About this file

This document is an Important Bid Addendum from the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction (NCDAC) for a clothing rental solicitation, specifically Bid Number 52-IFB-1672530165-PJW. The bid is scheduled to open on September 09, 2025, at 2:00 PM ET, with John Poucher listed as the purchaser. The addendum addresses two specific vendor questions regarding shop towel rental, confirming that a state convenience contract (STC-983B) exists and clarifying the intended use of high-quality white towels for digital printing and plate processing environments.

The addendum reveals that the towels will be used for complex industrial purposes, specifically to contain ink, solvents, metal shavings, and other impurities during printing processes. The towels are required for removing contaminants from metal before screening, cleaning screens for reuse, and general cleaning across departments and warehouse areas. The document confirms that these are not simply standard cleaning towels but specialized rags essential for maintaining production quality and cleanliness in a technical printing environment.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Response to questions received in the bid referenced above:

# Question Response

1 Are you aware the shop towel rental is available from Cintas under state contract 983B?

Yes, STC-983B is a convenience contract.

2 Printers shop towels / high quality white towels -This is where I have a question. Will these towels be used to contain ink, solvents, metal shavings, etc.? Or will they only be used for general cleaning such as dust and normal everyday tasks. (Microfiber cleaning towels, for instance.) The description says they are used for "digital printing and plate processing where clean rags are a necessity" and "for removing impurities from metal before screening, cleaning screens in order to reuse existing prints, general cleaning of all departments and warehouse areas as dust removal ensures blemish free production."

--This is an important distinction as it will affect our wash process entirely. Just need clarification

Yes these towels are used to contain ink, solvents, metal shavings, etc.
