Terms & Conditions - Purchase Orders
Vendor agrees that the following Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) are incorporated into and govern all purchase orders (the “Purchase Order”).
PURCHASE ORDER NUMBERS – Purchase Order numbers must appear on all shipping documents, invoices, quality certifications, packaging sheets, etc.
PRICE, TAXES AND QUANTITY – Vendor shall furnish the goods and/or services called for by the Purchase Order in accordance with the prices and delivery dates stated in the Purchase Order. If prices and/or delivery dates are omitted, Vendor shall offer its lowest prices and best delivery method, both of which shall be subject to written acceptance by Company. Unless otherwise expressly set forth in the Purchase Order or required by applicable law, all prices include all applicable taxes and duties, except U.S. sales taxes which the Company will remit directly to the appropriate state,. Vendor warrants that the prices charged for the goods and/or services covered by this Purchase Order shall be as low as the lowest prices charged by the Vendor to any other customers purchasing similar goods and/or services in the same or smaller quantities and under like circumstances.
PAYMENT & INVOICING – Company (as defined below) shall pay Vendor’s invoices (i) within sixty (60) days, of receipt of an accurate invoice unless Company has agreed to other payment terms in writing,; and (ii) upon completion of each item of services described in the Purchase Order or delivery of goods specified on the Purchase Order. Vendor shall set forth on each invoice the following: (a) Purchase Order number; (b) number of cartons in shipment; (c) Vendor’s invoice number; (d) Vendor store number; (e) taxes, if applicable; and (f) make, model number, serial number and type of product or service. The label on each carton of product will reference this Purchase Order number. After Company has approved Vendor’s invoice, Company shall pay Vendor those approved amounts via check, wire-transfer, procurement card (if applicable), or corporate card (if applicable). Until Company receives Vendor’s invoice, no prompt payment time limits shall commence. In no event shall Company be liable to Vendor for interest or other late payment charge. Company shall not be liable for any taxes related to the Purchase Order other than any applicable sales and use taxes.
DELIVERY - Time is of the essence with respect to delivery of products or services listed in the Purchase Order. Vendor must immediately advise Company if any product or service cannot be shipped as ordered by the stated date. Shipments or performance not made on the date or dates specified in the Purchase Order may be cancelled or rejected by Company.
Partial Shipment: At Company’s option, in the event of shipment of less than all products or services ordered, Company may either accept shipment and pay only for the products or services received, pro rata based on the unit price of the item ordered, or reject the entire shipment.
Late Shipment: Company reserves the right to cancel the Purchase Order or any portion thereof if shipment is not made when and as specified and charge Vendor for any loss sustained as a result of such cancellation, including, but not limited to, shipping charges. Further, Company may reject the late delivery without cancellation of the Purchase Order as to other subsequent required shipments. Each shipment required under the Purchase Order is to be considered separately, and Company’s right to reject a late delivery shall not be affected by acceptance of other late deliveries by Vendor. All such cancelled shipments shall be returned to Vendor at Vendor’s expense. Acceptance by Company of a late delivery of either the whole or part of the goods under the Purchase Order shall not constitute a waiver of Company’s claim for any damages resulting from the late delivery.
Early Shipment: Products shipped prior to the date specified, at Company’s option, may be subject to anticipation and warehouse charges, payable by Vendor, or may be returned to Vendor, at Vendor’s expense, to be held until proper shipping date.
CURE – In the event that the goods delivered under this Purchase Order are less than the amount to be delivered or do not conform to specifications, or in the event Company does not accept the material delivered under this Purchase Order or revokes its acceptance within 30 days of delivery, or if the services purchased under this Purchase Order are not provided in conformance with the terms herein, Vendor shall, upon notice from Company, take all steps necessary to timely cure any deficiency, including without limitation shipping additional material or providing both transportation of any nonconforming material from Vendor’s designated destination and timely transportation of conforming replacement goods to Company’s designated destination.
WAIVER - If Company provides Vendor with an opportunity to cure its performance, such shall not be construed as a waiver of any or all of the terms and conditions of this Purchase Order or any other rights or remedies of Company provided by law. Any delay, lack of enforcement, or waiver by Company of any default or other breach of this Purchase Order shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default or other breach, and such shall not preclude Company from enforcing any and all of the terms and conditions of this Purchase Order.
SHIPMENT - Shipment shall be made in accordance with the specific instructions from Company set forth in the Purchase Order or as per oral or written instructions provided by the Company. In the absence of specific shipping instructions, Vendor will request such instructions form the Company. If instructions are not provided upon request, shipment shall be routed via the most economical mode of commercially reasonable transportation available. Goods will be classified so that the lowest commodity rate may be obtained. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Company, the prices set forth in the Purchase Order include all charges for packing, crating and storage, and Vendor is obligated to suitably pack, mark and ship all goods to prevent damage and to conform to the requirements of common carriers. If the Vendor is responsible for transportation and delivery, Company shall have the right to return all freight damaged merchandise to Vendor and to receive full credit therefore. All vendors are subject to the Company’s Expense Offset Table, which is posted and updated from time to time on its website at www.westpointhome.com. Such table does not set forth an exclusive remedy available to the Company, but rather provides for remedies to the Company in addition to all other remedies available in law or equity.
INSPECTION AND TESTING - All products and services shall be subject to inspection and approval by Company after delivery. Company reserves the right to reject any products or services that it deems non-conforming, defective, stale, unsafe, unfit or in any other way unsuitable for its purposes. Products not conforming to the Purchase Order shall be held at Vendor’s risk and returned to Vendor, freight collect, and Vendor shall be liable for transportation and handling costs. Company reserves the right to require replacement of rejected products or services as well as payment of damages, at Vendor’s expense. Rejected products or services in quantities in excess of the required order will be returned at Vendor’s expense.
ACCEPTANCE - Company’s acceptance is limited to the terms and conditions herein contained. Any additional or different terms heretofore or hereafter proposed by Vendor in any quotation, acknowledgement, sales offer, or otherwise are rejected. Acceptance may be evidenced by Vendor’s written notice of acceptance or by commencement of performance. If the latter, Company shall not be bound until it receives the goods or services. Acceptance of the goods or services shall not constitute Company’s acceptance of Vendor’s terms and conditions. No charges beyond the price specified in the Purchase Order shall be allowed except with the written consent of Company. Acceptance of the goods or services shall not relieve Vendor from any of its obligations and warranties hereunder. In no event shall payment be deemed to constitute acceptance.
CHANGES - Company reserves the right to a) at any time prior to the Vendor beginning the manufacturing process of the goods (for unique goods specifically manufactured for the Company) and b) at any time prior to the shipment of goods (for all other non-unique goods) make changes as to: (i) specifications of any goods; (ii) methods of shipment or packaging; (iii) place of delivery; (iv) schedule of delivery; (v) reduction, increase or cancellation of the quantities ordered. If any such changes cause an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for performance of a Purchase Order, an equitable adjustment may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be made in the contract price and/or the delivery schedule. Any claim by Vendor for adjustment under this clause shall be deemed waived unless asserted in writing within ten (10) days from receipt by Vendor of the change. If the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result of such change is paid for by Company, Company shall prescribe the manner of disposition of such property.
CANCELLATIONCompany may, after giving written notice to Vendor, cancel the Purchase Order prior to delivery. Upon a default by Vendor of any its obligations hereunder, Company may, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, cancel the Purchase Order and seek damages from Vendor.
