      4. he expression “Person” includes each individual, body politic,  corporation, association (incorporated or unincorporated), statutory authority or any other authority or identified as the Customer, and where the Customer comprises more than one Person, these terms and conditions bind them jointly and severally.
  2. Orders and Technical Specifications
    1. Once an order has been accepted by AHIC, it cannot be cancelled by the Customer
    2. The supply of Goods or Services is subject to availability. AHIC reserves the right to suspend or discontinue the supply of Goods or Services to the Customer at any time for any reason without liability or penalty. If AHIC is unable to supply all of the Customer’s order, these terms and conditions continue to apply to any part of the order supplied.
    3. It is the Customer’s obligation to provide full and complete technical specifications along with their purchase order for the Goods to be placed into production. Should the Customer fail to provide sufficient technical specifications within 15 days of the date of the Customer’s purchase order, AHIC reserves the right to revise the price. If the Customer fails to provide sufficient technical specifications within 60 days of the date of the Customer’s purchase order, AHIC reserves the right to cancel the order without liability or penalty.
  3. Pricing
    1. Where a written quotation has been given by AHIC, the selling price is the price specified in the quotation. In any other case, the price for Goods supplied will be AHIC’s list price ruling at the date of shipping and the charge for Services supplied will be at AHIC’s prevailing rates at the time of supply. Prices are subject to change on notice prior to AHIC’s written acceptance of the Customer’s purchase order. If the Customer pays a Sales Invoice by credit card, the Customer agrees to pay a surcharge equal to 1.1% of the GST exclusive price for the Goods and Services. The 1.1% surcharge is inclusive of GST
    2. In cases where AHIC intends to progress bill the Customer for the supply of goods or services, AHIC will do so on a percentage (%) of completion of works basis and specify the billing
      schedule in its written quotation. A separate Sales Invoice will be raised for each progress payment in accordance with the billing schedule.
    3. All prices, charges and surcharges are expressed exclusive of any applicable goods and services tax or value added tax, freight or delivery charges, and customs duty, which amounts shall be added to and payable at the same time as the price, charge or surcharge is to be paid by the Customer in respect of the Goods and Services, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
    4. AHIC will not be bound by any condition attaching to the Customer’s purchase order or acceptance of a sale unless AHIC in writing expressly accepts such conditions
    5. A quotation is not to be construed as an obligation to sell but merely an invitation to treat and no contractual relationship will arise until AHIC has accepted in writing the Customer’s purchase order.
  4. Payment
    1. The Customer must make immediate payment upon receipt of the Sales Invoice. If the Customer has an approved credit account with AHIC, the Customer must pay for the Goods and Services supplied within 30 days from the date of the relevant Sales Invoice unless otherwise agreed in writing. Time is of the essence in respect of the Customer’s obligation to make payment for Goods or Services supplied by AHIC to the Customer.
    2. If any part of a Sales Invoice is in dispute, the balance will remain payable and must be paid when due. The Customer has no right to set-off any claim against AHIC from moneys owing to AHIC.
  5. Delivery
    1. For Goods collected by the Customer from AHIC or its agents, risk in the Goods passes to the Customer at the time of collection
    2. If requested by the Customer and agreed by AHIC, AHIC will deliver the Goods to an address specified by the Customer. In such cases:
      1. the Customer will pay all charges associated with the delivery of the Goods;
      2. the Customer, or a representative of the Customer must be present at the agreed place and time for delivery and must sign the delivery docket as acknowledgement that the Goods and quantities described on the delivery docket have been delivered and comply with the Customer’s Purchase Order
      3. if the Customer or a representative of the Customer is not present, AHIC may unload the Goods at the agreed place for delivery if possible (additional charges may apply), in which case, AHIC is no longer responsible in any way for the Goods;
      4. AHIC’s responsibility for delivery ceases at the delivery address at which point risk in the Goods will pass to the Customer. The Customer is responsible for
        1. providing safe and adequate access to and from the delivery address;
        2. the loading or unloading of Goods, and will pay for all damage and injury to any person and to any public or private property which may result from the Customer’s breach of this clause 5.a(IV)
    3. If the Customer nominates their own vessel or vehicle to deliver the Goods to the Customer then risk will pass when the Goods are loaded onto the Customer’s nominated vessel or vehicle and the Customer shall be responsible for arranging the insurance of the Goods. Where the Customer has nominated its own vessel or vehicle for delivery AHIC will not be liable to the Customer for any loss in the event of any failure in delivery or to arrange insurance.
