In this Agreement, Rio Grande Fence Co. of Tennessee will be referred to as "RGF." [Client.Company] will be referred to as "Customer."
PRICING IS VALID FOR (7) DAYS.
If the Agreement is signed by Customer after the stated (7) day period has expired, RGF has the authority to cancel the Agreement.
NEW CUSTOMER TERMS: New Customers must complete New Customer information form online prior to work beginning; new.rgfence.com
No performance will occur until New Customer form is completed in full.
BILLING PAYMENT TERMS: If prepayment of any kind is required in the Billing Payment Terms area by Customer, the required payment must be made within fifteen (15) days. A signed and executed Agreement is considered void if required prepayment is not made within the allocated amount of time. No performance will occur under voided Agreement status.
LATE PAYMENTS: A finance charge of 1.5% per month, which is an annual percentage rate of 18%, shall be applied to Customer account that is not paid within 30 days after completion of any work invoiced.
PAST DUE ACCOUNTS: If Customer's account has a balance over 90 days of aging, RGF reserves the right not to start any new work for Customer until all (90) plus day invoices are paid.
NON-PAYMENT: All materials remain the property of RGF until all invoices pertaining to this job are paid in full. Right of access and removal is granted to RGF in the event of non-payment under the terms of this Agreement. Customer agrees to pay all interest and any costs incurred in the collection of this debt, including but not limited to reasonable Attorney's fees.
RESCHEDULING, DELAY DAMAGES: If Customer desires to reschedule, suspend, or in any way delay work on a scheduled project under Agreement, Customer must provide advanced notice via email to the RGF Contact by 2:00 PM CST the business day before any RGF service is scheduled to occur. Failure to do so will cause RGF to incur unnecessary costs. As such, should Customer fail to provide such notice, Customer shall be responsible to RGF for any such costs and will additionally pay to RGF, as invoiced, a charge of $408.00 for each occurrence of delay of scheduled work. For example, if Customer and RGF have scheduled an 8:00 Monday morning service, and Customer calls RGF on that Monday at 7:00 AM to postpone or otherwise reschedule that day’s scheduled work, Customer will be charged $408 at the time of billing. This charge is not punitive but is rather an estimated total of costs RGF will actually incur due to Customer’s untimely or lack of advanced notice.
SCOPE OF WORK CHANGES: If Customer desires to make Scope of Work changes to layout, materials, and/or any other alterations on a scheduled project under Agreement, Customer must provide advanced notice via email to the RGF Contact by 2:00 PM CST the business day before any RGF service is scheduled to occur. RGF will make every effort to accommodate Customer-requested Scope of Work Changes on short notice, but cannot guarantee availability of materials, labor, and/or equipment to perform Scope of Work Changes work installation for an executed Agreement. If Scope of Work Changes can be accommodated, RGF personnel will document said changes and Customer will be billed and invoiced appropriately. If Scope of Work Changes can not be accommodated on short notice, this will cause RGF to incur unnecessary costs and delay installation. As such, Customer shall be responsible to RGF for any such costs and will additionally pay to RGF, as invoiced, a charge of $408.00 for each occurrence of Scope of Work Changes. For example, if Customer and RGF have scheduled an 8:00 Monday morning service, and Customer calls RGF on that Monday at 7:00 AM to make changes to the Scope of Work, Customer will be charged $408 at the time of billing. This charge is not punitive but is rather an estimated total of costs RGF will actually incur due to Customer’s untimely or lack of advanced notice. Additionally, any materials purchased by RGF for the project prior to Scope of Work Changes will be the responsibility of Customer. A final invoice will be generated for said materials along with any reasonable mobilization fees incurred.
CONTRACT CANCELLATION: If Customer signs RGF Agreement and elects to cancel the Agreement prior to work beginning, Customer must do so in writing via email to accounting@rgfence.com and the RGF Project Manager listed on the Agreement. Time is of the essence, so email is preferred. While not preferred, you may submit your cancellation prior to work commencing via UPS or FedEx with signature confirmation at Customer's expense. Any materials purchased by RGF for the project prior to cancellation will be the responsibility of Customer. A final invoice will be generated for said materials along with any reasonable mobilization fees incurred.
OUTRIGHT SALE OF MATERIALS WITHOUT INSTALLATION: If this specific scenario is stated in the Agreement, pricing includes materials only. RGF installation/removal is excluded. If the materials are stated as "used" in the Agreement, then a warranty is not included. Due to the nature of used materials, there is no implied or expressed warranty provided on the sale.
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE: Customer must notify RGF of any requirements for RGF utilization of Construction Management Software (including but not limited to, e.g., Procore, Autodesk BIM 360, Bluebeam, et. al.) to perform, administer, and/or complete project work, prior to Agreement pricing. RGF Agreement pricing issued without Customer notice of required RGF utilization of Construction Management Software is subject to change. If Agreement is executed prior to Customer notification of RGF required utilization of Construction Management Software, an additional line-item charge will occur at final invoicing.
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT/COMPLIANCE FEES: Customer must notify RGF of any requirements for RGF utilization of any property management/compliance fees (including but not limited to, e.g., Registry Monitoring Insurance Services, Inc., NetVendor,
OPSMerchants, Real Pages (formally Compliance Depot), et. al.) to perform, administer, and/or complete project work, prior to Agreement pricing. RGF Agreement pricing issued without Customer notice of required RGF utilization of a property management/compliance service is subject to change. If Agreement is executed prior to Customer notification of RGF required utilization of property management/compliance service, an additional line-item charge will occur at final invoicing.
PREVAILING WAGE PROJECTS: Pricing is based on standard projects that are not subject to any Prevailing Wage requirements. If Customer requires work to be performed utilizing Prevailing Wages, Customer is to inform RGF contact so RGF can provide a revised proposal that includes Prevailing Wages. If Customer fails to inform RGF of a Prevailing Wage requirement, RGF will bill Customer for any increased labor wages incurred and penalties assessed.
CERTIFIED PAYROLL: Certified Payroll is available for Customer upon request.
OCIP ENROLLMENT REQUESTS: If Customer requires OCIP Enrollment prior to commencement of RGF work on a job site, Customer must inform RGF in a reasonable amount of time in writing. Failure to communicate said need in a timely manner will delay our scope of work being performed.
GOVERNING LAW: This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Tennessee, U.S.A., without reference to any conflicts of law provisions. JURISDICTION: For any legal proceedings involving this Agreement, proceedings will be held in Nashville (Davidson County), Tennessee.

