The Estimated Quantities in the Pricing Schedule are provided solely for evaluation of quotations. They represent approximate

otherwise stipulated by the County. This RFQ is an informal negotiated procurement process. Lowest price may not always be the sole
criteria for award of an RFQ. The County reserves the right to waive a variation in specification if, in the opinion of the County, such

of products (including products of brand name manufacturer s other than the one described by the brand name) to be considered for
award if such products are determined by the County to meet fully the salient characteristic requirements listed in the request.
Unless the offeror clearly indicates in the quotation that an "or equal" product is being offered, quotation shall be considered as offering
the brand name product specified.
If the offeror proposes to furnish an "equal" product, the brand name, if any, of the product to be furnished shall be inserted in the space
provided in the request for quotation, or such product shall be clearly identified in the quotation. The evaluation of the quotation and
