The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is called for by any one shall be as binding as if called for by all. In case of conflict between any of the Contract Documents, priorit of interpretation shall be in the following order: Signed Agreement, Performance and Payment Bonds, Special Bonds (if any), Proposal, Special Conditions of Agreement, Notice to Contractors, Technical Specifications, Plans, and General Conditions of Agreement. 1.03 SUB - CONTRACTOR. The term Sub- Contractor, as employed herein, includes only those having a direct contract with the CONTRACTOR and it includes one who furnishes material worked to a special design according to the plans or specifications of this work, but does not include one who merely furnishes material not so worked. 1.04 WRITTEN NOTICE. Written notice shall be deemed to have been duly served if delivered in person to the individual or to a member of the firm or to an officer of the corporation for whom it is intended, or if delivered at or sent by registered mail to the last business address known to him who gives the notice. - 1.05 WORK. The CONTRACTOR shall provide and pay for all materials, supplies, machin- ery, equipment, tools, superintendence, labor, services, insurance, and all water, light, power, fuel, transportation and other facilities necessary for the execution and completion of the work covered by the contract documents. Unless otherwise specified, all materials shall be new and both workmanship and materials shall be of a good quality. The CONTRACTOR shall, if required, furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of materials. Materials or work described in words which so applied have a well known technical or trade meaning shall be held to refer to such recognized standards. 1.06 EXTRA WORK. The term "Extra Work" as used in this contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be required by the ENGINEER or OWNER to be done by the CONTRACTOR to accomplish any change, alteration or addition to the work shown upon the plans, or reasonably implied by the specifications, and not covered by the CONTRACTOR'S Proposal, except as provided under "Changes and Alterations ", herein. 1.07 WORKING DAY.

Likewise, the CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible for the safety of himself, his employ- ees and other persons, as well as for the protection of the safety of the improvements being erected and the property of himself or any other person, as a result of his operations hereunder. Engineer- ing construction drawings and specifications as well as any additional information concerning the work to be performed passing from or through the ENGINEER shall not be interpreted as requiring or allowing CONTRACTOR to deviate from the plans and specifications, the intent of such drawings, specifications and any other such instructions being to define with particularity the agreement of the parties as to the work the CONTRACTOR is to perform. CONTRACTOR shall be fully and completely liable, at his own expense, for design, construction, installation and use, or non -use, of all items and methods incident to performance of the contract, and for all loss, damage or injury incident thereto, either to person or property, including, without limitation, the adequacy of all temporary supports, shoring, bracing, scaffolding, machinery or equipment, safety precau- tions or devices, and similar items or devices used by him during construction.

Deviation by the CONTRACTOR from plans and specifications that may have been in evidence during any such visitation or observation by the ENGINEER, or any of his representatives, whether called to the CONTRAC- TOR'S attention or not shall in no way relieve CONTRACTOR from his responsibility to complete all work in accordance with said plans and specifications. 2.08 CONTRACTOR'S UNDERSTANDING. It is understood and agreed that the CON- TRACTOR has, by careful examination, satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the conformation of the ground, the character, quality and quantity of the materials to be encoun- tered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the work under this contract. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent or employee of the OWNER or ENGINEER either before or after the execution of this contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations herein contained. 2.09 CHARACTER OF WORKMEN. The CONTRACTOR agrees to employ only orderly and competent men, skillful in the performance of the type of work required under this contract, to do the work; and agrees that whenever the ENGINEER shall inform him in writing that any man or men on the work are, in his opinion, incompetent, unfaithful or disorderly, such man or men shall be discharged from the work and shall not again be employed on the work without the ENGINEER'S written consent. 2.10 CONTRACTOR'S BUILDINGS. The building of structures for housing men, or the erection of tents or other forms of protection, will be permitted only at such places as the ENGINEER shall direct, and the sanitary conditions of the grounds in or about such structures shall at all times be maintained in a manner satisfactory to the ENGINEER. G - 3 O ., T... 8..,.,. A_5 If "1 If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a claim for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with, except as provided for unit price items under Section 5 "Measurement and Pay- ment." If the amount of work is increased, and the work can fairly be classified under the speci- fications, such increase shall be paid for according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price, if any, established for such work under this contract, except as provided for unit price items under Section 5 "Measurement and Payment;" otherwise, such additional work shall be paid for as provided under Extra Work. In case the OWNER shall make such changes or alterations as shall make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the OWNER shall recompense the CONTRACTOR for any material or labor so used, and for any actual loss occasioned by such change, due to actual expenses incurred in preparation for the work as originally planned. 3. GENERAL OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES 3.01 KEEPING OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS ACCESSIBLE.

