Question State Response

1.

The cost of the Inovonics 551 is $8,910. If you are not already aware, this is a unilaterally set price by the manufacturer meaning no one is allowed to sell it below that price. If someone does, they are not playing fair and could get in serious trouble with Inovonics. I imagine you are required to bid this out regardless, but just FYI, everyone should bid this price. As far as paperwork and whatnot goes, what do you need from me?

The State of Nebraska is aware that the manufacturer has unilaterally set prices and the State Purchasing Bureau will request from the bidder as needed during bid evaluation any additional documentation regarding this matter.

2.

The first page of the solicitation 6748 OF says:

No facsimile or email solicitation responses will be accepted on bids $25,000 and over.

(12/19/22 sc)

So, in order to be considered, the solicitation needs to be returned by mail, or Fedex/UPS?

Bidders per the instructions within the solicitation document can upload documents electronically rather than using US Mail, FedEx or UPS.

Please see information about ShareFile links and uploading information in Section I.C.4., within the Schedule of Events. Also, please see Section I.H.
