Exception_Sheet.pdf

This Exception Sheet is a standard form document issued by the City of Carmel, Indiana, Board of Public Works and Safety for the Carmel Fire Department Vehicles IFB 2026. The sheet serves as a template for bidders to document and explain any deviations from the specifications and terms outlined in the invitation for bid. Bidders are required to list and explain exceptions they are taking to the stated requirements, with the understanding that material variances may result in their responses being deemed non-responsive and therefore ineligible for award consideration.

The Exception Sheet does not contain specific project details, pricing information, or other substantive contractual terms. Rather, it functions as a procedural document that allows bidders to formally communicate any proposed modifications or clarifications to the base specifications for the two groups of vehicles being procured: three 2026 Chevrolet Traverse LT AWD units and two 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe SSV 4x4 5.3 V8 units. Bidders should complete this form carefully, as the City reserves the right to determine whether any stated exceptions constitute material deviations that would impact responsiveness to the bid.
