2022-05 Addendum 1.pdf

This is Addendum 1 to Request for Bid #2022-05 issued by the County of Portage, Wisconsin Purchasing Department for the establishment of a contract to purchase culvert pipe for Highway Department projects throughout 2022. The addendum, dated February 23, 2022, addresses clarifications regarding material forecasting and ordering procedures. The County was unable to provide projected totals for expected culvert pipe orders due to pending final designs and reviews, with totals expected to be available concurrent with the timeframe for placing orders, which was several weeks from the addendum date.

To accommodate the uncertainty in material quantities, the County suggested that vendors consider submitting multiple bids with tiered pricing pending the dollar thresholds anticipated to be reached during the 2022 project year. This approach would allow flexibility in procurement as actual project needs and funding become finalized.
