About this file
This is Addendum #1 to the Request for Proposal issued by Cheshire Public Schools for a fire alarm system upgrade at Cheshire High School located at 525 South Main Street, Cheshire, Connecticut. The addendum, issued February 6, 2026, modifies the original contract documents dated October 24, 2025, and must be acknowledged by proposers to avoid disqualification. The project requires installation of a Notifier-based fire alarm system with no alternate manufacturers accepted. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for Monday, February 16, 2026 at 9:00 AM at the school's main entrance, with sealed proposals due March 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM and opening immediately following at the Office of School District Operations, Room 12. The addendum introduces an alternate pricing option for a Graphic LED Type Annunciator (Kirkland RSG or RSC series or approved equal) to replace the specified Touchscreen Graphic Annunciator Interactive Firefighter Display. The alternate annunciator must contain four floor plans depicting the lower level, first floor, second floor, and mezzanine/second floor attic, divided into 60 total zones with LED illumination for each zone, coordinated with the owner prior to submittal. Contractors must provide all lamp drivers and relay modules required for complete installation and full functional operation with appropriate programming for devices within respective zones.
Proposers must submit two separate pricing lines on the revised proposal form: one for the base installation of the new fire alarm system and one for the alternate graphic annunciator panel, specified as either an add or deduct to the installation cost. The file does not specify pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent contractor information, or funding sources. Proposers must acknowledge receipt of this addendum as part of their proposal submission, with failure to do so potentially resulting in disqualification from consideration.
