Body
The City of Madison has purchased fire apparatus from Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. for several years.

Price changes due to State, Federal or industry mandates will be additional charges to the price of new vehicles that have already been adjusted for the PPI index change. Any apparatus of a different type that is contracted will establish the base unit price for additional future orders. Any product obsolesce or major product changes by the City will result in an analysis of the requested changes and the submission of change orders to the City for approval.

The term of this agreement will start on January 1, 2015 and expire on December 31, 2020. The agreement can be terminated at any time by either the City or Pierce Manufacturing, Inc.
