Solicitation No. 23-04
6/23/2023
RE: Solicitation No. 23-04—Region 4 Education Service Center for Roofing Products, Services, and JOC Services
Weatherproofing Technologies Inc. (“WTI”) and its affiliate Tremco CPG, Inc. (Tremco) are pleased to present our Region
4 ESC RFP Response. Our comprehensive response represents our approach and demonstrated success in providing the
types of services requested in the RFP. We believe as evidenced from our many years of working under Region 4 ESC, OMNIA
Partners contacts it is very clear we can provide the services and products required by OMNIA members. Managing facilities
can be complex. Procuring comprehensive and cost effective solutions shouldn’t be. Identifying the problem and defining the
technical solution only solves part of the problem. OMNIA members want and need to procure high-quality, cost-effective, and
comprehensive building envelope solutions without sacrificing transparency, which WTI can provide under the contract.
WTI brings 62 years of experience in delivering superior solutions to both basic and complicated exterior building, roofing,
fall protection, parking garage, waterproofing, indoor air quality, HVAC restoration, paving, and flooring projects. While our
affiliate company, Tremco, has been providing roofing and building envelope materials and services for more than 95 years.
Coupled with an extensive Tremco CPG portfolio, WTI and Tremco is the industry leader in providing roofing and building
enclosure solutions. The Tremco portfolio includes Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance, WTI, Tremco Commercial
Sealants & Waterproofing, Dryvit Systems (insulated exterior finish system), Nudura (insulated concrete wall system), Prebuck
LLC, (pre-engineered wall system), and Willseal (durable expansion joint systems). In tandem with WTI’s full-service design
build GC capabilities, these manufacturing resources, along with WTI Pure Air (HVAC analysis and restoration, disinfecting
and sanitizing services), CanAm (building envelope sealing) and sister company, Stonhard (sustainable and high performance
flooring) give OMNIA members a unique, single point of contact for all their building envelope, flooring and paving needs. In
addition, WTI’s National Cooperative Contractor Network provides OMNIA members with another way to compliantly procure
solutions through a network of highly qualified, local, best-in-class pre-qualified contractors.
WTI, Tremco and our In-Network Contractors have provided cost-effective solutions to increase performance while
reducing costs for numerous public agencies, many of which are OMNIA members, across North America, both large
and small. This has resulted in many long term partnerships. This continues to be our goal and has been demonstrated
through our long history with successfully performing on Region 4 ESC contracts since 2004.
In an effort to continue to provide the best value to OMNIA’s membership, we have increased our material only discount,
lowered our RS Means coefficient, and added additional value add line items to further enhance contract usability by
OMNIA members nationwide. As part of our bid submission, we have provided bid bonds for the State of Texas and the State
of Michigan in hard copy. The State of Texas bond is per the RFP requirements. The State of Michigan bond is provided to meet
Michigan’s bidding requirements.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments. Thank you for consideration of our proposal submission.
Sincerely,
Craig A. Nelson

Special Offers/Promotions. In addition to decreasing prices for the balance of the Contract term due to a change in market
conditions, Contractor may conduct sales promotions involving price reductions for a specified lesser period. Contractor may
offer Participating Agencies competitive pricing which is lower than the not-to-exceed price set forth herein at any time during
the Contract term and such lower pricing shall not be applied as a global price reduction under the Contract.
WTI will offer special offers/promotions if available.
Not to Exceed Pricing. Region 4 ESC requests pricing be submitted as not to exceed pricing. Unlike
fixed pricing, the Contractor can adjust submitted pricing lower if needed but, cannot exceed original
pricing submitted. Contractor must allow for lower pricing to be available for similar product and service
purchases. Cost plus pricing as a primary pricing structure is not acceptable.
WTI confirms that our pricing is submitted as not to exceed pricing. The pricing submitted is the guaranteed maximum
pricing. Given the many variances and unique conditions presented on each project, WTI is committed to offering and
providing the best value at the best site-specific pricing based on any economic benefits obtainable per each site-specific
project. Based on this, pricing may be lower than submitted under this contract.
Federal Funding Pricing. Due to products and services potentially being used in response to an emergency or disaster recovery
situation in which federal funding may used, provide alternative pricing that does not include cost plus a percentage of cost or
pricing based on time and materials; if time and materials is necessary, a ceiling price that the contract exceeds at its own risk
will be needed. Products and services provided in a situation where an agency is eligible for federal funding, Offeror is subject
to and must comply with all federal requirements applicable to the funding including, but not limited to the FEMA Special
Conditions section located in the Federal Funds Certifications Exhibit.
WTI has extensive experience performing on federally funded projects while complying with federal requirements, including
FEMA Special Conditions. Our proposed pricing does not include cost plus, a percentage of cost, or pricing based on time and
materials for federally funded projects. All pricing is based on the pricing submitted under this contract as well as RS Means

spectrum of economic opportunity, which will yield
both an increasingly diverse bench of highly trained
new workers and a wider array of thriving minority and
women-owned business enterprises to help lead climate-
critical work.”
Launched in August of 2020, Our Rising Stars Program
aims to cultivate a strong, well-rounded workforce in
the construction industry through supporting youth in
vocational programs, as well as minority- and women-
owned businesses. Our programs offer hands-on
education with subject matter experts to develop diverse
skillsets, increase access to resources, and ultimately
drive success for those emerging in the industry.
The Rising Stars Program empowers the next generation
of underrepresented youth to find opportunities for
sustainable careers in the construction industry. Our
program has now expanded to New York and New Jersey,
with near future locations in North Carolina, Connecticut,
and Nevada.

I. Describe how supplier differentiates itself from its competitors.
Managing facilities can be complex. Procuring comprehensive, cost effective solutions shouldn’t be. Identifying the
problem and defining the technical solution only solves part of the problem. Members want and need to procure cost
effective, comprehensive building envelope solutions without sacrificing quality, performance, or transparency. With
decades of experience, WTI understands the unique procurement challenges of public entities charged with meeting not
only budget and quality goals, but also state-specific transparency requirements. That’s why we offer OMNIA members
our comprehensive roofing and building envelope solutions offering. The Tremco Construction Products Group companies
together form the industry’s only provider of comprehensive systems and services for all six sides of the building enclosure.
WTI’s whole building approach through the Power of One can provide weatherproofing peace of mind delivered under one
warranty. With proven roofing and building envelope capabilities across the country, WTI is uniquely qualified to meet the
needs of public market facility managers and business managers charged with improving both building performance and
return-on-investment. Among our differentiators are the following.
WTI and Tremco have a history of performance with Region 4 ESC. We have to date been awarded
ten Region 4 ESC contracts. As a result, we offer Region 4 ESC and OMNIA members refined roofing
project policies and procedures along with the ability to simultaneously deliver multiple projects. Our
1 established relationships with Region 4 ESC and participating OMNIA members are evident in a track
record of more than $500 million in products and services to date. The selection of WTI for the Roofing
Products, Services and Job-Order-Contracting Services contract will eliminate a learning curve and
continue to expand existing relationships with participating Public Agencies.
2
WTI offers exceptional technical expertise, with a track record of over $2 billion of roofing, building
envelope, weatherization and rooftop safety system installations for public customers.
3
WTI provides turnkey solutions, from world-class roofing and building envelope diagnostics through
comprehensive roof management programs from a single source.
4 All facets of discovery, programming, design, construction and commissioning.
5 Proven and experienced contractors and subcontractors.
6 Guaranteed maximum pricing to eliminate surprises.
7 Performance-based quality construction services.

simultaneously. More than 50 construction managers supervise technical staff, along with program
managers who ensure contract compliance, consistency, on-time delivery and outstanding customer
service. Together, WTI’s management team oversees diagnostics, maintenance, repairs, construction,
leak response and our OLI® (on-line information system) data department.
WTI offers Region 4 ESC and OMNIA Partners and its members world-class experience. We are currently
implementing large roof asset management programs throughout the US, Canada, Europe and Asia, with
9 more than 2-billion square feet (SF) of roofing managed with our OLI® system software. Additionally,
more than 800-million SF of roofing falls under the protection of our Tremco ManagedAssets™ (TMA)
program, which includes maintenance during the roofs’ annual or bi-annual inspections.
WTI’s three-level service offering allows OMNIA members the opportunity to select the level of service
that best meets their needs while capitalizing on the preferential pricing of a nationwide contract.
10 Whether selecting our flagship, turn-key general contracting solution, or our National Cooperative
Contractor Network for direct access to qualifying local contractors, or purchasing materials only,
participating agencies receive superior products and service.
WTI has extensive experience managing regional and national roofing and building envelope contracts
within the public sector. We have completed or are currently performing on many JOC type contracts.
11
Further, WTI has proven experience simultaneously managing multiple contracts with multiple
subcontractors. Our experience with JOC type contracts and roofing projects is directly transferable to
OMNIA members in the form of established policies and procedures based upon our past relationship
with OMNIA Partners and its members as well as other cooperative contracts we have.
12 WTI has a $200 million aggregate bonding capacity.
13
WTI and Tremco both hold a UL ISO 9001:2015 certification demonstrating the implementation of
Quality Management Systems.
WTI offers one of the most comprehensive warranty packages in the roofing industry. We offer
14
many types of warranties that fit the needs of any project. We also offer long-term warranties on
roof restoration projects. Each of our warranties covers installation, details, flashing, materials,
workmanship, inspection and preventative maintenance is also an available option.
WTI works collaboratively with contractors to ensure the installation meets expectations for quality,
15 safety and efficiency while utilizing best-in-class contractors who have the ability and financial stability
to deliver exceptional projects. WTI offers extensive training courses to its certified contractors.

