FORTS RapidReserve™ Priority Access Agreement
This RapidReserve™ Priority Access Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into between the participating organization or individual (“Member”) and FORTS USA / FORTS Logistics (“FORTS Logistics”) for participation in the FORTS RapidReserve™ Program (“Program”).
Participation in the Program requires payment of a recurring monthly membership fee of Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00) (“Membership Fee”). The Membership Fee is a non-refundable priority access and reservation fee and does not constitute payment for deployment services, transportation, staffing, setup, operational execution, or emergency response services.
In consideration of the Membership Fee, Members may receive certain Program benefits including, but not limited to:
Priority access to available FORTS® deployable infrastructure units
Discounted deployment pricing compared to non-members
Protection from surge pricing through price-lock privileges
Access to a 24/7 emergency dispatch coordination hotline
Accrual of Membership Fee credits applicable toward eligible deployments for up to five (5) years while membership remains active and in good standing
Available deployable assets may include, but are not limited to:
FORTS® M.A.S.H. Units
Mobile Medical Clinics
Command & Control Units
Oxygen Support Trailer/Container Systems
Standard 38 and Tandem Configurations
Additional deployable infrastructure assets as available
Participation in the Program does not guarantee immediate deployment, uninterrupted availability, reserved inventory, or exclusive access to units. Deployment availability is subject to existing operational commitments, geographic conditions, transportation logistics, staffing availability, government restrictions, emergency demand, and overall fleet capacity at the time of request.
In the event of a natural disaster, national emergency, mass casualty event, widespread infrastructure failure, or other surge event resulting in full utilization of available units, FORTS Logistics will use commercially reasonable efforts to deploy comparable units if available, or otherwise deploy units as soon as operationally feasible once assets become available.
FORTS Logistics shall not be liable for delays, service interruptions, deployment limitations, or inability to deploy caused by capacity constraints, force majeure events, or circumstances beyond its reasonable control. Force majeure events include, but are not limited to, acts of God, hurricanes, floods, fires, pandemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor shortages, transportation interruptions, fuel shortages, cyber incidents, supply chain disruptions, governmental actions, or failures of third-party vendors or carriers.
All deployments, mobilizations, transportation, staffing, setup, operational support, and related emergency services are billed separately under then-current deployment pricing and may require execution of a separate deployment authorization, service agreement, or statement of work. Deposits, retainers, or prepayment may be required prior to deployment depending on the nature and scale of the emergency response request.
Membership Fee credits accrued under the Program may only be applied toward eligible deployment invoices while membership remains active and in good standing. Unused credits expire five (5) years from the date accrued, are non-transferable, non-refundable, and have no cash value.
FORTS Logistics makes no warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, uninterrupted service availability, or guaranteed deployment capability during catastrophic or large-scale emergency events.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, FORTS Logistics’ total liability arising under this Agreement or participation in the Program shall not exceed the total Membership Fees paid by Member during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Member may cancel participation in the Program at any time upon written notice. Membership Fees are non-refundable and no partial month refunds shall be issued. FORTS Logistics reserves the right to suspend or terminate participation for non-payment, misuse of the Program, fraudulent activity, abuse of emergency dispatch resources, or violation of these Terms and Conditions.
FORTS Logistics reserves the right to modify, amend, or update this Agreement or Program benefits upon reasonable notice to Members.
All trademarks, logos, deployment systems, methodologies, operational procedures, designs, proprietary technology, and related intellectual property associated with the Program remain the exclusive property of FORTS Logistics and may not be copied, reproduced, distributed, or used without prior written consent.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in which FORTS Logistics is headquartered, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under this Agreement shall be exclusively resolved in the state or federal courts located within the jurisdiction of FORTS Logistics’ principal headquarters.
This Agreement constitutes the full and complete understanding between the parties regarding participation in the FORTS RapidReserve™ Program and supersedes all prior discussions, representations, or understandings related thereto.
Participation in the Program is not an insurance policy, emergency guarantee contract, or contract of indemnity, and is intended solely to provide participating Members with enhanced priority access and preferred pricing opportunities for available deployable infrastructure assets.
