Compliance with this obligation is a condition of Contractor’s participation and that of its Subcontractors on this Contract. 3.2.3.2. Payment to Subcontractors Within Fourteen Days The Contractor must make payment to its Subcontractors within 14 days of receipt of payment from the City for each invoice, but only if the Subcontractor has satisfactorily provided goods or services or completed its work or services in accordance with the Contract Documents and provided the Contractor with all of the documents and information required of the Contractor. The Contractor may delay or postpone payment for a to a Subcontractor when the Subcontractor’s work or materials do not comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor is acting in good faith, and not in retaliation for a Subcontractor exercising legal or contractual rights. 3.2.3.2.1.Reporting Failures to Promptly Pay The City posts payments to prime contractors on the web at http://webapps.cityofchicago.org/VCSearchWeb/org/cityofchicago/vcsearch/controller/payme nts/begin.do?agencyId=city. If the Contractor, without reasonable cause, fails to make any payment to its Subcontractors and material suppliers within 14 days after receipt of payment under a City contract, the Contractor shall pay to its Subcontractors and material suppliers, in addition to the payment

Standard Terms and Conditions, 09.10.2013 25 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

due them, interest in the amount of 2% per month, calculated from the expiration of the 14- day period until fully paid. In the event that a Contractor fails to make payment to a Subcontractor within the 14-day period required above, the Subcontractor may notify the City by submitting a report form that may be downloaded from the DPS website at: http://www.cityofchicago.org/content/dam/city/depts/dps/ContractAdministration/StandardF ormsAgreements/Failure_to_Promtly_Pay_Fillable_Form_3_2013.pdf The report will require the Subcontractor to affirm that (a) its invoice to the Contractor was included in the payment request submitted by the contractor to the City and (b) Subcontractor has not, at the time of the report, received payment from the contractor for that invoice. The report must reference the payment (voucher) number posted on-line by the City in the notice of the payment to the contractor. Subcontractors are hereby reminded that per Chapters 1-21, “False Statements,” and 1-22, “False Claims,” of the Municipal Code of Chicago, making false statements or claims to the City are violations of law and subject to a range of penalties including fines and debarment. 3.2.3.2.2.Whistleblower Protection Contractor shall not take any retaliatory action against any Subcontractor for reporting non- payment pursuant to this Sub-Section 3.2.3. Any such retaliatory action is an event of default under this Contract and is subject to the remedies set forth in Section 3.5 hereof, including termination. In addition to those remedies, any retaliatory action by a contractor may result in a contractor being deemed non-responsible for future City contracts or, if, in the sole judgment of the Chief Procurement Officer, such retaliatory action is egregious, the Chief Procurement Officer may initiate debarment proceedings against the contractor. Any such debarment shall be for a period of not less than one year. 3.2.3.3. Liquidated Damages for Failure to Promptly Pay Much of the City’s economic vitality derives from the success of its small businesses. The failure by contractors to pay their subcontractors in a timely manner, therefore, is clearly detrimental to the City. Inasmuch as the actual damages to the City due to such failure are uncertain in amount and difficult to prove, Contractor and City agree that the Chief Procurement Officer may assess liquidated damages against contractors who fail to meet their prompt payment requirements. Such liquidated damages shall be assessed to compensate the City for any and all damage incurred due to the failure of the Contractor to promptly pay its subcontractors, and does not constitute a penalty. Any and all such liquidated damages collected by the City shall be used to improve the administration and outreach efforts of the City’s Small Business Program. 3.2.3.4. Action by the City Upon receipt of a report of a failure to pay, the City will issue notice to the contractor, and provide the contractor with an opportunity to demonstrate reasonable cause for failing to make payment within applicable period set forth in the Contract. The Chief Procurement Officer, in his or her sole judgment, shall determine whether any cause for nonpayment provided by a contractor is reasonable. In the event that the contractor fails to demonstrate reasonable cause for failure to make payment, the City shall notify the contractor that it will assess liquidated damages. Any such liquidated damages will be assessed according to the following schedule: First Unexcused Report: $50 Second Unexcused Report: $100 Third Unexcused Report: $250 Fourth Unexcused Report: $500 3.2.3.5. Direct Payment to Subcontractors By City The CPO may notify the Contractor that payments to the Contractor will be suspended if the CPO has determined that the Contractor has failed to pay any Subcontractor, employee, or workman, for

Standard Terms and Conditions, 09.10.2013 26 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

work performed. If Contractor has not cured a failure to pay a Subcontractor, employee or workman within 10 days after receipt of such notice, the CPO may request the Comptroller to apply any money due, or that may become due, to Contractor under the Contract to the payment of such Subcontractors, workmen, and employees and the effect will be the same, for purposes of payment to Contractor of the Contract Price, as if the City had paid Contractor directly. Further, if such action is otherwise in the City’s best interests, the CPO may (but is not obligated to) request that the Comptroller make direct payments to Subcontractors for monies earned on contracts and the effect will be the same, for purposes of payment to Contractor of the Contract Price, as if the City had paid Contractor directly. The City’s election to exercise or not to exercise its rights under this paragraph shall not in any way affect the liability of the Contractor or its sureties to the City or to any such Subcontractor, workman, or employee upon any bond given in connection with such Contract. 3.2.4. General Price Reduction – Automatic Eligibility for General Price Reductions If at any time after the Bid Opening Date the Contractor makes a general reduction in the price of any goods, services or work covered by the Contract to its customers generally, an equivalent price reduction based on similar quantities and/or considerations shall apply to the Contract for the duration of the contract period (or until the price is further reduced). Such price reduction will be effective at the same time and in the same manner as the reduction in the price to customers generally. For purpose of this provision, a general price reduction will mean any reduction in the price of an article or service offered (1) to Contractor’s customers generally, or (2) in the Contractor's price schedule for the class of customers, i.e., wholesalers, jobbers, retailers, etc., which was used as the basis for bidding on this Contract. An occasional sale at a lower price, or sale of distressed merchandise at a lower price, would not be considered a general price reduction under this provision. The Contractor must invoice at such reduced prices indicating on the invoice that the reduction is pursuant to the General Price Reduction provision of the Contract. The Contractor, in addition, must within 10 calendar days of any general price reduction notify the CPO of such reduction by letter. Failure to do so will be an event of default. Upon receipt of any such notice of a general price reduction all participating Departments will be duly notified by the CPO. Failure to notify the CPO of a General Price Reduction is an event of default, and the City’s remedies shall include a rebate to the City of any overpayments. 3.3. Compliance With All Laws 3.3.1. General Contractor must observe and comply with all applicable federal, state, county and municipal laws, statutes, regulations, codes, ordinances and executive orders, in effect now or later and as amended whether or not they appear in the Contract Documents. Provisions required by law, ordinances, rules, regulations, or executive orders to be inserted in the Contract are deemed inserted in the Contract whether or not they appear in the Contract. Contractor must pay all taxes and obtain all licenses, certificates, and other authorizations required in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Contractor must require all Subcontractors to also do so. Failure to do so is an event of default and may result in the termination of this Contract. 3.3.2. Non-Discrimination 3.3.2.1. Federal Affirmative Action It is an unlawful employment practice for the Contractor (1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, or the terms, conditions, or privileges of his employment, because of such individuals race, color, religion, sex, age, handicap or national origin; or (2) to limit, segregate, or classify his employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of

The Contractor may apply the earned credit certificate on multiple future contract bids during the three-year period in which the certificate is valid, but may only receive one bid incentive for bid evaluation purposes on one contract award. If the Contractor applies the earned credit certificate on multiple contract bids and is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on more than one contract bid, the earned credit certificate shall be applied to the contract bid first to be advertised by the Department of Procurement Services, or if multiple contract bids were advertised on the same date, the earned credit certificate shall be applied only to the contract bid with the greatest dollar value The Contractor shall maintain accurate and detailed books and records necessary to monitor compliance with this section and shall submit such reports as required by the CPO, or the commissioner of the supervising department.

