13-DISD Specification Scope of Work Formal Deviation Request Form.xlsx

This is a Specification Scope of Work Formal Deviation Request Form for Dallas Independent School District (DISD) related to a fire suppression system inspection, repair, and maintenance procurement. The document provides a template for vendors to formally request deviations from the specifications or scope of work outlined in the Request for Proposal. The form requires vendors to identify the specific specification or scope area subject to deviation, provide detailed reasoning for the requested deviation, describe the recommended change, and document the impact on various project elements including form, functionality, lead time, and cost. All variation requests require written approval and acceptance before implementation.

The form emphasizes that deviations must be submitted through formal channels and explicitly states that General and Administrative (G&A) variation requests are subject to approval requirements. This document serves as a control mechanism for Dallas ISD to evaluate and manage proposed changes to the procurement requirements for district-wide fire suppression system services across cafeterias and Career and Technical Education (CTE) sites. The underlying contract opportunity is structured as a one-year initial term with two optional one-year extensions, not to exceed three years total, with either party required to provide ninety days' written notice if declining renewal.
