About this file

This is Addendum #1 to Bid Invitation 124-26 issued by the State of New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services, Division of Procurement and Support Services. The addendum addresses clarifications regarding trailer-mounted portable air compressors and provides guidance on acceptable equipment substitutions. The bid closing date and time is April 13, 2026, at 11:30 AM Eastern Time. Written questions were due by April 8, 2026, with state responses provided through this addendum. The original solicitation specifies the Sullivan-Palatek D185PIZ4 as the reference model, but the addendum clarifies that alternative units meeting or exceeding all technical specifications are acceptable as approved equals.

The addendum resolves two specific bidder inquiries regarding equipment equivalency. The State confirmed that alternative units such as the Atlas Copco XAS 185 100 and Airman PDS185S are acceptable if they meet or exceed all bid specifications. However, regarding the Airman PDS185S specifically, the State's response indicated acceptance only if the unit meets or exceeds all specifications, despite the bidder's disclosure of three minor deviations: engine output of 48.3 HP versus the required minimum of 49 HP at 2400 RPM, fuel tank capacity of 23 gallons versus the required minimum of 27 gallons, and maximum operating pressure of 120 PSIG versus the specified range of 80-125 PSIG. The purchasing agent is Lincoln Adams, contactable at NH.Purchasing@das.nh.gov. All changes noted in this addendum supersede previously submitted documents and must be submitted with bids. All other specifications remain unchanged and valid.

ADDENDUM # 01 TO BID INVITATION 124-26

DATE AND TIME OF BID CLOSING: 4/13/2026 11:30 AM

FOR: Trailer Mounted Portable Air Compressors

Question 1:

While we don't have the specified Sullivan-Palatek D185PIZ4, we do offer similar units such as the Atlas Copco XAS 185 100 and the Airman PDS185S. Can these alternate options be approved as equals?

State Response:

Other units are acceptable as long as they meet or exceed all the specifications

Question 2:

We would like to submit the Airman PDS185S as an “equal”.

The Airman PDS185S has a few minor deviations from the specified requirements based on the manufacturer’s published data:

• Engine output: Bid requires a minimum of 49 HP at ≤2400 RPM; the Airman Isuzu 4LE2T is rated at 48.3 HP (gross).

• Fuel tank capacity: Bid requires a minimum of 27 gallons; Airman provides 23 gallons.

• Operating pressure range: Bid requires 80–125 PSIG; Airman is rated up to 120 PSIG.

All other bid requirements appear to be met or exceeded.

Please let me know if the Airman PDS185S is acceptable as an approved equal.

State Response:

If the Airman PDS185S meets or exceeds all specifications it would be acceptable.
