Bid Questions

Question	What about a price increase that occurs after you place an order, but before delivery? Vendors have now gone to pricing parts on the day they were shipped, not ordered. Would we be allowed to bill then current price, not the price when you placed the PO?
Answer	DOT will work with the awarded vendor if there are increases from the suppliers during the contract period. We will need proof of any increases from the suppliers.

Question	Delivery times are unknown and change a lot. Is that going to be a problem?
Answer	DOT will work with vendors on how soon to order to meet our needs and work with vendors on moving delivery dates.

Question	If we were to submit a quote, our payment policies are 30 days net. We do not carry an account for 60 days. If 30 days is acceptable please advise.
Answer	DOT shall pay all approved invoices in arrears within 60 days and in conformance with Iowa Code Section 8A.514. In the event that a claim for payment remains unpaid for 60 days after the DOT receives the invoice relating to the claim, then the state shall pay interest on the unpaid amounts a 1% per month on the unpaid amount of the claim. DOT may pay in less than sixty (60) days, but an election to pay in less than 60 days shall not act as an implied waiver of Iowa Code section 8A.514. No interest shall accrue or be paid on any compensation or other amounts withheld or retained by the DOT under this Agreement.
