of this Contract. The Contract expires upon the physical completion of the last outstanding task or delivery order
of the Contract. The close-out report must cover all sales not shown in the final quarterly report and reconcile all
errors and credits. If the Contractor reported all contract sales and reconciled all errors and credits on the final
quarterly report, then the Contractor should show zero “0” sales in the close-out report.

quarterly or closeout sales report is submitted to the Department of Administrative Services, Office of State
Purchasing. To ensure the payment is credited properly, the Contractor must identify the payment as a “State of

the State’s epayment portal, or ACH payment, if approved by the State, using the instructions below
Check remittance:

payment type and follow the on-screen prompts.
ACH Payments:
If this payment method is approved by the State, the State will provide payment instructions to Contractor.
If the full amount of the Revenue Share is not paid within 30 days after the end of the applicable reporting period,
the non-payment will constitute a contract debt to the State. The State may setoff any unpaid Revenue Share
from any amount owed to the Contractor under this Contract and employ all other remedies available to it under
Ohio law for the non-payment of the Revenue Share. Additionally, if the Contractor fails to pay the Revenue
Share in a timely manner, the failure will be a breach of this Contract, and the State may terminate this Contract
for cause as set forth herein and seek damages for the breach.

Instructions, Terms and Conditions for Bidding that apply to the solicitation.
5 – SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS:

Supplies will be delivered to the participating agency within the timeframe noted on the contract for the item after
receipt of order. The delivery location will be noted on the purchase order issued by the participating agency.
5.2 - CONTRACT AWARD:
The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder by line item.
5.3 – EVALUATION:
Bids will be evaluated in accordance with Article I-15 of the “Instructions to Bidders”. In addition, the State will
evaluate the bid based on the total item cost, which equals the estimated number of units multiplied by the unit bid
price plus the appropriate delivery charge. If estimated usages are unknown a quantity of one (1) will be used for
the evaluation. If there is no “delivery charge per mile round trip map mileage rate” supplied or, the calculated value
of the delivery charge is less than the minimum delivery charge, the minimum delivery charge will be used for
evaluation purposes. The State reserves the right to reject the “per mile” delivery charge or the “minimum” delivery
charge if it is determined to be excessive.
Example Calculation:
Total Item Cost = [(vehicle unit price) x (estimated number of units)] + [(delivery charge per mile round trip x 300)
x estimated number of vehicles]

not provided as part of the bid response, the Bidder must provide said literature within seven (7) calendar days
after request/notification by the Office of Procurement Services to do so. Failure of the bidder to furnish
descriptive literature either as part of their bid response or within the time specified herein may deem the bidder
