1.INTRODUCTION
A. ABOUT NJPA
1.1
The National Joint Powers Alliance®- (NJPA)-is a public agency serving as a national municipal
contracting agency established under the Service Cooperative statute by Minnesota Legislative
Statute §123A.21 with the authority to develop and offer, among other services, cooperative
procurement services to its membership. Eligible membership and participation includes states, cities,
counties, all government agencies, both public and non-public educational agencies, colleges,
universities and non-profit organizations.
1.2
Under the authority of Minnesota state laws and enabling legislation, NJPA facilitates a competitive
bidding and contracting process on behalf of the needs of itself and the needs of current and potential
member agencies nationally. This process results in national procurement contracts with various
Vendors of products/equipment and services which NJPA Member agencies desire to procure. These
procurement contracts are created in compliance with applicable Minnesota Municipal Contracting
Laws. A complete listing of NJPA cooperative procurement contracts can be found at
www.njpacoop.org.
1.3
NJPA is a public agency governed by publicly elected officials that serve as the NJPA Board of
Directors. NJPA’s Board of Directors calls for all proposals, awards all Contracts, and hosts those
resulting Contracts for the benefit of its own and its Members use.
1.3.1Subject to Approval of the NJPA Board
: NJPA contracts are awarded by the action
of NJPA Board of Directors. This action is based on the open and competitive bidding
process facilitated by NJPA. The evaluation and resulting recommendation is
presented to the Board of Directors by the NJPA Proposal Evaluation Committee.
1.4
NJPA currently serves over 47,000 member agencies nationally. Both membership and utilization of
NJPA contracts continue to expand, due in part to the increasing acceptance of Cooperative
Purchasing throughout the government and education communities nationally.
B. JOINT EXERCISE OF POWERS LAWS
1.5
NJPA cooperatively shares those contracts with its Members nationwide through various “Joint
Exercise of Powers Laws” established in Minnesota and other States. The Minnesota “Joint Exercise
of Powers Law” is Minnesota Statute §471.59 which states “Two or more governmental units…may
jointly or cooperatively exercise any power common to the contracting parties…” Similar Joint
Exercise of Powers Laws exists within the laws of each State of the United States. This Minnesota
Statute allows NJPA to serve Member agencies located in all other states. Municipal agencies
nationally have the ability to participate in cooperative purchasing activities as a result of specific
laws of their own state. These laws can be found on our website at http://www.njpacoop.org/national-
cooperative-contract-solutions/legal-authority/.
C. WHY RESPOND TO A NATIONAL COOPERATIVE PROCUREMENT CONTRACT
1.6
National Cooperative Procurement Contracts create value for Municipal and Public Agencies, as well
as for Vendors of products/equipment and services in a variety of ways:
1.6.1 save the time and effort
National cooperative contracts potentially of Municipal and
Public Agencies who would have been otherwise charged with soliciting vendor responses to
individual RFP’s, resulting in individual contracts, to meet the procurement needs of their
respective agencies. Considerable time and effort is also potentially saved by the Vendors who
would have had to otherwise respond each of those individual RFPs. A single, nationally
advertised RFP, resulting in a single, national cooperative contract can potentially replace
3
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 157
thousands of individual RFPs for the same products/services that might have been otherwise
advertised by individual NJPA member agencies.
1.6.2 volume purchasing discounts
NJPA contracts offer our Members nationally leveraged .
Our contract terms and conditions offer the opportunity for Vendors to recognize individual
member procurement volume commitment through additional volume based contract discounts.
1.7
State laws that permit or encourage cooperative purchasing contracts do so with the belief that
cooperative efficiencies will result in lower prices, better overall value, and considerable time savings.
1.8
The collective purchasing power of thousands of NJPA Member agencies nationwide offers the
opportunity for volume pricing discounts. Although no sales or sales volume is guaranteed by an NJPA
Contract resulting from this RFP, substantial volume is anticipated and volume pricing is requested and
justified.
1.9
NJPA and its Members desire the best value for their procurement dollar as well as a competitive
price. Pre-competed procurement contracts offer NJPA and its Member agencies the ability to directly
compare non-price factors in their procurement analysis. Vendors have the opportunity to display and
highlight value added attributes of their company, equipment/products and services without constraints of
a typical individual proposal process.