Safety is job one with WTI and Tremco. Every one of our roofing and building-envelope projects, no
19
matter how large or how small, begins with a thorough understanding of potential job-site hazards,
safe work procedures, product characteristics, equipment operation, conditions and specific customer
requirements. These are submitted to the owner through a WTI site-specific Safety Plan.
WTI and Tremco utilize the Arizona State University Performance Based Studies Research Group
for the independent data collection on its products, services, representatives and our customers’
overall service experience. Survey results from the past six years, representing 80.5-million SF of
roofing products and services, show an overall customer satisfaction of 9.1 out of 10. Additionally,
20
our customers awarded a 9.5 out of 10 in satisfaction of their Tremco representative and 9.3 out of
10 in satisfaction of the roofing system. WTI and Tremco are proud of these results and use them
to understand what we are doing right, so we can continue to deliver on our strengths. We also use
our customer satisfaction results to highlight opportunities to drive continuous improvement in
our products, systems delivery and service quality. We aim to maintain our high level of customer
satisfaction and loyalty, as the primary focus of every project.

support of our public market strategy. Depending upon individual cooperative needs, we can incorporate other services
to best meet participating agency needs. WTI has an established framework and a nationwide presence, so we can easily
adapt to individual cooperative and member requirements.
Upon award of a cooperative contract, we implement our proven marketing approach which includes educating our
in-house staff on the contract and rolling out our services through co-branded marketing efforts to cooperative

Members. As discussed in our marketing rollout plan, this typically includes a combination of press releases, social
media announcements, direct/email mailings, advertisements, participation in trade shows, social media, and website
interactions. Beyond marketing, we also mobilize our existing construction-management personnel to make certain we
have the availability to respond to cooperative projects. As a result of our nationwide presence, we draw from a large pool of
resources to staff cooperative projects depending on location throughout the US.
Our success with cooperative purchasing programs is demonstrated by consecutive contract awards by many cooperatives.
These renewals prove our ability to meet agency expectations as well as speak to the effectiveness of our organization to
market and perform critical services. OMNIA members can also see evidence of our cooperative successes in our customer
satisfaction metrics, where customers awarded us a 9.1 out of 10 overall satisfaction rating and 97% of respondent
customers said they would purchase our roofing systems again. To see this in greater detail use the “Tremco Quality
Control Customer Satisfaction Program” hyperlink button on the first links page at the beginning of this proposal.
J. State the Amount of Supplier’s Public Agency Sales for the Previous Fiscal Year. Provide a List of Supplier’s
Top Ten Public Agency Customers, the Total Purchases for Each for the Previous Fiscal Year Along with a
Key Contact for Each.
WTI and Tremco’s Public Agency Sales in FY2022 were approximately $388 million for both cooperative and traditional
sales. WTI has taken an exception to providing the list of top ten public agency customers as this information is considered
privileged and we do not have permission from our customers to divulge it.
K. Describe Supplier’s Information Systems Capabilities and Limitations Regarding Order Management
Through Receipt of Payment, Including Description of Multiple Platforms That May be Used for Any of
These Functions.
WTI will make progress payments to subcontractors based upon applications for payment submitted by the subcontractor.
Subcontractors are required to submit monthly requisitions for payment for work completed during the preceding month
unless the billing requirements of the participating agency contract documents specify otherwise, and those requirements will
supersede these provisions. WTI will issue progress payments on properly submitted requisitions relating to work performed
in accordance with the contract documents on a net-30 basis from receipt unless different terms are expressly provided in the
contract documents. The amount of each progress payment to the subcontractor will be equal to the following:
• The percentage of completion for the work of the subcontractor on a monthly basis and in accordance with the contract
• Plus, the amount allowed for materials (if any)
• Less the aggregate of previous payments to the subcontractor, and less ten percent (10%) or specified retainage
Retainage will be held until the DO has received a final inspection and has been accepted by the participating agency. WTI
will not be required to pay subcontractors more than received for our work.
Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of the contract sum, will be made to subcontractors when the
work has been completed to the satisfaction of WTI, Region 4 ESC, OMNIA Partners, Public Agencies and the DO is fully

performed (including proper delivery of waivers of lien and other documentation required by the contract documents). A
final certificate for payment will be issued by a participating Public Agency for the work and WTI will receive final payment
from the participating Public Agency.
L. Provide the Contract Sales (as Defined in Section 10 of the OMNIA Partners, Public Sector Administration
Agreement) that Supplier Will Guarantee Each Year Under the Master Agreement for the Initial Three Years
of the Master Agreement (“Guaranteed Contract Sales”).
YEAR ONE* YEAR TWO* YEAR THREE*
$ 38,000,000 $ 95,000,000 $ 130,000,000
*These are projected figures, WTI does not guarantee sales.
Due to the fact the contract start date of November overlaps with our current #R180903 contract which expires February
29, 2024, sales will continue under #R180903 creating a transition year between #R180903 and #R23-04 in year one. There
will be residual sales under #R180903 from proposed work but not awarded and from maintenance and warranty contracts
that are multi-year agreements.
i. To the extent Supplier guarantees minimum Contract Sales, the administration fee shall be calculated based on the greater of
the actual Contract Sales and the Guaranteed Contract Sales.
While many public agencies value our OMNIA contracts there are many factors that go into securing a sale including how
a public agency would like to procure our solutions, including agency-specific contract preferences, agency procurement
policy, administrative and legislative procurement policy. The intent of our response, and contract, is to continue to provide
OMNIA members a vehicle for which they can easily and compliantly procure needed roofing and building envelope
solutions. Based on the needs of servicing OMNIA members, WTI will aggressively promote this contract with the intent of
producing sales under this contract as we have under our Current Roofing Products, Services and Job-Order-Contracting
contract that is reaching its expiration. However, due to the speculative and unique nature of the services we provide,
including legislative and administrative code challenges, we do not have the ability to guarantee sales.
M. Even Though it is Anticipated Many Public Agencies will be able to Utilize the Master Agreement Without
Further Formal Solicitation, there Maybe Circumstances Where Public Agencies Will Issue their Own
Solicitations. The Following Options are Available When Responding to a Solicitation for Products Covered
Under the Master Agreement.
i. Respond with Master Agreement Pricing (Contract Sales Reported to OMNIA Partners, Public Sector).
ii. If Competitive Conditions Require Pricing Lower Than the Standard Master Agreement Not-To-Exceed Pricing, Supplier May
Respond with Lower Pricing Through the Master Agreement. If Supplier is Awarded the Contract, the Sales are Reported as
Contract Sales to OMNIA Partners, Public Sector Under the Master Agreement.

iii. Respond with Pricing Higher Than Master Agreement Only in the Unlikely Event that the Public Agency Refuses to Utilize Master
Agreement (Contract Sales are Not Reported to OMNIA Partners, Public Sector).
iv. If Alternative or Multiple Proposals are Permitted, Respond with Pricing Higher than Master Agreement, and Include Master
Agreement as the Alternate or Additional Proposal.
Detail Supplier’s Strategies Under these Options When Responding to a Solicitation.
As mentioned previously, there are many factors that go into how a public agency would like to procure our solutions
which include traditional bidding of products. Tremco/WTI will, if electing to respond to such solicitations, will respond
as we do in our normal course of our traditional business outside of our OMNIA contracts.
ii. The Successful Offeror will be Required to Sign Appendix D, Exhibit B, OMNIA Partners Administration
Agreement Prior to Contract Award. Offerors Should have Any Reviews Required to Sign the Document
Prior to Submitting a Response. Offeror’s Response Should Include any Proposed Exceptions to OMNIA
Partners Administration Agreement on Appendix B, Terms and Conditions Acceptance Form.
WTI has reviewed Appendix D, Exhibit B, OMNIA Partners Administration Agreement and included exceptions/proposed
modifications on Appendix B, Terms and Conditions Acceptance Form, as required.
iii. Include Completed Appendix D, Exhibits F. Federal Funds Certifications and G. New Jersey Business
Compliance.

entered into by and between those certain government agencies that execute a Principal
Procurement Agency Certificate (“Principal Procurement Agencies”) with National
Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance Company, a Delaware corporation d/b/a OMNIA
Partners, Public Sector, Communities Program Management, LLC, a California limited liability
company d/b/a U.S. Communities, and/or NCPA LLC, a Texas limited liability company d/b/a
National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (collectively, “OMNIA Partners”), in its capacity as the
cooperative administrator, to be appended and made a part hereof and such other public
agencies (“Participating Public Agencies”) who register to participate in the cooperative
purchasing programs administered by OMNIA Partners and its affiliates and subsidiaries
(collectively, the “OMNIA Partners Parties”) by either registering on the OMNIA Partners website
(www.omniapartners.com/publicsector or any successor website), or by executing a copy of this
Agreement.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, after a competitive solicitation and selection process by Principal Procurement
Agencies, in compliance with their own policies, procedures, rules and regulations, a number of
suppliers have entered into “Master Agreements” (herein so called) to provide a variety of
goods, products and services (“Products”) to the applicable Principal Procurement Agency and
the Participating Public Agencies;
WHEREAS, Master Agreements are made available by Principal Procurement Agencies through
the OMNIA Partners Parties and provide that Participating Public Agencies may purchase
Products on the same terms, conditions and pricing as the Principal Procurement Agency, subject
to any applicable federal and/or local purchasing ordinances and the laws of the State of
purchase; and
WHEREAS, in addition to Master Agreements, the OMNIA Partners Parties may from time to
time offer Participating Public Agencies the opportunity to acquire Products through other group
purchasing agreements.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, and
of the mutual benefits to result, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Each party will facilitate the cooperative procurement of Products.
2. The Participating Public Agencies shall procure Products in accordance with and
subject to the relevant federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations that govern
Participating Public Agency’s procurement practices. The Participating Public Agencies hereby
acknowledge and agree that it is the intent of the parties that all provisions of this Agreement and
that Principal Procurement Agencies’ participation in the program described herein comply with all
applicable laws, including but not limited to the requirements of 42 C.F.R. § 1001.952(j), as may be
amended from time to time. The Participating Public Agencies further acknowledge and agree that
they are solely responsible for their compliance with all applicable “safe harbor” regulations, including
but not limited to any and all obligations to fully and accurately report discounts and incentives.
Page 65
3. The Participating Public Agency represents and warrants that the Participating Public
Agency is not a hospital or other healthcare provider and is not purchasing Products on behalf of a
hospital or healthcare provider; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit Participating Public
Agency from furnishing health care services so long as the furnishing of health care services is not
in furtherance of a primary purpose of the Participating Public Agency.
4. The cooperative use of Master Agreements shall be in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Master Agreements, except as modification of those terms and conditions is
otherwise required by applicable federal, state or local law, policies or procedures.
5. The Principal Procurement Agencies will make available, upon reasonable request,
Master Agreement information which may assist in improving the procurement of Products by the
Participating Public Agencies.
6. The Participating Public Agency agrees the OMNIA Partners Parties may provide
access to group purchasing organization (“GPO”) agreements directly or indirectly by enrolling the
Participating Public Agency in another GPO’s purchasing program, provided that the purchase of
Products through the OMNIA Partners Parties or any other GPO shall be at the Participating Public
Agency’s sole discretion.
7. The Participating Public Agencies (each a “Procuring Party”) that procure Products
through any Master Agreement or GPO Product supply agreement (each a “GPO Contract”) will
make timely payments to the distributor, manufacturer or other vendor (collectively, “Supplier”) for
Products received in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement or GPO
Contract, as applicable. Payment for Products and inspections and acceptance of Products ordered
by the Procuring Party shall be the exclusive obligation of such Procuring Party. Disputes between
Procuring Party and any Supplier shall be resolved in accordance with the law and venue rules of
the State of purchase unless otherwise agreed to by the Procuring Party and Supplier.
8. The Procuring Party shall not use this Agreement as a method for obtaining additional
concessions or reduced prices for purchase of similar products or services outside of the Master
Agreement. Master Agreements may be structured with not-to-exceed pricing, in which cases the
Supplier may offer the Procuring Party and the Procuring Party may accept lower pricing or additional
concessions for purchase of Products through a Master Agreement.
9. The Procuring Party shall be responsible for the ordering of Products under this
Agreement. A non-procuring party shall not be liable in any fashion for any violation by a Procuring
Party, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Procuring Party shall hold non-procuring
party harmless from any liability that may arise from the acts or omissions of the Procuring Party.
10. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, THE OMNIA
PARTNERS PARTIES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES REGARDING ANY PRODUCT, MASTER AGREEMENT AND GPO
CONTRACT. THE OMNIA PARTNERS PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR ANY
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR RELIANCE
DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE OMNIA PARTNERS PARTIES ARE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES. FURTHER, THE PROCURING PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT THE OMNIA PARTNERS PARTIES SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ACT OR
OMISSION BY A SUPPLIER OR OTHER PARTY UNDER A MASTER AGREEMENT OR GPO
Version February 24, 2023

CONTRACT.
11. This Agreement shall remain in effect until termination by either party giving thirty (30)
days’ written notice to the other party. The provisions of Paragraphs 6 - 10 hereof shall survive any
such termination.
12. This Agreement shall take effect upon (i) execution of the Principal Procurement
Agency Certificate, or (ii) registration on the OMNIA Partners website or the execution of this
Agreement by a Participating Public Agency, as applicable.

