Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 13 of 24
Federal Changes - Contractor shall at all times comply with all applicable FTA
regulations, policies, procedures and directives, including without limitation those listed
directly or by reference in the Master Agreement between Purchaser and FTA, as they
may be amended or promulgated from time to time during the term of this contract.
Contractor's failure to so comply shall constitute a material breach of this contract.
5. TERMINATION
a. Termination for Convenience (General Provision) The City may terminate this
contract, in whole or in part, at any time by written notice to the Contractor when it is in
the Government's best interest. The Contractor shall be paid its costs, including
contract close-out costs, and profit on work performed up to the time of termination.
The Contractor shall promptly submit its termination claim to the City to be paid the
Contractor. If the Contractor has any property in its possession belonging to the City,
the Contractor will account for the same, and dispose of it in the manner the City
directs.
b. Termination for Default [Breach or Cause] (General Provision) If the Contractor
does not deliver supplies in accordance with the contract delivery schedule, or, if the
contract is for services, the Contractor fails to perform in the manner called for in the
contract, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of the contract,
the City may terminate this contract for default. Termination shall be effected by
serving a notice of termination on the contractor setting forth the manner in which the
Contractor is in default. The contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies
delivered and accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner of
performance set forth in the contract.
If it is later determined by the City that the Contractor had an excusable reason for not
performing, such as a strike, fire, or flood, events which are not the fault of or are
beyond the control of the Contractor, the City, after setting up a new delivery of
performance schedule, may allow the Contractor to continue work, or treat the
termination as a termination for convenience.
c. Opportunity to Cure (General Provision) The City in its sole discretion may, in the
case of a termination for breach or default, allow the Contractor [an appropriately short
period of time] in which to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will
state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions
If Contractor fails to remedy to the City's satisfaction the breach or default of any of the
terms, covenants, or conditions of this Contract within [ten (10) days] after receipt by
Contractor of written notice from the City setting forth the nature of said breach or
default, the City shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further
obligation to Contractor. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate
to preclude the City from also pursuing all available remedies against Contractor and
its sureties for said breach or default.
d. Waiver of Remedies for any Breach In the event that the City elects to waive its
remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this
Contract, such waiver by the City shall not limit the City's remedies for any succeeding
breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract.
e. Termination for Default (Supplies and Service) If the Contractor fails to deliver
supplies or to perform the services within the time specified in this contract or any
extension or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract,
the City may terminate this contract for default. The City shall terminate by delivering
Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 14 of 24
to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the default. The
Contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies delivered and accepted, or
services performed in accordance with the manner or performance set forth in this
contract.
If, after termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the
Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the
same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the City.

9. GOVERNMENT -WIDE DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION (NONPROCUREMENT)
Background and Applicability
In conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget and other affected Federal
agencies, DOT published an update to 49 CFR Part 29 on November 26, 2003. This
government -wide regulation implements Executive Order 12549, Debarment and
Suspension, Executive Order 12689, Debarment and Suspension, and 31 U.S.C. 6101
note (Section 2455, Public Law 103-355, 108 Stat. 3327).
The provisions of Part 29 apply to all grantee contracts and subcontracts at any level
expected to equal or exceed $25,000 as well as any contract or subcontract (at any level)
for Federally required auditing services. 49 CFR 29.220(b). This represents a change
from prior practice in that the dollar threshold for application of these rules has been
lowered from $100,000 to $25,000. These are contracts and subcontracts referred to in
the regulation as "covered transactions."
Grantees, contractors, and subcontractors (at any level) that enter into covered
transactions are required to verify that the entity (as well as its principals and affiliates)
they propose to contract or subcontract with is not excluded or disqualified. They do this
by (a) Checking the Excluded Parties List System, (b) Collecting a certification from that
person, or (c) Adding a clause or condition to the contract or subcontract. This represents
a change from prior practice in that certification is still acceptable but is no longer required.
49 CFR 29.300.
Grantees, contractors, and subcontractors who enter into covered transactions also must
require the entities they contract with to comply with 49 CFR 29, subpart C and include
this requirement in their own subsequent covered transactions (i.e., the requirement flows
down to subcontracts at all levels).
