This document is an addendum to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services (DPSCS) for the procurement of three (3) 500KW portable generators to be installed at the Patuxent Institution, Jessup Correctional Institution, and Maryland Correctional Institution-Hagerstown. The addendum provides responses to questions received from prospective bidders, clarifying that the generators must have the capability to output both 480/277V three-phase and 208/120V three-phase power via a selector switch.

The addendum also denies a request to approve an alternative generator model, stating that the three listed brand manufacturers have been tested and proven to meet the solicitation requirements.
