About this file

This is Addendum #1 to Bid Invitation 128-26 issued by the State of New Hampshire, Division of Procurement and Support Services, for the procurement of snow plow blades and related components. The addendum modifies the original bid timeline and specification compliance requirements due to market conditions affecting tungsten carbide availability. The State has extended the bid solicitation distribution date to April 23, 2026, moved the deadline for questions and clarifications to April 30, 2026, scheduled its response to questions for May 4, 2026, and reset the bid closing date to May 7, 2026, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. Additionally, the addendum permits bidders to propose alternatives to the tungsten carbide inserts specification, using the baseline specifications in Attachment 2 for comparison purposes, provided that bidders submit supporting engineering designs, laboratory test results, or other documentation demonstrating that proposed alternatives meet or exceed minimum standards.

The addendum modifies Section 24.3 regarding specification compliance to allow flexibility in manufacturer and model selection beyond those originally indicated in the bid, enabling vendors to bid alternative products that match or exceed the specified standards. Bidders proposing alternatives must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the purchasing agency that their offerings meet or exceed minimum standards, with the State retaining sole discretion to accept or reject any proposed alternatives. All changes outlined in the addendum supersede previously submitted documents and must be included with bid submissions. The purchasing agent is Devin Lahey, and all updated bid documents and addendums are available on the New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services website.

ADDENDUM # 01 TO BID INVITATION 128-26

DATE AND TIME OF BID CLOSING: 5/7/2026 10:00 AM

FOR: PLOW BLADES

Due to recent developments in the tungsten carbide market caused by trade restrictions in China the price of tungsten carbide has risen drastically. The State is thereby willing to accept alternatives to the Tungsten Carbide Inserts specification. The specifications listed in Attachment 2: Specifications under the Tungsten Carbide Inserts section will be used as a baseline to compare against proposed alternatives. The State has the right to accept or deny any proposed alternatives and will be the sole determiner if proposed alternative is acceptable. If proposing an alternative, please include in the bid submittal any engineering designs, lab test results, or any other documentation you deem is necessary for the State.
