SUPPLIER COMMITMENT

U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance asks each supplier to make three basic commitments to optimize the effectiveness of the program for government agencies:

Corporate Commitment
A commitment that U.S. Communities has the support of senior management and that the U.S. Communities is the primary offering to local government agencies, state, higher education and non-profits nationwide. The supplier shall make its existing local public agency clients aware of its U.S. Communities contract and upon the local public agency's request, such agency will be transitioned to the supplier's U.S. Communities contract.

Pricing Commitment
A commitment that the supplier's U.S. Communities pricing is the lowest available pricing (net to buyer) to local agencies nationwide and a further commitment that, if a local agency is otherwise eligible for lower pricing through any other supplier contract, the supplier will match the pricing under the U.S. Communities program.

Sales Commitment
A commitment that the supplier will aggressively market U.S. Communities nationwide and the sales force will be trained, engaged and committed to offering U.S. Communities to local government agencies, state, higher education and non-profits nationwide with a further commitment that all U.S. Communities sales be accurately and timely reported to the U.S. Communities administrative support office.