DEFINITIONS
Contract means a legal instrument by which a non–Federal entity purchases property or services needed to carry out the
project or program under a Federal award. The term as used in this part does not include a legal instrument, even if the
non–Federal entity considers it a contract, when the substance of the transaction meets the definition of a Federal award or
subaward
Contractor means an entity that receives a contract as defined in Contract.
Cooperative agreement means a legal instrument of financial assistance between a Federal awarding agency or pass-
through entity and a non–Federal entity that, consistent with 31 U.S.C. 6302–6305:
(a) Is used to enter into a relationship the principal purpose of which is to transfer anything of value from the Federal
awarding agency or pass-through entity to the non–Federal entity to carry out a public purpose authorized by a law of
the United States (see 31 U.S.C. 6101(3)); and not to acquire property or services for the Federal government or
pass-through entity's direct benefit or use;
(b) Is distinguished from a grant in that it provides for substantial involvement between the Federal awarding agency
or pass-through entity and the non–Federal entity in carrying out the activity contemplated by the Federal award.
(c) The term does not include:
(1) A cooperative research and development agreement as defined in 15 U.S.C. 3710a; or
(2) An agreement that provides only:
(i) Direct United States Government cash assistance to an individual;
(ii) A subsidy;
(iii) A loan;
(iv) A loan guarantee; or
(v) Insurance.
Federal awarding agency means the Federal agency that provides a Federal award directly to a non–Federal entity
Federal award has the meaning, depending on the context, in either paragraph (a) or (b) of this section:
(a)(1) The Federal financial assistance that a non–Federal entity receives directly from a Federal awarding agency or
indirectly from a pass-through entity, as described in § 200.101 Applicability; or
(2) The cost-reimbursement contract under the Federal Acquisition Regulations that a non–Federal entity
receives directly from a Federal awarding agency or indirectly from a pass-through entity, as described in §
200.101 Applicability.
(b) The instrument setting forth the terms and conditions. The instrument is the grant agreement, cooperative
agreement, other agreement for assistance covered in paragraph (b) of § 200.40 Federal financial assistance, or the
cost-reimbursement contract awarded under the Federal Acquisition Regulations.

FEMA SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Awarded Supplier(s) may need to respond to events and losses where products and services are
needed for the immediate and initial response to emergency situations such as, but not limited to, water
damage, fire damage, vandalism cleanup, biohazard cleanup, sewage decontamination, deodorization,
and/or wind damage during a disaster or emergency situation. By submitting a proposal, the Supplier is
accepted these FEMA Special Conditions required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA).
“Contract” in the below pages under FEMA SPECIAL CONDITIONS is also referred to and defined as
the “Master Agreement”.
“Contractor” in the below pages under FEMA SPECIAL CONDITIONS is also referred to and defined as
“Supplier” or “Awarded Supplier”.
Conflicts of Interest
No employee, officer, or agent may participate in the selection, award, or administration of a contract
supported by a FEMA award if he or she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. Such a conflict would
arise when the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner,
or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of these parties, has a financial or other
interest in or a tangible personal benefit from a firm considered for award. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1); See
also Standard Form 424D, ¶ 7; Standard Form 424B, ¶ 3. i. FEMA considers a “financial interest” to be
the potential for gain or loss to the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate
family, his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of these parties
as a result of the particular procurement. The prohibited financial interest may arise from ownership of
certain financial instruments or investments such as stock, bonds, or real estate, or from a salary,
indebtedness, job offer, or similar interest that might be affected by the particular procurement. ii. FEMA
considers an “apparent” conflict of interest to exist where an actual conflict does not exist, but where a
reasonable person with knowledge of the relevant facts would question the impartiality of the employee,
officer, or agent participating in the procurement. c. Gifts. The officers, employees, and agents of the
Participating Public Agency nor the Participating Public Agency (“NFE”) must neither solicit nor accept
gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from contractors or parties to subcontracts. However,
NFE’s may set standards for situations in which the financial interest is de minimus, not substantial, or
the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal value. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1). d. Violations. The NFE’s written
standards of conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards
by officers, employees, or agents of the NFE. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1). For example, the penalty for a
NFE’s employee may be dismissal, and the penalty for a contractor might be the termination of the
contract.
Contractor Integrity
A contractor must have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics. Contractors that are
debarred or suspended, as described in and subject to the debarment and suspension regulations
implementing Executive Order 12549, Debarment and Suspension (1986) and Executive Order 12689,
Debarment and Suspension (1989) at 2 C.F.R. Part 180 and the Department of Homeland Security’s
regulations at 2 C.F.R. Part 3000 (Non-procurement Debarment and Suspension), must be rejected and
cannot receive contract awards at any level.
Notice of Legal Matters Affecting the Federal Government
In the event FTA or DOT funding is used by Participating Public Agency, Contractor agrees to:
1) The Contractor agrees that if a current or prospective legal matter that may affect the Federal
Government emerges, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Participating Public Agency of the
legal matter in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §§ 180.220 and 1200.220.
Version February 24, 2023
Page 80
2) The types of legal matters that require notification include, but are not limited to, a major dispute,
breach, default, litigation, or naming the Federal Government as a party to litigation or a legal
disagreement in any forum for any reason.
3) The Contractor further agrees to include the above clause in each subcontract, at every tier,
financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by the FTA.
Public Policy
A contractor must comply with the public policies of the Federal Government and state, local
government, or tribal government. This includes, among other things, past and current compliance with
the:
a. Equal opportunity and nondiscrimination laws
b. Five affirmative steps described at 2 C.F.R. § 200.321(b) for all subcontracting under contracts
supported by FEMA financial assistance; and FEMA Procurement Guidance June 21, 2016 Page IV- 7
c. Applicable prevailing wage laws, regulations, and executive orders
Affirmative Steps
For any subcontracting opportunities, Contractor must take the following Affirmative steps:
1. Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation
lists;
2. Assuring that small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises are solicited
whenever they are potential sources;
3. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit
maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises;
4. Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which encourage participation by
small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises; and
5. Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as the Small Business
Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce.
Bid Guarantee
For proposals that are to include construction/reconstruction/renovation and related services, bids must
be accompanied by Certified or Cashier’s Check or an approved Bid Bond in the amount of not less
than five percent (5%) of the total bid. Surety shall provide a copy of the Power of Attorney authorizing
the Executing Agent the authority to execute the bid bond documents and bind the surety to the bid
bond conditions. The bid bond shall have a corporate Surety that is licensed to conduct business in the
state of the lead agency and authorized to underwrite bonds in the amount of the bid bond.
Prevailing Wage Requirements
When applicable, the awarded Contractor (s) and any and all subcontractor(s) agree to comply with all
laws regarding prevailing wage rates including the Davis-Bacon Act, applicable to this solicitation and/or
Participating Public Agencies. The Participating Public Agency shall notify the Contractor of the
applicable pricing/prevailing wage rates and must apply any local wage rates requested. The Contractor
and any subcontractor(s) shall comply with the prevailing wage rates set by the Participating Public
Agency.
Federal Requirements
Version February 24, 2023
Page 81
If products and services are issued in response to an emergency or disaster recovery the items below,
located in this FEMA Special Conditions section of the Federal Funds Certifications, are activated and
required when federal funding may be utilized.
2 C.F.R. § 200.326 and 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II, Required Contract Clauses
1. CONTRACT REMEDIES
Contracts for more than the federal simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), the dollar amount below
which an NFE may purchase property or services using small purchase methods, currently set at
$250,000 for procurements made on or after June 20, 2018,4 must address administrative,
contractual, or legal remedies in instances where contractors violate or breach contract terms and
must provide for sanctions and penalties as appropriate.
1.1 Applicability
This contract provision is required for contracts over the SAT, currently set at $250,000 for
procurements made on or after June 20, 2018. Although not required for contracts at or below the
SAT, FEMA suggests including a remedies provision.
1.2 Additional Considerations
For FEMA’s Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program, recipients must include a penalty
clause in all contracts for any AFG-funded vehicle, regardless of dollar amount. In that situation,
the contract must include a clause addressing that non-delivery by the contract’s specified date or
other vendor nonperformance will require a penalty of no less than $100 per day until such time
that the vehicle, compliant with the terms of the contract, has been accepted by the recipient. This
penalty clause should, however, account for force majeure or acts of God. AFG recipients should
refer to the applicable year’s Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for additional information,
which can be accessed at FEMA.gov.
2. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE AND CONVENIENCE
a. Standard. All contracts in excess of $10,000 must address termination for cause and for
convenience by the non-Federal entity, including the manner by which it will be effected
and the basis for settlement. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(B).
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement
programs.
3. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
When applicable:
a. Standard. Except as otherwise provided under 41 C.F.R. Part 60, all contracts that meet
the definition of “federally assisted construction contract” in 41 C.F.R.
§ 60-1.3 must include the equal opportunity clause provided under 41 C.F.R. § 60- 1.4(b),
in accordance with Executive Order 11246, Equal Employment Opportunity (30 Fed. Reg.
12319, 12935, 3 C.F.R. Part, 1964-1965 Comp., p.
339), as amended by Executive Order 11375, Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating
to Equal Employment Opportunity, and implementing regulations at 41
C.F.R. Part 60 (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal Employment
Opportunity, Department of Labor). See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(C).
Version February 24, 2023
Page 82
b. Key Definitions.
i. Federally Assisted Construction Contract. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-
1.3 defines a “federally assisted construction contract” as any agreement or
modification thereof between any applicant and a person for construction work which
is paid for in whole or in part with funds obtained from the Government or borrowed
on the credit of the Government pursuant to any Federal program involving a grant,
contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, or undertaken pursuant to any Federal
program involving such grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, or any
application or modification thereof approved by the Government for a grant, contract,
loan, insurance, or guarantee under which the applicant itself participates in the
construction work.
ii. Construction Work. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.3 defines “construction work”
as the construction, rehabilitation, alteration, conversion, extension, demolition or
repair of buildings, highways, or other changes or improvements to real property,
including facilities providing utility services. The term also includes the supervision,
inspection, and other onsite functions incidental to the actual construction.
c. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement
programs.
d. Required Language. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-1.4(b) requires the insertion of
the following contract clause.
During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
(1) The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for
employment because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or
national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are
employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their
race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. Such
action shall include, but not be limited to the following:
Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising;
layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for
training, including apprenticeship. The contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places,
available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting
forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
(2) The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or
on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration
for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity, or national origin.
(3) The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any
employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired
about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another
employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee
who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a
part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other
Version February 24, 2023
Page 83
employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such
information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in
furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation
conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the contractor's legal duty to furnish
information.
(4) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which
he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to
be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of the contractor's
commitments under this section and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous
places available to employees and applicants for employment.
(5) The contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September
24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.
(6) The contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order
11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of
Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by
the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to
ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
(7) In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of
this contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be
canceled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be
declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction
contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of
September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked
as provided in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or
order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.
(8) The contractor will include the portion of the sentence immediately preceding
paragraph (1) and the provisions of paragraphs (1) through (8) in every subcontract or
purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of
Labor issued pursuant to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965,
so that such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The
contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the
administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including
sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened
with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the
administering agency, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such
litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
The applicant further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause
with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted
construction work: Provided, That if the applicant so participating is a State or local
government, the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency,
instrumentality or subdivision of such government which does not participate in work on
or under the contract.
The applicant agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering
agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and
subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant
orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the
Version February 24, 2023
Page 84
Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the supervision of such
compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge of
the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance.
The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract
modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor

