Addendum 1 24-5000 OPM.pdf

This Addendum No. 1 for RFQ 24-5000 pertains to OPM (Owner's Project Manager) Services for a Regional Emergency Communication Center (RECC), prepared by the Westborough Chief Procurement Officer and Westborough Fire Chief on 2/12/2024. The document details a question-and-answer session addressing key project details, including that no designer has been selected yet, the project is grant-funded, and an in-person site visit is recommended but not mandatory. The procurement seeks comprehensive OPM services for a combined emergency communication facility, with a specific focus on a complete technology buildout that may involve upgrading existing infrastructure for two towns.

The project is currently in the early planning stages, with confirmed grant funding already secured. The most significant technical requirement appears to be a full technology infrastructure upgrade, though specific details about the exact scope and technological needs remain undefined. The procurement team has not yet issued an RFP for design and is seeking clarification from potential bidders about the project's program and specific requirements. The lack of a defined program and the open-ended technology scope suggest this is a preliminary procurement stage where potential OPM service providers are being sought to help shape the project's direction and implementation strategy.
