This is a required forms exhibit for the Cannabis Business Tax System Request for Proposals issued by the County of Los Angeles Treasurer and Tax Collector. The file contains Appendix B, which outlines the required forms and exhibits that proposers must submit as part of their proposal response. The RFP solicits proposals for the provision of a comprehensive Cannabis Business Tax System to support the County's tax administration and collection operations. Proposers must meet minimum mandatory requirements outlined in Paragraph 4.0 of the RFP and must carefully review all required forms and exhibits prior to submission. All proposals must comply with the specified format requirements and content guidelines, with particular attention to the Statement of Work contained in Exhibit A of Appendix A.

Proposers are required to identify and list all exceptions to the County's Standard Terms and Conditions within their proposal submissions. The County will not accept proposals that attempt to replace the Standard Terms and Conditions in their entirety with the proposer's own terms. The responsiveness evaluation process will factor in both the quantity and substantive nature of any exceptions taken, with proposals containing numerous or material exceptions receiving lower scores. Proposers demonstrating the greatest ability to accept the County's Standard Terms and Conditions without exceptions will be considered more responsive. The evaluation and selection process will identify the most responsive and responsible proposer for contract award and performance of the required services.
