In every instance, Supplier will pay not less than the UC Fair Wage (defined as $13 per hour as of 10/1/15, $14 per hour as of 10/1/16, and $15 per hour as of 10/1/17) for Services being performed at a UC Location (defined as any location owned or leased by UC).
The California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) has ascertained the general prevailing per diem wage rates in the locality in which the Services are to be provided for each craft, classification, or type of worker required to provide the Services. A copy o f the general prevailing per diem wage rates will be on file at each UC Location’s procurement office, and will be made available to any interested party upon request. Supplier will post at any job site:
A. Notice of the general prevailing per diem wage rates, and B. Any other notices required by DIR rule or regulation.
By this reference, such notices are made part of the Agreement. Supplier will pay not less than the prevailing wage rates, as specified in the schedule and any amendments thereto, to all workers employed by Supplier in providing the Services. Supplier will cause all subcontracts to include the provision that all sub-suppliers will pay not less than the prevailing rates to all workers employed by such sub- suppliers in providing the Services. The Services are subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. Supplier will forfeit, as a penalty, not more than $200 for each calendar day or portion thereof for each worker that is paid less than the prevaili ng rates as determined by the DIR for the work or craft in which the worker is employed for any portion of the Services provided by Supplier or any sub-supplier. The amount of this penalty will be determined pursuant to applicable law. Such forfeiture amounts may be deducted from the amounts due under the Agreement . If there are insufficient funds remaining in the amounts due under the Agreement, Supplier will be liable for any outstanding amount remaining due. Supplier will also pay to any worker who was paid less than the preva iling wage rate for the work or craft for which the worker was employed for any portion of the Services, for each day, or portion thereof, fo r which the worker was paid less than the specified prevailing per diem wage rate, an amount equal to the difference between the specified prevailing per diem wage rate and the amount which was paid to the worker. Review of any civil wage and penalty assessment will be made pursuant to California Labor Code section 1742.

D. National Contract for UC Contracts
The University of California, as the Principal Procurement Agency, defined in Exhibit A, has partnered with OMNIA Partners to make the resultant contract (also known as the “Master Agreement” in materials distributed by OMNIA Partners) from this solicitation available to other public agencies nationally, including state and local governmental entities, public and private primary, secondary and higher education entities, non-profit entities, and agencies for the public benefit (“Public Agencies”), through OMNIA Partners’ cooperative purchasing program. The UC is acting as the contracting agency for any other Public Agency that elects to utilize the resulting Master Agreement. Use of the Master Agreement by any Public Agency is preceded by their registration with OMNIA Partners (a “Participating Public Agency”). Exhibits A through H contain additional information about OMNIA Partners and the cooperative purchasing agreement.
OMNIA Partners is the largest and most experienced purchasing organization for public and private sector procurement. Through the economies of scale created by OMNIA Partners public sector subsidiaries, National IPA and U.S. Communities, our participants now have access to more competitively solicited and publicly awarded
6 cooperative agreements. The lead agency contracting process continues to be the foundation on which we are founded. OMNIA Partners is proud to offer more value and resources to state and local government, higher education, K-12 education and non-profits.
OMNIA Partners provides shared services and supply chain optimization to government, education and the private sector. As a channel partner with Vizient (formally, Novation), OMNIA Partners leverages over $100 billion in annual supply spend to command the best prices for products and services. With corporate, pricing and sales commitments from the Contractor, OMNIA Partners provides marketing and administrative support for the Contractor that directly promotes the Contractor’s products and services to Participating Public Agencies though multiple channels, each designed to promote specific products and services to Public Agencies on a national basis. Public Agencies benefit from pricing based on aggregate spend and the convenience of a contract that has already been advertised and publicly competed. The Contractor benefits from a contract that allows Participating Public Agencies to directly purchase goods and services without the Contractor’s need to respond to additional competitive solicitations. As such, the Contractor must be able to accommodate a nationwide demand for services and to fulfill obligations as a nationwide Contractor and respond to the OMNIA Partners documents Exhibit A, B, F, and G. The UC, as the Principal Procurement Agency, has partnered with the OMNIA Partners (herein OMNIA) to make the resultant contract from this solicitation available to qualified Participating Public Agencies nationwide. OMNIA provides marketing and administrative support for the Supplier (herein also referred to as Contractor or Consultant) that directly promotes the Supplier’s products and services to Participating Public Agencies through multiple channels, each designed to promote specific products and services to public agencies on a national basis. As such, the Supplier must be able to accommodate a nationwide demand for services and to fulfill obligations as a nationwide Supplier as stated in Exhibit A.
Estimated Volume
The UC anticipates spending approximately $8 million annually on as needed and f ull-service elevator, escalator, chairlift and platform lift, maintenance program . The overall dollar volume of supplies purchased under the contract is estimated t o be $80 million annually. While no minimum volume is guaranteed, the estimated annual volume is projected based on the current annual volumes among the UC, other government agencies that intend to utilize the resulting contract to be made available to them through OMNIA Partners, and volume growth into other agencies through a coordinated marketing approach between the Contractor and OMNIA Partners.
As outlined in Exhibit A, the awarded supplier(s) are required to pay an administrative fee.