The Contractor must include provisions in all subcontracts requiring its Subcontractors to pay the Base Wage to Covered Employees. The Contractor agrees to provide the City with documentation acceptable to the CPO demonstrating that all Covered Employees, whether employed by the Contractor or by a subcontractor, have been paid the Base Wage, upon the City's request for such documentation. The City may independently audit the Contractor and/or subcontractors to verify compliance herewith.

Not-for-Profit Corporations: If the Contractor is a corporation having Federal tax-exempt status under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is recognized under Illinois not-for-profit law, then the provisions above do not apply. 3.3.3.2. Prevailing Wage Rates Unless this Contract is identified in the Bid Documents as federally funded, if this Contract calls for the construction of a "public work" within the meaning of Illinois Prevailing Wage Act, 820 ILCS 130/.01 et seq. ("the Act"), the Act requires contractors and subcontractors to pay laborers, workers and mechanics performing services on public works projects no less than the current “prevailing rate of wages” (hourly cash wages plus amount for fringe benefits) in the county where the work is performed.

This section does not limit the Contractor's and its Subcontractors' duty to comply with all applicable federal, state, county and municipal laws, statutes, ordinances and executive orders, in effect now or later, and whether or not they appear in this Contract. Non-compliance with these terms and conditions may be used by the City as grounds for the termination of this Contract, and may further affect the Contractor's eligibility for future contract awards. 3.4.

Standard Terms and Conditions, 09.10.2013 38 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

Commissioner does not render a "final decision of the Commissioner" within the prescribed time frame, then the Claim should be deemed denied by the Commissioner. 3.4.2.

The decision of the CPO is final and binding. The sole and exclusive remedy to challenge the decision of the CPO is judicial review by means of a common law writ of certiorari. The administrative process is described more fully in the "Regulations of the Department of Procurement Services for Resolution of Disputes between Contractors and the City of Chicago", which are available in City Hall, 121 N. LaSalle Street, Room 301, Bid and Bond Room, and on-line at: http://www.cityofchicago.org/content/dam/city/depts/dps/RulesRegulations/Dispute_Regulations_200 2.pdf 3.5. Events of Default and Termination 3.5.1. Events of Default In addition to any breach of contract and events of default described within the Contract Documents, the following constitute an event of default: A. Any material misrepresentation, whether negligent or willful and whether in the inducement or in the performance, made by Contractor to the City. B.

Standard Terms and Conditions, 09.10.2013 39 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

default under this Contract the City may also declare a default under any such other agreements. M. Contractor’s repeated or continued violations of City ordinances unrelated to performance under the Contract that in the opinion of the CPO indicate a willful or reckless disregard for City laws and regulations. N. Contractor’s use of a subcontractor that is currently debarred by the City or otherwise ineligible to do business with the City. 3.5.2. Cure or Default Notice The occurrence of any event of default permits the City, at the City(s sole option, to declare Contractor in default. The CPO will give Contractor written notice of the default, either in the form of a cure notice ("Cure Notice"), or, if no opportunity to cure will be granted, a default notice ("Default Notice"). If a Cure Notice is sent, the CPO may in his/her sole discretion will give Contractor an opportunity to cure the default within a specified period of time, which will typically not exceed 30 days unless extended by the CPO. The period of time allowed by the CPO to cure will depend on the nature of the event of default and the Contractor’s ability to cure. In some circumstances the event of default may be of such a nature that it cannot be cured. Failure to cure within the specified time may result in a Default Notice to the Contractor. Whether to issue the Contractor a Default Notice is within the sole discretion of the CPO and neither that decision nor the factual basis for it is subject to review or challenge under the Disputes provision of this Contract If the CPO issues a Default Notice, the CPO will also indicate any present intent the CPO may have to terminate this Contract. The decision to terminate is final and effective upon giving the notice. If the CPO decides not to terminate, this decision will not preclude the CPO from later deciding to terminate the Contract in a later notice, which will be final and effective upon the giving of the notice or on such later date set forth in the Default Notice. When a Default Notice with intent to terminate is given, Contractor must discontinue any Services, unless otherwise directed in the notice. 3.5.3. Remedies After giving a Default Notice, the City may invoke any or all of the following remedies: A. The right to take over and complete the Services, or any part of them, at Contractor(s expense and as agent for Contractor, either directly or through others, and bill Contractor for the cost of the Services, and Contractor must pay the difference between the total amount of this bill and the amount the City would have paid Contractor under the terms and conditions of this Contract for the Services that were assumed by the City as agent for Contractor B. The right to terminate this Contract as to any or all of the Services yet to be performed effective at a time specified by the City; C. The right to seek specific performance, an injunction or any other appropriate equitable remedy; D. The right to seek money damages; E. The right to withhold all or any part of Contractor's compensation under this Contract; F. The right to deem Contractor non-responsible in future contracts to be awarded by the City. 3.5.4. Non-Exclusivity of Remedies The remedies under the terms of this Contract are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided, but each and every such remedy is cumulative and is in addition to any other remedies,

Standard Terms and Conditions, 09.10.2013 40 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

existing now or later, at law, in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any event of default impairs any such right or power, nor is it a waiver of any event of default nor acquiescence in it, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as the City considers expedient. 3.5.5. City Reservation of Rights If the CPO considers it to be in the City(s best interests, the CPO may elect not to declare default or to terminate this Contract. The parties acknowledge that this provision is solely for the benefit of the City and that if the City permits Contractor to continue to provide the Services despite one or more events of default, Contractor is in no way relieved of any of its responsibilities, duties or obligations under this Contract, nor does the City waive or relinquish any of its rights. 3.5.6. Early Termination The City may terminate this Contract, in whole or in part, at any time by a notice in writing from the City to the Contractor. The effective date of termination will be the date the notice is received by the Contractor or the date stated in the notice, whichever is later. After the notice is received, the Contractor must restrict its activities, and those of its Subcontractors, to activities pursuant to direction from the City. No costs incurred after the effective date of the termination are allowed unless the termination is partial. Contractor is not entitled to any anticipated profits on services, work, or goods that have not been provided. The payment so made to the Contractor is in full settlement for all services, work or goods satisfactorily provided under this Contract. If the Contractor disputes the amount of compensation determined by the City to be due Contractor, then the Contractor must initiate dispute settlement procedures in accordance with the Disputes provision. If the City's election to terminate this Contract for default pursuant to the default provisions of the Contract is determined in a court of competent jurisdiction to have been wrongful, then in that case the termination is to be deemed to be an early termination pursuant to this Early Termination provision. 3.6. Department-specific Requirements Contractor must comply with the relevant user Department’s specific requirements in the performance of this Contract if applicable. 3.6.1. Department of Aviation Standard Requirements For purposes of this section "Airport" refers to either Midway International Airport or O’Hare International Airport, which are both owned and operated by the City of Chicago. 3.6.1.1.

