8.1 LIABILITY - VENDOR WILL BE LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY
AND ALL PROPERTY LOSS, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY,
INCLUDING DEATH, TO ANY AND ALL PERSONS, OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER,
WHETHER REAL OR ASSERTED, TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENT

VENDOR, ITS OFFICERS, AGENTS, SERVANTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR
SUBCONTRACTORS.
8.2 GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION - VENDOR HEREBY COVENANTS AND
AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS AND DEFEND CITY, ITS OFFICERS,
AGENTS, SERVANTS AND EMPLOYEES, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS

EITHER PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS (INCLUDING ALLEGED DAMAGE OR LOSS TO
VENDOR'S BUSINESS AND ANY RESULTING LOST PROFITS) AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH, TO ANY AND ALL PERSONS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE

AGENTS, SERVANTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR SUBCONTRACTORS.

defend, settle, or pay, at its own cost and expense, any claim or action against City for
infringement of any patent, copyright, trade mark, trade secret, or similar property right
arising from City’s use of the software and/or documentation in accordance with this
Agreement, it being understood that this agreement to defend, settle or pay will not apply if
City modifies or misuses the software and/or documentation. So long as Vendor bears the
cost and expense of payment for claims or actions against City pursuant to this section,
Vendor will have the right to conduct the defense of any such claim or action and all
negotiations for its settlement or compromise and to settle or compromise any such claim;
however, City will have the right to fully participate in any and all such settlement,
negotiations, or lawsuit as necessary to protect City’s interest, and City agrees to cooperate
with Vendor in doing so. In the event City, for whatever reason, assumes the responsibility
for payment of costs and expenses for any claim or action brought against City for
infringement arising under this Agreement, City will have the sole right to conduct the
defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise and
to settle or compromise any such claim; however, Vendor will fully participate and cooperate

eliminate Vendor’s duty to indemnify City under this Agreement. If the software and/or
documentation or any part thereof is held to infringe and the use thereof is enjoined or
restrained or, if as a result of a settlement or compromise, such use is materially adversely
restricted, Vendor will, at its own expense and as City's sole remedy, either: (a) procure for
City the right to continue to use the software and/or documentation; or (b) modify the
software and/or documentation to make it non-infringing, provided that such modification
does not materially adversely affect City's authorized use of the software and/or
documentation; or (c) replace the software and/or documentation with equally suitable,
compatible, and functionally equivalent non-infringing software and/or documentation at no
additional charge to City; or (d) if none of the foregoing alternatives is reasonably available
to Vendor terminate this Agreement, and refund all amounts paid to Vendor by City,
subsequent to which termination City may seek any and all remedies available to City under
law.

package within the stated deadline and in accordance with the bid specifications.
4.2 Bids that do not receive 50% or more of the total available points, excluding the points for price,
will be deemed non-responsive.
4.3 The following criteria will be used to determine the best value:
4.3.1 Cost of service – up to 50 points.
4.3.2 Availability of resources to perform services, with qualified personnel per section 5.0 – up
to 20 points.
4.3.3 Contractor’s qualification and certification per section 6.0 – up to 10 points.

deemed in the best interest of the City. The City also reserves the right to reject the bid of a
bidder who has previously failed to perform properly or complete on time agreements of a similar
nature.

record of bidder with the City itself, another municipal corporation of like size, or priv ate

interest inasmuch as Vendor failure or inability to furnish items within the prescribed time can

located in the City's six-county marketplace that includes the counties of Tarrant, Dallas, Denton,
Johnson, Parker, and Wise.

Equity participation.
20.11 Failure to submit the Business Equity participation information or the detailed explanation of the

Business Equity goal, may render the proposal non-responsive.

