2-RFP-07-Deviations.xlsx

This is a deviation form for Request for Proposal 26-0207 issued by the City of Fort Worth, Texas, for traffic signal poles and arms to be procured on an "as needed" basis for the Transportation and Public Works Department. The form provides bidders with a structured mechanism to identify and document any deviations or exceptions from the terms and conditions specified in the City's draft Vendor Services Agreement or the RFP specifications. Bidders must reference the specific RFP section for each deviation and provide detailed explanations along with proposed alternative language where applicable. The City of Fort Worth explicitly reserves the right to consider any deviations in its bid award decisions and may accept or reject any bid based on the deviations indicated. If a bidder does not submit any deviations on this form, the City will interpret the proposal as full and unconditional agreement to comply with all requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions listed in the draft Vendor Services Agreement.

The deviation form does not contain specific information regarding pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, set-asides, incumbent vendors, response deadlines, or award dates. The form serves solely as a tool for bidders to formally communicate exceptions to the standard contract terms and specifications, allowing the City to evaluate proposals with complete transparency regarding any requested modifications to the baseline agreement.