Accordingly, the Contractor commits to make Good Faith Efforts to expend at least the following percentages of the total contract price (inclusive of any and all modifications and amendments), if awarded, for contract participation by MBEs and WBEs: MBE Percentage WBE Percentage 16.9% 4.5% This commitment is met by the Contractor's status as a MBE or WBE, or by a joint venture with one or more MBEs or WBEs as prime contractor (to the extent of the MBE or WBE participation in such joint venture), or by subcontracting a portion of the work to one or more MBEs or WBEs, or by the purchase of materials used in the performance of the contract from one or more MBEs or WBEs, or by the indirect participation of MBEs or WBEs in other aspects of the Contractor's business (but no dollar of such indirect MBE or WBE participation will be credited more than once against a Contractor’s MBE or WBE commitment with respect to all government Contracts of such Contractor), or by any combination of the foregoing. Note: MBE/WBE participation goals are separate and those businesses certified with the City of Chicago as both MBE and WBE may only be listed on a bidder’s compliance plan as either a MBE or a WBE, but not both to demonstrate compliance with the Contract Specific Goals. As noted above, the Contractor may meet all or part of this commitment by contracting with MBEs or WBEs for the provision of goods or services not directly related to the performance of this Contract. However, in determining the manner of MBE/WBE participation, the Contractor will first consider involvement of MBEs/WBEs as joint venture partners, subcontractors, and suppliers of goods and services directly related to the performance of this Contract. In appropriate cases, the Chief Procurement Officer will require the

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 66 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

Contractor to demonstrate the specific efforts undertaken by it to involve MBEs and WBEs directly in the performance of this Contract. The Contractor also may meet all or part of this commitment through credits received pursuant to Section 2- 92-530 of the Municipal Code of Chicago for the voluntary use of MBEs or WBEs in private sector contracts.

Pursuant to 2-92-535, the prime contractor may apply be awarded an additional 0.333 percent credit, up to a maximum of a total of 5 percent additional credit, for every 1 percent of the value of a contract self- performed by MBEs or WBEs, or combination thereof, that have entered into a mentor agreement with the contractor. This up to 5% may be applied to the Contract Specific Goals, or it may be in addition to the Contract Specific Goals.

A joint venture may consist of any combination of MBEs, WBEs, and non-certified firms as long as one member is an MBE or WBE. a. The joint venture may be eligible for credit towards the Contract Specific Goals only if: i. The MBE or WBE joint venture partner’s share in the capital contribution, control, management, risks and profits of the joint venture is equal to its ownership interest; ii. The MBE or WBE joint venture partner is responsible for a distinct, clearly defined portion of the requirements of the contract for which it is at risk;

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 68 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

iii. EachjointventurepartnerexecutesthebidtotheCity;and iv. The joint venture partners have entered into a written agreement specifying the terms and conditions of the relationship between the partners and their relationship and responsibilities to the contract, and all such terms and conditions are in accordance with the conditions set forth in Items i, ii, and iii above in this Paragraph a. b. The Chief Procurement Officer shall evaluate the proposed joint venture agreement, the Schedule B submitted on behalf of the proposed joint venture, and all related documents to determine whether these requirements have been satisfied. The Chief Procurement Officer shall also consider the record of the joint venture partners on other City of Chicago contracts. The decision of the Chief Procurement Officer regarding the eligibility of the joint venture for credit towards meeting the Contract Specific Goals, and the portion of those goals met by the joint venture, shall be final. The joint venture may receive MBE or WBE credit for work performed by the MBE or WBE joint venture partner(s) equal to the value of work performed by the MBE or WBE with its own forces for a distinct, clearly defined portion of the work. Additionally, if employees of the joint venture entity itself (as opposed to employees of the MBE or WBE partner) perform the work, then the value of the work may be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals at a rate equal to the MBE or WBE firm’s percentage of participation in the joint venture as described in Schedule B. The Chief Procurement Officer may also count the dollar value of work subcontracted to other MBEs and WBEs. Work performed by the forces of a non-certified joint venture partner shall not be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. c. Schedule B: MBE/WBE Affidavit of Joint Venture Where the bidder’s Compliance Plan includes the participation of any MBE or WBE as a joint venture partner, the bidder must submit with its bid a Schedule B and the proposed joint venture agreement. These documents must both clearly evidence that the MBE or WBE joint venture partner(s) will be responsible for a clearly defined portion of the work to be performed, and that the MBE’s or WBE’s responsibilities and risks are proportionate to its ownership percentage. The proposed joint venture agreement must include specific details related to: i. Theparties’ contributionsofcapital, personnel, and equipment and shareofthecostsof insurance and bonding; ii. Work items to be performed by the MBE’s or WBE’s own forces and/or work to be performed by employees of the newly formed joint venture entity; iii. Workitemstobeperformed underthesupervisionoftheMBEorWBEjointventure partner; and iv. The MBE’s or WBE’s commitment of management, supervisory, and operative personnel to the performance of the contract. NOTE: Vague, general descriptions of the responsibilities of the MBE or WBE joint venture partner do not provide any basis for awarding credit. For example, descriptions such as "participate in the budgeting process," "assist with hiring," or "work with managers to improve customer service" do not identify distinct, clearly defined portions of the work. Roles assigned should require activities that are performed on a regular, recurring basis rather than as needed. The roles must also be pertinent to the nature of the business for which credit is being sought. For instance, if the scope of work required by the City entails the delivery of goods or services to various sites in the City, stating that the MBE or WBE joint venture partner will be responsible for the performance of all routine maintenance and all repairs required to the vehicles used to deliver such goods or services is pertinent to the nature of the business for which credit is being sought.

