All equipment purchases by the CONTRACTOR exceeding five-thousand dollars ($5,000.00) must be procured through a competitive process in compliance with Sourcewise’s bidding procedures unless services or materials can be obtained only from a single source. Any procurement exceeding ten- thousand dollars ($10,000.00) must also comply with the requirements of Office of Management and Budget Circular Uniform Guidance. b. Unless CONTRACTOR uses the COUNTY’s designated vendor, prior to making any equipment purchase that has a value of five-thousand dollars Page 6 of 9 First Amendment to the Contract between the County of Santa Clara and the City of Campbell Exhibit B-1: Program Plan & Requirements ($5,000.00) or more, CONTRACTOR will submit to COUNTY evidence that it has received a minimum of three (3) bids for such subcontract and justification for selection of the successful bidder or submit documentation to support the use of the sole supplier. Record shall be maintained by CONTRACTOR showing the parties solicited and the bids submitted. 18. OVERTIME WORK Overtime work expenditures that are incurred by the CONTRACTOR will not be paid by reducing services or meals under this contract. 19. RESTRICTION OF DISCLOSURES Any reports, analysis, studies, drawings, information or data generated as a result of this contract are to be provided to COUNTY prior to public dissemination. 20. MEAL VERIFICATION AND ERROR RATES CONTRACTOR must create and provide accurate electronic and paper documentation for the total number of meals provided and invoiced each month. Paper documentation of the number of monthly meals provided includes both monthly reports, New Client Logs, Guest and Staff meal logs, and daily sign-in sheet for the meals distributed. Monthly reports are submitted to the COUNTY per section 11(d) above. Sign-in sheets are described in the Senior Nutrition Program policies and procedures manual and must be submitted to COUNTY monthly. Sign-in sheets and New Client Logs are verification of the number of meals included on the monthly reports and the total number of signatures and reported meals must match. COUNTY will not reimburse for meals reported on the monthly report for which there is no signature on a sign-in sheet or signatures on the new client log. Electronic documentation is described in section 11(a) above and includes electronic meal data collected through the use of a scanning device or entry into a COUNTY- provided system. Electronic data report may be accepted by COUNTY as back-up documentation for the monthly report in lieu of a sign-in sheet. COUNTY will not reimburse for meals reported on the monthly report for which there is no electronic documentation unless otherwise verified in a manner acceptable to COUNTY, such as with a new client log. Electronic data also must be reconcilable to Sourcewise’s AssureCare database. If electronic documentation is not reconcilable to Sourcewise’s AssureCare database an error rate is created. If CONTRACTOR’s electronic data exceeds an error rate of 5%, COUNTY may withhold a percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice equivalent to the percentage of the error rate exceeding the 5% threshold. For example, if CONTRACTOR has an error rate of 23%, COUNTY may withhold 18% (23% - 5%) of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for that month. However, if Sourcewise reimburses COUNTY for the meals that create this error rate, then the County will not withhold any percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for the error rate but still may withhold payment for the other documentation issues listed in this section. 21.

CONTRACTOR must establish a written grievance process for reviewing and attempting to resolve complaints of older individuals receiving services funded Page 7 of 9 First Amendment to the Contract between the County of Santa Clara and the City of Campbell Exhibit B-1: Program Plan & Requirements by this Contract which complies with Sourcewise’s requirements and the Older Americans Act, Section 315(b)(4).