D. THE INTENT OF THIS RFP
1.10A national contract awarded by the NJPA Board of Directors:
. The intent of this RFP is to
award a national contract by the action of the NJPA Board of Directors. This action will be influenced by
the recommendation of the NJPA Proposal Evaluation Committee, and as a result of the competitive
proposal and evaluation process which has been designed to reflect the best interests of NJPA and its
Member agencies. NJPA is seeking the most responsive Vendor relationship(s) to meet this need. The
goal and intent of this RFP is to follow through with an award and contract, which will be marketed
nationally through a cooperative effort between the awarded vendor(s) and NJPA.
1.11
NJPA’s primary intent is to establish and provide a national cooperative procurement contract,
offering opportunities for NJPA and our Member agencies to procure quality product/equipment and
services as desired and needed. Contracts are expected to offer price levels reflective of the potential and
collective volume of NJPA and the nationally established NJPA membership base.
1.11.1
Beyond our primary intent, NJPA further desires to:
Award a four year term contract with a fifth year contract option resulting from this RFP;
Offer and apply any applicable technological advances throughout the term of a contract
resulting from this RFP;
Deliver “Value Added” aspects of the company, equipment/products and services as
defined in the “Proposer’s Response”;
Deliver wide spectrums of solutions to meet the needs and requirement of NJPA and
NJPA Member agencies.
Award an exclusive contract to the most responsive vendor when it is deemed to be in the
best interest of NJPA and the NJPA Member agencies.
1.12Non-Manufacturer Awards:
NJPA reserves the right to make an award related to this invitation to
a non-manufacturer or dealer/distributor if such action is in the best interests of NJPA and its Members.
1.13 Exclusive or Multiple Awards
: Based on the goals and scope of this RFP, NJPA is requesting
responders to demonstrate their ability to serve the needs of NJPA’s national membership. It is NJPA’s
4
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 158
intent and desire to award a contract to a single exclusive Vendor to serve our membership’s needs. To
meet the goals of this RFP, NJPA reserves the right to award a Contract to multiple Proposers where the
result of the responding Proposers justifies a multiple award and multiple contracts are deemed to be in
the best interests of NJPA Member agencies.
E. SCOPE OF THIS RFP
1.14
The scope, goal and intent of this RFP is to award a contract to a qualifying vendor defined as a
manufacturer, provider, or dealer/distributor, established as a Proposer, and deemed responsive through
our open and competitive proposal process. Vendors will be awarded contracts based on the proposal and
responders demonstrated ability to meet the expectations of the RFP and demonstrate the overall highest
valued solutions which meet and/or exceed the current and future needs and requirements of NJPA and its
SEWER VACUUM, HYDRO-EXCAVATION,
Member agencies nationally within the scope of

requirements of NJPA and NJPA member agencies; demonstrate the knowledge of any and all applicable
industry standards, laws and regulations; and possess the willingness and ability to distribute, market to
and service NJPA Members in all 50 states are preferred. NJPA requests proposers submit their entire
product line as it applies and relates to the scope of this RFP. All proposals deemed responsive will be
evaluated based on their ability to provide the overall highest value to NJPA and NJPA Member agencies.
One of the measures of overall highest value will be the proposed breadth and depth of products and
services.
1.15 Best and Most Responsive – Responsible Proposer:
It is the intent of NJPA to award a Contract to
the best and most responsible and responsive Proposer(s) offering the best overall quality and selection of
equipment/products and services meeting the commonly requested specifications of the NJPA and NJPA
Members, provided the Proposer’s Response has been submitted in accordance with the requirements of
this RFP.
1.16 Sealed Proposals:
NJPA will receive sealed proposal responses to this RFP in accordance with
accepted standards set forth in the Minnesota Procurement Code and Uniform Municipal Contracting
Law. Awards may be made to responsible and responsive Proposers whose proposals are determined in
writing to be the most advantageous to NJPA and its current or qualifying future NJPA Member agencies.
1.17 Use of Contract:
Any Contract resulting from this solicitation shall be awarded with the
understanding that it is for the sole convenience of NJPA and its Members. NJPA and/or its members
reserve the right to obtain like product/equipment and services solely from this Contract or from another
contract source of their choice or from a contract resulting from their own procurement process.