6.4. Counting MBE/WBE Participation Toward the Contract Specific Goals Refer to this section when preparing the MBE/WBE compliance plan and completing Schedule D-1 for guidance on what value of the participation by MBEs and WBEs will be counted toward the stated Contract Specific Goals. The "Percent Amount of Participation" depends on whether and with whom a MBE or WBE subcontracts out any portion of its work and other factors. Firms that are certified as both MBE and WBE may only be listed on a bidder’s compliance plan as either a MBE or a WBE to demonstrate compliance with the Contract Specific Goals. For example, a firm that is certified as both a MBE and a WBE may only be listed on the bidder’s compliance plan under one of the categories, but not both. Only Payments made to MBE and WBE firms that meet BOTH the Commercially Useful Function and Area of Specialty requirements above will be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. a. Only expenditures to firms that perform a Commercially Useful Function as defined above may count toward the Contract Specific Goals. i. The CPO will determine whether a firm is performing a commercially useful function by evaluating the amount of work subcontracted, whether the amount the firm is to be paid under the contract is commensurate with the work it is actually performing and the credit claimed for its performance of the work, industry practices, and other relevant factors. ii. A MBE or WBE does not perform a commercially useful function if its participation is only required to receive payments in order to obtain the appearance of MBE or WBE participation. The CPO may examine similar commercial transactions, particularly those in which MBEs or WBEs do not participate, to determine whether non MBE and non WBE firms perform the same function in the marketplace to make a determination. iii. Indications that a subcontractor is not performing a commercially useful function include, but are not limited to, labor shifting and equipment sharing or leasing arrangements with the prime contractor or a first tier subcontractor. b. Only the value of the dollars paid to the MBE or WBE firm for work that it performs in its Area of Specialty in which it is certified counts toward the Contract Specific Goals. c. For maintenance, installation, repairs or inspection, or professional services, if the MBE or WBE performs the work itself: 100% of the value of work actually performed by the MBE’s or WBE’s own forces shall be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals, including the cost of supplies and materials purchased or equipment leased by the MBE or WBE from third parties or second tier subcontractors in order to perform its (sub)contract with its own forces (except supplies and equipment the MBE or WBE subcontractor purchases or leases from the prime contractor or its affiliate). 0% of the value of work at the project site that a MBE or WBE subcontracts to a non- certified firm counts toward the Contract Specific Goals. d. If the MBE or WBE is a manufacturer: 100% of expenditures to a MBE or WBE manufacturer for items needed for the Contract shall be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. A manufacturer is a firm that operates or maintains a factory or establishment that produces on the premises the materials or supplies obtained by the bidder or contractor. e. If the MBE or WBE is a distributor or supplier: 60% of expenditures for materials and supplies purchased from a MBE or WBE that is certified as a regular dealer or supplier shall be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. f. If the MBE or WBE is a broker: i. Zero percent (0%) of expenditures paid to brokers will be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. ii. As defined above, Brokers provide no commercially useful function.

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 70 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

Ifemployeesofthisdistinctjointventureentity performthe workthen thevalueofthe work may be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals at a rate equal to the MBE or WBE firm’s percentage of participation in the joint venture as described in the Schedule B. iii. Ajoint venturemay also count thedollarvalueofwork subcontracted to otherMBEs and WBEs. h. If the MBE or WBE subcontracts out any of its work: i. 100%ofthevalueoftheworksubcontractedtootherMBEsorWBEsperformingwork in its Area of Specialty may be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. ii. 0%ofthevalueofworkthataMBEorWBEsubcontractstoanon-certifiedfirmcounts toward the Contract Specific Goals (except as allowed by (c) above). iii. The fees or commissions charged for providing a bona fide service, such as professional, technical, consulting or managerial services or for providing bonds or insurance and assistance in the procurement of essential personnel, facilities, equipment, materials or supplies required for performance of the Contract, provided that the fee or commission is determined by the Chief Procurement Officer to be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services. iv. Thefeeschargedfordeliveryofmaterialsandsuppliesrequiredonajobsite(butnot the cost of the materials and supplies themselves) when the hauler, trucker, or delivery service is not also the manufacturer of or a regular dealer in the materials and supplies, provided that the fee is determined by the Chief Procurement Officer to be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services. v. Thefeesorcommissions charged forprovidingany bondsorinsurance,butnotthecost of the premium itself, specifically required for the performance of the Contract, provided that the fee or commission is determined by the Chief Procurement Officer to be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services. 6.5. Regulations Governing Reductions to or Waiver of MBE/WBE Goals The following Regulations set forth the standards to be used in determining whether or not a reduction or waiver of the MBE/WBE commitment goals of a particular contract is appropriate. If a bidder determines that it is unable to meet the MBE and/or WBE Contract-Specific Goals on a City of Chicago contract, a written request for the reduction or waiver of the commitment must be included in the bid or proposal. The written request for reduction or waiver from the commitment must be in the form of a signed petition for grant of relief from the MBE/WBE percentages submitted on the bidder's letterhead, and must demonstrate that all required efforts as set forth in this document were taken to secure eligible Minority and Women Business Enterprises to meet the commitments. The Chief Procurement Officer or designee shall determine whether the request for the reduction or waiver will be granted. A bidder will be considered responsive to the terms and conditions of these Regulations if, at the time of bid, it submits a waiver request and all supporting documentation that adequately addresses the conditions for waiver of MBE/WBE goals, including proof of notification to assist agencies except:  Bidders responding to Request for Proposals (RFPs) who have been identified as a short listed candidate and/or a prospective awardee will be given a designated time allowance, but no more than

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 71 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

fourteen (14) calendar days to submit to the Department of Procurement Services complete documentation that adequately addresses the conditions for waiver described herein; and  Bidders responding to Request for Information and or Qualifications (RFI/RFQs) deemed by the Chief Procurement Officer or authorized designee to be the most responsive and responsible shall submit documentation that adequately addresses the conditions for waiver described herein during negotiations. Failure to submit documentation sufficient to support the waiver request will cause the bid/proposal to be found non-responsive by the Chief Procurement Officer, and the bid/proposal will be rejected. In such cases the remedies to be taken by the Chief Procurement Officer, in his or her discretion, may include, but are not limited to, forfeiture of bid deposit; negotiating with the next lowest bidder; or re-advertising the bid/proposal. All bidders must submit all required documents at the time of bid opening to expedite the contract award. 6.5.1. Direct / Indirect Participation Each of the following elements must be present in order to determine whether or not such a reduction or waiver is appropriate. a. The bidder has documented the unsuccessful solicitation for either subcontractors or joint venture partners of at least 50% (or at least five when there are more than eleven certified firms in the commodity area) of the appropriate certified MBE/WBE firms to perform any direct or indirect work identified or related to the advertised bid/proposal. Documentation must include but is not necessarily limited to: 1. A detailed statement of efforts to identify and select portions of work identified in the bid solicitation for subcontracting to certified MBE/WBE firms; 2. A listing of all MBE/WBE firms contacted that includes: o Name, address, telephone number and email of MBE/WBE firms solicited; o Date and time of contact; o Method of contact (written, telephone, transmittal of facsimile documents, email, etc.) 3. Copies of letters or any other evidence of mailing that substantiates outreach to MBE/WBE vendors that includes: o Project identification and location; o Classification/commodity of work items for which quotations were sought; o Date, item and location for acceptance of subcontractor bid proposals; o Detailed statement which summarizes direct negotiations with appropriate MBE/WBE firms for specific portions of the work and indicates why negotiations were unsuccessful; o Affirmation that Good Faith Efforts have been demonstrated by:  choosing subcontracting opportunities likely to achieve MBE/WBE goals;  not imposing any limiting conditions which were not mandatory for all subcontractors;

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 72 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

 providing notice of subcontracting opportunities to M/WBE firms and assist agencies at least five (5) business days in advance of the initial bid due date.

