About this file

This is a Solicitation Addendum issued by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, specifically modifying the solicitation for North Carolina Forest Service (NCFS) Emergency Services for Wildland Firefighter Crews. The addendum, numbered 1 and dated July 9, 2026, addresses a critical modification to Section 5.1 regarding crew daily availability for initial dispatch. The original solicitation opening was scheduled for August 14, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. ET, with a mandatory pre-bid conference on July 22, 2026, in Asheville. Bidders were required to submit updated responses addressing changes resulting from this addendum prior to the solicitation opening. The contract term is one year from execution, with the State retaining options to renew for up to two additional one-year terms at its sole discretion.

The primary modification reverses the time zone designation for crew availability periods: the updated language specifies 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. during daylight savings time (November 2, 2026 - March 7, 2027) and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. during Eastern Standard Time (March 8, 2027 - November 1, 2027), correcting the original solicitation language which had these designations reversed. This change impacts contractor scheduling and operational planning for wildland firefighter crew deployments across North Carolina. Failure to return the executed addendum subjected responses to potential rejection. The addendum indicates that all other terms and conditions of the original solicitation remained unchanged, with bidders required to acknowledge their understanding of the modifications through authorized signature and date.