All drawings, specifications and copies thereof furnished by the ENGINEER shall not be reused on other work, and, with the exception of the signed contract sets, are to be returned to him on request, at the completion of the work. All models are the property of the OWNER. 3.03 ADEQUACY OF DESIGN. It is understood that the OWNER believes it has employed competent engineers and designers. It is, therefore, agreed that the OWNER shall be responsible for the adequacy of the design, sufficiency of the Contract Documents, the safety of the structure and the practicability of the operations of the completed project; provided the CONTRACTOR has complied with the requirements of the said Contract Documents, all approved modifications thereof, and additions and alterations thereto approved in writing by the OWNER.

The OWNER reserves the right to enter the property or location on which the works herein contracted for are to be constructed or installed, by such agent or agents as he may elect, for the purpose of inspecting the work, or for the purpose of constructing or installing such collateral work as said OWNER may desire. 3.05 COLLATERAL CONTRACTS. The OWNER agrees to provide by separate contract or otherwise, all labor and material essential to the completion of the work specifically excluded from this contract, in such manner as not to delay the progress of the work, or damage said CONTRAC- TOR, except where such delays are specifically mentioned elsewhere in the Contract Documents. 3.06 DISCREPANCIES AND OMISSIONS. It is further agreed that it is the intent of this contract that all work must be done and all material must be furnished in accordance with the generally accepted practice, and in the event of any discrepancies between the separate contract documents, the priority of interpretation defined under "Contract Documents" shall govern. In the event that there is still any doubt as to the meaning and intent of any portion of the contract, specifications or drawings, the ENGINEER shall define which is intended to apply to the work. 3.07 EQUIPMENT, MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION PLANT. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the care, preservation, conservation, and protection of all materials, supplies, machinery, equipment, tools, apparatus, accessories, facilities, all means of construction, and any and all parts of the work, whether the CONTRACTOR has been paid, partially paid, or not paid for such work, until the entire work is completed and accepted.

If t„e material or process specified or required by the OWNER is an infringe- ment, the CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for such loss unless he promptly gives such information to the OWNER. 3.15 LAWS AND ORDINANCES. The CONTRACTOR shall at all times observe and comply with all Federal, State and local laws, ordinances and regulations, which in any manner affect the contract or the work, and shall indemnify and save harmless the OWNER and ENGINEER against any claim arising from the violation of any such laws, ordinances, and regulations whether by the CONTRACTOR or his employees, except where such violations are called for by the provisions of the Contract Documents. If the CONTRACTOR observes that the plans and specifications are at variance therewith, he shall promptly notify the ENGINEER in writing, and any necessary changes shall be adjusted as provided in the contract for changes in the work. If the CONTRAC- TOR performs any work knowing it to be contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and without such notice to the ENGINEER, he shall bear all costs arising therefrom. In case the OWNER is a body politic and corporate, the law from which it derives its powers, insofar as the same regulates the objects for which, or the manner in which, or the conditions under which the JWNER may enter into contract, shall be controlling, and shall be considered as part of this contract, to the same effect as though embodied herein. 3.16 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. The CONTRACTOR further agrees that he will retain personal control and will give his personal attention to the fulfillment of this contract and that he will not assign by Power of Attorney, or otherwise, or sublet said contract without the written consent of the ENGINEER, and that no part or feature of the work will be sublet to anvone objectionable to the ENGINEER or the OWNER.

