2.2 ADMINISTRATION OF CONTRACT


GA will maintain Contract information and pricing and make it available on GA’s website. The Contract prices are the maximum price Contractor can charge. The Contractor may also offer volume discounts to Purchasers.

A Contractor may propose a revision to its offerings to reflect changed Products appropriate to the scope of the Contract, and may propose such new Products with associated prices to the GA Contract Specialist for approval. The Contract Specialist has the sole discretion in approval of addition of revised offerings and pricing. New or changed Products proposed by Contractor must meet the requirements established in this solicitation document or subsequent revisions. If approved by GA, the new Products will be added to the Contract by written amendment.



For the term of the Contract, pricing for all Products will be no greater than the prices quoted in the Bidder’s Response. If, however, during any term of the Contract lower prices and rates become effective for like quantities of Products under similar terms and conditions, through reduction in Contractor’s list prices, promotional discounts, or other circumstances, Purchasers must be given immediate benefit of such lower prices and rates.
