13. Risk of Loss. Matters of inspection and acceptance are addressed in s. 215.422, F.S. Until <br /> acceptance, risk of loss or damage shall remain with the Contractor. The Contractor shall be <br /> responsible for filing, processing, and collecting all damage claims. To assist the Contractor <br /> with damage claims, the Customer shall: record any evidence of visible damage on all copies of <br /> the delivering carrier's Bill of Lading; report damages to the carrier and the Contractor; and <br /> provide the Contractor with a copy of the carrier's Bill of Lading and damage inspection report. <br /> When a Customer rejects a product, Contractor shall remove it from the premises within ten days <br /> after notification or rejection. Upon rejection notification, the risk of loss of rejected or non- <br /> conforming product shall remain with the Contractor. Rejected product not removed by the <br /> Contractor within ten days shall be deemed abandoned by the Contractor, and the Customer shall <br /> have the right to dispose of it as its own property. Contractor shall reimburse the Customer for <br /> costs and expenses incurred in storing or effecting removal or disposition of rejected product. <br /> 14. Transaction Fee. The State of Florida has instituted MyFloridaMarketPlace, a statewide <br /> eProcurement System ("System"). Pursuant to section 287.057(23), Florida Statutes (2002), all <br /> payments shall be assessed a Transaction Fee of one percent (1.0%), which the Contractor shall <br /> pay to the State, unless exempt pursuant to 60A-1.032, F.A.C. <br /> For payments within the State accounting system (FLAIR or its successor), the Transaction Fee <br /> shall, when possible, be automatically deducted from payments to the Contractor. If automatic <br /> deduction is not possible, the Contractor shall pay the Transaction Fee pursuant to Rule 60A- <br /> 1.031(2), F.A.C. By submission of these reports and corresponding payments, Contractor <br /> certifies their correctness. All such reports and payments shall be subject to audit by the State or <br /> its designee. - <br /> Contractor shall receive a credit for any Transaction Fee paid by the Contractor for the purchase <br /> of any item(s) if such item(s) are returned to the Contractor through no fault, act, or omission of <br /> the Contractor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Transaction Fee is non-refundable when an <br /> item is rejected or returned, or declined, due to the Contractor's failure to perform or comply <br /> with specifications or requirements of the agreement. <br /> Failure to comply with these requirements shall constitute grounds for declaring the Contractor <br /> in default and recovering reprocurement costs from the Contractor in addition to all outstanding <br /> fees. CONTRACTORS DELINQUENT IN PAYING TRANSACTION FEES MAY BE <br /> SUBJECT TO BEING REMOVED FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT <br /> SERVICES' VENDOR LIST AS PROVIDED IN RULE 60A-1.006, F.A.C. <br /> 15. Invoicing and Payment. Invoices shall contain the Contract number, purchase order number <br /> if applicable, and the appropriate vendor identification number. The State may require any other <br /> information from the Contractor that the State deems necessary to verify any purchase order <br /> placed under the Contract. <br /> At the State's option, Contractors may be required to invoice electronically pursuant to <br /> guidelines of the Department of Management Services. Current guidelines require that <br /> Contractor supply electronic invoices in lieu of paper-based invoices for those transactions <br /> processed through the system. Electronic invoices shall be submitted to the Customer through the <br /> Ariba Supplier Network (ASN) in one of the following mechanisms — EDI 810, cXML, or web- <br /> based invoice entry within the ASN. <br /> 26 <br />