No claims shall be made by the CONTRACTOR for damages resulting from hindrances or delays from any cause (except where the work is stopped by order of the OWNER) during the progress of any portion of the work embraced in this contract. In case said work shall be stopped by the act of the OWNER, then such expense as in the judgment of the ENGINEER is caused by such stoppage of said work shall be paid by the OWNER to the CONTRACTOR. 5. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 5.01 QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS. No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured and /or computed length, area, solid contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided. 5.02 ESTIMATED QUANTITIES. This agreement, including the specifications, plans and estimate, is intended to show clearly all work to be done and material to be furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown for the various classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract, they are approximate and are to be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing the proposals offered for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract may differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of such work done and the material furnished. Where payment is based on the unit price method, the CONTRACTOR agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits or otherwise on account of any differences which may be found between the quantities of work actually done, the material actually furnished under this contract and the estimated quantities contemplated and contained in the proposal; provided, however, that in case the actual quantity of any major item should become as much as 209 more than, or 20% less than the estimated or contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Agreement, upon demand, shall be entitled to a revised consideration upon the portion of the work above or below 20% of the estimated quantity. A "Major Item" shall be construed to be any individual bid item incurred in the proposal that 'has a total cost equal to or greater than five (5) per cent of the total contract cost, computed on the basis of the proposal quantities and the contract unit prices. Any revised consideration is to be determined by agreement between the parties, otherwise �by:the terms of this Agreement, as provided under "Extra Work." 5.03 . 'PRICE OF WORK. In consideration of the furnishing of all the necessary labor, equipment and material, . and the completion of all work by the CONTRACTOR, and on the completion of all work and of the delivery of all material embraced in this Contract in full !,conformity with the specifications and stipulations herein contained, the OWNER agrees to pay ; the CONTRACTOR the prices set forth in the Proposal hereto attached, which has been made a part of this contract. The CONTRACTOR hereby agrees to receive such prices in full for furnishing all material and all labor required for the aforesaid work, also for all expense incurred by him, and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this Agreement. (a) Defective work not remedied. (b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims. (c) Failure of the CONTRACTOR to make payments properly to sub- contractors or for material or labor. (d) Damage to another contractor. (e) Reasonable doubt that the work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the contract amount. (f) Reasonable indication that the work will not be completed within the contract time. When the above grounds are removed or the CONTRACTOR provides a Surety Bond satisfactory to the OWNER, which will protect the OWNER in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them. 5.09 DELAYED PAYMENTS. Should the OWNER fail to make payment to the CONTRAC. TOR of the sum named in any partial or final statement, when payment is due, then the OWNER shall pay to the CONTRACTOR, in addition to the sum shown as due by such statement, interest thereon at the rate of six (6) per cent per annum, unless otherwise specified, from date due as provided under "Partial Payments" and "Final Payments," until fully paid, which shall fully liquidate any injury to the CONTRACTOR growing out of such delay in payment, but the right is expressly reserved to the CONTRACTOR in the event payments be not promptly made, as provided under "Partial Payments," to at any time thereafter treat the contract as abandoned by the OWNER and recover compensation, as provided under "Abandonment of Contract," unless such payments are withheld in accordance with the provisions of "Payments Withheld." 6. EXTRA WORK AND CLAIMS 6.01 CHANGE ORDERS: Without invalidating this Agreement, the OWNER may, at any time or from time to time, order additions, deletions or revisions to the work; such changes will be authorized by Change Order to be prepared by the ENGINEER for execution by the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. The Change Order shall set forth the basis for any change ir, contract price, as hereinafter set forth for Extra Work, and any change in contract time which may result from the change. In the event the CONTRACTOR shall refuse to execute a Change Order which has been prepared by the ENGINEER and executed by the OWNER, the ENGINEER may in writing instruct the CONTRACTOR to proceed with the work as set forth in the Change Order and the CONTRACTOR may make claim against the OWNER for Extra Work involved therein, as herein- after provided. 