This is a deviation form for Request for Proposal No. 26-0096 issued by the City of Fort Worth, Texas, for Meter Boxes and Lids required by the Water Department. The form serves as the mechanism by which bidders can document any exceptions or deviations from the terms, conditions, and specifications outlined in the RFP and the City's draft Vendor Services Agreement. Bidders must provide detailed explanations for each deviation, reference the specific RFP section affected, and propose alternative language where applicable. The City reserves the right to accept or reject any bid based on deviations submitted. If no deviations are indicated on this form, the City will consider the bidder's proposal as full and unconditional agreement to all requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions listed in the RFP and draft Vendor Services Agreement.

The deviation form provides space for bidders to list up to ten separate deviations with detailed justifications. The form does not specify pricing terms, set-asides, contract duration, or renewal options in this particular document. Bidders must clearly indicate whether they are submitting with no deviations or with exceptions by checking the appropriate box on the form. The City's evaluation of proposals will consider any deviations as part of the award decision-making process.
