(SWING) ATTACHMENT C PRICING FOR OFFER CONSIDERATION Discounts for Library and Staff Orders Offerors shall return a completed copy of this attachment with their proposals. If pricing differs by type of library (public academic, school, special, or state agency), the contractor shall submit a separate copy of this attachment and specify the type of library for which pricing is proposed. SWING desires an attractive, predictable pricing structure and, at the same time, a high level of order fulfillment. Accordingly, SWING seeks to select one or more primary contractors as well as one or more secondary contractors. All discounts quoted will be applied to the publishers' lowest list price in effect at the time of shipment and exclude freight-pass-through pricing. All discounts will apply to all shipments, including backorders, for each order placed by the library. Participating libraries reserve the right to request supporting documentation (including copies of the publishers' invoices) on discount or service charge decisions of the contractor at any time during the contract period.
