About this file
Addendum No. 2 for Northwestern State University (NSU) involves a solicitation (SB#7666) for Athletics Weight Room Equipment, scheduled for bid opening on October 2, 2025. The addendum addresses multiple vendor inquiries regarding equipment quantities and specifications, specifically clarifying details about rack systems, including 12 full racks with stainless steel slots, 18 two-post add-ons, 6 lat pulldown machines with low row attachments, and 18 open-ended trap bars. The document provides responses to specific questions about room layout, equipment dimensions, and confirms that room measurements, flooring, and electrical layouts remain current and accurate.
The addendum includes a Fair Market Value of Equipment Form for trade-in value assessment, which lists multiple Williams brand half racks, benches, and dumbbells. Vendors, including Life Fitness, are seeking clarification on specific equipment items and quantities to ensure their bid accurately reflects the university's requirements. The document emphasizes the importance of precise equipment placement within the designated space and encourages vendors to review the drawings (pages 9-14 of the bid document) to ensure compliance. Failure to acknowledge the addendum may result in the non-consideration of the bid submission, and vendors are instructed to return signed acknowledgment or indicate any necessary revisions.

4) RESPOND TO VENDOR INQUIRY:
VENDOR INQUIRY:
I am writing in reference to Bid SB# 7666 – NSU Athletics Weight Room Equipment. Before finalizing our response, I would like to request clarification on a few details to ensure full compliance with the project requirements:
1. Room Size and Layout:
o Could you please confirm that the room measurements, flooring, and electrical layout provided remain current and accurate?
o Since the equipment must fit precisely within the designated space, confirmation of updated dimensions will help us ensure all items align with the requirements of the Strength & Conditioning Department.
o Equipment Quantities:
o NSU Athletics Weight Room Equipment (SB# 7666) Line Item 50 lists only one
(1) set of PowerBlock Pro 125 dumbbells. Given the scale of the facility, this appears unusually low. Could you confirm whether multiple sets were intended?
o Additionally, Line Item 2 (Rack System Half Rack Add-ons – Qty 18) appears potentially disproportionate when compared with the available space and other listed equipment. Can you confirm whether this quantity is correct?
We want to ensure that our bid reflects the actual needs of the University and avoids any discrepancies between the proposal and the project’s functional requirements.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
2. Room Size and Layout:
o Room, flooring and electrical layout are all current and have not changed.
o All the dimensions are on the drawings provided. They are accurate and correct.
See pages 9-14 of the bid document.
o Equipment Quantities:
o This should be 18. (Please see Addendum No. 1) o This is correct.
This addendum is hereby officially made a part of the referenced solicitation and should be attached to the bidder’s proposal or otherwise acknowledged therein.
Failure to acknowledge addendum may result in the non-consideration of the bid submission.
If you have already submitted your proposal and this addendum causes you to revise your original bid, please indicate changes below and return to Business Affairs/Purchasing Section prior to bid opening in an envelope marked with the bid number, bid opening date, and time.
If this addendum does not cause you to revise your bid, please acknowledge receipt of the addendum by signing your name and company below and returning it in accordance with the provisions above.
