The form is designed to allow contractors to document any proposed deviations from the solicitation requirements by identifying the line item number, location, the specific exception being proposed, and the justification for the exception. The template explicitly notes that base reference publication exceptions are not acceptable, indicating that proposed exceptions must address specific solicitation requirements rather than general industry standards or publications.