1.18NJPA’s interest in a contract resulting from this RFP:
Not withstanding its own use, to the extent
NJPA issues this RFP and any resulting contract for the use of its Members, NJPA’s interests and liability
for said use shall be limited to the competitive proposal process performed and terms and conditions
relating to said contract and shall not extend to the products, services, or warranties of the Awarded
Vendor or the intended or unintended effects of the product/equipment and services procured there from.
1.19Awarded Vendor’s interest in a contract resulting from this RFP:
Awarded Vendors will be able
to offer to NJPA, and current and potential NJPA Members, only those products/equipment and services
specifically awarded on their NJPA Awarded Contract(s). Awarded Vendors may not offer as “contract
compliant”, products/equipment and services which are not specifically identified and priced in their
NJPA Awarded Contract.
1.20Sole Source of Responsibility
- NJPA desires a “Sole Source of Responsibility” Vendor meaning the
Vendor will take sole responsibility for the performance of delivered products/services. NJPA also desires
sole responsibility with regard to:
5
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 159
1.20.1Scope of Products/Services:
NJPA desires a provider for the broadest possible scope of
products/equipment and services being proposed over the largest possible geographic area and to
the largest possible cross-section of NJPA current and potential Members.
1.20.2Vendor use of sub-contractors in sourcing or delivering product/equipment and
services:
NJPA desires a single source of responsibility for equipment/products and services
proposed. Proposers are assumed to have sub-contractor relationships with all organizations and
individuals whom are external to the Proposer and are involved in providing or delivering the
product/equipment and services being proposed. Vendor assumes all responsibility for the
equipment/products and services and actions of any such Sub-Contractor.
1.21 Additional Definitions
for the scope of this solicitation.
1.21.1SEWER VACUUM, HYDRO-EXCAVATION, AND/OR STREET
In addition to
SWEEPER EQUIPMENT WITH RELATED ACCESSORIES AND SUPPLIES, this
solicitation should be read to include, but not limited to:
1.21.1.1
N/A
1.21.2
NJPA reserves the right to limit the scope of this solicitation for NJPA and current and
potential NJPA member agencies.
1.22Suggested Solutions Options
1.22.1
All potential Proposers are assumed to be professionals in their respective fields. As
professionals you are deemed to be intimately familiar with the spectrum of NJPA and NJPA
Members’ needs and requirements with respect to the scope of this RFP.
1.22.2
With this intimate knowledge of NJPA and NJPA Members’ needs, Proposers are
instructed to provide their proposal response in a format describing their solutions to those current
and future needs and requirements. Proposers should take care to be economical in their response
to this RFP.
1.22.3Examples
Multiple solutions to the needs of NJPA and NJPA Members are possible.
could include:
1.22.3.1 Equipment/Products Only Solution:
Equipment/products Only Solution may
be appropriate for situations where NJPA or NJPA Members possess the ability, either in-
house or through local third party contractors, to properly install and bring to operation
those equipment/products being proposed.
1.22.3.2Turn-Key Solutions:
A Turn-Key Solution is a combination of
equipment/products and services which provides a single price for equipment/products,
delivery, and installation to a properly operating status. Generally this is the most
desirable solution as NJPA and NJPA Members may not possess, or desire to engage,
personnel with the necessary expertise to complete these tasks internally or through other
independent contractors
1.22.3.3Good, Better, Best:
Where appropriate and properly identified, Proposers are
invited to offer the CHOICE of good – better – best multiple grade solutions to NJPA and
NJPA Members’ needs.
1.22.3.4Proven – Accepted – Leading Edge Technology:
Where appropriate and
6
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 160
properly identified, Proposers are invited to provide an appropriate identified spectrum of
technology solutions to compliment or enhance the functionality of the proposed
solutions to NJPA and NJPA Members’ needs both now and into the future.
1.23Overlap of Scope
:
1.23.1
When considering equipment, products, or groups of product/equipment and services
submitted as a part of your response, and whether inclusion of such will fall within a “Scope of
Proposal”, please consider the validity of an inverse statement.
For example, pencils and post-it-notes can generally be classified as office
supplies and office supplies generally include pencils and post-it-notes.
In contrast, computers (PCs and peripherals) can generally be considered office
supplies; however, the scope of office supplies does not generally include
computer servers and infrastructure.
