C260564_Exhibit_D_Exceptions_and_Deviations_Form.pdf

This is an Exhibit D Proposal Exceptions and Deviations Form for RFP 260564 issued by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for Public Outreach Services for the Interstate 5 Improvement Project from the San Diego County Line to Avenida Pico. The form provides a standardized template for offerors to submit technical or contractual exceptions and deviations for OCTA's consideration and review. Offerors must clearly state each exception or deviation along with the rationale for the requested change, identifying whether the deviation pertains to the Scope of Work (technical) or the Proposed Agreement (contractual), and referencing the specific section, exhibit, page, or article number affected. All exceptions and deviations must be submitted as part of the original proposal by the submittal date specified in the RFP; any exceptions or deviations submitted after the proposal deadline will not be reviewed by the Authority. If an offeror submits no exceptions or deviations, they are deemed to have accepted all of OCTA's technical obligations and contractual terms and conditions as set forth in the Scope of Work and Proposed Agreement Exhibit C.

The contract opportunity has a budget of $99,450 for a two-year term. Proposals must be submitted electronically by the specified deadline; hard copy submissions are not accepted. By submitting a proposal, offerors certify compliance with all applicable Ukraine/Russia-related economic sanctions imposed by the State of California and the United States Government, including Presidential Executive Orders 13660, 13661, 13662, 13685, and 14065. The proposal should include offeror qualifications, related experience, references, staffing details, a work plan, and a cost and price proposal.