    4. AHIC reserves the right to deliver Goods in installments and all such installments, where separately invoiced, must be paid for without regard to the delivery of subsequent installments. A part delivery of an order will not invalidate the balance of the order.
    5. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that deliver dates and times are estimates only and time is not of the essence in relation to delivery. While AHIC will use all reasonable endeavors to meet agreed delivery dates, AHIC shall not be liable to the Customer for delays due to circumstances outside AHIC’s reasonable control or for any indirect or consequential loss or damage whatsoever should AHIC be delayed or prevented from delivering Goods, supplying Services, or otherwise performing any of its contractual obligations.
    6. Subject to clause 5.5, delivery dates must not be varied once they have been agreed, without AHIC’s prior written approval. Should AHIC agree to postpone delivery, the Goods in question will be stored at the Customer’s risk and AHIC reserves the right to obtain payment from the Customer as though the Goods in question had been delivered and to impose a weekly storage charge. Where delivery is postponed for more than 3 months, AHIC may increase any fixed contract prices to reflect AHIC’s then current list price.
    7. AHIC may at its discretion sell any Goods still in its possession 3 months after the mutually agreed deferred delivery date and seek damages for any loss incurred by AHIC as a result of the deferment in the delivery date
  6. Retention of Title
    1. Legal and equitable ownership in the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until AHIC receives full payment for the Goods from the Customer.
    2. Where the Goods are resold by the Customer to a third party, the Customer must keep an amount from the proceeds of sale which is equal to the moneys owed to AHIC in a separate identifiable account as the beneficial property of AHIC and must immediately pay such amount to AHIC when due or upon request by AHIC.
    3. This clause 6 applies notwithstanding any arrangement under which AHIC provides credit to the Customer and to the extent that there is any inconsistency between this clause 6 and such credit arrangement, this clause 6 prevails.
    4. The Customer acknowledges that this clause 6 constitutes a Security Agreement in favour of AHIC in all Goods supplied by AHIC to the Customer and which have not become the property of the Customer absolutely. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to such Goods:
      1. AHIC may, without notice to the Customer, seek registration of its Security Interest pursuant to the PPSA as a Purchase Money Security Interest;
      2. pursuant to section 275(6) of the PPSA, the Customer agrees that AHIC is not required to disclose to an interested person information regarding AHIC’s Security Interest unless required to do so pursuant to the PPSA or at law;
      3. the Customer will, upon the request of AHIC, promptly sign any documents, provide any further information and do anything else reasonably required by AHIC to enable perfection of AHIC’s Security Interest or registration of a
        Financing Statement or Financing Change Statement under the PPSA;
      4. the Customer will not register a Financing Statement or Financing Change Statement or make a demand to alter the Financing Statement pursuant to section 178 of the PPSA in respect of the Goods without the prior written consent of AHIC;
      5. the Customer will not grant any other Security Interest or any lien over Goods;
      6. the Customer will give AHIC not less than 14 days’ written notice of any proposed change in their name or contact details; and
      7. placement of a purchase order by Customer shall constitute acceptance of this clause 6 for the purposes of the Act.
    5. Capitalised terms used in clause 6.4 have the meanings given to those terms in the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (PPSA).
    6. To the extent permitted by law, the Customer waives its rights to receive any notices required under sections 95,118, 121(4), 130, 132, 135 and 157 of the PPSA.