6.02 MINOR CHANGES: The ENGINEER may authorize minor changes in the work not inconsistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents and not involving an increase in Contract Price. If the CONTRACTOR believes that any minor change or alteration authorized by the ENGINEER involves Extra Work and entitles him to an increase in the Contract Price, the CONTRACTOR shall make written request to the ENGINEER for a written Field Order. In such case, the CONTRACTOR by copy of his communication to the ENGINEER or otherwise in writing shall advise the OWNER of his request to the ENGINEER for a written Field Order and that the work involved may result in an increase in the Contract Price. Any request by the CONTRACTOR for a change in Contract Price shall be made prior to beginning the work covered by the proposed change. s6.03 EXTRA WORK: It is agreed that the basis of compensation to the CONTRACTOR for work either added or deleted by a Change Order or for which a claim for Extra Work is made shall be determined by one or more of the following methods: G - 11 0 .y r... —, AS(E 19 1 by the two arbiters to selected; or if the arbiters fail to select a third within ten (10) days, he shall be chosen by a District Judge serving the County in which the major portion of the project is located, unless otherwise specified. Should the party demanding arbitration fail to name an arbiter within ten (10) days of the demand, his right to arbitrate shall lapse, and the decision of the ENGINEER shall be final and binding on him. Should the other party fail to choose an arbiter within ten (10) days, the ENGINEER shall appoint such arbiter. Should either party refuse or neglect to supply the arbiters with any papers or information demanded in writing, the arbiters are empowered by both parties to take ex parte proceedings. The arbiters shall act with promptness. The decision of any two shall be binding on both parties to the contract. The decision of the arbiters upon any question submitted to arbitration under this contract shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action. The derision of the arbiter or arbiters may be filed in court to carry it into effect. The arbiters, if they deem the case demands it, are authorized to award the party whose contention is sustained, such sums as they deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident to the appeal, and if the appeal was taken without reasonable cause, they may award damages for any delay occasioned thereby. The arbiters shall fix their own compensation, unless otherwise provided by agreement, and shall assess the cost and charges of the arbitration upon either or both parties. The award of the arbiters must be made in writing. 7. ABANDONMENT OF CONTRACT 7.01 ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR. In case the CONTRACTOR should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from the OWNER, or the ENGINEER, or if the CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the orders of the ENGINEER, when such orders are consistent with the Contract Documents, then, and in that case, where performance and payment bonds exist, the Sureties on these bonds shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the CONTRACTOR. After receiving said notice of abandonment the CONTRACTOR shall not remove from the work any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work, may be held for use on the work by the OWNER or the Surety on the performance bond, or another contractor in completion of the work; and the CONTRACTOR shall not receive any rental or credit therefor (except when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Section 6, Extra Work and Claims), it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement. Where there is no performance bond provided or in ease the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinbefore provided for, within ten (10) days after service of such notice, then the OWNER may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners: 7.01.1 The OWNER may thereupon employ such force of men and use such machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as said OWNER may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies to said CONTRACTOR, and expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the OWNER out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the CONTRAC- TOR under and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by the CONTRACTOR, then said CONTRACTOR shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by said CONTRACTOR, then the CONTRACTOR and /or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the OWNER; or 7.01.2 The OWNER under sealed bids, after five (5) days notice published one or more times in a newspaper having general circulation in the county of the location of the work, may let the contract for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract. In case any increase in cost to the OWNER under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the CONTRACTOR and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than what would have been the cost to complete under this contract, the CONTRACTOR andlor his Surety shall be credited therewith.