Clause Language
The following clause language is suggested, not mandatory. It incorporates the optional
method of verifying that contractors are not excluded or disqualified by certification.
Suspension and Debarment
This contract is a covered transaction for purposes of 49 CFR Part 29. As such,
the contractor is required to verify that none of the contractor, its principals, as
defined at 49 CFR 29.995, or affiliates, as defined at 49 CFR 29.905, are excluded
or disqualified as defined at 49 CFR 29.940 and 29.945.
The contractor is required to comply with 49 CFR 29, Subpart C and must include
the requirement to comply with 49 CFR 29, Subpart C in any lower tier covered
transaction it enters into.
By signing and submitting its bid or proposal, the bidder or proposer certifies as follows:
The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact relied upon by {insert
agency name). If it is later determined that the bidder or proposer knowingly rendered an
erroneous certification, in addition to remedies available to {insert agency name), the
Federal Government may pursue available remedies, including but not limited to
Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 17 of 24
suspension and/or debarment. The bidder or proposer agrees to comply with the
requirements of 49 CFR 29, Subpart C while this offer is valid and throughout the period of
any contract that may arise from this offer. The bidder or proposer further agrees to
include a provision requiring such compliance in its lower tier covered transactions.
10. BREACHES AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Disputes - Disputes arising in the performance of this Contract which are not resolved by
agreement of the parties shall be decided in writing by the authorized representative of
City's [title of employee]. This decision shall be final and conclusive unless within [ten
(10)] days from the date of receipt of its copy, the Contractor mails or otherwise furnishes
a written appeal to the [title of employee]. In connection with any such appeal, the
Contractor shall be afforded an opportunity to be heard and to offer evidence in support of
its position. The decision of the [title of employee] shall be binding upon the Contractor
and the Contractor shall abide be the decision.
Performance During Dispute - Unless otherwise directed by City, Contractor shall
continue performance under this Contract while matters in dispute are being resolved.
Claims for Damages - Should either party to the Contract suffer injury or damage to
person or property because of any act or omission of the party or of any of his employees,
agents or others for whose acts he is legally liable, a claim for damages therefor shall be
made in writing to such other party within a reasonable time after the first observance of
such injury of damage.
Remedies - Unless this contract provides otherwise, all claims, counterclaims, disputes
and other matters in question between the City and the Contractor arising out of or relating
to this agreement or its breach will be decided by arbitration if the parties mutually agree,
or in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State in which the City is located.
Rights and Remedies - The duties and obligations imposed by the Contract Documents
and the rights and remedies available thereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation
of any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law. No
action or failure to act by the City, (Architect) or Contractor shall constitute a waiver of any
right or duty afforded any of them under the Contract, nor shall any such action or failure
to act constitute an approval of or acquiescence in any breach thereunder, except as may
be specifically agreed in writing.
11. LOBBYING
Modifications have been made to the Clause pursuant to Section 10 of the Lobbying
Disclosure Act of 1995, P.L. 104-65 [to be codified at 2 U.S.C. § 1601, et seq.]
- Lobbying Certification and Disclosure of Lobbying Activities for third party contractors

14. PATENT AND RIGHTS IN DATA
CONTRACTS INVOLVING EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, OR RESEARCH
WORK.
A. Rights in Data - This following requirements apply to each contract involving
experimental, developmental or research work:
(1) The term "subject data" used in this clause means recorded information, whether or
not copyrighted, that is delivered or specified to be delivered under the contract.
The term includes graphic or pictorial delineation in media such as drawings or
photographs; text in specifications or related performance or design -type
documents; machine forms such as punched cards, magnetic tape, or computer
memory printouts; and information retained in computer memory. Examples
Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 20 of 24
include, but are not limited to: computer software, engineering drawings and
associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical
reports, catalog item identifications, and related information. The term "subject
data" does not include financial reports, cost analyses, and similar information
incidental to contract administration.
