If other than specified brand of items are offered, specifications, catalog sheets, illustrations and complete descriptive literature must be submitted with bid. 15.3 Minor deviations from written specifications shall not necessarily disqualify a vendor's bid. The City of Lubbock specification committee will be the sole determiner of what constitutes a minor deviation. 15.4 The City may deem it necessary to specify Approved Brands after conclusive testing, prior to usage or standardization. The City may test any sample(s), supplied free of charge, to qualify for the Approved Brand list. Each sample must be marked with bidder's name and address.

Each sample shall be clearly tagged to show bidder's name and address and item number. 15.6 The City of Lubbock reserves the right to determine which specific items on any specification requirements require strict adherence, or are most important, and those that are not, or requiring a lesser degree of importance (i.e., the shade of paint is far less important than the horsepower of a motor). Such determination can and will be a basis for evaluating, recommending and making award. The City will, at its sole discretion, assess warranty offered, and utilize life -cycle costing and/or performance factors as the evaluation method and basis for award. The low bid most closely meeting specifications is usually the bid given the award, although delivery time is sometimes a necessary factor (i.e., a low bid that best meets specifications will not do us much good if delivery is two years from now). Should a requested 05-018-MA.doc ITB #05-018-MA, Pesticide and Herbicide Supplies specification sheet not be submitted with a bid, this is considered non -responsive and therefore may not be considered.
