Granite Falls reserves the right to evaluate all proposals for operational suitability and select the option that best serves the Town's overall interests. INFORMATION AND DESCRIPTIVE LITERATURE: Bidders must include comprehensive descriptive literature, general specifications, and any supporting data required for thorough evaluation along with their submission. MAKE AND MODEL: Equivalent makes and models other than the specific unit listed are acceptable; however, the bidder MUST supply documentation verifying full compatibility. DEVIATIONS: Any variations from the listed specifications must be explicitly noted by the bidder. Without explicit notes, the submission will be treated as fully compliant with all stated requirements, and the selected vendor will be held accountable to those standards. All deviations must be detailed directly within the bid or attached as a separate document. The Town makes no guarantee that proposed deviations will be accepted, and bidders are advised that responses on this point do not supersede detailed specification requirements listed elsewhere. BID DISQUALIFICATION: Introducing deviations of any scale risks disqualifying your bid due to strict legal contract compliance standards. Depending on the specifics, Granite Falls may be legally unable to award a contract to a proposal containing deviations. WARRANTY: Standard manufacturer warranty terms shall apply.
