall be with a new or upgraded model (only with prior<br />

approval from ODPS and DTS) as listed in the Contractor's proposal. The equipment<br />

must be furnished and installed by the Contractor no later than 24 hours following the<br />

request for replacement, at no additional cost to the ODPS.<br />

Payment of Damages. The Contractor must pay any damages within 30 days after the State’s notice of<br />

an assessment of such damages. Should the Contractor fail to make such payment in a timely manner,<br />

on written notice to the Contractor, the State may offset any amounts due or becoming due to the<br />

Contractor by the amount of the damages that are accrued but unpaid.<br />

Damages and Termination for Default. In addition to assessing damages, the State also may provide<br />

the Contractor with written notice of its default for any failure that is subject to assessment of damages,<br />

and the Contractor must cure that default within 30 days. Should the Contractor fail to cure its default<br />

within the 30 day cure period, this Contract will terminate immediately for cause and the State will be<br />

entitled to damages related to that termination in accordance with the termination section of this Contract.<br />

Should the State assess damages or otherwise be entitled to damages under this provision, on written<br />

notice to the Contractor, the State may offset these damages from any Fees due under this Contract.<br />

PART FIVE: ACCEPTANCE AND MAINTENANCE<br />

Acceptance. There will be no formal acceptance procedure unless the <strong>RFP</strong> Documents expressly<br />

provide otherwise. If the <strong>RFP</strong> Documents do not provide otherwise, the acceptance procedure will be an<br />

informal review by the Work Representative to ensure that each Deliverable and the Work as a whole<br />

comply with the requirements of this Contract. The Work Representative will have up to 30 calendar days<br />

to do this. No formal letter of acceptance will be issued, and passage of the 30 calendar days will imply<br />

acceptance, though the State will issue a notice of noncompliance if a Deliverable or the Work as a whole<br />

does not meet the requirements of this Contract. If the Work Representative issues a letter of<br />

noncompliance, then the Contractor will have 30 calendar days to correct the problems listed in the<br />

noncompliance letter. If the Contractor fails to do so, the Contractor will be in default without a cure<br />
