C260597_RFP_Exhibit_D,_Exceptions_and_Deviations_Form.pdf

This is an Exhibit D form from an Informal Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Orange County Transportation Authority in California for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Medicare Section 111 reporting services. The RFP establishes a structured process for offerors to submit technical and contractual exceptions or deviations for Authority review and consideration. Proposals must be submitted electronically by the deadline specified in the RFP, and no hard copy submissions are accepted. The contract is valued at $36,000 for an initial three-year term. Offerors who do not submit exceptions or deviations are deemed to have accepted all technical obligations and contractual terms and conditions outlined in the Scope of Work and Proposed Agreement Exhibit C. Any exceptions or deviations submitted after the proposal submittal date will not be reviewed by the Authority.

The Exhibit D form requires offerors to clearly identify each exception or deviation, specify whether it pertains to the Scope of Work (technical) or Proposed Agreement (contractual), reference the applicable section or exhibit and page/article number, provide a complete description of the deviation or exception, and justify the rationale for the request. This form serves as the official mechanism for offerors to formally document any modifications to the Authority's standard requirements and contractual terms, ensuring transparent communication and documented consideration of proposed deviations during the evaluation process.
