Question
Response
Did this change the solicitation?
1.
If any of the preferred items are included in the product, where do we input "included"?

Exhibit C – Bid Price “Availability” column has been revised to allow bidders to select one of the following required options:

· Built into Board

· Separate Item

· Unavailable

Y

2.

The "Mercury content amount" field does not accept a "0", what would you like us to input if there is no mercury in that product?

Exhibit C – Bid Price has been revised to allow for the Mercury Content Amount entry of “0.00” for bidders seeking the Mercury Preference.

Y

3.

Two slides before bidder evaluation where showed possible awards per category. It looked like standard – up to 2 winners and reserved up to 1; however, did I see the slide before the bidder evaluation show an all 11 category award as well? I didn’t see that on the competitive solicitation document.

Exhibit A-1 Bidder Certification has been revised to remove any reference to an all-award category.
