However, the Contract does <br />not guarantee any minimum or maximum number of purchases will be made. It only <br />indicates that if purchases are made for the materials or services contained in the <br />Contract, they will be purchased from the Contractor awarded that item if the Contractor <br />can meet all the delivery requirements of the County. Orders will only be placed when <br />the County identifies a need and proper authorization and documentation have been <br />approved. <br /> <br />6.7.2 County reserves the right to cancel Purchase Orders within a reasonable period of time <br />after issuance. Should a Purchase Order be canceled, the County agrees to reimburse the <br />Contractor for actual and documentable costs incurred by the Contractor in response to <br />the Purchase Order. The County will not reimburse the Contractor for any costs incurred <br />after receipt of County notice of cancellation, or for lost profits, shipment of product prior <br />to issuance of Purchase Order, etc. <br /> <br />6.7.3 Contractors agree to accept verbal notification of cancellation of Purchase Orders from <br />the County Procurement Officer with written notification to follow. By submitting a bid <br />in response to this Invitation for Bids, the Contractor specifically acknowledges to be <br />bound by this cancellation policy. <br /> <br />6.8 BACKGROUND CHECK: <br /> <br />Contractors need to be aware that there may be multiple background checks (Sheriff’s Office, <br />County Attorney's Office, Courts as well as Maricopa County general government) to determine if <br />the respondents employees are acceptable for the contractor to do business with the County. This <br />applies to (but is not limited to) the company and sub-contractors. Employees or others who fail to <br />pass these checks shall not be allowed to work on County projects. Failure to meet these <br />requirements may lead to termination of the contract. <br /> <br />6.9 SUSPENSION OF WORK <br /> <br />The Procurement Officer may order the Contractor, in writing, to suspend, delay, or interrupt all or <br />any part of the work of this contract for the period of time that the Procurement Officer determines <br />appropriate for the convenience of the County. No adjustment shall be made under this clause for <br />any suspension, delay, or interruption to the extent that performance would have been so <br />suspended, delayed, or interrupted by any other cause, including the fault or negligence of the <br />Contractor. No request for adjustment under this clause shall be granted unless the claim, in an <br />amount stated, is asserted in writing as soon as practicable after the termination of the suspension, <br />delay, or interruption, but not later than the date of final payment under the contract. <br /> <br />
