4-RFP-07-Deviations.xlsx

This is a Deviation Form for Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 26-0109 issued by the City of Fort Worth, Texas, for Commercial Kitchen & Laundry Equipment Services. The City seeks proposals to establish a Non-Exclusive Agreement for commercial kitchen and laundry equipment services to be provided to all City Departments on an as-needed basis. The form serves as a mechanism for bidders to formally document any deviations or exceptions from the terms, conditions, and specifications outlined in the City's draft Vendor Services Agreement and the RFP requirements. Bidders must indicate whether they are proposing no deviations or whether deviations exist, and if deviations are proposed, each must reference the specific RFP section with detailed explanations and proposed alternative language.

The form emphasizes that the City of Fort Worth reserves the right to accept or reject any bid based on deviations indicated by the bidder. If a bidder submits no deviations or exceptions, the City will consider the proposal a full and unconditional agreement to comply with all stated requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions of the Vendor Services Agreement. The form provides ten numbered lines for detailed listing of deviations, allowing bidders structured space to present their exceptions in an organized manner.
