The work is to be performed at 2245 Truitt, Memphis, TN 38114, with all pricing structured on an F.O.B. destination basis, meaning the vendor bears all transportation and delivery costs until goods or services reach the designated site.

Performance begins upon execution of the contract and continues on a continuous, open-ended basis with no fixed end date specified. Contractors must comply with all applicable local, state, and federal laws, maintain confidentiality of non-public City information, and assign all rights in deliverables to the City. Subcontracting or assignment requires prior written approval, and all subcontractors must be reported via the B2GNow system. The vendor must carry adequate insurance, avoid conflicts of interest, refrain from public statements about the contract without approval, and retain records for six years after final payment. The City retains full inspection and acceptance authority, and services must be defect-free and fit for purpose. Contractors are required to indemnify the City against liabilities arising from performance and certify they are not debarred, comply with nondiscrimination laws, and do not knowingly employ unauthorized workers. Payment procedures, invoicing systems, and specific accounting codes are not detailed, and no contract value is listed due to incomplete pricing data in the solicitation. Proposals must be submitted electronically via Oracle’s eProcurement system, by hand to the Main Lobby bid drop box, or by mail to the Purchasing Department by the deadline; late submissions will not be accepted.