(NOTE THAT THE EXTERNAL INPUT WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE BE USED TO CALL SPLIT 3 MAY NOW INSTEAD BE USED IN COMBINATION WITH THE OTHER CYCLE CALL INPUTS TO CALL CYCLES 5 THRU 8). COORDINATORS OFFERING ONLY FOUR (4) CYCLES, BUT OFFERING FOUR (4) SPLITS AND FOUR (4) OFFSETS PER CYCLE MAY BE AN ACCEPTABLE SUBSTITUTE, BUT THE PROVISION OF SUCH WILL REQUIRE THE APPROVAL OF THE AGENCY The coordination program provided in these timers shall include the following features: A. Cycle length adjustable at least from 30 to 255 seconds, with timing and offset adjustments either in seconds or percent of cycle. B. The ability to associate the sequence of each of the four (4) left turn phases SEPARATELY FOR EACH DIAL AND SPLIT FROM THE KEYBOARD to be: 1) normal "leading" sequence (preceeding the opposing thru phase); 2) "trailing" sequence (following the opposing thru phase); 3) to occur TWICE PER CYCLE, BOTH "LEADING" AND "TRAILING "; 4) to be OMITTED during a particular dial and split, with the calls from its detector input being internally switched to the compatible thru phase in the other ring when and only when the left turn phase is thus being omitted. The ability to associate the desired type(s) of left turn operation with each dial and split combination from the keyboard shall be available for both internal time base and external conventional hard wire system operation. The program shall also include the capability to select these functions for "free" operation. For each controller phase there shall be two (2) force -off points provided and available for use in each coordination cycle, such that left turn phases on both streets may be brought up twice per cycle (both "leading" and "trailing ") or such that the main and side street phases may be brought up and forced off twice per background cycle. C. THE COORDINATION PROGRAM SHALL BE OF A TYPE WHEREIN THE SET - OF THE -12- "YIELD" AND "FORCE OFF" POINTS WILL REQUIRE THE ENTRY OF NO MORE THAN THREE (3) NUMERIC VALUES IN EACH SPLIT FOR EACH TIME A PHASE IS PROGRAMMED TO COME UP IN THE BACKGROUND CYCLE. NOTE THAT COORDINATORS EMPL CIRCUIT AND INTERVAL TYPE CONTROL AND TIMIN SCHEMES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTABLE D. For dual ring and diamond interchange operation, the coordinator shall provide separate and independently adjustable "yield" points, or equivalent, for the major street phase in each ring, such that the termination point of each main street phase may be controlled with adequate precision during "lagging" left turn phase operation. E. The internal coordination program shall be of such a design that the controller may be operated in either semi - actuated (major street becomes non - detector extendable and rests in walk) or full- actuated mode when in coordination, as individually selected by the operator for each dial and split combination from the front panel. This design shall include activation of the pedestrian recycle function at appropriate points in the background cycle. F. The coordination program shall feature automatic calculation and implementation of the maximum width of the "permissive" period during which late side street calls may still be serviced within any given background cycle. Where time remaining in the background cycle permits, the coordinator program shall allow the side street phases to be re- serviced more than once in a given coordination cycle. This shall include automatic internal computation of the points at which each phases' vehicle and (separately) pedestrian omits shall be applied an appropriate number of seconds before the occurance of that phase's primary force -off (latching) point, to insure that no phase will be timing its minimum or pedestrian intervals when its primary force -off occurs. The second (auxiliary) force -off shall be a non - latching pulse gated to the respective phase on. G. The coordinator program shall internally provide all appropriate provisions for operation of the Call to Non - actuated, Maximum Inhibit, and Pedestrian Recycle functions on a per dial and split basis during coordination control, BOTH BY THE INTERNAL TBC AND WHEN OPERATING AS A HARD WIRE SECONDARY. H. The internal Time Base Coordination event clock shall be capable of calling up Free, Max 2 and Night Flash as keyboard programmed. I. THE PROGRAMMING OF THE INTERNAL TIME BASE COORDINATION EVENT CLOCK SHALL BE OF THE TYPE IN WHICH ANY EVENT INSTRUCTION MAY BE DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH ONE OR MORE DAYS OF THE WEEK OR HOLIDAYS, AND NOT OF THE TYPE IN WHICH DAY PROGRAM SCHEDULES MUST BE FIRST PROGRAMMED, AND TH EN ASSOCIATED WITH THE CALENDAR DAYS TO WHICH THEY APPLY. J. The scheduled night flash shall be generated either internal or external to the timer, and blink the load switch driver inputs independently of the cabinet (conflict monitor) flash circuitry. It shall be possible to front -panel or switch program any non -13- conflicting arrangement of amber or red flashing movements and to program exclusive left turn and pedestrian indications to be dark during scheduled flash operation. Suitable circuitry shall be provided to permit the red monitor enable input to the conflict monitor to be deactivated during scheduled flash where requisite. Transfer between colors (stop- and -go) and scheduled