Olympian Water Testing LLC - Proposal Authorization & Confidential Use Agreement
By requesting a proposal, estimate, scope outline, pricing schedule, or project consultation (“Proposal”), the individual submitting the request (“Requestor”) acknowledges and agrees, individually and on behalf of any employer, company, organization, school, municipality, association, board, ownership group, management entity, consultant, agent, or other party for whom the Proposal is being requested (collectively, “Represented Parties”), to the following terms with Olympian Water Testing LLC (“Olympian”).
Proposals are proprietary and confidential business documents containing non-public pricing structures, testing panels, parameter configurations, workflow methodologies, operational processes, strategic business information, and other trade secrets. All Proposals remain the exclusive intellectual property of Olympian.
Proposals are provided solely for the purpose of evaluating potential engagement of Olympian for services. Proposals are not issued for competitive bidding, vendor comparison, reverse engineering, panel replication, parameter extraction, scope harvesting, pricing analysis, or distribution to any third party. The Proposal may not be copied, forwarded, shared, reproduced, summarized, disclosed, or used as a pricing instrument with other contractors, laboratories, consultants, municipalities, regulatory agencies, or vendors.
Requestor affirms that they are authorized to request the Proposal and to bind the Represented Parties to these terms. Requestor further affirms that both Requestor and Represented Parties shall maintain strict confidentiality of the Proposal and shall take reasonable steps to safeguard it from internal or external disclosure, including limiting access solely to decision-makers directly evaluating potential engagement of Olympian. Requestor accepts responsibility for any internal misuse, redistribution, or unauthorized access by employees, supervisors, colleagues, consultants, or affiliated parties.
Requestor and Represented Parties agree that any unauthorized sharing, distribution, internal misuse, competitive use, disclosure, or failure to safeguard the Proposal shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. In the event of such breach, Olympian shall be entitled to recover damages including, but not limited to, document preparation costs, administrative time, investigative costs, reasonable attorney’s fees, and any losses associated with disclosure of confidential business information, trade secrets, pricing structures, panel configurations, proprietary methodologies, and competitive advantage, with such damages to be determined based on the extent of the misuse and resulting harm.
Requestor further represents that the Proposal is being requested in good faith for potential engagement of services and not for purposes of competitive intelligence gathering, trade secret extraction, regulatory entrapment, media investigation, corporate espionage, or any improper purpose.
Issuance of a Proposal does not constitute a binding service agreement and does not obligate Olympian to perform services unless and until formally accepted and scheduled.
This Agreement shall be governed by applicable law and any dispute arising from Proposal misuse shall be brought in the appropriate courts of competent jurisdiction.
By submitting a Proposal request, Requestor affirms that they have read, understood, and agree to these Proposal Authorization & Confidential Use Terms on behalf of themselves and all Represented Parties.
