The purpose of this Agreement is to permit the Eligible Procurement Unit named above, hereafter known as the State Cooperative Member (Member), to purchase materials and services from State contractors at the prices and terms expressed in contracts between the State and those State contractors. In consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, and of the mutual benefits to result there from, the State and the State Cooperative Member agree as follows: 1. The State shall provide the Member with access to listings of all eligible State contracts. The original copy of each State contract is a public record on file with the State. Pricing information, specifications and terms and conditions for most State contracts are available on the SPIRIT website: www.spirit.az.gov. 2. The specifications for the materials and services will be determined by the State Procurement Administrator or delegated State agencies. 3. The State shall conduct the procurement in compliance with the Arizona Procurement Code, AR.S. Title 41, Chapter 23, and its Rules, AAC. Title 2, Chapter 7. 4. The State will identify the Member as an eligible participant in any solicitation intended for general use by State Cooperative Members. In addition, the State may invite the State Cooperative Member to participate in certain exclusive solicitations. ARIZONA STATE PURCHASING COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT Page 1 of 4 Only State Cooperative Members indicating an interest in participating in these exclusive solicitations will be eligible to participate in the resulting State contracts. 5. The Member shall not use a State contract to obtain improper concessions, including lower prices, from State contractors or any other suppliers for the same or similar materials or services. The Member is also prohibited from participating in any organization or group that seeks to obtain such concessions from State contractors or other suppliers based on State contracts. 6. The State Cooperative Member shall: a. Insure that purchase orders issued against eligible State contracts are in accordance with the terms and prices established in the State contract. b. Make timely payments to the State contractor for all materials and services received in accordance with the terms and conditions of the State contract. Payment for materials or services and inspection and acceptance of materials or services ordered by the State Cooperative Member shall be the exclusive obligation of such unit. c. Be responsible for the ordering of materials or services under this Agreement. The State shall not be liable in any fashion for any violation by the Member of this Agreement, and the Member shall hold the State harmless from any liability which may arise from action or inaction of the State Cooperative Member relating to this Agreement or its subject matter. d. The exercise of any rights or remedies by the Member shall be the exclusive obligation of such unit; however, the State, as the contract administrator and without subjecting itself to any liability, may join in the resolution of any controversy should it choose to do so. 7. The Eligible Procurement Unit shall endeavor to utilize State contracts to the fullest extent possible. That is, to purchase all items covered under exclusive contracts and to not fracture purchases by means of utilizing line items from alternate contracts. Such practices weaken the State's ability to negotiate lowest possible volume prices. 8. Failure of the Member to secure performance from the State contractor in accordance with the terms and conditions of its purchase order does not necessarily require the State to exercise its own rights or remedies. 9. This Agreement shall take effect upon execution by the Parties and shall be for an initial period of one (1) year, 90mmencing on July 1, 2007, and ending June 30, 2008.