OR

b. Subcontractor participation will be deemed excessively costly when the MBE/WBE subcontractor proposal exceeds the average price quoted by more than twenty percent (20%). In order to establish that a subcontractor’s quote is excessively costly, the bidder must provide the following information: 1. A detailed statement of the work identified for MBE/WBE participation for which the bidder asserts the MBE/WBE quote(s) were excessively costly (in excess of 20% higher). o A listing of all potential subcontractors contacted for a quotation on that work item; o Prices quoted for the subcontract in question by all such potential subcontractors for that work item. 2. Other documentation which demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Chief Procurement Officer that the MBE/WBE proposals are excessively costly, even though not in excess of 20% higher than the average price quoted. This determination will be based on factors that include, but are not limited to the following: o The City's estimate for the work under a specific subcontract; o The bidder’s own estimate for the work under the subcontract; o An average of the bona fide prices quoted for the subcontract; o Demonstrated increase in other contract costs as a result of subcontracting to the M/WBE or other firm. 6.5.2. Assist Agency Participation in wavier/reduction requests Every waiver and/or reduction request must include evidence that the bidder has provided timely notice of the need for subcontractors to an appropriate association/assist agency representative of the MBE/WBE business community. This notice must be given at least five (5) business days in advance of the initial bid due date. The notice requirement of this Section will be satisfied if a bidder contacts at least one of the associations on Attachment A to these Regulations when the prime contractor seeks a waiver or reduction in the utilization goals. Attachment B to these Regulations provides the letter format that a prime contractor may use. Proof of notification prior to bid submittal (e.g. certified mail receipt or facsimile transmittal receipt) will be required to be submitted with the bid for any bid/proposal to be deemed responsive. If deemed appropriate, the Contract Compliance Officer may contact the assist agency for verification of notification. 6.5.3. Impracticability If the Chief Procurement Officer determines that a lesser MBE and/or WBE percentage standard is appropriate with respect to a particular contract subject to competitive bidding prior to the bid solicitations for such contract, bid specifications shall include a statement of such revised standard. The requirements set forth in these Regulations (this subsection 6.5 "Regulations Governing Reductions to or Waiver of MBE/WBE Goals") shall not apply where the Chief Procurement Officer determines prior to the bid solicitations that MBE/WBE subcontractor participation is impracticable.

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 73 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

This may occur whenever the Chief Procurement Officer determines that for reasons of time, need, industry practices or standards not previously known by the Chief Procurement Officer, or such other extreme circumstances as may be deemed appropriate, such a Waiver is in the best interests of the City. This determination may be made in connection with a particular contract, whether before the contract is let for bid, during the bid or award process, before or during negotiation of the contract, or during the performance of the contract. For all notifications required to be made by bidders, in situations where the Chief Procurement Officer has determined that time is of the essence, documented telephone contact may be substituted for letter contact. 6.6. Procedure to Determine Bid Compliance A bid may be rejected as non-responsive if it fails to submit one or more of the following with its bid demonstrating its Good Faith Efforts to meet the Contract Specific Goals by reaching out to MBEs and WBEs to perform work on the contract:  An MBE/WBE compliance plan demonstrating how the bidder plans to meet the Contract Specific Goals; and/or  A request for reduction or waiver of the Contract Specific Goals in accordance with Section 2-92-450 of the MCC. Only compliance plans utilizing MBE and WBE firms that meet BOTH the Commercially Useful Function and Area of Specialty requirements will be counted toward the Contract Specific Goals. The following Schedules and described documents constitute the bidder's MBE/WBE proposal, and must be submitted in accordance with the guidelines stated: (1) Schedule C-1: Letter of Intent from MBE/WBE to Perform as Subcontractor, Supplier and/or Consultant. The bidder must submit the appropriate Schedule C-1 with the bid for each MBE and WBE included on the Schedule D-1. Suppliers must submit the Schedule C-1 for Suppliers, first tier subcontractors must submit a Schedule C-1 for Subcontractors to the Prime Contractor and second or lower tier subcontractors must submit a Schedule C-1 for second tier Subcontractors. The City encourages subcontractors to utilize the electronic fillable format Schedule C-1, which is available at the Department of Procurement Services website, http://cityofchicago.org/forms. Each Schedule C-1 must be executed by each MBE and WBE and accurately detail the work to be performed by the MBE or WBE and the agreed upon rates/prices. Each Schedule C must also include a separate sheet as an attachment on which the MBE or WBE fully describes its proposed scope of work, including a description of the commercially useful function being performed by the MBE or WBE in its Area of Specialty. If a facsimile copy of the Schedule C-1 has been submitted with the bid, an executed original Schedule C-1 must be submitted by the bidder for each MBE and WBE included on the Schedule D-1 within five business days after the date of the bid opening. Failure to submit a completed Schedule C-1 in accordance with this section shall entitle the City to deem the bid/proposal non-responsive and therefore reject the bid/proposal. (2) LettersofCertification. A copy of each proposed MBE/WBE firm's current Letter of Certification from the City of Chicago or Cook County Illinois, must be submitted with the bid/proposal. All Letters of Certification issued by the City of Chicago and Cook County include a statement of the MBE/WBE firm's Area of Specialty. The MBE/WBE firm's scope of work, as detailed by their Schedule C-1, must conform to their stated Area of Specialty. (3) Schedule B: Affidavit of Joint Venture, and Joint Venture Agreements (if applicable).

The joint venture agreement must also clearly define each partner’s authority to contractually obligate the joint venture and each partner's authority to expend joint venture funds (e.g., check signing authority). (4) Schedule D-1: Required Schedules Regarding MBE/WBE Utilization Bidders must submit, together with the bid, a completed Schedule D-1 committing them to the utilization of each listed MBE/WBE firm. The City encourages bidders to utilize the electronic fillable format Schedule D-1, which is available at the Department of Procurement Services website, http://cityofchicago.org/forms. Except in cases where the bidder has submitted a request for a complete waiver of or variance from the MBE/WBE commitment in accordance with Section 6.5 "Regulations Governing Reductions to or Waiver of MBE/WBE Goals" herein, the bidder must commit to the expenditure of a specific dollar amount of participation by each MBE/WBE firm included on their Schedule D-1. The total dollar commitment to proposed MBEs must at least equal the MBE goal, and the total dollar commitment to proposed WBEs must at least equal the WBE goal. Bidders are responsible for calculating the dollar equivalent of the MBE and WBE goals as percentages of their total base bids or in the case of Term Agreements, depends upon requirements agreements and blanket agreements, as percentages of the total estimated usage. All commitments made by the bidder's Schedule D-1 must conform to those presented in the submitted Schedule C-1. If Schedule C-1 is submitted after the opening, the bidder may submit a revised Schedule D-1 (executed and notarized to conform with the Schedules C-1). Bidders shall not be permitted to add MBEs or WBEs after bid opening to meet the Contract Specific Goals, however, contractors are encouraged to add additional MBE/WBE vendors to their approved compliance plan during the performance of the contract when additional opportunities for participation are identified. Except in cases where substantial and documented justification is provided, bidders will not be allowed to reduce the dollar commitment made to any MBE or WBE in order to achieve conformity between the Schedules C- 1 and D-1. All commitments for joint venture agreements must be delineated in the Schedule B. (5) Application for Approvalof Mentor Protégé Agreement Any applications for City approval of a Mentor Protégé agreement must be included with the bid. If the application is not approved, the bidder must show that it has made good faith efforts to meet the contract specific goals. 6.7. Reporting Requirements During the Term of the Contract a.

