This is an Exception Determination Letter from the Arizona Department of Administration, State Procurement Office, dated December 4, 2023, regarding Solicitation #BPM005633 for Foreign Language Interpretation and Translation Services. The letter, addressed to Topete/Stonefield, Inc., indicates that the offeror submitted requests for exemptions to the contract terms and conditions.

Topete/Stonefield, Inc. was required to submit any written responses or comments to the state's determinations by 3:00 PM Arizona Time on Wednesday, December 13, 2023.
The letter, issued by Stephanie Stevens, Statewide Procurement Manager, notes that taking exceptions to contract terms can result in the rejection or downgrading of an offer during evaluation. This determination letter represents a critical juncture in the procurement process where the offeror must either accept the state's positions on the contested contract terms or formally object to them prior to the established deadline. No pricing information, set-asides, or funding details are disclosed in this correspondence, as its primary purpose is to communicate the state's responses to the vendor's exception requests and establish the deadline for the vendor's formal reply.