In conclusion: With this in mind, individual products and services must be
examined individually by NJPA, from time to time and in its sole discretion, to
determine their compliance and fall within the original “Scope” as intended by
NJPA.
1.24 Geographic Area to be Proposed: SEWER VACUUM,
This RFP invites proposals to provide
HYDRO-EXCAVATION, AND/OR STREET SWEEPER EQUIPMENT WITH RELATED
ACCESSORIES AND SUPPLIES
to NJPA and NJPA Members throughout the entire United States and
possibly internationally. Proposers will be expected to express willingness to explore service to NJPA
Members located abroad; however the lack of ability to serve Members outside of the United States will
not be cause for non-award. The ability and willingness to serve Canada, for instance, will be viewed as a
value-added attribute.
1.25Manufacturer as a Proposer:
If the Proposer is a Manufacturer or wholesale distributor, the
response received will be evaluated on the basis of a response made in conjunction with that
Manufacturer’s authorized Dealer Network. Unless stated otherwise, a Manufacturer or wholesale
distributor Proposer is assumed to have a documented relationship with their Dealer Network where that
Dealer Network is informed of, and authorized to accept, purchase orders pursuant to any Contract
resulting from this RFP on behalf of the Manufacturer or wholesale distributor Proposer. Any such dealer
will be considered a sub-contractor of the Proposer/Vendor. The relationship between the Manufacturer

the activities invited. The ability of a Proposer to provide “Credits” to NJPA and NJPA Members in these
subject areas, either individually or through related entities involved in the transaction, will be evaluated

4.PRICING STRATEGIES
4.1
NJPA requests Potential Proposers respond to this RFP only if they are able to offer a wide array of
equipment/products and services and at prices lower and better value than what they would ordinarily
offer to single government agency, larger school district, or regional cooperative.
4.2
RFP is an “Indefinite Quantity Product/Equipment and Related Service Price and Program Request”
with potential national sales distribution and service. Proposers are agreeing to fulfill Contract obligations
regarding each product/equipment to which you provide a description and a price. If Proposer’s solution
requires additional supporting documentation, describe where it can be found in your submission. If
Proposer offers the solution in an alternative fashion, describe your solution to be easily understood. All
pricing must be copied on a CD along with other requested information as a part of a Proposer’s
15
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 169
Response.
4.3
Regardless of the payment method selected by NJPA or NJPA Member, a total cost associated with
any purchase option of the equipment/products and services and being supplied must always be disclosed
at the time of purchase.
4.4 Primary Pricing/Secondary Pricing Strategies-
All Proposers will be required to submit “Primary
Pricing” in the form of either “Line-Item Pricing,” or “Percentage Discount from Catalog Pricing,” or a
combination of these pricing strategies. Proposers are also encouraged to offer OPTIONAL pricing
strategies such as but not limited to “Hot List,” “Sourced Product/Equipment” and “Volume Discounts,”
as well as financing options such as leasing.
A. LINE-ITEM PRICING
4.5 Line-Item pricing-
A pricing format where specific individual products and/or services are offered at
specific individual Contract prices. Products/equipment and/or related services are individually priced and
described by characteristics such as manufacture name, stock or part number, size, or functionality. This
method of pricing offers the least amount of confusion as products/equipment and prices are individually
identified however, Proposers with a large number of products/equipment to propose may find this
method cumbersome. In these situations, a percentage discount from catalog or category pricing model
may make more sense and increase the clarity of the contract pricing format.
4.6
All Line-Item Pricing items must be numbered, organized, sectioned, including SKU’s (when
applicable) and easily understood by the Evaluation Committee and members.
4.7
Line-Item Pricing items are to be submitted in an Excel spreadsheet format provided and are to
include all appropriate identification information necessary to discern the line item from other line items
in each Responder’s proposal.
4.8
The purpose for the excel spreadsheet format for Line-Item Pricing is to be able to use the “Find”
function to quickly find any particular item of interest. For that reason, Proposers are responsible for
providing the appropriate product and service identification information along with the pricing
information which is typically found on an invoice or price quote for such products/equipment and related
services.
4.9
All products/equipment and related services typically appearing on an invoice or price quote must be
individually priced and identified on the line-item price sheet, including any and all ancillary costs.