Access to the Certification and Compliance Monitoring System (C2), which is a web based reporting system, can be found at: https://chicago.mwdbe.com e. The Chief Procurement Officer or any party designated by the Chief Procurement Officer, shall have access to the contractor's books and records, including without limitation payroll records, tax returns and records and books of account, to determine the contractor's compliance with its commitment to MBE and WBE participation and the status of any MBE or WBE performing any portion of the contract. This provision shall be in addition to, and not a substitute for, any other provision allowing inspection of the contractor's records by any officer or official of the City for any purpose. f. TheContractor shall maintain recordsofall relevant data with respect to theutilization of MBEs and WBEs, retaining these records for a period of at least five years after project closeout. Full access to these records shall be granted to City, federal or state authorities or other authorized persons. 6.8. Changes to Compliance Plan 6.8.1. Permissible Basis for Change Required No changes to the Compliance Plan or contractual MBE and WBE commitments or substitution of MBE or WBE subcontractors may be made without the prior written approval of the Contract Compliance Officer. Unauthorized changes or substitutions, including performing the work designated for a subcontractor with the contractor’s own forces, shall be a violation of these Special Conditions and a breach of the contract with the City, and may cause termination of the executed Contract for breach, and/or subject the bidder or contractor to contract remedies or other sanctions. The facts supporting the request for changes must not have been known nor reasonably could have been known by the parties prior to entering into the subcontract. Bid shopping is prohibited. The bidder or contractor must negotiate with the subcontractor to resolve the problem. If requested by either party, the Department of Procurement Services shall facilitate such a meeting. Where there has been a mistake or disagreement about the scope of work, the MBE or WBE can be substituted only where an agreement cannot be reached for a reasonable price for the correct scope of work. Substitutions of a MBE or WBE subcontractor shall be permitted only on the following basis: a) Unavailability after receipt of reasonable notice to proceed; b) Failure of performance; c) Financial incapacity; d) Refusal by the subcontractor to honor the bid or proposal price or scope; e) Mistake of fact or law about the elements of the scope of work of a solicitation where a reasonable price cannot be agreed;

f) Failure of the subcontractor to meet insurance, licensing or bonding requirements; g) The subcontractor's withdrawal of its bid or proposal; or h) De-certification of the subcontractor as a MBE or WBE (graduation from the MBE/WBE program does not constitute de-certification). i) Termination of a Mentor Protégé Agreement.

6.8.2. Procedure for Requesting Approval If it becomes necessary to substitute a MBE or WBE or otherwise change the Compliance Plan, the procedure will be as follows: a) The bidder or contractor must notify the Contract Compliance Officer and Chief Procurement Officer in writing of the request to substitute a MBE or WBE or otherwise change the Compliance Plan. The request must state specific reasons for the substitution or change. A letter from the MBE or WBE to be substituted or affected by the change stating that it cannot perform on the contract or that it agrees with the change in its cope of work must be submitted with the request. b) The City will approve or deny a request for substitution or other change within 15 business days of receipt of the written request. c) Where the bidder or contractor has established the basis for the substitution to the satisfaction of the Chief Procurement Officer, it must make Good Faith Efforts to meet the Contract Specific Goal by substituting a MBE or WBE subcontractor. Documentation of a replacement MBE or WBE, or of Good Faith Efforts, must meet the requirements in section 5. If the MBE or WBE Contract Specific Goal cannot be reached and Good Faith Efforts have been made, as determined by the Chief Procurement Officer, the bidder or contractor may substitute with a non-MBE or non-WBE. d) If a bidder or contractor plans to hire a subcontractor for any scope of work that was not previously disclosed in the Compliance Plan, the bidder or contractor must obtain the approval of the Chief Procurement Officer to modify the Compliance Plan and must make Good Faith Efforts to ensure that MBEs or WBEs have a fair opportunity to bid on the new scope of work. e) A new subcontract must be executed and submitted to the Contract Compliance Officer within five business days of the bidder’s or contractor’s receipt of City approval for the substitution or other change. The City shall not be required to approve extra payment for escalated costs incurred by the contractor when a substitution of subcontractors becomes necessary to comply with MBE/WBE contract requirements. 6.9. Non-Compliance and Damages Without limitation, the following shall constitute a material breach of this contract and entitle the City to declare a default, terminate the contract, and exercise those remedies provided for in the contract, at law or in equity: (1) failure to demonstrate Good Faith Efforts; and (2) disqualification as a MBE or WBE of the contractor or any joint venture partner, subcontractor or supplier if its status as an MBE or WBE was a factor in the award of the contract and such status was misrepresented by the contractor. Payments due to the contractor may be withheld until corrective action is taken. Pursuant to MCC 2-92-445 or 2-92-740, as applicable, remedies or sanctions may include a penalty in the amount of the discrepancy between the amount of the commitment in the Compliance Plan, as such amount may be amended through change orders or otherwise over the term of the contract, and the amount paid to MBEs or WBEs, and disqualification from contracting or subcontracting on additional City contracts for up to three years. The consequences provided herein shall be in addition to any other criminal or civil liability to which such entities may be subject.

M/WBE Special Conditions for Commodities & Work Services 9.25.2013 77 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

The contractor shall have the right to protest the final determination of non-compliance and the imposition of any penalty by the Chief Procurement Officer pursuant to MCC 2-92-445 or 2-92-740, within 15 business days of the final determination. 6.10. Arbitration a) In the event a contractor has not complied with the contractual MBE/WBE percentages in its Schedule D, underutilization of MBEs/WBEs shall entitle the affected MBE/WBE to recover from the contractor damages suffered by such entity as a result of being underutilized; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply to the extent such underutilization occurs pursuant to a waiver or substitution approved by the City. The Ordinance and contracts subject thereto provide that any disputes between the contractor and such affected MBEs/WBEs regarding damages shall be resolved by binding arbitration before an independent arbitrator other than the City, with reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, being recoverable by a prevailing MBE/WBE in accordance with these regulations. This provision is intended for the benefit of any MBE/WBE affected by underutilization and grants such entity specific third party beneficiary rights. Any rights conferred by this regulation are non-waivable and take precedence over any agreement to the contrary, including but not limited to those contained in a subcontract, suborder, or communicated orally between a contractor and a MBE/WBE. b) An MBE/WBE desiring to arbitrate shall contact the contractor in writing to initiate the arbitrative process. Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the affected parties subject to the limitation contained in the last sentence of the previous paragraph, within ten (10) calendar days of the contractor receiving notification of the intent to arbitrate from the MBE/WBE the above-described disputes shall be arbitrated in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), a not-for-profit agency, with an office at 225 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 2527, Chicago, Illinois 60601-7601 [Phone: (312) 616-6560; Fax: (312) 819-0404]. All such arbitrations shall be initiated by the MBE/WBE filing a demand for arbitration with the AAA; shall be conducted by the AAA; and held in Chicago, Illinois. c) All arbitration fees are to be paid pro rata by the parties, however, that the arbitrator is authorized to award reasonable expenses, including attorney and arbitrator fees, as damages to a prevailing MBE/WBE. d) The MBE/WBE must send the City a copy of the Demand for Arbitration within ten (10) calendar days after it is filed with the AAA. The MBE/WBE also must send the City a copy of the decision of the arbitrator within ten (10) calendar days of receiving such decision. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. 6.11. Equal Employment Opportunity Compliance with MBE and WBE requirements will not diminish or supplant equal employment opportunity and civil rights provisions as required by law.

