About this file
This is an addendum to a design and installation contract for Gwinnett County Government in Georgia for a CATV Headend Master Control System upgrade, issued on September 21, 2022. The project requires vendors to design and install upgrades to the county's cable television headend system while maintaining continuous operation of video playback and bulletin board services during implementation. Key deliverables include removal and repair of an existing Evertz sync generator for reinstallation, replacement of a Digital Processing Systems Inc. (DPS-295) video signal processor with a current model or equivalent, and replacement of a failing DVD recorder with a rack-mountable alternative such as a Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Studio 4k Pro for Board of Commissioners meeting archives. The contract also requires inclusion of 1,000 hours of closed captioning service through Cablecast. Vendors must submit detailed product specifications with their bids and acknowledge the addendum with an authorized representative signature to ensure bid responsiveness.
Pricing for the contract must be submitted as a lump sum and include a one-year subscription for all applicable services. The existing system environment consists of specialized broadcast and recording equipment currently in use by Gwinnett County for live streaming distribution to cable providers and video archive purposes. The project is critical to maintaining county government communications infrastructure while modernizing aging components that are currently failing or approaching obsolescence.

Please note the following clarifications/additions that should be taken into consideration when submitting pricing.
C1. Vendors should include specifications with their bid submittal, outlining the products they intend to use for the upgrade.
C2. Vendors lump sum should include a one-year subscription on any applicable services.

Questions:
