This document is an Exceptions Table template for the End-User IT Outsourcing Services cooperative procurement solicitation COOP2026SOL-00009 administered by the State of Texas, specifically as referenced in the Department of Information Resources (DIR). The template is designed to allow companies to submit proposed exceptions and justifications to the standard contract language contained in the cooperative agreement. The form requests companies to identify the specific section number and section title where exceptions are proposed, provide written justification for the requested changes, and submit redlined proposed language for DIR review and consideration.

The document serves as a formal mechanism for bidders and potential cooperative participants to negotiate contract terms and conditions during the procurement process. No specific products, services, quantities, timelines, or award information is detailed in this exceptions table template, as it is a blank form intended for use by multiple companies throughout the solicitation period. The exceptions process allows for customization of the master cooperative agreement terms to accommodate varying operational requirements or business needs while maintaining DIR oversight and approval authority over any deviations from standard language.