4.10
Proposers are asked to provide both a published “List” price as well as a “Proposed Contract Price”
in their pricing matrix. “The published List” price will be the standard “quantity of one” price currently
available to government and educational customers excluding cooperative and volume discounts.
B. PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT FROM CATALOG OR CATEGORY
4.11 Percent Discount From Catalog, list or Category Pricing-
A specific percentage discount from a
“Catalogue or List Price” defined as a published Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the
products/equipment or related services being proposed.
4.12
Individualized percentage discounts can be applied to any number of defined product groupings.
4.13
A Percentage Discount from MSRP may be applied to all elements identified in MSRP including all
Manufacturer Options applicable to the product/equipment or related service.
4.14
Accessory options requested by the customer and related to the general scope of this RFP but are
not under the current contract will be priced using a “Sourced Product/equipment pricing model” as
16
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 170
defined herein. See Section F
4.15
When a Proposer elects to use “Percentage Discount from Catalog or Category,” Proposer will be
responsible for providing and maintaining current published “MSRP” with NJPA and must be included
in their proposal and provided throughout the term of any Contract resulting from this RFP.
4.16
NJPA reserves the right to review catalogs submitted to determine if the represented products and
services reflect and relate to the scope of this RFP. Each new catalog received may have the effect of
adding new product offerings and deleting products no longer carried by the Vendor. New catalogs shall
apply to the Contract only upon approval of the NJPA. Non-approved use of catalogs may result in
termination for convenience. New price lists or catalogs found to be offering non-contract items during
the Contract may be grounds for terminating the Contract for convenience. New optional accessories for
product/equipment and related services may be added to the Contract through the NJPA approval process
at the time they become available.
C. HOT LIST PRICING
4.17
Where applicable, NJPA also invites the Vendor, at their option, to offer a specific selection of
products/services, defined as a Hot List selection offer pricing at greater discounts or related advantages
than those listed in the standard Contract pricing. All product/service pricing, including the Hot List
Pricing, must be submitted electronically provided in Excel format. Hot List pricing must be submitted in
a Line-Item format. Providing or offering a “Hot List Selection” of equipment/products and related
services is optional. Equipment/products and related services may be added or removed from the “Hot
List” at any time.
4.18
Hot List program and pricing when applicable may also be used to discount and liquidate close-out
and discontinued equipment/products and related services as long as those close-out and discontinued
items are clearly labeled as such. Current ordering process and administrative fees apply. This option
must be published and made available to all NJPA Members.
4.19
Hot List Program and Pricing is allowed to change at the discretion of the Vendor within the
definition of Hot List Pricing. The Vendor is responsible to maintain current Hot List product/equipment
and related service descriptions and Pricing with NJPA.
D. CEILING PRICE
4.20
Proposal pricing is to be established as a ceiling price. At no time may the proposed
equipment/products and related services be offered pursuant to this Contract at prices above this ceiling
IMPORTANT NOTE:
price without request and approval by NJPA. Contract prices may be reduced to
allow for volume considerations and commitments and to meet the specific and unique needs of an NJPA
Member.
4.21
Allowable specific needs may include competitive situations, certain purchase volume
commitments or the creation of custom programs based on the individual needs of NJPA Members.
E. VOLUME PRICE DISCOUNTS
4.22
Proposers are free to offer volume commitment discounts from the contract pricing documented in a
Contract resulting from this RFP. Volume considerations shall be determined between the Vendor and
individual NJPA Members on a case-by-case basis.
4.23
Nothing in this Contract establishes a favored member relationship between the NJPA or any NJPA
Member and the Vendor. The Vendor will, upon request by NJPA Member, extend this same reduced
price offered or delivered to another NJPA Member provided the same or similar volume commitment,
specific needs, terms, and conditions, a similar time frame, seasonal considerations, locations,
17
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 171
competitively situations and provided the same manufacturer support is available to the Vendor.
4.24
All price adjustments are to be offered equally to all NJPA Members exhibiting the same or
substantially similar characteristics such as purchase volume commitments, and timing including the
availability of special pricing from the Vendor’s suppliers.
4.25
Additional Quantities:
4.25.1
The contract awarded vendor will accept orders for additional quantities at the same prices,
terms and conditions, providing the NJPA Member exercises the option before a specific date,
mutually agreed upon between member and contract awarded vendor at time of original purchase
order.
