This document is Addendum 01 issued by the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) for Cattaraugus, Allegany, Erie & Wyoming Counties, addressing the RFB/RFP #25001-2 for Classroom Supplies. The addendum, dated 12/20/2023, provides clarifications on specific bid items and answers vendor inquiries prior to the bid opening on January 12, 2024, at 9:00 A.M. The primary focus of the addendum is to provide detailed responses to three specific questions regarding classroom supply items, including clarifications on paint brands (Crayola or equivalent) and specifications for certain product items such as ounce measurements and ply requirements.

The addendum does not introduce new pricing terms or significantly alter the original bid specifications, but instead provides crucial clarification to ensure vendors submit accurate and compliant bids. Vendors are instructed to review the updated information, particularly noting that some paint items are specified as "Crayola Only" while others allow equivalent brands. The document requires bidders to sign the addendum and include it as part of their bid submission, emphasizing the importance of using the most recent version of all required documents. The contact for further inquiries is Carena Joesel at purchasing@caboces.org, and all documents related to the bid can be found through a link mentioned in the addendum.
