About this file

This Solicitation Addendum No. 1, issued by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services on August 28, 2026, modifies Invitation for Bid 10-IFB-255738 for Forestry Drones. The addendum extends the solicitation opening date and time to September 4, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The original solicitation requests bids on DJI Matrice 4T and Mavic 3 Multispectral drones with associated accessories and support services across four requisitions to be delivered to locations in Rocky Mount, Asheville, Rockingham, and Fairfield, North Carolina. Delivery must be completed within sixty consecutive calendar days after purchase order receipt. The contract term is one year from award, with awards to be made on a Best Value Analysis and Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source Selection basis, with the general intent to award to one vendor.

The addendum addresses six clarification questions submitted by vendors regarding quote submission format, technical support response times (within one business day for hardware and software issues), pre-flight service requirements (standard setup, activation, updates, and testing), warranty coverage options, equipment specifications for different locations, and new Pix4D license setup. Vendors must provide unit costs and extended costs for all line items across the four requisitions and must comply with North Carolina's E-Verify requirements and Vendor Utilization of Workers Outside U.S. Disclosure Statement. Manufacturer's standard warranty coverage is required, with vendors obligated to offer at least one additional year of annual maintenance at escalation rates not exceeding five percent per year. Support services must be available eight hours daily, Monday through Friday, with an eight-by-five next business day maximum response time. All offers must be submitted electronically via the Ariba Sourcing Module as a single signed PDF file, with late submissions automatically disqualified.
