identical, to the supplies or services Contractor is providing other units of government under

completeness, and compliance with the Solicitation requirements. The City
reserves sole discretion to determine responsiveness and responsibility.

26.2 Responsiveness: Nonresponsive Offers will not be considered in the
evaluation process. The solicitation states criteria that determine
responsiveness, and the solicitation includes terms and conditions that if
included or excluded from Offers (as the case may be) will render an Offer
nonresponsive.

unacceptable, and an Offer that includes unacceptable exceptions,
conditions, reservations, or understandings may be rejected as
nonresponsive. Alternatively, the City in its sole discretion may instruct in
writing that any Offeror remove the conditions, exceptions, reservations or
understandings. If the Offeror fails to do so in writing, the City may
determine the Offer to be nonresponsive.
