Common use of Compensation for Maintenance Clause in Contracts

Compensation for Maintenance. City will compensate Contractor for monthly routine maintenance at the contract monthly unit price (lump sum). Said compensation shall include all labor, materials, equipment, overhead and profits to perform the routine service and no extra compensation will be allowed. Extraordinary maintenance shall be invoiced at the established rates per Exhibit C of the Agreement and shall include all labor, materials, equipment and profit. All items not covered shall require a negotiated price and approval by the Director of Public Works or authorized representative. All extraordinary maintenance requires City authorization prior to beginning the work unless the work is an emergency repair required to restore the safe operation of the traffic signal system. Contractor shall still submit the appropriate documentation for subsequent authorization of the emergency work including photos of any visible damage with details of any final repairs that might be required including a schedule for completion. City reserves the right to separately bid extraordinary maintenance work to other firms in the event a negotiated price or schedule of completing repairs cannot be reached which is acceptable to both parties or is deemed by the City to exceed the terms of the current Contract. Contractor may be required to assist or support other firms selected by the City as requested.