night flash operation shall be in accordance with the intent of the MUTCD. K. METHOD OF INTERNAL TBC REFERENCE SYNC PULSE GENERATION. The internal Time Base Coordinator shall internally generate the reference sync pulse from which the local offset is calculated either by the method of computation forward from a user programmable reference time of day, or by the method of generating each new cycle's first sync pulse at the time of day the new cycle is called for ( "event dependant" mode) AS SELECTED BY THE OPERATOR ON THE FRONT PANEL. IN ORDER TO INSURE EXACT CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE "MASTER" SYNC PULSES AND THE SYSTEM'S TIME -OF -DAY CLOCK, A SYNC PULSE SHALL BE GENERATED AT ANY TIME THE TIME -OF -DAY CLOCK SHOWS A POINT IN TIME WHICH IS AN EXACT NUMBER OF CYCLE LENGTHS AT OR AFTER THE APPLICABLE RESYNC TIME. METHODS WHEREIN CYCLE COUNTERS USED TO GENERATE SYNC PULSES ONLY UPDATE AT THE REFERENCE TIME OF. DAY WILL NOT BE ACCEPTABLE L. BACKGROUND CYCLE TIMER DISPLAY Suitable means shall be provided such that the count -up of the local background cycle timer may be observed in dynamic or realtime operation on the front panel display. M. COORDINATION PROGRAM INITIALIZATION Suitable means shall be provided within the that a manual command may be entered reinitialize all coordination timings and e inactive or default value, such that the subsequently entered without the necessity unused values or entries. coordination program such from the keyboard to ntries to an appropriately desired program may be of individually deleting N. Preferrably, when establishing its offset from an internal sync pulse, the coordinator should reference only the leading edge of the sync pulse, irrespective of its width. 0. For applications where only an external sync reference is available from non -time base or other unlike types of control equipment ("color-circuit slave -off" systems), as delivered it shall be possible for the coordinator to establish its offset from an externally input sync pulse while the internal TOO clock and event schedule remains available for the selection of all other schedulable commands, including: Cycle, Offset, Split, Max II, Free, and Flash. -14- P. PRETIMED CONTROLLER EMULATION The coordination program shall be of such a design that it may be programmed from the front panel to precisely emulate the operation of a pretimed controller for applications where no detection is provided.

Where the series number indicated is one which the Agency feels it has adequate previous exposure, the Agency may or may not, in its sole discretion, elect to waive the sample demonstration requirements below. -31- After the bid opening, the vendor may substitute another brand and /or model of controller, but only upon specific permission of the Agency. Examples of cases in which the Agency might grant permission to make such a substition include but are not limited to: A. The substitution of another model which the Agency considered superior to that originally proposed. B. The substitution of another model offered subsequent to a sample demonstration at which the originally proposed model was rejected. C. The substitution of another model judged by the Agency to be at least equal to or superior to the model originally proposed in order to improve delivery. Of course, any such substitution would be allowed only with no increase in price, delivery lead time or change in other terms. If the bidder is bidding with specific exceptions, he shall attach or append a list of them to his bid. This is the only other inclusion required to be submitted with the bid form. Any other attachments, such as catalog cuts, other descriptive literature, compliance statements etc. are no longer required with the bid, but are encouraged and may be included at the bidder's option. Bidders should carefully study the delivery time requirements indicated in the bid to insure that their delivery time quotations fall entirely within the delivery required. Time is of the essence in Agency equipment purchases, and delivery quotations in excess of the delivery requirements SHALL BE grounds for bid rejection, even if the proposal is in conformance with the requirements in all other respects. 12.2 Sample Demonstration Requirements The apparent low bidder(s) may be required to demonstrate a working production unit of the brand, type, and series of controller timer he proposes to provide prior to award. If such a demonstration will be required, the bidder shall arrange to render such demonstration at Agency facilities within fifteen (15) working days after being notified of the requirement by the Agency. In order to expedite the the award process, it is recomended that the apparent low bidder initiate contact with appropriate Agency personnnel regarding the possibility of this requirement at his earliest convenience on or after the date of the bid opening. At any such demonstration, the required functions shall be demonstrated to the satisfaction of Agency engineering personnel, in whose sole discretion and judgement the adequacy of the demonstration shall be determined. However, the Agency reserves the right to further require the the apparent low bidder to produce a complete sample controller, documentation package and typical cabinet assembly for up to two weeks