of 40 hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the
worker is compensated at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of
pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in the work week. Further, no laborer or
mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working conditions which
are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous.
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA contracts awarded by the non- federal
entity in excess of $100,000 under grant and cooperative agreement programs that involve
the employment of mechanics or laborers. It is applicable to construction work. These
requirements do not apply to the purchase of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily
available on the open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of
intelligence.
c. Suggested Language. The regulation at 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(b) provides contract clause
language concerning compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards
Act. FEMA suggests including the following contract clause:
Compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act.
(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of
the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics
shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she
is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such
laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half
times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
Version February 24, 2023
Page 87
(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation
of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section the contractor and any
subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such
contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work
done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such
territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with
respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards,
employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, in the sum
of
$27 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in
excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages
required by the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section.
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The Federal agency or
loan/grant recipient shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized
representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from any
moneys payable on account of work performed by the contractor or subcontractor under
any such contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any
other federally-assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety
Standards Act, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as may be
determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor
for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause set forth in
paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the
clauses set forth in paragraph (b)(1) through (4) of this section and also a clause requiring
the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime
contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier
subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (b)(1) through (4) of this section.
7. RIGHTS TO INVENTIONS MADE UNDER A CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT
a. Standard. If the FEMA award meets the definition of “funding agreement” under 37C.F.R.
§ 401.2(a) and the non-Federal entity wishes to enter into a contract with a small business
firm or nonprofit organization regarding the substitution of parties, assignment or
performance of experimental, developmental, or research work under that “funding
agreement,” the non- Federal entity must comply with the requirements of 37 C.F.R. Part
401 (Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms
Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements), and any
implementing regulations issued by FEMA. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(F).
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to “funding agreements,” but it DOES NOT apply
to the Public Assistance, Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Fire Management Assistance
Grant Program, Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Grant Program, Disaster Case
Management Grant Program, and Federal Assistance to Individuals and Households –
Other Needs Assistance Grant Program, as FEMA awards under these programs do not
meet the definition of “funding agreement.”
c. Funding Agreements Definition. The regulation at 37 C.F.R. § 401.2(a) defines “funding
agreement” as any contract, grant, or cooperative agreement entered into between any
Federal agency, other than the Tennessee Valley Authority, and any contractor for the
performance of experimental, developmental, or research work funded in whole or in part
by the Federal government. This term also includes any assignment, substitution of
parties, or subcontract of any type entered into for the performance of experimental,
Version February 24, 2023
Page 88
developmental, or research work under a funding agreement as defined in the first
sentence of this paragraph.

as amended (33 U.S.C. §§ 1251-1387). Violations must be reported to FEMA and the
Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200,
Appendix II(G).

amounts in excess of $150,000 under a federal grant.
c. Suggested Language. The following provides a sample contract clause.
Clean Air Act
1. The contractor agrees to comply with all applicable standards, orders or
regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C.
§ 7401 et seq.
2. The contractor agrees to report each violation to the Participating Public
Agency and understands and agrees that the Participating Public Agency
will, in turn, report each violation as required to assure notification to the
Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the appropriate

3. The contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract
exceeding $150,000 financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance
provided by FEMA.

9. DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION
a. Standard. Non-Federal entities and contractors are subject to the debarment and
suspension regulations implementing Executive Order 12549, Debarment and
Suspension (1986) and Executive Order 12689, Debarment and Suspension (1989) at 2
C.F.R. Part 180 and the Department of Homeland Security’s regulations at 2 C.F.R. Part
3000 (Non-procurement Debarment and Suspension).
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative
agreement programs.
c. Requirements.
i. These regulations restrict awards, subawards, and contracts with certain parties
that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for
participation in Federal assistance programs and activities. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200,
Appendix II(H); and 2 C.F.R. § 200.213. A contract award must not be made to
parties listed in the SAM Exclusions. SAM Exclusions is the list maintained by the
General Services Administration that contains the names of parties debarred,
suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies, as well as parties declared
ineligible under statutory or regulatory authority other than Executive Order 12549.
SAM exclusions can be accessed at www.sam.gov. See 2 C.F.R. § 180.530.
ii. In general, an “excluded” party cannot receive a Federal grant award or a contract
within the meaning of a “covered transaction,” to include subawards and
subcontracts. This includes parties that receive Federal funding indirectly, such
as contractors to recipients and subrecipients. The key to the exclusion is whether
there is a “covered transaction,” which is any non-procurement transaction
(unless excepted) at either a “primary” or “secondary” tier. Although “covered
transactions” do not include contracts awarded by the Federal Government for
purposes of the non-procurement common rule and DHS’s implementing
regulations, it does include some contracts awarded by recipients and
subrecipients.
iii. Specifically, a covered transaction includes the following contracts for goods or
services:
1. The contract is awarded by a recipient or subrecipient in the amount of at
least $25,000.
2. The contract requires the approval of FEMA, regardless of amount.
3. The contract is for federally-required audit services.
4. A subcontract is also a covered transaction if it is awarded by the
contractor of a recipient or subrecipient and requires either the approval of
FEMA or is in excess of $25,000.
d. Suggested Language. The following provides a debarment and suspension clause. It
incorporates an optional method of verifying that contractors are not excluded or
disqualified.

180.905) are excluded (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.940) or disqualified (defined at 2
C.F.R. § 180.935).
(2) The contractor must comply with 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and2 C.F.R. pt. 3000,
subpart C, and must include a requirement to comply with these regulations in any
lower tier covered transaction it enters into.
(3) This certification is a material representation of fact relied upon by the Participating
Public Agency. If it is later determined that the contractor did not comply with 2
C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C, in addition to remedies
available to the Participating Public Agency, the Federal Government may pursue
available remedies, including but not limited to suspension and/or debarment.
(4) The bidder or proposer agrees to comply with the requirements of 2 C.F.R. pt.
180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C while this offer is valid and
throughout the period of any contract that may arise from this offer. The bidder or
proposer further agrees to include a provision requiring such compliance in its
lower tier covered transactions.
10. BYRD ANTI-LOBBYING AMENDMENT

appropriated funds to pay any person or organization for influencing or attempting to
influence an officer or employee of any agency, a Member of Congress, officer or
employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress in connection with

and provides, in Appendix A to Part 18, a copy of the certification that is required to be
completed by each entity as described in 31 U.S.C. § 1352. Each tier must also disclose
any lobbying with non-Federal funds that takes place in connection with obtaining any

incorporated by reference. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, all FTA-mandated terms
shall be deemed to control in the event of a conflict with other provisions contained in this Agreement.

Contract Officer an extension for the response if warranted. A request for reconsideration of any and
all determinations by the Contract Officer shall be filed with the Purchasing Manager within seven (7)
calendar days after the receipt of the determination.
2) A protest shall include:
a. The name, address, and telephone number, including FAX number if available, of the

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM
Public Agency Instructions
This page provides guidance to public agencies entering into contracts with business entities that are required to file
Political Contribution Disclosure forms with the agency. It is not intended to be provided to contractors. What follows
are instructions on the use of form local units can provide to contractors that are required to disclose political contributions
pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 (P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2). Additional information on the process is available in Local
Finance Notice 2006-1 (http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/resources/lfns_2006.html). Please refer back to these
instructions for the appropriate links, as the Local Finance Notices include links that are no longer operational.
1. The disclosure is required for all contracts in excess of $17,500 that are not awarded pursuant to a “fair and open”
process (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.7).
2. Due to the potential length of some contractor submissions, the public agency should consider allowing data to be
submitted in electronic form (i.e., spreadsheet, pdf file, etc.). Submissions must be kept with the contract documents
or in an appropriate computer file and be available for public access. The form is worded to accept this alternate
submission. The text should be amended if electronic submission will not be allowed.
3. The submission must be received from the contractor and on file at least 10 days prior to award of the contract.
Resolutions of award should reflect that the disclosure has been received and is on file.
4. The contractor must disclose contributions made to candidate and party committees covering a wide range of public
agencies, including all public agencies that have elected officials in the county of the public agency, state legislative
positions, and various state entities. The Division of Local Government Services recommends that contractors be
provided a list of the affected agencies. This will assist contractors in determining the campaign and political
committees of the officials and candidates affected by the disclosure.
a. The Division has prepared model disclosure forms for each county. They can be downloaded from the “County
PCD Forms” link on the Pay-to-Play web site at http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/programs/lpcl.html#12.
They will be updated from time-to-time as necessary.
b. A public agency using these forms should edit them to properly reflect the correct legislative district(s). As
the forms are county-based, they list all legislative districts in each county. Districts that do not represent
the public agency should be removed from the lists.
c. Some contractors may find it easier to provide a single list that covers all contributions, regardless of the county.
These submissions are appropriate and should be accepted.
d. The form may be used “as-is”, subject to edits as described herein.
e. The “Contractor Instructions” sheet is intended to be provided with the form. It is recommended that the
Instructions and the form be printed on the same piece of paper. The form notes that the Instructions are printed
on the back of the form; where that is not the case, the text should be edited accordingly.
f. The form is a Word document and can be edited to meet local needs, and posted for download on web sites, used
as an e-mail attachment, or provided as a printed document.
5. It is recommended that the contractor also complete a “Stockholder Disclosure Certification.” This will assist the
local unit in its obligation to ensure that contractor did not make any prohibited contributions to the committees listed
on the Business Entity Disclosure Certification in the 12 months prior to the contract (See Local Finance Notice
2006-7 for additional information on this obligation at
http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/resources/lfns_2006.html). A sample Certification form is part of this package
and the instruction to complete it is included in the Contractor Instructions. NOTE: This section is not applicable to
Boards of Education.

