general conditions of purchase

1. Insurance, concession, classification and minimum wage

By signing the transport order, you confirm that the vehicles used by the contractor have sufficient general liability insurance cover against personal injury and property damage. In addition, the buses are insured in accordance with the type of use and have the necessary requirements for accessing all waypoints (e.g. environmental badges) as well as the corresponding licences. The contractor undertakes to pay its employees the statutory minimum wage in accordance with § 1 MiLoG consistently and on time.

2. Use of third party companies

The order shall be carried out with the company’s own vehicles. Subcontracting to third-party companies or the use of third-party buses requires the prior consultation and approval of AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH.

Any additional costs incurred (e.g. parking charges, longer bus provision or additional kilometres) shall be borne by the customer and shall generally be invoiced directly on site.

This agreement is binding on the contractor for 24 months after legally effective recognition and expires in the event of non-renewal.

The contractor shall allow AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH to determine by means of supplier audits (second party) whether its quality assurance measures or company processes meet the requirements of AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH and its customers. After prior notification, a supplier audit can be carried out as a system, process or product/service audit. For this purpose, the contractor shall grant AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH access to the relevant operating sites, test centres, warehouses and adjacent areas during normal business hours, as well as inspection of the quality-relevant documents of the service performed for AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH. The employees of AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH are obliged to maintain confidentiality about the knowledge gained. AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik GmbH shall inform the contractor of the result of these audits in writing.
