PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

THE FOLLOWING CHANGES ARE HEREBY ADDED TO AND MADE A PART OF (REQUEST FOR BID NUMBER 510073)

Q: In reference to bid 510073, attached is an email I received from Bushnell indicating that their model 132105 binoculars are discontinued. I was advised there is a similar model being made by Tasco that will be sold in lieu of this model.

Because this is a bid for a three year contract, and because there are numerous stringent requirements placed on this bid not allowing for alternative products to be placed in the bid, I feel as though it’s my responsibility to make sure that the State of Wisconsin is aware of this confirmed discontinuation of product manufacture. Any ability to acquire these binoculars will be limited to existing stock dealers have on hand as Bushnell will no longer accept orders for additional models.

A:An alternate to the Bushnell 132105 binocular is acceptable if it meets the same specifications. Samples of alternate products may be requested.

BIDDERS MUST SIGN AND SUBMIT WITH THIS SIGNED COVER PAGE WITH THEIR BID SUBMISSION.

I/We certify that we have not, either directly or indirectly, entered into any agreement or participated in any collusion or otherwise taken any action in restraint of free competition; that no attempt has been made to induce any other person or firm to submit or not to submit a bid; that this bid has been independently arrived at without collusion with any other bidder, competitor, or potential competitor; that this bid has not been knowingly disclosed prior to the opening of bids of any other bidder or competitor; that the above statement is accurate under penalty of perjury.

We will comply with all terms, conditions, and specifications required by the State of Wisconsin in this request for bid and all terms of our bid.