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM
Contractor Instructions
Business entities (contractors) receiving contracts from a public agency that are NOT awarded pursuant to a “fair and
open” process (defined at N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.7) are subject to the provisions of P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2 (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-
20.26). This law provides that 10 days prior to the award of such a contract, the contractor shall disclose contributions
to:
• any State, county, or municipal committee of a political party
• any legislative leadership committee*
• any continuing political committee (a.k.a., political action committee)
• any candidate committee of a candidate for, or holder of, an elective office:
o of the public entity awarding the contract
o of that county in which that public entity is located
o of another public entity within that county
o or of a legislative district in which that public entity is located or, when the public entity is a county, of
any legislative district which includes all or part of the county
The disclosure must list reportable contributions to any of the committees that exceed $300 per election
cycle that were made during the 12 months prior to award of the contract. See N.J.S.A. 19:44A-8 and
19:44A-16 for more details on reportable contributions.
N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 itemizes the parties from whom contributions must be disclosed when a business
entity is not a natural person. This includes the following:
• individuals with an “interest” ownership or control of more than 10% of the profits or assets of a business entity
or 10% of the stock in the case of a business entity that is a corporation for profit
• all principals, partners, officers, or directors of the business entity or their spouses
• any subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity
• IRS Code Section 527 New Jersey based organizations, directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity
and filing as continuing political committees, (PACs).
When the business entity is a natural person, “a contribution by that person’s spouse or child, residing
therewith, shall be deemed to be a contribution by the business entity.” [N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26(b)] The
contributor must be listed on the disclosure.
Any business entity that fails to comply with the disclosure provisions shall be subject to a fine imposed by
ELEC in an amount to be determined by the Commission which may be based upon the amount that the
business entity failed to report.
The enclosed list of agencies is provided to assist the contractor in identifying those public agencies whose
elected official and/or candidate campaign committees are affected by the disclosure requirement. It is the
contractor’s responsibility to identify the specific committees to which contributions may have been made
and need to be disclosed. The disclosed information may exceed the minimum requirement.
The enclosed form, a content-consistent facsimile, or an electronic data file containing the required details
(along with a signed cover sheet) may be used as the contractor’s submission and is disclosable to the
public under the Open Public Records Act.
The contractor must also complete the attached Stockholder Disclosure Certification. This will assist the
agency in meeting its obligations under the law. NOTE: This section does not apply to Board of
Education contracts.

N.J.S.A. 19:44A-3(s): “The term "legislative leadership committee" means a committee established,
authorized to be established, or designated by the President of the Senate, the Minority Leader of the
Senate, the Speaker of the General Assembly or the Minority Leader of the General Assembly pursuant to
section 16 of P.L.1993, c.65 (C.19:44A-10.1) for the purpose of receiving contributions and making

iv. Describe How Offeror Responds to Emergency Service Requests.
WTI understands the importance of providing responsive service. As such, we offer service 24 hours a day, seven days per
week, 365 days per year (24/7/365). In the event of an emergency situation, OMNIA members can contact 877-587-3626
with their assigned account number. The call will then be dispatched to our key personnel for response. Response time is
established with the account to define emergency (two- to four-hour response), standard (24- to 48-hour response), etc.
The dispatch for each location includes up to four points-of-contact (POCs), as shown below, to ensure effective response.
1 WTI Technician 1
2 WTI Technician 2
3 WTI Contractor
4 WTI Technical Advisor
Upon dispatch, the appropriate Technical Advisor will be notified of the issue for follow through. The Technical Advisor
ensures that the request was completed and verifies WTI’s and Tremco’s financial responsibility.
Each member will be provided a process and an account number upon completion of a project or purchase of a warranty.
The process will include an 800 number for 24/7 response at no additional cost to the member. As part of the warranty,
WTI will provide 24 hours a day/seven days a week Emergency Leak Response at no additional cost. Regardless of whether
the leak is related to defective materials, wear and tear or storm-related damage (within the terms of the warranty), the
dispatch center logs the call for priority treatment, assuring a fast, efficient response. We will perform all emergency roof
system leak repairs required in accordance with our Leak Response Program and warranty terms. The leak will be repaired
immediately unless weather or other conditions prevent such work, in which case the repair schedule will be coordinated
with the member to be accomplished at the next available time period.
Proposals for standard orders are typically processed in one to three days while proposals for emergency orders are
typically provided within 72 hours of notification, depending upon the scope and geographic location of the project. These
times may vary depending upon unforeseen conditions and/or remote locations; however, our processes and procedures
are designed to accommodate these time frames.
Our key personnel have experience responding to several emergency project situations. In these instances, working
with the customer to respond to such conditions is our first priority. We also rely on long-standing relationships with
contractors who also respect this level of service and are available on-site 24/7. Through our Construction Managers
and Superintendents, we also have the knowledge and software tools to effectively estimate damage-control costs in a
matter of hours. OMNIA members can expect no less than 24/7 on-call service from WTI on the service agreement. WTI
is also available during natural disasters such as fires, floods and winter storms to assist with disaster response, offering
members with priority service. For emergency/disaster response, we use an Emergency Service Agreement/Disaster
Response form to expedite typical purchase order procedures. We follow up our emergency-response services with the
required documentation for the client.

After hours customer service needs are handled on a case-by-case basis. We make every effort to meet our customers’
needs. Often, we staff our Customer Service Representatives to be able to accommodate not only daily needs but also
emergency needs.
Our response times, including emergency leak response, will remain constant across all regions, however, adjustments
to these response times will be made regarding remote geographical locations. In these instances, response times will be
clearly communicated regarding safety, reasonable time frames and availability and mobility of personnel and equipment.
Our ability to service all regions at the same level is made possible through our diverse personnel resources located across
the United States and is supplemented by our extensive contractor database.
v. Describe Offeror’s Ability to Meet Service and Warranty Needs.
WTI and Tremco benefit OMNIA members by offering an all-encompassing service and product portfolio complete with
manufacturer warranties from a single source. WTI provides one of the most comprehensive warranty packages in the
roofing industry. Each of our warranties covers installation, details, flashing, materials, workmanship, inspection and
preventative maintenance. Tremco offers several product and service warranty options to participating Public Sector
Agencies to match their roofing needs as detailed below. With each of the Tremco warranties, OMNIA members will receive
a 1-800 leak response service. Please note that several of the warranties listed below are available in multi-year terms,
based on customer needs and/or requirements.
• Quality Assurance (QA) Warranty
• QA Plus
• QA Premium Warranty
• Vegetative Warranty
• Plain and Simple Warranty
• One-Year Tremco Performance Warranty (TPW)
• Material Warranty
• Warranty extension and renewals are available for OMNIA members.
Sample Warranties
Sample warranties are available to OMNIA Members upon request.

One Building Envelope. One Warranty. One Powerful
System Delivering Unmatched Protection for Your
Building
Your property is a major investment, and its building
envelope is a critical component. OMNIA members get one
chance to get it right—or spend many years and a lot of
money trying to fix it.
Made up of hundreds, even thousands, of components,
a building’s “envelope” protects interior spaces and
occupants from the outside world. That includes shielding
against the elements, excessive noise, and providing
resistance to other external disturbances.
Why cobble together an envelope with materials from
dozens of different suppliers when you can choose a
Tremco Construction Products Group (CPG) building
envelope, designed and tested to work as one continuous
system and warranted together in a single document?
Systems & Services Covered Under a Single Warranty
• Air & Vapor Barriers
• Cladding
• Glazing Systems
• Insulated Concrete Forms
• Sealants & Adhesives
• Traffic Coatings
• Waterproofing
THE MORE TREMCO CPG COMPONENTS,
THE MORE PROTECTION
Most individual building component warranties are
limited to the dollar value of the material purchased.
With a Tremco CPG warranty, the more OMNIA members
single-source from the group, the greater the dollar value
of coverage available should OMNIA members have an
issue. That’s because a Tremco CPG warranty is worth
the aggregate value of all the components purchased
from the group—providing a much larger pool should a
member have a warranted issue on any one component.

Customer service centers and hours of operations.
Location Phone/Fax Hours of Operation

Because of the number and location of these service centers, WTI can handle the customer’s needs anywhere in the nation.
If additional hours of operation are desired, WTI’s Corporate Customer Service Manager, will consider accommodating the
customer’s needs by altering the staffing within the department to provide a superior level of customer service.
After hours customer service needs are handled on a case-by-case basis. We make every effort to meet our customers’ needs.
Often, we staff our Customer Service Representatives to be able to accommodate not only daily needs but also emergency
needs. In the event of an emergency situation, OMNIA members can contact the 800-5-TREMCO phone number 24/7/365 with
their assigned account number. The call will then be dispatched for response. As previously mentioned, customer satisfaction
is a focus and differentiator for WTI and Tremco. Our talented and focused customer service staff are an important part
creating positive customer experiences and satisfaction. Through their caring, ability to problem-solve and bias for action, our
representatives have the capability to create a satisfied customer with every call. And, they do it every day!

vii. Describe Offeror’s Invoicing Process. Include Payment Terms and Acceptable Methods of Payments.
Payment terms are net 30 days. We can accept Purchase Order, credit cards, ACH or check.
SAP has the ability to track member purchases, products and services, billing, accounts payable and other accounting
functions. Through SAP, WTI can provide customized billing and reporting to OMNIA as a whole, as well as to individual
participating members. This includes management reports, consolidated billing by location, time and attendance reports
for participating Members. WTI currently uses SAP on our existing contracts that integrates manufacturing, finance,
planning, implementation and operations to:
• Improve customer relations and response times • Improve customer service and marketing efforts
• Improve performance without sacrificing quality • Support finance expenditures and resources
• Streamline manufacturing planning and execution • Streamline supply-chain planning and execution
• Increase sales • Monitor compliance
• Reduce inefficiencies • Improve best business practices
viii. Describe Offeror’s Contract Implementation/Customer Transition Plan.
WTI has successfully implemented and performed similar construction and roofing and building envelope products
and services on multiple contract awards for more many different types of cooperatives. Prior to award of a cooperative
contract, we customize our proven framework to develop a client-specific approach for implementation. Our customized
approach includes marketing, project acceptance and performance, emergency response, account management (including
invoicing) and executive support. Depending on individual member needs, we can incorporate other services to best
meet member needs. WTI has an established framework and a nationwide presence, we can easily adapt to individual
cooperative requirements.
Upon award of a cooperative contract, we implement our proven marketing approach which includes educating our in-
house staff on the contract and rolling out our services through branded marketing efforts to cooperative Members.
As previously discussed, this typically includes a combination of press releases, social-media announcements, direct
mailings, advertisements, participation in trade shows and website interactions. Beyond marketing, we also mobilize our
existing construction-management personnel to make certain we have the availability to respond to cooperative projects.
As a result of our nationwide presence, we draw from a large pool of resources to staff cooperative projects depending on
location throughout the US.
Our success with cooperative purchasing programs is demonstrated by consecutive contract awards by many cooperatives.
These renewals prove our ability to meet agency expectations as well as speak to the effectiveness of our organization to
market and perform critical services. This is evidenced in our customer satisfaction metrics, where customers awarded us a
9.1 out of 10 overall satisfaction rating and 98% of respondent customers said they would purchase our roofing systems again.

ix. Describe the financial condition of Offeror.
WTI is a building envelope industry leader and is in very good financial condition.
We are an affiliate member of the Tremco CPG, Inc. line-up of companies that make
up the largest division of RPM International, our Fortune 500 parent company. WTI
continues to see steady growth in the market and has a very healthy pipe-line of work.
x. Provide a Website Link in Order to Review Website Ease of Use, Availability, and Capabilities Related to
Ordering, Returns and Reporting. Describe the Website’s Capabilities and Functionality.
Due to the nature of our business, WTI currently does not have an on-line catalog/ordering website. These construction
projects are independently specified and built for each building component’s current condition and structure. This
requires field consulting/engineering services to design and offer the best solutions or multiple solutions for each building
component. Online catalogs do not accommodate this type of built construction. WTI will provide representatives to cover
and support all projects and does not provide an on-line catalog option.
Our Sales Representatives meet with customers to review and analyze individual facility roofing needs and propose the right
solutions and products. This one-on-one sales approach allows our Sale Representatives to gain a full understanding of the
needs of each Public Sector Agency and provide on the spot assessments of the areas of work. This approach ultimately
saves time and cost in back and forth of online ordering and allows our teams to provide the services and products the
customer needs the first time.
Tremco will allow for material only orders sold direct to end user, if needed, to be returned within 30 days of project
completion. Depending on the products’ condition, the estimated time frame to complete this return process is up to 30 days.
• Returns must be products in good condition and authorized by Tremco prior to return shipment.
The following exceptions apply:
Exception: Due to warehouse limitations, there are no returns on Tremco Insulation products or TremLock™ Custom Metal Edge.
Exception: Fastener supplier does not accept returns on Insulation Fastener Discs and limits fastener returns to 3 months from
shipment.
Exception: POWERply™ SA Base Sheet and POWERply™ SA FR returns are limited to three months from shipment.
Exception: THERMastic®, THERMastic® 50, and POWERply™ Modified Hot Melt Adhesive cannot be remelted or worked off, so
returns of these four products are limited to pallets which are determined by a Tremco Representative to be in excellent condition.
• Tremco reserves the right to refuse a return of a product sold and shipped more than one year ago.
• Material must be returned in the account name under which it originally shipped.
• Return freight charges are the responsibility of the customer.

