Ordering, Delivery, and Payment
Procedures contained in this section will be used by agencies and vendors to provide

between the purchaser and R. D. Ward only. The contract implies no duties or
responsibilities by the Project Coordinator or the Florida Department of Transportation.
The terms and conditions of the said contract are to be administered and enforced by
and between the purchaser and bidder.
Ordering Instructions
All orders placed with R. D. Ward should be accompanied by an Agency Purchase
Order. Please submit a separate order form (See Exhibit A - sample orderform) for
each vehicle. Each order form contains:
The base vehicle price
Seating and wheelchair station prices
Paint scheme prices
Individual option prices
The base vehicle is a modified van conversion on 3500 Dodge Maxi Van chassis with a
5.91- (360 CID) gasoline engine. It will have a manual door with a standard driver's seat
and wheelchair lift with lift door. It will also include all standard equipment and required
options per the specifications.
Most agencies already have an idea of the type and number of seats/wheelchair
stations needed to meet their floor plan requirements. Those agencies that have
already determined their floor plan requirements should fax a copy of the proposed
layout to R. D. Ward for verification prior to submitting their order(s). Agencies requiring
assistance with floor plan layout should call R. D. Ward and discuss their needs. R. D.
Ward will develop a proposed floor plan based on the agency's needs and fax a copy to
the agency for verification prior to the agency submitting the order.
Standard passenger seats will be the Freedman Feather Weight Mid or High Back
including a "Knee Saver" backrest design. Fold -a -way seats will be the Freedman 3-
Step seat.
An illustration of the basic paint schemes (Exhibit B) and a description of the individual
options (Exhibit C) are also being provided to assist you in compiling your order.
After determining a floor plan and the individual options, place the number of desired
items in the quantity column. Multiply the dollar figure in the cost column by the number
of items in the corresponding quantity column to arrive at a total cost per item. Enter
the total in the total cost column. Add the figures in the total cost column to arrive at the
grand total for the vehicle. The grand total will be the figure used on the agency's
purchase order. Agencies may make as many copies as needed of the blank order
form.
R. D. Ward will provide to the agency written confirmation of receipt of its order within
72 hours of receiving the order. At a minimum, the acknowledgment of order will
contain:
• The agency's P.O, number

Delivery
In case of delay in completion of delivery of an agency's vehicle(s) beyond the number
of days allotted in the bid contract, the agency may assess as liquidated damage,
$25.00 per calendar day per vehicle (unless granted an extension in writing).
All work on and delivery of the vehicle(s) will be completed within ninety (90) days of
receipt of chassis from the OEM supplier. Prior to the vehicle(s) being delivered, R. D.
Ward must perform a Post Delivery Inspection. R. D. Ward will notify the agency and
the appropriate FDOT District Representative a minimum of 48 hours in advance to
arrange a delivery time. Each vehicle will be delivered with all vendor/manufacturer's
quality control checklist including road test and final inspection (properly completed and
signed by an authorized plant representative). Other documents that R. D. Ward will
provide at delivery include:
• Manufacture's Certificate of Origin.
• Application for Certificate of Title.
• Bill of Sale.
• Warranty papers (forms, policy, procedures).
• Maintenance manual.
• Spare key(s).
• Operator's manual.
• Invoice (to include contract number, P.O. number, and agency name).
Final Acceptance
A vehicle should be rejected if any of the above items are missing, defective, altered,
incorrect, or incomplete, the agency should reject the vehicle. If a vehicle(s) is
delivered incomplete or contains any defective or damaged parts, the said parts will be
removed and replaced by R. D. Ward. New parts will be furnished and installed by R.
D. Ward at no cost to the agency. In the event work is involved, warranty or otherwise,
to repair or place the vehicle(s) in proper complete condition, such repairs will be made
by an approved firm (please see Exhibit D for warranty provisions).
Delivery of the vehicle(s) by R. D. Ward does not constitute acceptance by the agency.
The vehicle will be considered "accepted" upon passing the inspection and issuance of
an acceptance letter by the agency. The terms of this contract state that an agency has
10 calendar days after receiving vehicle(s) to perform the Post Delivery Inspection and
issue either a "Letter of Acceptance" or a "Letter of Rejection" to R. D. Ward and their
FDOT District Office. The "Letter of Rejection" will state and describe the areas to be
found in noncompliance with the bid specifications and is incomplete or contains any
defective or damaged parts. A vehicle should only be rejected if it fails to comply with
the construction called for in the specifications or if does not have the
equipment/options as ordered. Placing the vehicle (in revenue service will
automatically constitute "acceptance"; however, a "Letter of Acceptance" should still be
sent tc R. D. Ward.
Payment
Within five (5) days after accepting their vehicles(s), agencies should complete all
necessary paperwork required by their FDOT District Office and submit their request for
reimbursement along with the required documentation to their FDOT District
Representative. At a minimum this will include:
• Three original signed FDOT invoices
• Letter of acceptance
• Proof of insurance
• Copy of title application listing FDOT as only lien holder
• Vin number
• Odometer reading
This should allow time to have R. D. Ward paid in full within sixty (60) days of
acceptance. Agencies should note that failure to meet the net 60-day payment terms
could result in the payment of interest and other penalties.

unfamiliar to the Agencies maintenance personnel and operators. As a minimum, the
FVPP expects to receive the following:
Driver orientation/certification
8 hours @ 6 locations annually
Air conditioning/certification
4 hours @ 6 locations annually
Wheelchair lift/ certification
4 hours @ 6 locations annually
