5.14. SPECIFICATIONS

A. The specifications shown in the Invitation for Bid are intended to represent items of a quality level known to meet City’s requirements. While the City endeavors to promulgate written specifications that are accurate and nonrestrictive for submittal purposes, they may also reference an item by manufacturer’s name and model number. Respondents are cautioned that in the event of a discrepancy therein, such difference must be timely questioned in writing.

The City, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether equipment or goods are equivalent in capability and quality.

C. In cases where an item is identified by a manufacturer's name, trade name, catalog number, or reference, it is understood that the Respondent proposes to furnish the item so identified and does not propose to furnish an "EQUAL" unless the proposed "EQUAL" is definitely indicated therein by the Respondent. The reference to a name brand is intended to be descriptive but not restrictive and only to indicate to the prospective Respondent articles that will be satisfactory.

Submittals on other makes and catalogs will be considered provided each respondent clearly states in their submittal exactly what he proposes to furnish and forwards with their submittal a cut illustration or other descriptive matter which will clearly indicate the character of the article covered by their submittal.

The City hereby reserves the right to approve as an equal, or to reject as not being equal, any article the Respondent proposes to furnish which contains major or minor variations from the specification requirements but may comply substantially therewith. If no particular brand, model, or make is specified and if no data is required to be submitted with the submittal, the successful contractor after award and before manufacture or shipment may be required to submit working drawings or detailed descriptive data sufficient to enable the City to judge if such requirement of the specification is being complied with.

D. Respondents are strongly encouraged to submit equivalent equipment or materials for consideration during the question and answer period. If equivalent equipment or materials is proposed, indicate the manufacturer's name and model number for the equipment and include any literature or other explanation of the equipment's quality or performance with your submittal.

If applicable, detailed equipment specifications for make and model offered shall be provided with submittal.