8. Liability and Indemnification.
8.1 LIABILITY - VENDOR WILL BE LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY
AND ALL PROPERTY LOSS, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY,
INCLUDING DEATH, TO ANY AND ALL PERSONS, OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER,
WHETHER REAL OR ASSERTED, TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENT
ACT(S) OR OMISSION(S), MALFEASANCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF
VENDOR, ITS OFFICERS, AGENTS, SERVANTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR
SUBCONTRACTORS.
8.2 GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION - VENDOR HEREBY COVENANTS AND
AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS AND DEFEND CITY, ITS OFFICERS,
AGENTS, SERVANTS AND EMPLOYEES, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS
OR LAWSUITS OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, WHETHER REAL OR ASSERTED, FOR
EITHER PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS (INCLUDING ALLEGED DAMAGE OR LOSS TO
VENDOR'S BUSINESS AND ANY RESULTING LOST PROFITS) AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH, TO ANY AND ALL PERSONS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE
NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OR MALFEASANCE OF VENDOR, ITS OFFICERS,
AGENTS, SERVANTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR SUBCONTRACTORS.
8.3 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION – Vendor agrees to
defend, settle, or pay, at its own cost and expense, any claim or action against City for
infringement of any patent, copyright, trade mark, trade secret, or similar property right
arising from City’s use of the software and/or documentation in accordance with this
Agreement, it being understood that this agreement to defend, settle or pay will not apply if
City modifies or misuses the software and/or documentation. So long as Vendor bears the
cost and expense of payment for claims or actions against City pursuant to this section,
Vendor will have the right to conduct the defense of any such claim or action and all DRAFTITB 22-0017 Heavy Duty Repair and Services
Page 38 of 52
negotiations for its settlement or compromise and to settle or compromise any such claim;
however, City will have the right to fully participate in any and all such settlement,
negotiations, or lawsuit as necessary to protect City’s interest, and City agrees to cooperate
with Vendor in doing so. In the event City, for whatever reason, assumes the responsibility
for payment of costs and expenses for any claim or action brought against City for
infringement arising under this Agreement, City will have the sole right to conduct the
defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise and
to settle or compromise any such claim; however, Vendor will fully participate and cooperate
with City in defense of such claim or action. City agrees to give Vendor timely written notice
of any such claim or action, with copies of all papers City may receive relating thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, City’s assumption of payment of costs or expenses will not
eliminate Vendor’s duty to indemnify City under this Agreement. If the software and/or
documentation or any part thereof is held to infringe and the use thereof is enjoined or
restrained or, if as a result of a settlement or compromise, such use is materially adversely
restricted, Vendor will, at its own expense and as City's sole remedy, either: (a) procure for
City the right to continue to use the software and/or documentation; or (b) modify the
software and/or documentation to make it non-infringing, provided that such modification
does not materially adversely affect City's authorized use of the software and/or
documentation; or (c) replace the software and/or documentation with equally suitable,
compatible, and functionally equivalent non-infringing software and/or documentation at no
additional charge to City; or (d) if none of the foregoing alternatives is reasonably available
to Vendor terminate this Agreement, and refund all amounts paid to Vendor by City,
subsequent to which termination City may seek any and all remedies available to City under
law.

Commitment:
ALL BUSINESS EQUITY FIRMS MUST BE CERTIFIED BEFORE CONTRACT AWARD
Failure to complete this form, in its entirety, and received by the Purchasing Division no later than 2:00 p.m. on the second City business day after bid opening, exclusive of bid opening
date, will result in the bid being considered non-responsive to bid specifications. Exception: CFA, ICA, and CDBG projects, documents will be submitted to the City Project Manager if
publicly bid or to the Developer if privately bid.
The undersigned Prime/Offeror agrees to enter into a formal agreement with the Business Equity firm(s) listed in this utilization schedule, conditioned upon execution of a contract with the
City of Fort Worth (Exception: Developer projects). The intentional and/or knowing misrepresentation of facts is grounds for consideration of disqualification and will result in the bid being
considered non-responsive to bid specifications.
Business Equity firms listed toward meeting the project goal must be located in the City's marketplace at the time of bid or the business has a Significant Business Presence in the
Marketplace. The marketplace is the City of Fort Worth including portions of Denton, Parker, Wise, and all of Tarrant, Dallas, and Johnson counties.
Certified means those firms, located within the Marketplace, that have been determined to be a bona-fide minority or women business enterprise by the North Central Texas
Regional Certification Agency (NCTRCA), Dallas/Fort Worth Minority Supplier Development Council (D/FW MSDC) and Women's Business Council-Southwest (WBCS).
If hauling services are utilized, the Prime/Offeror will be given credit as long as the Business Equity firm listed owns and operates at least one fully licensed and operational truck to be
used on the contract. The Business Equity firms may lease trucks from another Business Equity firm, including Business Equity owner-operated, and receive full Business Equity
credit. The Business Equity firm may lease trucks from non-Business Equity firms, including owner-operated, but will only receive credit for the fees and commissions earned by the
Business Equity as outlined in the lease agreement. Note: For DBE Goals, 60% of the services count towards the goal. Please see below.
Counting DBE Participation: If materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, count 100 percent of the cost of the materials or supplies towards the goal. If the materials or
supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer, count 60 percent of the cost of the materials and supplies toward the DBE goal. When materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE
neither a manufacturer nor a regular dealer, count the entire amount of fees or commissions charged for assistance in the procurement of the materials and supplies or fees or
transportation charges for the delivery of the materials or supplies delivered to the job site. In all cases, the Prime/Offeror is responsible to identify the amounts to be used toward the
committed DBE goal.

Please note that only certified Business Equity firms will be counted to meet the Business Equity goal. Prime/Offerors are required to identify ALL subcontractors/suppliers,
regardless of status; i.e., Business Equity firms and non-Business Equity firms. Prime/Offerors must identify by tier level all subcontractors/suppliers. Tier: means the level of
subcontracting below the Prime/Offeror i.e. a direct payment from the Prime/Offeror to a subcontractor is considered 1st tier, a payment by a subcontractor to its supplier is considered
2nd tier. Business Equity firms are to be listed before non-Business Equity firms. The Prime/Offeror is responsible to provide proof of payment of all tiered sub-contractors/suppliers
identified as a Business Equity firm and counting those dollars towards meeting the contract committed goal.
Certified Business Equity Prime/Offeror Contractors counting their self-performance towards meeting the contract goal, must be certified within those NAICS commodity codes with a
certifying agency acceptable by the City of Fort Worth. Certified Business Equity Prime/Offeror counting self-performing services towards the goal, the service(s) to be performed
should be listed first on the Utilization form.
