REQUEST FOR QUOTATION
Tennessee Technological University request bids for air filters, as detailed on the attached Cost Sheet, for

performance but are not intended to restrict competition or to exclude products that meet or exceed the stated
requirements.
Pricing
Prices submitted by Vendor shall remain firm for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of the Contract.
After the initial one-year period, the Vendor may request a price increase only to the extent such increase has

or reject any requested price increase and may, at its sole discretion, rebid the Contract.