(2) The following restrictions apply to all subject data first produced in the performance
of the contract to which this Attachment has been added:
(a) Except for its own internal use, the Purchaser or Contractor may not publish or
reproduce subject data in whole or in part, or in any manner or form, nor may
the Purchaser or Contractor authorize others to do so, without the written
consent of the Federal Government, until such time as the Federal Government
may have either released or approved the release of such data to the public;
this restriction on publication, however, does not apply to any contract with an
academic institution.
(b) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. § 18.34 and 49 C.F.R. § 19.36, the Federal
Government reserves a royalty -free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to
reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, for
"Federal Government purposes," any subject data or copyright described in
subsections (2)(b)1 and (2)(b)2 of this clause below. As used in the previous
sentence, "for Federal Government purposes," means use only for the direct
purposes of the Federal Government. Without the copyright owner's consent,
the Federal Government may not extend its Federal license to any other party.
1. Any subject data developed under that contract, whether or not a
copyright has been obtained; and
2. Any rights of copyright purchased by the Purchaser or Contractor using
Federal assistance in whole or in part provided by FTA..
(c) When FTA awards Federal assistance for experimental, developmental, or
research work, it is FTA's general intention to increase transportation
knowledge available to the public, rather than to restrict the benefits resulting
from the work to participants in that work. Therefore, unless FTA determines
otherwise, the Purchaser and the Contractor performing experimental,
developmental, or research work required by the underlying contract to which
this Attachment is added agrees to permit FTA to make available to the public,
either FTA's license in the copyright to any subject data developed in the
course of that contract, or a copy of the subject data first produced under the
contract for which a copyright has not been obtained. If the experimental,
developmental, or research work, which is the subject of the underlying
contract, is not completed for any reason whatsoever, all data developed under
that contract shall become subject data as defined in subsection (a) of this
clause and shall be delivered as the Federal Government may direct. This
subsection (c) , however, does not apply to adaptations of automatic data
processing equipment or programs for the Purchaser or Contractor's use
whose costs are financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided
by FTA for transportation capital projects.
(d) Unless prohibited by state law, upon request by the Federal Government, the
Purchaser and the Contractor agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the
Federal Government, its officers, agents, and employees acting within the
Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 21 of 24
scope of their official duties against any liability, including costs and expenses,
resulting from any willful or intentional violation by the Purchaser or Contractor
of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the
publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data
furnished under that contract. Neither the Purchaser nor the Contractor shall be
required to indemnify the Federal Government for any such liability arising out
of the wrongful act of any employee, official, or agents of the Federal
Government.
(e) Nothing contained in this clause on rights in data shall imply a license to the
Federal Government under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope
of any license or other right otherwise granted to the Federal Government
under any patent.
(f) Data developed by the Purchaser or Contractor and financed entirely without
using Federal assistance provided by the Federal Government that has been
incorporated into work required by the underlying contract to which this
Attachment has been added is exempt from the requirements of subsections
(b), (c), and (d) of this clause, provided that the Purchaser or Contractor
identifies that data in writing at the time of delivery of the contract work.
(g) Unless FTA determines otherwise, the Contractor agrees to include these
requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research
work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA.
(3) Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing,
irrespective of the Contractor's status (i.e., a large business, small business, state
government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization,
institution of higher education, individual, etc.), the Purchaser and the Contractor
agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that
invention due the Federal Government as described in
U.S. Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by
Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants,
Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R. Part 401.
(4) The Contractor also agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for
experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with
Federal assistance provided by FTA.
B. Patent Rights - The following requirements apply to each contract involving
experimental, developmental, or research work:
(1) General - If any invention, improvement, or discovery is conceived or first actually
reduced to practice in the course of or under the contract to which this Attachment
has been added, and that invention, improvement, or discovery is patentable under
the laws of the United States of America or any foreign country, the Purchaser and
Contractor agree to take actions necessary to provide immediate notice and a
detailed report to the party at a higher tier until FTA is ultimately notified.
(2) Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing,
irrespective of the Contractor's status (a large business, small business, state
government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization,
institution of higher education, individual), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree
to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention
Professional Services Agreement Work Order Type
7424 Appraisal Services Page 22 of 24
due the Federal Government as described in U.S. Department of Commerce
regulations, 'Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small
Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative
