All non-comply answers are to be fully explained on a separate sheet to be attached to the bidders proposal. 2.4 FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE INFORMATION REQUESTED IN SECTION 2.3 MAY BE CAUSE TO REJECT THE BID. 2.5 It may be determined by the Authority that non-compliance with a unit specification not marked MANDATORY does, or does not, reduce the quality and performance of the affected unit below an acceptable level or that it may or may not represent a best value purchase because of such non-compliance. 2.6 Bidders are to submit additional manufacturer’s literature and information pertinent to their proposal as may be available. 2.7 Bidders may submit more than one proposal if different unit models are to be offered. 2.8 Any and all questions pertaining to these specifications or this procurement process must be in writing and submitted to: Tracy Allen, Purchasing Assistant West Virginia Parkways Authority 374 George Street Beckley, WV 25801 Phone: (304) 256-6680 Fax: (304) 256-6774 Email; tallen@wvturnpike.com 2 3.0 CONDITION OF UNITS UPON DELIVERY 3.1 The unit shall arrive at the prescribed delivery point having been completely pre-serviced with oil, lubricants, coolant, and tire pressure; with all equipment completely assembled, installed and operating as designed; and all required adjustments and corrections made to make the unit immediately ready for its designed and continuous operation.

The specifications outlined herein are general in nature describing a unit that the Authority feels best meets its needs. However, the Authority will consider any reasonable alternates to the specifications if the bidder can demonstrate that the proposed alternate is comparable in performance, quality and functionality. 4.2 The Authority realizes that certain models can have features beneficial to the Authority even though such features may not be specifically described in the technical specifications, Section 6.0. The vendor is to submit available literature and supporting documentation describing the unit in as much detail as possible. If the vendor wishes to point out certain beneficial features of his proposed unit, it may do so in a separate document included in its bid submittal package. In evaluating the bids the Authority may consider any special or unique features not included in the technical specifications. The Authority will award the bid to the vendor that provides the best overall value to the Authority whether or not the vendor has the lowest bid. 4.3 The Authority reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or to waive any non-consequential irregularities or informalities in proposals received.
