Term of the Contract

The decision to renew the Contract for any option term will be at the sole discretion of the TPS. All terms and conditions of the Contract shall remain in effect and continue during the optional year(s).
Notwithstanding the above noted, the TPS retains the right to terminate any contract without notice for cause.
The Vendor shall not assign or sub-contract any part of this contract to a third party without the prior written approval of TPSB.

Piggyback (if applicable)
The TPS may, upon request, permit other public bodies and the Police Cooperative Purchasing Group (PCPG) to purchase against any part of the contract which may result from this RFQ.
Proponents are requested to indicate on the Pricing Submission form if they will extend the pricing, terms and conditions of this proposal to other government agencies including PCPG, if the Proponent becomes the successful services provider.
If the successful Proponent agrees to this provision, participating agencies may enter into a contract with the successful Proponent for the purchase of services described herein based on the terms, conditions, prices, and percentages offered by the Proponent. Minor changes in terms and conditions may be negotiated by participating agencies.
Please note: copies of the Proponents submission may need to be provided to the interested agency (in confidence) in order to review prior to participating

Non-Exclusivity

Negotiations
The TPS reserves the right to enter into negotiations with any one or more Proponents regarding price, scope of services, or any other term of their applications, and such other agreement or contractual terms as the TPS may require, at any time prior to execution of an agreement, whether or not a notice of intent to develop an agreement has been issued to any Proponent and without reissuing this RFQ; and to enter into simultaneous, competitive negotiations with multiple Proponents or to negotiate with individual Proponents, either together or in sequence, and to permit or require, as a result of negotiations, the expansion or reduction of the scope of services or changes in any other terms of the submitted applications, without informing other Proponents of the changes or affording them the opportunity to revise their applications in light thereof, unless the TPSB, in its sole discretion, determine that doing so is in the TPSB’s best interest; and, to discontinue negotiations with any Proponent at any time prior to the execution of an agreement, whether or not a notice of intent to develop an agreement has been issued to the Proponent, and to enter into negotiations with any other proponent, if the TPSB, in its sole discretion, determine it is in the best interest of the TPSB to do so.
