About this file

This document is an Addendum #1 for a VoIP Telephone System project issued by Northville Public Schools (NPS), with the project number 25-NPS-VTS-01. The addendum, dated June 24, 2025, provides clarifications and responses to potential contractors' questions regarding the project. The district intends to upgrade its existing Cisco VoIP Telephone System, specifying that only an on-premises system will be accepted, and alternative handset manufacturers will not be considered. The addendum confirms that the district will provide secure on-site staging/storage during after-hours installation and that remote cut-over of virtual servers is permissible if on-site testing is completed.

The document notably maintains strict confidentiality around evaluation criteria, explicitly stating that no information will be disclosed about evaluation weightings, socioeconomic considerations, or budget allocations. Potential contractors are informed that the district will not consider purchasing through the Michigan CoPro+ cooperative contract and will proceed with the public Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The addendum provides clear guidance that the project is focused on a direct upgrade to the existing Cisco VoIP system, with no flexibility on system type, manufacturer, or deployment model, suggesting a tightly controlled procurement process with specific technical requirements.