ACCESS TO WORK AREA: RGF requires Access to Work Area to perform work installation. Prior to RGF arrival to perform work, Customer shall provide a 6’ minimum clearance to and adjacent with work installation areas free of obstructions including, but not limited to, vegetation, trash, debris, and equipment. Failure to provide RGF with Access to Work Area will delay work performance and cause RGF to incur unnecessary costs to perform work installation; any labor, material, or equipment costs for RGF to create Access to Work Area will be invoiced to Customer at billing.
PROPERTY LINES: RGF will assist Customer, when possible, in determining where the fence is to be erected, but under no circumstance does RGF assume any responsibility concerning property lines or in any way guarantee their accuracy. If property pins cannot be located, it is recommended that Customer have the property surveyed.

However, RGF assumes no responsibility for unmarked sprinkler lines, or any other unmarked buried lines or objects.

Typically, vector-art files are saved as .EPS, .AI, or .PSD files. If you don't know what this means, please see your marketing department. If the manufacturer deems the Customer-supplied art is not valid for print, the manufacturer charges RGF a $150.00 art charge. The $150.00 art fee will be passed along as an additional line-item charge on Customer's invoice.

All other trips requested by Customer will result in an invoice from RGF for RGF's hourly crew rate of $408.00 per hour plus materials.

RENTAL EXTENSION BILLINGS: During the last week of any fence rental Agreement term, an RGF representative will contact
Customer's stated representative on the cover page of the Agreement and/or Customer's on-site project contact to inquire whether Customer wants RGF to pick-up the materials on the contractual end date or to purchase a rental period extension. If Customer verbally or electronically elects to purchase a rental extension, RGF will submit an invoice to Customer for the additional rental time agreed upon. As with the original rental period, a call for pick-up prior to the end of the new rental period will not result in a credit or discount.
RENTAL EXTENSION PRICING: If Customer elects to renew an existing rental agreement, the price on the invoice will be derived by taking the previous subtotal (plus or minus any changes since original installation) and dividing by the amount of months of the rental. RGF will subtract a standard renewal discount of $1.50 per linear foot. With this information, we will generate a new extension invoice to be sent to the billing address on the cover of the Agreement. At the end of the extension billing's time, RGF will contact Customer again as prescribed in this document. If a second (and all following) extension is purchased on the project site, the previously stated renewal discount will not apply again.
AUTOMATIC RENEWALS WITH NO CUSTOMER RESPONSE: During the last week of any fence rental Agreement term,
an RGF representative will contact Customer's stated representative on the cover page of the Agreement and/or Customer's on-site project contact to inquire whether Customer wants RGF to pick-up the materials on the contractual end date or to purchase a rental period extension. Our efforts to contact Customer are as follows; phone call to Customer's stated contact on the cover of this Agreement, email to Customer contact's email address listed on the cover of this Agreement, and lastly, a phone call to Customer's office to inquire whether Customer is in need of a pick-up or extension. If after (7) days past the rental agreement and the Customer has been non-responsive, we will generate a rental extension billing of (1) month. If the initial term is less than one month, we will match the initial term.
At the time of a rental pick-up, RGF will review all rental materials for quantity and condition quality. Customer is responsible for lost or damaged rental materials. Rental materials damaged beyond repair and/or missing are subject to be billed to Customer. Below is a schedule of values for rental materials.
