FIRM QUOTED PRICE POLICY

ATTENTION – COMMERCIAL CARRIERS

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has instituted a firm quoted price policy on moves of employees’ household goods and Commonwealth property. Firm quoted price is defined as the maximum amount that a carrier will be permitted to invoice the Commonwealth upon completion of a contracted move. The firm quoted price will be the result of multiplying the estimated weight of items to be moved by a stated rate per hundredweight or, if applicable, the estimated hours required to complete the move multiplied by stated hourly rates for vehicles, drivers, helpers, and supervisors, and adding any other specified charges, such as for insurance, packing, cartons, etc.

Under this policy, bidders on Commonwealth moves will be required to submit a Firm Quoted Price Agreement in addition to their detailed estimate. The agreement shall stipulate:

The estimated weight of items to be moved (or hours required to complete the move).

The rate per hundredweight (or hourly rates for equipment and personnel).

Total other charges.

The firm quoted price for completion of the move.

The Firm Quoted Price Agreement requires the signatures of an authorized official of the carrier and will be a part of any resulting contract.

Upon completion of a contracted move, the carrier shall invoice, and the Commonwealth shall pay, only the lesser of:

the amount arrived at by multiplying the actual weight of items moved, or hours required to complete the move, by the specified rates plus other charges; or

the firm quoted price.
