The addendum updates the bid's response timeline, pushing the due date to 7/14/2025 at 4:00 PM, and provides clarifying responses to five vendor questions regarding electrical requirements, torch specifications, training expectations, and machine configuration. The addendum emphasizes that vendors must configure machines for single-phase power, provide a specific torch type (CKC-150, 2-piece, 12.5ft, Rigid Head style), and include mandatory on-site training costs within their total extended item cost.
The addendum includes technical details such as electrical supply specifications, with a photo of a PWA-12 wall plug illustrating the power connection type. Vendors are instructed to review Section 2.7 and include this addendum in their bid response, with a warning that failure to provide all required items may result in bid rejection. The document clarifies that quotes for additional items like water coolers or machine carts are not currently requested, and on-site training is compulsory. Vendors must provide comprehensive electrical supply details in their response and ensure their machines meet the specified single-phase power configuration requirements.