4.25.2
Any extension(s) of pricing beyond the specific date shall be upon mutual consent between
the NJPA Member and the contract awarded vendor.
F. SOURCED PRODUCT/EQUIPMENT /OPEN MARKET ITEMS
4.26
NJPA or NJPA Members may from time to time, request product/equipment and/or
equipment/products and related services that are within the related scope of this RFP, which are not
included in an awarded Vendor’s line-item product/equipment and related service listing or “list or
catalog.” These items are known as Sourced Product/Equipment or Open Market Items.
4.27
An awarded Vendor resulting from this RFP may “Source” equipment/products and related services
for NJPA or an NJPA Member to the extent they:
4.27.1
Identify all such equipment, products and services as “Sources Product/Equipment ” or
“Open Market Items” on any quotation issued in reference to an NJPA awarded contract, and
provided to either NJPA or an NJPA Member, and
4.27.2
All applicable acquisition regulations pertaining to the purchase of such equipment,
products and services have been followed, as defined by NJPA or the NJPA Member receiving
quotation from Vendor, and
4.27.3
NJPA or the NJPA Member has determined the prices as quoted by Vendor for such
equipment, products and services are deemed to be fair and reasonable and are acceptable to the
member.
G. COST PLUS A PERCENTAGE OF COST
4.28
Cost plus a percentage of cost as a primary pricing mechanism is not desirable.
H. TOTAL COST OF ACQUISITION
4.29
The Total Cost of Acquisition for the equipment/products and related services being proposed,
including those payable by NJPA Members to either the Proposer or a third party, shall be defined as:
The cost of the proposed equipment/products product/equipment and related services delivered
and operational for its intended purpose in the end-user’s location.
4.30
For example, if you are proposing equipment/products only (IE, FOB Proposer’s dock) your
proposal would identify your deviation from the “Total Cost of Acquisition” of contracted
equipment/products. The “Proposal should reflect that the contract does not provide for delivery beyond
18
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 172
Proposer’s dock, nor any set-up activities or costs associated with those delivery or set-up activities.” In
contrast, proposed terms including all costs for product/equipment and services delivered and operational
at to the end-user’s location would require a disclosure of “None.”
I. REQUESTING PRODUCT/EQUIPMENT AND RELATED SERVICE ADDITIONS/DELETIONS
4.31
Requests for product/equipment and related services, price changes, additions, deletions, or any
related contract changes must be made in written form and shall be subject to approval by NJPA.
4.32
New equipment/products and related services may be added to a Contract resulting from this RFP at
any time during that Contract to the extent those equipment/products and related services are within the
scope of this RFP. Those requests are subject to review and approval of NJPA. Allowable new
equipment/products and related services generally include new updated models of equipment/products
and related services and or enhanced services previously offered which could reflect new technology and
improved functionality.
4.33
Proposers representing multiple manufacturers, or carrying multiple related product lines may also
request the addition of new manufacturers or product lines to their Contract to the extent they remain
within the scope of this RFP.
4.34
NJPA’s due diligence in analyzing any request for change is to determine if approval of the request
is 1) within the scope of the original RFP, and 2) in the “Best Interests of NJPA and NJPA Members.”
We are looking for consistent pricing and delivery mechanisms and an understanding of what value the
proposal brings to NJPA and NJPA Members.
4.35
Documenting the “Best Interests of NJPA and NJPA Members” when outdated equipment is being
deleted is fairly straight forward since the product is no longer available and not relevant to the
procurement Contract.
4.36
Requests must be in the form of 1) an NJPA Vendor Price and Product Change Request Form which
includes a request to add the product/equipment line, a general statement identifying how the products to
be added are within the scope of the original RFP, and making a general statement identifying that, if
appropriate, the pricing is consistent with the existing Contract pricing. Further, provide detail as to what
is being added at what price in the request form. Pending approval of your request by NJPA you will need
to provide a complete re-statement of all pricing including all new prices/products AND existing prices
and products/equipment.
4.37
NJPA’s intent is to encourage Proposers to provide and document NJPA’s due diligence in a clear
and concise one page format on which we can approve and sign our acknowledgment and acceptance.
This information must ultimately come from Proposers, and NJPA is requiring it in this format.