Our industry can be a very dangerous one, where one wrong move can have long lasting and sometimes devastating effects
on a family and our communities. This is why we require every employee to go through our OSHA safety training course. The
results of our commitment to people shows as we have one of the best safety records in the industry, especially for a company
of our size. The chart below illustrates WTI’s commitment to safety as we have one of the best safety records in the industry.
This is even more impressive when OMNIA members take into consideration that we are also one of the largest roofing and

xii. Performance Bond Plan - Offeror shall submit a
detailed performance bond plan that will meet
the Participating Public Agency’s local and state
statutory requirements. The Offeror is required
to be knowledgeable and current on all statutory
requirements for bonding. This should include, but
is not limited to, a letter from a surety company
that is licensed to do business in the states being
proposed in the submittal. Offerors shall also
provide a written statement acknowledging that
they can provide surety letters for any affiliates
to Region 4 ESC or participating agencies upon
request. Offerors may need to provide additional
capacity as work orders increase. Bonds will not
require that a fee be paid to Region 4 ESC. The
actual cost of the bond will be a pass-through
expense to the Participating Public Agency and
added to the purchase order.
WTI has been providing performance bonds on projects
for over 30 years in partnership with our insurance
provider, Liberty Mutual Insurance. As we provide bonding
on projects in all 50 states, WTI is experienced and
knowledgeable about providing bonding for members’
projects in accordance with all states’ laws and statutory
bonding requirements. We have enclosed a letter from
our surety agent evidencing our bonding capacity of $200
million aggregate and $100 million for a single project,
which reflect ample capacity for any project awarded under
the OMNIA 23-04 resultant contract agreement. Further,
we are able to provide surety letters as needed for any
affiliates of Region 4 ESC that may request evidence of our
ability to bond projects. Our bonding process begins at the
estimating level where costs and thresholds are identified
based upon project size and location in order to accurately
and immediately identify bonding needs before the proposal
phase starts. This process provides a quality-auditable
process, which is ISO 9001:2015 certified. As project volume
dictates, WTI will be able to confidently manage additional
capacity to provide quality services to OMNIA members.

xiii. Safety/Environmental Plan - Offeror shall
submit a detailed safety plan with their
submittal. It should specifically address how
the Offeror will implement this plan with the
subcontractors. The safety plan will need to
address OSHA compliance, environmental
compliance, drug testing, trend analysis and
noncompliance corrective action. It should
also state whether a safety officer will interact
with the Participating Public Agency’s staff and
management of safety and environmental
issues while working in occupied areas.
It’s not a cliché that an organization’s greatest obligation
is to provide a safe working environment. But that
commitment takes on even more importance when a
job’s responsibilities include the kind of potential risk you
can find on a roof.
As the market leader in providing roofing solutions
and services, WTI fully recognizes what is at stake in
construction and renovation projects. We never leave the
safety and security of employees, installation teams and
other on-site trades to chance. Job site safety grounded
in proper training is without question our highest priority.
That is why every one of our roofing and building
envelope projects, no matter the size, begins
with a thorough understanding of the job site’s
potential hazards, safe work procedures, product
characteristics, equipment operation, conditions, and
specific customer requirements.
That understanding is based on the extraordinary safety
training we provide our field advisors and technical
personnel. To ensure that every installation is completed
safely and efficiently, WTI has developed a comprehensive
set of safety resources, with a strong emphasis on field
safety training, job site audits, and extensive use of
systems and communication tools.

and curb installations, roof cleaning and maintenance, joint
sealing and air barrier. In addition, we provide indoor air
quality disinfecting and sanitization solutions, as well as
vertical and horizontal concrete structure repair solutions,
including parking garages, walkways and decks.
Safety
Every one of our building envelope projects, no matter how
large or how small, begins with a thorough understanding
of the job site’s potential hazards, safe work procedures,
product characteristics, equipment operation, conditions,
and specific customer requirements. That understanding
is based on the extraordinary safety training we provide
our field advisors and technical personnel. To ensure that
every installation is completed safely and efficiently, WTI
and Tremco have developed a comprehensive set of safety
resources, with a strong emphasis on field safety training
and job site audits.
All of our field advisors receive safety training, so they
can manage the trouble-free delivery of our products
and services. All WTI employees receive at least their
OSHA 10-hour safety card. In addition, WTI ensures
we continue providing this knowledge with a core of
24 Authorized OSHA Outreach Trainers with extensive
building envelope experience. This in-house safety
expertise permits consistent and safe installation of our
systems focused on customer and site-specific health
and safety requirements.
Roof component laboratory testing
TRACE (Tremco Roof Analysis Core Evaluation) offers
building owners a detailed, cost-effective way to
determine the composition, construction and condition of
any built-up roof system. Using ASTM testing methods,
our experienced lab technicians perform 14 tests that
reveal important facts about roof composition and
condition. All analyses are done at Tremco’s state-of-the-

art research center, which is NVLAP (National Voluntary
Laboratory Accreditation Program) accredited for bulk
asbestos analysis using polarized light microscopy
(NVLAP Code 200887-0). TRACE automatically includes a
Tremco ACT® (Asbestos Core Testing).
Infrared moisture analysis
A visual inspection, while valuable as a guide, cannot
accurately pinpoint moisture below the roof surface. A
Thermocore infrared moisture analysis provides detailed
thermal map of how and where hidden moisture is located.
A sensitive infrared scanner is used at night to detect
temperature differentials across the roof; areas over
wet insulation appears warmer than surrounding areas.
OMNIA members will get the data they need to make the
best decisions within budget.
WTI offers a full range of sophisticated analytical,
maintenance and information-based services with one
simple goal—to maximize the life of the building envelope
and protect the value of the building. We understand
that before the right roofing decision can be made, it is
critical to know what is right for each particular roof. This
requires technical information about current conditions—
its membrane type and bitumen—because these
technicalities can make a drastic difference in the cost of
any planned roof work.
Small roofing problems can easily snowball into large,
expensive issues. Our TremCare® maintenance program
helps prevent premature deterioration and keeps roofing
assets in top working order. With WTI’s trained roofing
technicians performing regularly scheduled inspections,
housekeeping and maintenance, problems are uncovered
and corrected early to prevent. Available for any kind
of roofing system, TremCare® programs are carefully
prepared and customized to suit all buildings and budgets.
Protection Under One Roof

choose the roofing maintenance and protection
program that’s right for them. And with OLI®, our On-

that do not want the advantages of a TremCare®

Used either on its own or as the central component of
TremCare® Gold and Platinum, OLI® represents the
latest in web-based information management systems.
OLI® can manage any combination of drawings, photos,
service activity reports, budgets, warranties, lifespan
projections and much more. Data is available 24/7 in a
secure, password-protected area of our website.
Some customers want us only to repair leaks and not to
provide other maintenance activities. These customers
can take advantage of our 24-hour-a-day leak line
through the Tremsource® program.
Asset Management
If OMNIA members want to manage their own roofing
assets, WTI will conduct an extensive inventory of the
condition of all roofs to establish immediate needs and
then enter the data into OLI® for their use.
TremCare® GOLD
Since general rooftop housekeeping and preventive
maintenance are equally important, WTI experts will plan
and prioritize both after thoroughly inspecting the roofs.
Detecting and repairing problems early saves money,
reduces downtime and damage to the roof, and prevents
premature deterioration. TremCare® Gold offers the
following services:
• Housekeeping: WTI will remove incidental debris
(leaves, branches, paper, etc.) from the roof,
drains and gutters during scheduled, periodic
housekeeping operations.
• Preventive Maintenance: WTI will maintain roofs in
their present condition by making minor repairs to
the membrane and flashing systems. Preventive
maintenance is not designed to restore neglected
roofs to new condition.

TremCare® PLATINUM
In addition to the services of TremCare® Gold, TremCare®
Platinum takes both the worry and the costs out of leaks.
Quite simply, the repairs are on us if the roof leaks.
Previously neglected roofs may require repairs or
upgrades before TremCare® Platinum can be instituted.
Eliminating additional costs for on-site visits to repair
leaks also simplifies maintenance budgets. TremCare®
Platinum is intended for non-Tremco roofing systems or
Tremco roofs that are out of warranty.
Other Services
Thermocore® Roof Moisture Analysis
Provides a detailed thermal map of hidden moisture. The
data can be used to focus repairs on the roof’s problem
areas, saving money on repair work.
TRACE® and ACT®
Can answer questions about a roof’s make-up. The Tremco
Roof Analysis Core Evaluation (TRACE) provides rigorous
lab data on the construction, composition and condition of
any built-up roofing system. ACT (Asbestos Core Testing)
helps to accurately determine the exact percentage and
type of asbestos found in each ply and the adhesive or
mastic. ACT is included as part of a TRACE analysis.
Moisture probes are used to verify wet areas, and the
results of the infrared survey are confirmed by taking core
samples. Some physical testing is necessary to measure
the quantity of moisture at the core site and details of the
roof construction. All roof cores and moisture probes are
immediately repaired with Tremco materials to ensure
waterproofing continuity.

Leak Response
Water leaking into the building is not only a nuisance, it can also
cause significant damage to the building and danger to visitors.
WTI offers a full range of sophisticated analytical, maintenance
and information-based services with one simple goal—to
maximize the life of the roof and protect the value of the building.
Roof and building assets experience abuse every day from
weather, movement, modifications and traffic. As roofs age,
minor problems may occur such as tears and splits in the
roof membrane, and cracks and deterioration of the walls.
Although these defects may not be severe, if not repaired
promptly they can become major problems and lead to a large
capital expense.
WTI can provide professional crews to handle these
maintenance issues. Offering timely service, superior
workmanship and quality materials, our dedicated repair
crews are available on either a contract or time-and-materials
basis to meet budgetary needs.
• Advantages Of Utilizing WTI’s Maintenance Crews

Flashing Repairs and Installation
The most common reason for premature roof failure is flashing
problems. Our crews will repair or replace failing flashings
with reinforcement membranes designed to be compatible
with your roof system.
Drain and Curb Installations
Ponding water may also cause roof deterioration. Installation
of new drains may alleviate this problem.

