(1) arranges for independent evaluation of any other workforce services provided by the staffing organization; and
(2) requests and obtains from the Texas Workforce Commission a waiver of the separate staffing requirement and of the requirement under Section 2308.264(a).
(d) A request for a waiver under Subsection (c)(2) must contain a detailed justification for the waiver, including:

(2) prior experience;
(3) geographic or budgetary considerations; and
