Description:

At any time during the contract term, Alabama A&M University reserves the right to terminate a contract for convenience or cause with 30 days prior notice to the vendor or cancel any individual trip at any time.

Alabama A&M University will issue the awarded vendor an open purchase order in the sum of the estimated total contract value. It is to be understood that due to force majeure schedule changes may occur and transportation needs may be canceled. The University reserves the right to cancel a trip at any time. For these reasons, the vendor will invoice actual fees incurred to be paid in reference to the open purchase order. It is to be understood that the quoted, estimated total contract value is to be considered the not to exceed price under the assumption no schedule changes occur. Therefore, a vendor may not actually receive the total estimated contract value as revenue.

Alabama A&M University understands that fuel costs and mileage are associated costs with travel and may not be known until after a trip has been completed. For those reasons, bidders are encouraged to provide their best estimate of the price for each trip. Vendors must provide as an attachment a listing of their passenger bus fleet by Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Make, Model, and Vehicle Year that meet or exceed the requirements of Invitation to Bid No. 2K19-04B. Only vehicles that meet or exceed these requirements may be offered to Alabama A&M University at any point during the duration of the season as reflected on the Proposal Sheet.

Question 1

Posted: 12/6/2018

Question: I would like to turn the bid in for 2019 Tennis, but I think there is a mistake. On the trip to Montgomery, AL., it shows March 9-17th, but at the bottom it says 3 night hotel in Montgomery. Is the dates correct, or should it be March 9-12th?

Response: Yes, there is an error concerning the dates. The bid should reflect March 9-12 for the Montgomery, AL trip rather than March 9-17.
