Cobb County (“County” or “Owner”) is soliciting bids from qualified vendors (“Vendor” or “Contractor”) to provide an annual contract for Pest Control Services for selected Cobb County Government Facilities per the specifications contained herein. The list of facilities includes multiple departments, in multiple locations, but all facilities are located within the geographic boundaries of Cobb County.

In addition to the contract term anticipated above and any termination for cause provision, the Owner reserves the right to cancel any contract with the Contractor at any time for its convenience and without cause by providing at least 30 days written notice to Contractor in which the date of termination shall be set forth. In the event such of cancellation of the contract, Contractor shall be entitled to payment for all approved services performed and materials provided prior to the termination date set forth in the notice of intent to cancel the contract, but shall be entitled to no further compensation or damages of any sort, including but not limited to lost profits or consequential damages. The Owner may also in its discretion and without any liability modify the contract to reduce or exclude certain services or materials to be provided in the contract and the price shall be equitably adjusted.

Prices shall remain firm for the duration of the initial contract term. Reasonable price changes based on market conditions and price/cost analysis may be made after the initial contract term. The Contractor shall supply documentation satisfactory to Cobb County, such as: documented changes to Producers Price Indexes; Consumer Price Indexes; or a manufacturer’s published notification of price change(s).

Cobb County will evaluate this information to determine if revising the pricing is considered fair and reasonable to the satisfaction of Cobb County. Requests for any such change must be received in writing by the Cobb County Purchasing Department thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the original contract term. The County may cancel the contract if the price increase request is not approved.