ARTICLE 7. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS The Contractor must provide and maintain for the life of this Contract and at Contractor's own expense, until Contract completion and during the time period following final completion if Contractor is required to return and perform any additional work, the insurance coverage and requirements specified below, insuring all operations related to the Contract. 7.1. Insurance to be Provided 7.1.1. Workers Compensation and Employers Liability Workers Compensation Insurance, as prescribed by applicable law covering all employees who are to provide a service under this Contract and Employers Liability coverage with limits of not less than $100,000 each accident, illness or disease. 7.1.2. Commercial General Liability (Primary and Umbrella) Commercial General Liability Insurance or equivalent with limits of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage liability. Coverages must include the following: All premises and operations, products/completed operations, explosion, collapse, underground, separation of insureds, defense, and contractual liability (with no limitation endorsement). The City of Chicago is to be named as an additional insured on a primary, non- contributory basis for any liability arising directly or indirectly from the work. Subcontractors performing work for the Contractor must maintain limits of not less than $1,000,000 with the same terms herein. 7.1.3. Automobile Liability (Primary and Umbrella) When any motor vehicles (owned, non-owned and hired) are used in connection with work to be performed, the Contractor must provide Automobile Liability Insurance with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage. The City of Chicago is to be named as an additional insured on a primary, non-contributory basis. Subcontractors performing work for the Contractor must maintain limits of not less than $1,000,000 with the same terms herein. 7.1.4.

The Contractor must submit evidence of insurance on the City of Chicago Insurance Certificate Form (copy attached as an exhibit) or equivalent prior to Contract award. The receipt of any certificate does not constitute agreement by the City that the insurance requirements in the Contract have been fully met or that the insurance policies indicated on the certificate are in compliance with all Contract requirements. The failure of the City to obtain certificates or other insurance evidence from Contractor is not a waiver by the City of any requirements for the Contractor to obtain and maintain the specified coverages. The Contractor must advise all insurers of the Contract provisions regarding insurance. Non-conforming insurance does not relieve Contractor of the obligation to provide insurance as specified herein. No fulfillment of the insurance conditions may constitute a violation of the Contract, and the City retains the right to stop work until proper evidence of insurance is provided, or the Contract may be terminated. Contractor must furnish Certificates Insurance of Coverage of any or all insurance policies listing the City as an additional insured upon request by the Chief Procurement Officer. All Certificates Insurance of Coverage must be signed, dated and reference the City contract number. The insurance must provide for sixty (60) days prior written notice to be given to the City in the event coverage is substantially changed, canceled, or non-renewed. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions on referenced insurance coverages must be borne by Contractor. The Contractor agrees that insurers waive their rights of subrogation against the City of Chicago, its employees, elected officials, agents, or representatives.

Insurance Requirements 97 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

The coverages and limits furnished by Contractor in no way limit the Contractor's liabilities and responsibilities specified within the Contract or by law. Any insurance or self-insurance programs maintained by the City of Chicago do not contribute with insurance provided by the Contractor under the Contract. The required insurance to be carried is not limited by any limitations expressed in the indemnification language in this Contract or any limitation placed on the indemnity in this Contract given as a matter of law. If Contractor is a joint venture or limited liability company, the insurance policies must name the joint venture or limited liability company and each of its separate constituent entities as named insureds. The Contractor must require all subcontractors to provide the insurance required herein, or Contractor may provide the coverages for subcontractors. All subcontractors are subject to the same insurance requirements of Contractor unless otherwise specified in this Contract. If Contractor or subcontractor desire additional coverages, the party desiring the additional coverages is responsible for the acquisition and cost. Notwithstanding any provision in the Contract to the contrary, the City of Chicago Risk Management Department maintains the right to modify, delete, alter or change these requirements.

Q: Where do I file? A: The web link for the Online EDS is https://webapps.cityofchicago.org/EDSWeb

Q: HowdoIgethelp? A: If there is a question mark on a page or next to a field, click on the question mark for help filling out the page or field. You may also consult the User Manual and the Training Videos available on the left menu.

Q: WhydoIhavetosubmitanEDS? A: The Economic Disclosure Statement (EDS) is required of applicants making an application to the City for action requiring City Council, City department or other City agency approval. For example, all bidders seeking a City contract are required to submit an EDS. Through the EDS, applicants make disclosures required by State law and City ordinances and certify compliance with various laws and ordinances. An EDS is also required of certain parties related to the applicant, such as owners and controlling parties.

Q: Who is the Applicant? A: “Applicant” means any entity or person making an application to the City for action requiring City Council or other City agency approval. The applicant does not include owners and parent companies.

Q: Who is the Disclosing Party? A: “Disclosing Party” means any entity or person submitting an EDS. This includes owners and parent companies.

Q: What is an entity or legal entity? A: “Entity’ or ‘Legal Entity” means a legal entity (for example, a corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company or trust).

Q: What is a person for purposes of the EDS? A: “Person” means a human being.

Q: WhomustsubmitanEDS? A. An EDS must be submitted in any of the following three circumstances: Applicants: An Applicant must always file this EDS. If the Applicant is a legal entity, state the full name of that legal entity. If the Applicant is a person acting on his/her own behalf, state his/her name. Entities holding an interest: Whenever a legal entity has a beneficial interest (E. G. direct or indirect ownership) of more than 7.5% in the Applicant, each such legal entity must file an EDS on its own behalf. Controlling entities: Whenever a Disclosing Party is a general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, limited liability partnership or joint venture that has a general partner, managing member, manager or other

Economic Disclosure Statement and Affidavit (EDS) 101 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

entity that can control the day-to-day management of the Disclosing Party, that entity must also file an EDS on its own behalf. Each entity with a beneficial interest of more than 7.5% in the controlling entity must also file an EDS on its own behalf.

Q: What information is needed to submit an EDS? A: The information contained in the Preparation Checklist for EDS submission.

Q: I don’t have a user ID & password. Can I still submit an Online EDS? A: No. You must register and create a user ID and password before submitting an Online EDS.

Q: What information is needed to request a user ID & password for Online EDS? A: The information contained in the Preparation Checklist for Registration is needed to request a login for the Online EDS.