Collect and Analyze Building Data from Your Roofs and
Facades Quickly, Thoroughly and Cost Effectively
OMNIA members need to know if their roofs and facades are
in good shape, or damaged by problems like ponding water;
holes, gaps and cracks; torn membranes; soaked insulation;
spalling concrete. Are they airtight, or leaking energy? Are they
safe? Building owners need to really know their condition in

QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE Roofing Products, Services, and

order to plan well. But mapping roofs and facades, difficult at
best, is prohibitive if buildings are hundreds of feet tall, cover
acres or are part of a campus. There was no good way to do
this until now. Until SkyBEAM™ from WTI.
The Future Of Facility Mapping Takes Off
The groundbreaking SkyBEAM™ (Building Envelope Asset
Mapping) system is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with
interchangeable, high-resolution still and infrared (IR, or
thermal) cameras that help our customers understand the
exact condition of their facilities before any work begins, and
afterwards to ensure that the project was properly completed.
SkyBEAM™ gathers building data quickly, thoroughly and
safely. One of our tens of thousands of licensed* UAV pilots in
the US and Canada will program SkyBEAM™ to fly to a specific
height, do the mapping and return. SkyBEAM™ can map tall
buildings without scaffolding, identifying problems that would
have been virtually impossible to find before. It can map
buildings with millions of square feet of roofing in a few hours,
yet is cost effective enough to use with much smaller facilities.
Pinpointing Building Energy Issues
SkyBEAM™’s infrared camera detects heat variations around
the roof, which often result from wet insulation retaining heat
longer than dry insulation. These variations usually mean
that the building is losing energy. Thermal mapping is most
effective at night when the sun is not heating the building.
The SkyBEAM™ pilot flies the roof in a programmed pattern,
taking numerous thermal photographs that are combined into
a single large image (an orthomosaic) showing the location
of irregularities that require verification. Technicians can
then safely verify these areas during the day for removal,
replacement or further analysis. Nobody sets foot on the roof
in the dark to map it.
Exceptional Reporting Clearly Shows
the Building’s Condition
SkyBEAM™’s detailed reporting separates it from other UAV
systems and is one of its great benefits, providing actionable
data to use in making building decisions.

Roof thermal images are
compiled into a comprehensive,
SkyBEAM™ IR interactive, easy to understand
report that clearly and accurately
shows problem areas.
All data resides in our OLI® OnLine Information system for
easy access.
Nothing Else is Like SkyBEAM™
SkyBEAM™ gives accurate visual evidence about your
buildings’ condition, especially difficult-to-map areas. It helps
to improve facility maintenance planning and budgeting, is the
safest way to conduct nighttime thermal mapping, and helps
technicians maximize their time as they easily locate and
repair rooftop damage.
With tens of thousands of licensed pilots, the use of artificial
intelligence to capture a wide range of information about
facility assets and provide detailed reports, and a history
that includes being the first FAA-approved UAV for nighttime
commercial use, SkyBEAM™ is one more example of how
Tremco Roofing’s innovations can help OMNIA members.

viii. Subcontracting Plan and/or Explanation of Applicable Affiliate Relationships -Offeror shall submit a
subcontracting plan with their submittal. This plan will explain the subcontracting procedures providing
assurances that the subcontractors meet the same high standards as the contractor. This will include a
subcontractor’s log, subcontractor qualification form, felony conviction notice and child and sex offender notice.
This plan will also address how the Offeror will implement this safety plan with subcontractors (may reference
the Offeror’s safety plan). The subcontractors will be held to the same standards as the Awarded Offeror.
A distinct portion of the subcontracting plan must deal with attracting, utilizing and mentoring small
and disadvantaged businesses including how your company will attract these firms. Describe how your
company will institute a prompt payment plan upon completion and acceptance of their work and how
your company will make progress payments to subcontractors on long term job orders.
The Offeror shall submit a plan detailing the relationship with any applicable affiliates that may do work
under this contract. This submittal should include, but is not limited to, work history, credentials, PO
processes, and process to maintain upstanding workmanship and service.
WTI and Tremco’s Small and Minority Business alliances are designed to meet both roofing and weatherproofing needs as
well as socio-economic goals. With a network of 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone and other roofing and
general construction contractors, we provide a full range of services to our customers that meet not only “Best Value”
requirements but also mandates regarding disadvantaged and underutilized small businesses.
Drawing on decades of extensive experience providing turnkey roofing, building envelope and facility management solutions
to customers in government, education, healthcare and many other industries, we work to enhance business opportunities
in those sectors for small and minority businesses. Whenever possible, the small and minority businesses we work with
are based near project sites in order to minimize mobilization and demobilization costs. We also leverage our partners’
knowledge of local working conditions, regulatory requirements and the availability of local suppliers. The program
allows us to share our extensive experience and technical expertise with each small/minority business contractor, thereby
ensuring the same quality workmanship that all Tremco Roofing contractors deliver.
WTI and Tremco has the unique ability to integrate quality assurance plans within each contract in order to measure the
quantity, quality and timeliness of all products and services delivered. Most importantly, our combined capabilities provide a
full array of services to meet the diverse needs of our government and public sector customers.
With 90+ years of experience supporting small business subcontractors, we consistently select subcontractors capable of
executing the work to ensure every customer’s satisfaction. Regarding this need to exceed our customer’s expectations, we
monitor the subcontractor’s schedule on multiple job orders to eliminate risk of overloading. This initiative allows us to firmly
manage subcontractors while maintaining costs and schedule. Tremco’s success with women-owned, minority-owned and
small business enterprises derives from treating subcontractors fairly and ensuring timely payment for services rendered.
WTI and Tremco clearly demonstrate an unwavering commitment to our entire current and fast-growing list of future
subcontractors and small business partners. More specifically, the opportunities presented with this contract would help
us grow our strategic small business partner alliances. WTI and Tremco are committed to making a good faith effort
to ensure project management and judicious treatment of subcontractors. As such, we will make every attempt—both
formally and informally—to establish and maintain an ongoing dialogue with these key contributors. Our intent is to build

Our subcontracting plans are created on a project by project basis, however, all of our subcontracting plans include
the above-referenced information at a minimum to ensure that our customers receive both quality and safety-related
essential standards at the forefront of every project. Surveillance and Performance: WTI mandates that work performed
by subcontractors is held to the same standards as self-performed tasks. Subcontractor work is monitored for progress,
quality and safety. WTI’s Superintendent manages subcontractor progress for adherence to the subcontract agreement
and the QC Plan. In this role, the Superintendent is monitoring each subcontractor’s workload and resources against the
upcoming schedule of work they are contracted to perform. The Superintendent also coordinates with the Construction
Manager so that the delivery order is being constructed according to subcontract agreements and delivery-order
specifications. The Superintendent conducts Weekly Status Meetings with each subcontractor’s Project Manager or
Foreman to review schedule, quality, safety, cleanliness, on-site professionalism, critical issues and communication. Our
commitment to quick and accurate subcontractor payments benefits the subcontractors and participating agencies with
improved timeliness and quality.
Scheduling
Once the Construction Manager and Superintendent determine the tasks that will be self-performed and subcontracted,
they identify fast-track and long-lead items before putting the subcontracted tasks out to bid. Our bidding process includes
a schedule for each scope of work that is discussed with bidders so that any scheduling conflicts are identified during the
selection process. Through our subcontractor-selection process, we select quality subcontractors capable of meeting
the scheduling requirements of the delivery orders. WTI then develops a preliminary schedule and timelines based on
information received from subcontractors during the bidding phase. The subcontractor’s final performance period and
schedule are included in a signed subcontract agreement.
Subcontractors Log
WTI requires completion of a Subcontractor Log as part of each delivery order. The Superintendent will maintain and update
the Subcontractor Log onsite during performance of field activities to reflect the firms involved and the tasks they perform.
Subcontractor Qualification Form
WTI tasks the Construction Manager with overseeing the subcontractor-selection process. Working in conjunction with
the Superintendent, the Construction Manager will utilize a best-value selection approach. Based on the scope of work for
individual delivery orders, subcontractors are notified of upcoming bids. In addition to requesting cost/price proposals, the
Construction Manager evaluates technical expertise and reliability including the specific items below.
• Past performance/experience in work scope • Location of subcontractor in relation to
delivery-order site
• Past performance/experience for Omnia
• Rapid-response/emergency-response capabilities
• Availability of manpower and resources to meet
delivery-order schedule • Ability to provide appropriate insurance and bonding
• Schedule commitment on existing delivery orders
Felony Conviction Notice and Child and Sex Offender Notice
Subcontractors selected to perform on individual delivery orders will be required to complete and submit a Felony
Conviction Notice and Child and Sex Offender Notice for personnel. These forms will be submitted to Omnia and/or
participating agencies as required by the contract.

Subcontractor Payments
WTI will make progress payments to subcontractors
based upon applications for payment submitted by
the subcontractors. Subcontractors are required to
submit monthly requisitions for payment for work
completed during the preceding month unless the
billings requirements of the participating agency contract
documents specify otherwise, and those requirements
supersede these provisions. WTI will issue progress
payments on properly submitted requisitions relating
to work performed in accordance with the contract
documents o a net 30 basis from receipt unless
different terms are expressly provided in the contract
documents. The amount of each progress payment to the
subcontractor will be equal to the following:
• The percentage of completion for the work of the
subcontractor on a monthly basis and in accordance
with the contract
• Plus, the amount allowed for materials (if any)
• Less the aggregate of previous payments to the
subcontractor, and less 10% or specified retainage
Retainage will be held until the DO has received the final
inspection and has been accepted by the participating
agency. We will not be required to pay subcontractors
more than received for our work.
Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of
the contract sum, will be made to subcontractors when
the work has been completed to the satisfaction of WTI,
Region 4 ESC, Omnia members and public agencies.

COOPERATIVE CONTRACT DELIVERY METHOD
In addition to the traditional services we have outlined in this proposal, we are excited to continue to offer the proven
Contractor Network delivery model, which is highly desired by participating agencies. The Contractor Network allows
participating agencies to capitalize on a network of highly qualified, local, best in-class and pre-qualified contractors
to perform Roofing and Job Order Contracting (JOC) services. JOC projects will be limited to roofing, building envelope,
restoration, and related services. Within this delivery model, WTI’s affiliate company, Tremco, provides Program Administration
to support the Contractor Network Program.
This delivery model provides an opportunity to work with a growing number of public agencies that desire to work with their
preferred, local, best in-class contractors, in collaboration with WTI and its affiliate company Tremco. This delivery model is
significant in that it satisfies OMNIA’s desire for a national contract for roofing and building envelope products and services
and JOC services while providing OMNIA’s members a valuable delivery model to utilize the OMNIA contract.
The Contractor Network allows participating agencies direct access to local, pre-qualified, best-in-class contractors. In this
delivery model, Tremco provides Program Administration of the process and provides performance based and warranted
technical solutions. The Contractor Network Delivery Model, like other models proposed, provides outstanding roofing
performance, which is backed by warranties and maintenance agreements to provide participating agencies comprehensive
roofing and building envelope asset management. Further, the Contractor Network Delivery Model will engage the design
community due to its transparency and the fact that the services can be competitively proposed locally.
This value-added offering along with our general contracting and material only offerings, allows OMNIA members to select
the delivery model option that best suits their needs and requirements.

