ADDENDUM 1
ITB #22-025 Purchase of Beverage Products
April 11, 2022
Dear Vendors, The following questions have been received by the Purchasing Department concerning Invitation to Bid 22-025 Purchase of Beverage Products:
1. If we currently do not carry specific products or flavors, do we need to fill out everything we can offer? Or for instance, currently, we do not have a 10 oz. juice, to win the bid, we will need to have access to this package? Or if we only have access to 2 types of Gatorades zero?
Answer: Vendors are asked to bid on all items. If a specific item is not available, vendors can submit pricing information for alternates that match the required specifications. Vendors must provide the specifications for each item offered as an alternate.
2. Do vendors need to provide any equipment for this bid if awarded? Coolers?
Answer: The awarded vendor will be asked to provide refrigerated merchandiser for some high schools only.
3. If we want to add other items to the list such as Body Armor Lyte 12oz. and AHA Sparkling water 16 oz. cans, is it sufficient if we send you pictures of the nutritional label and UPC?
Answer: Please see answer #1. The District will accept and review alternates that match the required specifications. Proposed alternates must include the specifications. Vendors can send pictures with the nutritional label and UPC.