J. REQUESTING PRICING CHANGES
4.38Price Decreases:
Requests for standard Contract price decrease adjustments (percentage discount
increases) are encouraged and will be allowed at any time based on market place efficiencies, market
place competitiveness, improved technologies and/or improved methods of delivery or if Vendor engages
in innovative procurement practices such as strategic sourcing, aggregate and volume purchasing. NJPA
expects Vendors to propose their very best prices and anticipates price reductions due to the advancement
of technologies and market place efficiencies. Documenting the “Best Interests of NJPA and NJPA
Members” is highly valued when we are documenting price reductions.
4.39Price increases:
Requests for standard contract price increases (or the inclusion of new generation
products/equipment/services at higher prices) can be made at any time. These requests will again be
evaluated by NJPA based on the best interests of NJPA and NJPA Members. As an example, typically
19
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 173
acceptable requests for price increases for existing equipment/products and services may cite increases to
the Vendor of input costs such as petroleum or other applicable commodities. Typically acceptable
requests for price increases for new equipment/products and services enhance or improve on the current
solutions currently offered as well as cite increases in utility of the new compared to the old. Vendors are
requested to reasonably document the claims cited in their requests. Your written request for a price
increase, therefore, is an exercise in describing what you need, and a justification for why you need it in
sufficient detail for NJPA to deem such change to be in the best interests of ourselves and our Members.
4.40Price Change Request Format
: An awarded Proposer will use the format of a NJPA Vendor Price
and Product Change Request Form to request price increases in general terms (a 5% increase in product
line X) and stating their justification for that price increase (due to the recent increase in petroleum or raw
material costs) by product category. Specific details for the requested price change must be attached to
the request letter identifying product/services where appropriate, both current and proposed pricing.
Attachments such as letters from suppliers announcing price increases are appropriate for documenting
your requests here.
K. PRICE AND PRODUCT CHANGES FORMAT
4.41NJPA VENDOR PRICE AND
All price and product change requests must be submitted using the
PRODUCT CHANGE REQUEST FORM
found at the very end of this solicitation. NJPA’s due
diligence regarding product and price change requests is to consider the reasonableness of the request and
document consideration on behalf of our members. Submit the following documentation to request a
pricing change:
4.41.1
An excel spreadsheet identifying all equipment/products and services being offered and
their pricing. Each subsequent pricing update will be saved using the naming convention of
“(Vendor Name) pricing effective XX/XX/XXXX.”
a. Include all equipment/products and services regardless of whether their prices have
changed. By observing this convention we will:
i. Reduce confusion by providing a single, easy to find, current pricing sheet for
each Vendor.
ii. Create a historical record of pricing.”
L. SINGLE STATEMENT OF PRICING/HISTORICAL RECORD OF PRICING
4.42
Initially; and again with each request for product addition, deletion, and/or pricing change; you must
state all pricing for all equipment/products and services available. The request for price changes described
above will serve as the documentation for those requested changes. Each complete pricing list will be
identified by its “Effective Date.” Each successive price listing identified by its “Effective Date” will
create a “Product and Price History” for the Contract.
4.43
Proposers may use the multiple tabs available in an Excel workbook to separately list logical product
groupings or to separately list product and service pricing as they see fit.
4.44
All equipment/products and services together with their pricing, whether changed within the request
or remaining unchanged, will be stated on each “Pricing” sheet created as a result of each request for
product, service, or pricing change.
4.45
Each subsequent “Single Statement of Product and Pricing” will be archived by its effective date
therefore creating a product and price history for any Contract resulting from this RFP. Proposers are
required to create a historical record of pricing annually by submitting updated pricing referred to as a
“Single Statement of Product/Equipment and Related Services Contract Price Update”. This pricing
update is required at a minimum of once per contract year.
M. PAYMENT TERMS
20
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 174
4.46

charge state and local sales and other taxes on items for which a valid tax exemption certification has not
been provided. Each NJPA Member is responsible for providing verification of tax exempt status to
Vendor. When ordering, if applicable, NJPA Members must indicate that they are tax exempt entities.
Except as set forth herein, no party shall be responsible for taxes imposed on another party as a result of
or arising from the transactions contemplated by a Contract resulting from this RFP.
O. SHIPPING AND SHIPPING PROGRAM
4.49

the cost of product/equipment. If shipping is charged to NJPA or NJPA Member, only the actual cost of
delivery may be added to an invoice. Shipping charges calculated as a percentage of the product price
may not be used, unless such charges are lower than actual delivery charges. No COD orders will be
accepted. It is desired that delivery be made within ninety-days (90) of receipt of the Purchase Order. See

pricing.”
