Does the language for a goods and services contract in the Local Finance Notice 2004-24 need to be included on all purchase orders?
Yes. All of the new language for goods and services must be included on or made part of purchase orders. It is to ensure vendors are aware of their own responsibilities, particularly with regard to subcontractors. If a contracting agency is in a position where it has to reprint purchase orders, it is acceptable to attach a document or insert to the purchase order with the new language. However, if a contracting agency uses a separate contract that includes the new language, it would not be necessary (though useful) for the language to be part of a purchase order cutting a contract.
