MnDOT Agreement # 1002067 1.4. Work Order Contracts. A work order contract must be negotiated and executed (by both the State and the Local Government) for each particular engagement, except for Technical Services provided by the State to the Local Government as specified in Article 2. The work order contract must specify the detailed scope of work and deliverables for that engagement. A party must not begin work under a work order until such work order is fully executed. The terms of this Master Partnership Contract will apply to all work orders issued hereunder, unless specifically varied in the work order. The Local Government understands that this Master Contract is not a guarantee of any payments or work order assignments, and that payments will only be issued for work actually performed under fully-executed work orders. 1.5. Survival of Terms. The following clauses survive the expiration or cancellation of this master contract and all work order contracts: 12. Liability; 13. State Audits; 14. Government Data Practices and Intellectual Property; 17. Publicity; 18. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Venue; and 22. Data Disclosure. All terms of this Master Contract will survive with respect to any Work Order issued prior to the expiration date of the Master Contract. 1.6. Sample Work Order. A sample work order contract is available upon request from the State. 2. Technical Services 2.1. Technical Services include repetitive low-cost services routinely performed by the State for the Local Government. These services may be performed by the State for the Local Government without the execution of a work order, as these services are provided in accordance with standardized practices and processes and do not require a detailed scope of work. Technical services are limited to the following services: 2.1.1. Pavement Striping, Sign and Signal Repair, Bridge Load Ratings, Bridge and Structure Inspections, Minor Bridge Maintenance, Minor Road Maintenance (such as guard rail repair and sign knockdown repair), Pavement Condition Data, Materials Testing and Carcass Removal. 2.1.2. Every other service not falling under the services listed in 2.1.1 will require a Work Order contract. 2.2. The Local Government may request the State to perform Technical Services in an informal manner, such as by the use of email, a purchase order, or by delivering materials to a State lab and requesting testing. A request may be made via telephone, but will not be considered accepted unless acknowledged in writing by the State. 2.3. The State will promptly inform the Local Government if the State will be unable to perform the requested Technical Services. Otherwise, the State will perform the Technical Services in accordance with the State’s normal processes and practices, including scheduling practices taking into account the availability of State staff and equipment. 2.4. Payment Basis. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties prior to performance of the services, the State will charge the Local Government the State’s then-current rate for performing the Technical Services. The then-current rate may include the State’s normal and customary labor additives. The State will invoice the Local Government upon completion of the services, or at regular intervals not more than once monthly as agreed upon by the parties. The invoice will provide a summary of the Technical Services provided by the State during the invoice period. 3. Services Requiring A Work Order Contract 3.1. Work Order Contracts: A party may request the other party to perform any of the following services under individual work order contracts.
