This is Addendum No. 3 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Financial Services, Criminal Investigations Division, for law enforcement vehicle upfitting services. The addendum modifies Section 2.2, Timeline, of the original ITB document and provides updated deadlines and procedures for bid submission and evaluation. The deadline for vendors to submit questions to the Procurement Officer is February 13, 2026, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, with answers anticipated to be posted on the Vendor Information Portal (VIP) by February 27, 2026. Bid responses and all required documents must be submitted to DFSPurchasing@myfloridacfo.com by March 20, 2026, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time. The public response opening will occur on March 20, 2026, at 3:30 PM at the Department of Financial Services, 200 E. Gaines Street, Larson Building, Tallahassee, Florida 32399, with telephonic attendance available via conference call at 888-585-9008 using Conference No. 498-257-393. The Notice of Intent to Award is anticipated to be posted on the VIP on April 3, 2026, with an anticipated contract start date to be determined.

The addendum clarifies that attendance at the public opening is not required and notes that the conference call number has been corrected from a previous version. No changes to pricing terms, insurance requirements, warranty provisions, performance penalties, or contract terms are indicated in this addendum. The contract remains structured as a three-year initial term with options to renew for up to three additional years, contingent on satisfactory performance and available funding. The addendum serves primarily as a procedural update to ensure vendors have accurate information regarding submission deadlines and public opening attendance options for this competitive sealed bid solicitation.