evaluation and bench test at the Agency within two weeks of receipt by the vendor of a request for such. Or, in some cases, the Agency may request that the vendor leave the sample controller timer -32- at the Shops for up to two weeks of bench testing in a Agency supplied cabinet. In all such cases, the sample equipment left for examination is done so at the supplier's expense and risk. At the initial demonstration, the supplier should be prepared to leave suitable descriptive literature, such as the Operations Manual for the controller timer, catalog sheets or fliers on the conflict monitor, other auxiliary equipment proposed and an example cabinet print for the Agency's more detailed review. As a condition necessary to approval of the sample controller and sample cabinet assembly described above, vendor may be required to submit a signed letter subsequent to inspection describing in detail how he proposes to resolve any discrepancies discovered by the Agency between the sample submitted and the requirements of this specification. Compliance with and acceptance under the above sample and document submissions requirements shall not relieve the vendor of responsibility for compliance with or resolution of any discrepancies between the product configuration supplied and the requirements of this specification which might be discovered by the Agency during the warranty period. If, at the end of the demonstration or evaluation, the Agency finds the sample equipment or its functions to be incomplete or unsatisfactory, the bidder will be notified that this is the grounds on which his bid will be rejected, and the above evaluation process will begin again with the next low responsive bidder. Likewise, failure to provide a sample and demonstration within the above time requirements shall be considered ground ro, ! ; d rejection. 12.3 Deliquency of Previous Orders If, at the time of the award, the Agency finds that the vendor is seriously deliquent in the delivery or completion of any order previously placed by the Agency with him, the Agency shall have the option of rejecting his bid on those grounds. 12.4 Pre - Delivery Inspection ALL DELIVERIES OF EQUIPMENT PURCHASED UNDER CATEGORICALLY REFUSED unless they have first Agency personnel at the supplier's ass( shipment. This inspection will be conducted appointment made by the supplier with the working days in advance. THIS SPECIFICATION WILL BE passed an inspection by the ?mbly facilities prior to by the Agency personnel upon Agency at least five (5) This inspection shall incude a detailed functional and configurational examination of one or more complete controller and cabinet assemblies, as selected by the inspection team for each bid line item, including a review of the required documentation package, which controller shall be set up by the supplier and running on bench test for this purpose. All of the other cabinets included in this proposed shipment shall be available for inspection to ensure that all required components and -33- prints are included for shipment complete. At the conclusion of the inspection, the supplier will be informed that the equipment proposed for shipment: A. is found to be complete and in compliance with these specifications, and that shipping may proceed forthwith, or; B. lacks only minor items or revisions necessary to make it complete and to specifications, which the vendor will be responsible for correction of prior to shipment, but for which reinspection will not be required before shipping, or; C. is disapproved for shipment due to major items lacking or deviations from these requirements, and that a subsequent reinspection will be required before shipment will be authorized. Whenever feasible, the supplier shall arrange for the pre - delivery inspection to be conducted at suitable facilities in or near the Dallas -Ft. Worth Metroplex area. If the proposed site of inspection is outside this area the supplier may be required to provide adequate transportation to and lodging near the inspection site for the Agency inspection team members at his expense. It shall be the vendor's responsibility to submit his request for inspection sufficiently far in advance of any delivery deadline that any deficiencies found in the inspection may be rectified without exceeding delivery requirements. REJECTION OR RESTRICTIONS ON THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROPOSED EQUIPMENT SHIPMENT WILL NOT USUALLY BE CONSIDERED GROUNDS FOR THE GRANTING OF A DELIVERY TIME EXTENSION Occasionally, the Agency may elect to waive the Pre - Delivery Inspection requirement in cases where it knows the equipment proposed for shipment to be identical to previous shipments found satisfactory, or where manpower constraints preclude the staffing of an inspection team. In such a case the supplier will be so notified when he contacts the Agency to arrange for the inspection. 12.5 Delivery and Dockside Inspection Equipment for which permission to ship has been granted will still be subject to inspection, refusal and return, if found to be incomplete or not to specifications upon delivery to Agency premises. Particular attention will be paid to any items found in Sect. 12.4 above to insure that items brought to the supplier's attention during the Pre - delivery Inspection have been properly corrected.
