4-HSS-26-037 Exceptions Report Form -Attachment 3.pdf

This is an Exceptions Report Form attachment for contract HSS-26-037 issued by the Delaware Health and Social Services Division of Public Health for Interviewing Services for the Delaware Adult Tobacco Survey. The form provides vendors with a structured template to document any exceptions to the RFP specifications, terms, or conditions they wish to propose. Vendors must indicate whether they are submitting proposals without exceptions by marking the designated box, or alternatively, detail each exception using the provided table format that captures the paragraph section and page number referenced, the RFP's referenced text, the vendor's proposed language, vendor comments, state response, and vendor response. The document explicitly permits vendors to use additional pages as necessary while maintaining the same formatting structure.

The exceptions report form does not contain pricing information, set-asides, incumbent details, funding sources, or contract term specifics. This document serves solely as an administrative tool for vendors to formally document and track any deviations from the RFP requirements during the proposal submission process, allowing the state and vendors to maintain a clear record of proposed alternatives to the original specifications and any subsequent negotiations or clarifications.
