When an agency receives an invoice or contract notification that includes t= ariff-related price increases, assessments, or surcharges, the agency must = scan the associated documents and submit them to Procurement Services via e= mail at Tariffs.OSPS@maine.gov<mailto:Tariffs.OSPS@maine.gov> prior to issu= ing payment or amending an existing contract. The data will be entered into= a Tariff Tracker to monitor vendor price increases and assessments against= evolving federal tariff policy. Where amounts are separately identified on invoices, agencies should code = =93Tariff=94 charges to object code 4956. OSPS will consider the following when reviewing any proposed contractual pr= icelist updates or amendments: * Vendor evidence/explanation of tariff impact on company letterhead. * Amendments limited to one-year under tariff-related increases. * Additional Terms & Conditions clause to require a return to original= pricing or a proportional reduction of price should the tariff be repealed= or reduced. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please email Tarif= fs.OSPS@maine.gov<mailto:Tariffs.OSPS@maine.gov>. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