4.51
Additional costs for expedited deliveries will be at the additional shipping or handling expense to the
NJPA Member.

Selection of a carrier for shipment will be the option of the party paying for said shipping. Use of
another carrier will be at the expense of the requester.
4.53
Proposers must define their shipping programs for Alaska and Hawaii and any location not served by
conventional shipping services. Over-size and over-weight items and shipments may be subject to
custom freight programs.
4.54
Proposals containing restocking fees are less advantageous than those not containing re-stocking
fees. That being said, certain industries cannot avoid restocking fees. Certain industries providing made to
order product/equipment may not allow returns. With regard to returns and restocking fees, Proposers will
be evaluated based on the relative flexibility extended to NJPA and NJPA Members relating to those
subjects. Where used, restocking fees in excess of 15% will be considered excessive. Restocking fees may
21
ΑΏΐΔȃΐΏȃΑΖ !¦¤£ Packet0 ¦¤ 175
be waived, at the option of the Proposer/Vendor. Indicate all shipping and re-stocking fees in price
program.
4.55
Proposer agrees shipping errors will be at the expense of the Vendor. For example, if a Vendor ships
a product that was not ordered by the member, it is the responsibility of the Vendor to pay for return mail
or shipment at the convenience of the member.

NJPA VENDOR PRICE AND PRODUCT CHANGE REQUEST FORM
Section 1. Instructions For Vendor
Pursuant to section 4 of the NJPA RFP, requests for equipment/products or service changes, additions or deletions will be
allowed at any time throughout the awarded contract term. All requests must be made in written format by completing
sections 2, 3 and 4 of the NJPA Price and Product Change Request Form and signature of an authorized Vendor employee
in section 5. All changes are subject to review and approval by the NJPA Contracts & Compliance Manager, signed in
acceptance by the NJPA Executive Director and acknowledged by the NJPA Contract Council. Submit request via email
ANDPandP@njpacoop.org.
to your Contract Manager :
NJPA’s due diligence in analyzing any request for change is to determine if approval of the request is: 1) within the scope
of the original RFP and 2) in the “Best Interests of NJPA and NJPA Members.” A signed Price and Product Change form
will be returned to vendor contact via email.
Vendor must complete this change request form and individually list or attach all items or services subject to change,
provide sufficiently detailed explanation and documentation for the change, and include a compete restatement of pricing
document in appropriate format (preferably Excel). The pricing document must identify all equipment/products and
services being offered and must conform to the following NJPA product/price change naming convention: (Vendor
Name) (NJPA Contract #) (effective pricing date); for example, “COMPANY 012411-CPY eff 02-12-2013.”
NOTE: New pricing restatement must include all equipment/products and services offered regardless of whether
their prices have changed and include a new “effective date” on the pricing documents. This requirement reduces
confusion by providing a single, current pricing sheet for each vendor and creates a historical record of pricing.
ADDITIONS. New equipment/products and related services may be added to a contract if such additions are within the
scope of the RFP.
DELETIONS. New equipment/products and related services may be deleted from a contract if an item or service is no
longer available and thus not relevant to the contract; for example, discontinued, improved, etc.
PRICE CHANGES: Request prices changes in general terms along with the justification by product category for the
change; for example, a 3% increase in XYZ Product Line is due to a 3% increase in petroleum, or this list of SKUs/
product descriptions is increasing X% due to X% increase in cost of raw materials.
Price decreases: NJPA expects Vendors to propose their very best prices and anticipates price reductions are due
to advancement of technologies and market place efficiencies.
Price increases: Typical acceptable increase requests include increases to Vendor input costs such as petroleum
or other applicable commodities, increases in product utility of new compared to old equipment/product or
service, etc. Vendor must include reasonable documentation for the claims cited in their request along with
detailed justification for why the increase is needed. Special details for price changes must be included with the
request along with both current and proposed pricing. Appropriate documentation should be attached to this
form, including letters from suppliers announcing price increases.
Refer to section 4 of the RFP for complete “Pricing” details.

Provide a general statement and documentation explaining the reasons for these price and/or product changes.