CONTRACTOR NETWORK PRICING
Pricing delivered through the Contractor Network delivery model is fully transparent, consistent, and fair. The pricing
will consist of labor, material and fees associated based upon the design and scope complexity of each individual
project. The practices used to develop project pricing will be consistently applied for each project and fully transparent
to the participating agency. Each project will have specific labor skill set requirements in which a fully burdened rate
will be provided. The pricing in total will not exceed the line-item pricing or the JOC coefficients submitted by WTI with
this proposal. The awarded proposer’s labor hours used in the pricing will be consistent with the estimating guidelines
established by the most current RS Means Construction Cost Index Guide or other Construction Cost Index Guide and will
be fully auditable.
Pricing is based on the most current Online RS Means Cost Data, sorted by location code. Locations are defined as the
“closest” code, as dictated by the first three numbers of the OMNIA member’s zip code. This will be used to determine the
city cost index (CCI) at the OMNIA member’s site.
In addition, the coefficient submitted by WTI with this proposal further modifies the RS Means final price and is less than
1.0 therefore offering the OMNIA members an additional discount. This discounted percentage is found in Lines VA205 and
applies a RS Means multiplier/factor of 93%. This factor is applied in the following manner. The In-Network Contractor
will take the RS Means total item cost times .93 as the billable amount. The In-Network Contractor will furnish a line item
estimate for the unique conditions of the building from the most current RS Means Construction Cost Index Guide. Awarded
proposals will be equal to, or less than, the amount of the RS Means line item estimate, which is fully transparent, audible,
consistent and fair. Prevailing wage rates will be paid according to the requirements of each state.

Network Delivery Model. The current Contractor Network roster previously accepted into the program by Region 4 ESC

Implementation of House Bill 1295
Certificate of Interested Parties (Form 1295):
In 2015, the Texas Legislature adopted House Bill 1295, which added section 2252.908 of the
Government Code. The law states that a governmental entity or state agency may not enter
into certain contracts with a business entity unless the business entity submits a disclosure of
interested parties to the governmental entity or state agency at the time the business entity
submits the signed contract to the governmental entity or state agency. The law applies only
to a contract of a governmental entity or state agency that either (1) requires an action or vote
by the governing body of the entity or agency before the contract may be signed or (2) has a
value of at least $1 million. The disclosure requirement applies to a contract entered into on or
after January 1, 2016.
The Texas Ethics Commission was required to adopt rules necessary to implement that law,
prescribe the disclosure of interested parties form, and post a copy of the form on the
commission’s website. The commission adopted the Certificate of Interested Parties form
(Form 1295) on October 5, 2015. The commission also adopted new rules (Chapter 46) on
November 30, 2015, to implement the law. The commission does not have any additional
authority to enforce or interpret House Bill 1295.
Filing Process:
Staring on January 1, 2016, the commission made available on its website a new filing
application that must be used to file Form 1295. A business entity must use the application to
enter the required information on Form 1295 and print a copy of the completed form, which will
include a certification of filing that will contain a unique certification number. An authorized
agent of the business entity must sign the printed copy of the form. The completed Form 1295
with the certification of filing must be filed with the governmental body or state agency with
which the business entity is entering into the contract.
The governmental entity or state agency must notify the commission, using the commission’s
filing application, of the receipt of the filed Form 1295 with the certification of filing not later
than the 30th day after the date the contract binds all parties to the contract. This process is
known as acknowledging the certificate. The commission will post the acknowledged Form
1295 to its website within seven business days after receiving notice from the governmental
entity or state agency. The posted acknowledged form does not contain the declaration of
signature information provided by the business.
A certificate will stay in the pending state until it is acknowledged by the governmental agency.
Only acknowledged certificates are posted to the commission’s website.

contract.
Furthermore, Senate Bill 252 (85R Legislative Session), which amends Chapter 2252 of the

COOPERATIVE CONTRACT DELIVERY METHOD
In addition to the traditional services we have outlined in this proposal, we are excited to continue to offer the proven Contractor
Network delivery model, which is highly desired by participating agencies. The Contractor Network allows participating agencies
to capitalize on a network of highly qualified, local, best in-class and pre-qualified contractors to perform Roofing and Job
Order Contracting (JOC) services. JOC projects will be limited to roofing, building envelope, restoration, and related services.
Within this delivery model, WTI’s parent company, Tremco, provides Program Administration to support the Contractor Network
Program. This delivery model provides an opportunity to work with a growing number of public agencies that desire to work with
their preferred, local, best in-class contractors, in collaboration with WTI and its parent company Tremco. This delivery model
is significant in that it satisfies OMNIA’s desire for a national contract for roofing products and services and JOC services while
providing OMNIA’s Members a valuable delivery model to utilize the OMNIA contract.
The Contractor Network allows participating agencies direct access to local, pre-qualified, best-in-class contractors. In this
delivery model, Tremco provides Program Administration of the process and provides performance based and warranted
technical solutions. The Contractor Network Delivery Model, like other models proposed, provides outstanding roofing
performance, which is backed by warranties and maintenance agreements to provide participating agencies comprehensive
roofing and building envelope asset management. Further, the Contractor Network Delivery Model will engage the design
community due to its transparency and the fact that the services can be competitively proposed locally. This value-added
offering along with our general contracting and material only offerings, allows OMNIA participating agencies to select the
delivery model option that best suits their needs and requirements.

LOCAL/REGIONAL CONTRACTOR SUPPORT
WTI brings a vast network of resources to provide high-quality roofing and building envelope and JOC services anywhere in
the US. With field offices, personnel, and pre-qualified contractors nationwide, we have the ability to minimize our response
times and utilize cost-effective means to promote customer satisfaction. WTI works, in conjunction with Tremco, with
hundreds of contractors annually. We strive to provide participating agencies with access to highly qualified contractors
within proximity to the participating agency to the maximum extent possible. This value-add delivery model will continue
to benefit OMNIA and OMNIA members by providing a proven seamless business model that is fully transparent while
allowing for competitive proposals among pre-qualified, local, and regional contractors. This model allows participating
agencies to select Tremco’s roofing products, systems, and services, as well as other types of systems, and JOC services
while providing a process in a strategic, fully transparent manner and will be provided at a competitive price.
Each company in the Contractor Network included in the Value Add has applied, met the programs stipulated criteria, been
fully vetted, and previously accepted into the program by Region 4 Education Service Center. Each has met the following pre-
established selection criteria and meets and exceeds standards established by the NRCA. In addition, In-Network Contractors

the participating agency’s needs. The Contractor Network will be continually reviewed for the purpose of maintaining
the highest standards possible. Each contractor within the Network will be periodically reviewed and required to update
their credentials. The contractors will be evaluated on company performance, compliance, activity levels and their
demonstrated competency within this business model. The Contractor Network process is designed to provide maximum
value to participating agencies, by adding new contractors to the Contractor Network that will perform well while removing
contractors from the Contractor Network that have underperformed.

CONTRACTOR NETWORK PRICING
Pricing delivered through the Contractor Network delivery model is fully transparent, consistent, and fair. The pricing will
consist of labor, material and fees associated based upon the design and scope complexity of each individual project. The
practices used to develop project pricing will be consistently applied for each project and fully transparent to the participating
agency. Each project will have specific labor skill set requirements in which a fully burdened rate will be provided. The
pricing in total will not exceed the line-item pricing or the JOC coefficients submitted by WTI with this proposal. The awarded
proposer’s labor hours used in the pricing will be consistent with the estimating guidelines established by the most current
RS Means Construction Cost Index Guide or other Construction Cost Index Guide and will be fully auditable.
Pricing is based on the most current Online RS Means Cost Data, sorted by location code. Locations are defined as the
“closest” code, as dictated by the first three numbers of the OMNIA member’s zip code. This will be used to determine the
city cost index (CCI) at the OMNIA member’s site.
In addition, the coefficient submitted by WTI with this proposal further modifies the RS Means final price and is less than
1.0 therefore offering the OMNIA members an additional discount. This discounted percentage is found in Lines VA205 and
applies a RS Means multiplier/factor of 93%. This factor is applied in the following manner. The In-Network Contractor
will take the RS Means total item cost times .93 as the billable amount. The In-Network Contractor will furnish a line item
estimate for the unique conditions of the building from the most current RS Means Construction Cost Index Guide. Awarded
proposals will be equal to, or less than, the amount of the RS Means line item estimate, which is fully transparent, audible,
consistent and fair. Prevailing wage rates will be paid according to the requirements of each state.
The following map represents the local, pre-qualified, best-in-class companies authorized to perform under the Contractor
Network Delivery Model. The current Contractor Network roster previously accepted into the program by Region 4 ESC

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) & HVAC System Testing &
Restoration
IAQ has become one of the most important components
to help providing a safe and healthy environment for
building occupants.
Humans spend 90% of our time indoors and breathe
around 3,000 gallons of air a day. Serious pollutants can
cause certain allergic reactions, respiratory issues and
other long-term health complications. The quality of
indoor air is critical for good health.
WTI/Pure Air Controls Systems provides indoor
environmental testing & evaluations, microbiological testing
& analysis, and HVAC, building, and mold remediation to
help improve building health and occupant well-being. From
diagnostics to repair and remediation, our team of experts
can tell you if your indoor air quality is at risk of being
compromised and perform the work to safeguard it from
the consequences of unwanted air infiltration.
The HVAC system can be viewed as the cardiovascular
and respiratory system of a building. The air handler
is the heart of the system since this is where outdoor
air is drawn in, filtered, conditioned and mixed with
return air. This “supply” air is then distributed through
a network of ducts to and from areas of the building.
Basic components include dampers, fans or blowers,
heating and cooling coils, air filters, boilers or
furnaces, compressors, and ductwork.
Routine preventive maintenance is the key to avoiding
premature wear and tear on components that can
lead to costly repair or early replacement. Therefore,
it is critical to perform routine cleaning and do minor
repairs, extending equipment life and allowing for
scheduled major repairs or replacements when it has
less impact on disrupting business.

DRYVIT—OUTSULATION, SUSTAINABLE SOLUSTIONS Solicitation No. 23-04
Outsulation systems have been evaluated by the National
Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) and have
less environmental impact than other common claddings.
They can also contribute toward achieving LEED credits,
depending upon project design and location.
Outsulation systems are more cost-effective throughout
their lifecycle because the manufacturing process requires
less energy than other common claddings, and the
lightweight composition reduces fuel costs associated with
transport. After application, Outsulation systems continue
to keep heating and cooling costs low for the life of the
building. Visit dryvit.com for more information.

SYSTEM OPTIONS
All Outsulation systems include adhesive, continuous insulation (CI), fiberglass mesh embedded in base coat, and finish,
which are installed sequentially by a trained professional contractor as specified by the design team, and as required
by code. Some Outsulation systems protect the underlying wall with an air- and water-resistive barrier under the CI,
which maximizes the energy efficiency. Outsulation systems can be installed in either “barrier,” “moisture drainage”
or “pressure equalized” configurations, and these systems are engineered to perform in all climates and on all types
of structures. On certain types of construction (high-rise) and in certain job conditions (cold weather), lift-in-place,
prefabricated wall sections may provide certain benefits.