Q: I already have a username and password from another City web site (City Web Portal, Department of Construction and Permits, Department of Consumer Services, etc.). Can I log-in the Online EDS with that account? A: Usually not. The Online EDS uses a user ID and password system that is shared by the Public Vehicle Advertising and Water Payment web sites. You may use a username and password from those sites by answering “Yes” to “Is this an existing City of Chicago user ID?” when registering. Other usernames and passwords will not be automatically recognized. However, you may choose to create an identical username for the Online EDS if it is not already taken.

Q: I don’t have an email address. How do I submit an Online EDS? A: You cannot get an account to submit an online EDS without an email address. If you need an e-mail address, we suggest that you use a free internet email provider such as www.hotmail.com, www.yahoo.com or rnail.google.com to open an account. The City does not endorse any particular free internet email provider. Public computers are available at all Chicago Public Library branches.

Q: I forgot my user ID. Can I register again? A: No. If you are the EDS Captain of your organization, please contact the Department of Procurement Services at 312-744- 4900. If you are an EDS team member, contact your EDS Captain, who can look up your user ID.

Q: WhoistheEDSCaptain? A: The EDS Captain is a person who performs certain administrative functions for an organization which files an EDS. Each organization registered with the Online EDS has at least one EDS Captain. There may be co-captains, who are all equal. EDS Captains approve new users, change contact information for an organization and de-active accounts of employees who have left the organization. Please see the User Manual for more information.

Q: Why do weneed EDSCaptains? A: The Online EDS is designed to be a self-service web application which allows those doing or seeking to do business with the City to perform as many routine functions as possible without City intervention. Because many organizations have multiple staff filing an EDS, the EDS Captain role allows those organizations to self-manage the contact information and users.

Economic Disclosure Statement and Affidavit (EDS) 102 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

Q: Who is the EDS team? A: The EDS team for an organization is everyone who is registered to file an EDS on behalf of the organization.

Q: I forgot my password. What should I do? A: To retrieve a temporary password, click the “Forgot your password?” link on the login page. Enter your user ID that you provided when you registered your account. The system will automatically generate a temporary password and send it to you. When you log-in with your temporary password, you will be asked to create a new password.

Q: How do I complete an Online EDS? A: Click on “Create New” after logging in. The Online EDS system will walk you through the EDS questions. Please see the User Manual for details.

Q: How do I fill out a Disclosure of Retained Parties? A: There is no longer a separate Disclosure of Retained Parties filing. After logging in, click on “Create New”. Answer (click) “Contract” to “Is this EDS for a contract or an EDS information update?” Click “Fill out EDS” and click on the “Retained Parties” tab. When finished, click on “Ready to Submit”.

Q: How do I attach documents? A: Attachments are discouraged. If at all possible, please provide a concise explanation in the space provided in the online form. Attachments with pages of officers are not acceptable. Names of officers must be typed into the system. If you must provide an attachment for another reason, please send it to your City of Chicago contact (contract administrator or negotiator for procurements) and they will attach it for you. Documents can be sent in PDF (preferred), Word or paper format.

Q: Who can complete an Economic Disclosure Statement online? A: Any authorized representative of your business with a user ID and password can complete your EDS online. One person, such as an assistant, can fill in the information and save it and another person can review and electronically sign the Online EDS.

Q: What are the benefits of filing my Economic Disclosure statement electronically? A: Filing electronically reduces the chance of filing an incomplete EDS and speeds up the processing of contract awards. A certificate of filing can be printed at the completion of the process and inserted into your bid package. The biggest benefit for those who frequently do business with the City is that after the first EDS, each EDS is much easier to fill out because non- contract specific information is pre-filled from the last submitted EDS.

Q: Will my information be secure? A: Yes. When making your internet connection to our Web Server, you will connect through a Secure Socket Layer (SSL for short) to the “Online EDS” login page. All information you type will be protected using strong encryption. Within the login page, you will provide us with a user ID, password and secret question for user authentication, only you will have knowledge of this unique identification information.

Q: I am filing electronically. How do I sign my EDS?

Economic Disclosure Statement and Affidavit (EDS) 103 Uniforms and Commissary Related Services, Chicago Fire Department, Specification Number 118327 Commodities Form Contract 09.26.2013

A: Once you have completed the EDS, you will be prompted to enter your password and answer to your secret question. Together, these will serve as your electronic signature. Although you will also print and physically sign an EDS certification of filing as a notice that your EDS was filed, your EDS is complete as a legal document with only the electronic filing.

Q: My address has changed. How can I update my information? A: You must be an EDS Captain for your organization to update this. Log-in and click on “Vendor Admin, Site Administration”. Select the appropriate site and click edit.

Q: I have more questions. How can I contact the Department of Procurement Services? A: Please contact the contract administrator or negotiator assigned to your solicitation or contract. You may call DPS at 312- 744-4900 between 8:30 AM and 5:00 PM Central Time.

Q: Can I save a partially complete EDS? A: Yes. Click “Save”. To avoid data loss, we recommend you save your work periodically while filling out your EDS.

Q: Do I have to re-type my information each time I submit an EDS? A: No. The system will remember non-contract specific information from your last submitted EDS for one year. This information will be filled-in for you in your new EDS. You will have an opportunity to correct it if it has changed since your last filing. When you submit your new EDS, the information is saved and the one-year clock begins running anew.

Q: What are the system requirements to use the Online EDS? A: The following are minimum requirements to use the Online EDS: • A PDF viewer such as Adobe Reader is installed and your web browser is configured to display PDFs automatically. You may download and install Adobe Reader free at www.adobe.comlproducts/reader/ • Your web browser is set to permit running of JavaScript. • Yourweb browserallowscookiestobesetforthis site.Pleasenotethatwhile weusecookiesin theOnlineEDS, we do not use them to track personally identifiable information, so your privacy is maintained. • Your monitor resolution is set to a minimum of 1024 x 768. • While not required to submit an EDS, if you wish to view the training videos, you must have Adobe Flash Plugin version 9 or higher, speakers and sound.

TROUSERS, WORK, NFPA COMPLIANT UNISEX NAVY BLUE Fly Construction: The right inside fly is reinforced with internal construction fabric and 1/8" gauge topstitched along the entire exposed edge to ensure shape retention for extended wear life.

The third is set at a 45 degree angle in line with the first bar tack. The right inside fly is a true French Fly with secondary button closure for additional reinforcement and smooth appearance.

Crotch and Seat Assembly Method: The crotch is formed below the fly at the intersection of the four foundation panels of the trouser: Left front, right front, left rear and right rear. Two triangular pieces (crotch lining) are sewn into the two front panels of the trousers to help absorb perspiration and increase strength of crotch seam. The trouser is assembled to form this crotch by first sewing the left front to the left rear thus making the left side of the trouser; and the right front to the right rear to form the right side. The left side of the trouser is then joined together to the right side by means of the seat seam. The trouser is not assembled by the alternate whole front to whole back method due to the unreliability of that method during extended wear life.

Seat Construction: Extra fabric is allowed such that seat girth and waistband diameter may be expanded or decreased by the wearer during the trousers’ extended wear life.
