The completed vehicle and components must comply with the current version of Federal Specification KKK- A -1822F unless specifically requested otherwise in the following document. As the criteria for compliance with KKK- A -1822F are well established, this document will not contain redundant references to their content. Bids will not be accepted after the date and time stated in the invitation to bid. Payment shall be made in accordance with these specifications and the Request for Proposal (" Bid Proposal') submitted by the Bidder. Payment will be made upon acceptance of the vehicle and equipment specified in this document. Bids received shall be evaluated by the Elmore County Board of Commissioners as the governing board of the Elmore County Ambulance District (the "Purchaser"). This evaluation will be based on, but not limited to compliance with the conditions and instructions of the bid, completeness of proposal, exceptions, price, and delivery schedule. Bid Proposals taking total exception to these specifications will not be accepted. Any exception to the provisions in these specifications must be marked in the body of this document and itemized on a separate attached page(s) titled EXCEPTIONS /DEVIATIONS /CLARIFICATIONS. Referenced by page and paragraph, a detailed explanation of the exception shall be provided, along with the bidder's alternative proposal. Bids not following this format shall not be considered. Any exceptions, deviations, or clarifications must be submitted in the order of this specification. The Bidder shall indemnify and save the Purchaser harmless from any and all claims, liability, losses, and causes of actions which may arise out of the fulfillment of an agreement arising out of these Specifications. The Bidder shall pay all claims and losses of any nature whatsoever in connection therewith, and shall defend all suits, in the name of the Purchaser when applicable, and shall pay all costs and judgments which may ensue thereafter. Failure to deliver any part of the order to the terms required may be considered by the Purchaser as a breach of contract. In such case the vehicle and equipment may be rejected and the purchaser shall retain the right to require forfeiture of the full amount of the Performance Bond (if required) as liquidated damages. 2 Attachment number 1 F -2 Page 50
