Revision # Document Section Current Solicitation Language Updated Solicitation Language

1 Section 3.1 Method of Award

Vendors may submit bids for one, two, or all three counties (Lee, Harnett, and Chatham).

However, to be considered for award in a given county, the Vendor must submit pricing for all locations listed within that county. Partial bids for individual sites within a county will be considered non-responsive and will not be evaluated.

Vendors may bid on Waste and Recycling Services, Construction Debris Services, or both, in one or more counties.

To be considered for award in any service category (Waste and Recycling or Construction Debris), Vendors must submit pricing for all listed service locations or line items within that category’s pricing table for the applicable county. Incomplete pricing in any service category will result in that category being deemed non-responsive for the corresponding county.

2 Attachment A:

Pricing

Vendors must complete the pricing tables for each county they wish to bid. Pricing shall reflect the total monthly and annual cost per location and container type.

Vendors must complete all line items in the pricing tables corresponding to each county and service category for which they are submitting a bid. Pricing for Waste and Recycling Services must reflect the total monthly and annual cost per location and container type for each contract year.

The Disposal Rate – Self-Hauled line item is required only in the Lee County Construction Debris pricing table. Vendors may leave this line blank in Harnett and Chatham County pricing tables without affecting responsiveness.

The following are questions received about the Solicitation and the College’s response:

Question

Document Section Vendor Question College’s Response

1 Section 2.4 IFB Schedule

What is the expected start date for services under the new contract?

Services are expected to begin on Monday, August 4, 2025, with no lapse in service from current providers.

2 Section 5.0 Specifications & Scope of Work

Please confirm which materials should be included in the recycling service. Is it limited to cardboard and paper, or should it include other materials as well?

Recycling containers should accommodate mixed recyclables, including glass, aluminum cans, newspapers, magazines, and plastic bottles, containers, and packaging.

3 Section 5.1 Specifications

Are the front-load recycling containers intended for cardboard only or for mixed recycling?

All front-load recycling containers should be suitable for mixed recycling, not limited to cardboard.

4 Section 5.1 Specifications

Which service locations have roll-off containers on site year-round? Or are all roll-off containers requested for temporary periods of time?

None of the College’s current locations require year-round roll-off containers. However, roll-off containers may be requested for temporary use at any location on an as-needed basis.

5 Section 5.1 Specifications

It states that “the vendor shall provide disposal service at the local transfer station” and must coordinate with College staff for access and billing. Since we do not own or operate a transfer station, does that disqualify us from providing collection services?

No, Vendors are not required to own or operate a transfer station, but those bidding on Lee County Construction Debris Services must be able to provide access to a local transfer station where the College can dispose of self-hauled materials. This may be arranged through third-party agreements or similar means.

The line item titled “Disposal Rate – Self- Hauled” is only required in the Lee County pricing table. It may be left blank in the Harnett and Chatham County pricing tables without affecting responsiveness.
