About this file

This document is Addendum No. 1 for Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 24250088B-VG issued by the School Board of Seminole County, Florida for Classroom & Office Supplies. The addendum, dated April 9, 2025, modifies the original bid documents by removing the Attachment B references requirement and provides clarification on notarization and attorney document completion. The solicitation seeks multiple vendors to supply classroom and office supplies, with bid submissions due on April 16, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. EST. Specifically, vendors must complete certain attachments, including a notarized Conflict of Interest form (Attachment D) and a Bidder's Statement of Principal Place of Business (Attachment H), which may require attorney completion depending on the business's primary location.

The addendum introduces a potential "Florida Preference" pricing adjustment of 5% for businesses located outside Florida, which could impact the evaluation price. Vendors must carefully manage notarization and attorney services timing to meet the submission deadline. The procurement contact is Victoria Gonzalez, Procurement Agent III, who can be reached at gonzalvm@scps.k12.fl.us or 407-320-0262 for any questions. Vendors are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum by completing the provided form, which includes fields for name, title, signature, email, date, and phone number, and must be returned with the bid submission or added to the submission in Vendorlink if already submitted.

The following items are updated to reflect the revisions and are hereby incorporated into the bid documents, ITB NO.

24250088B-VG – Classroom & Office Supplies.

A. THE FOLLOWING FORM HAS BEEN DELETED FROM THE SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS:

☐ ATTACHMENT B, REFERENCES: We are removing the requirement for references from this bid.

B. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Question 1:

I heard a mention that an attorney is required to fill out certain documents for the submission. Could you kindly clarify whether this refers to a notary requirement or if we need to engage a licensed attorney? If so, could you also let me know which specific documents this applies to?

Answer 1:

If you look at page 3 of the solicitation document, you will see a list of “Submittal Requirements”. These are the documents that need to be signed by an authorized signer from your company.

Attachment D – “Conflict of Interest” – This form needs to be notarized.

Attachment H – “Bidder’s Statement of Principal Place of Business” – If your company’s primary place of business is located in the state of Florida, then the top two lines need to be completed, and the form needs to be signed at the bottom. However, if your company’s primary place of business is located outside the state of Florida, then this form needs to be completed by an attorney. The location of your company’s primary place of business and the attorney’s legal opinion of that state’s statutes will determine if “Florida Preference” will be applied to your business and your evaluation price will be adjusted by 5%.

Be mindful of timing with respect to notarization and attorney services and the due date & time for submitting.
