By submission of its offer, the Offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certification and requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or sub factors. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale.
