About this file
This is Addendum #1 to Bid Invitation #2469-22 issued by the State of New Hampshire Division of Procurement and Support Services for laundry chemicals (bulk and non-bulk) to be supplied to the New Hampshire Hospital and Glencliff Home for the Elderly. The addendum, dated June 28, 2021, modifies the original bid specifications and clarifies facility requirements. The bid closing date is July 8, 2021, at 11:00 AM EST. Key changes include updated washing machine specifications for Glencliff Home, which now houses seven industrial-style washers (two 105-pound, three 100-pound, one 55-pound, and one 50-pound unit) all located in a centralized laundry building, replacing the previous three home-style machines in separate buildings. The New Hampshire Hospital specifications remain largely unchanged with six commercial Milnor washers of varying capacities. Addendum #1 introduces additional laundry chemical pump system requirements, specifically a Knight pump system with specifications of 17.1 ounces per minute pump rate and 3.5 gallons per minute transport flow rate. The bid includes detailed product specifications for both Patriot and Ecolab branded chemicals with specified quantities, and vendors are required to supply, maintain, and replace seven patient care unit pumps as necessary while ensuring compatibility with existing kitchen-style cabinets.
The addendum clarifies that awarded vendors must maintain both the existing Beta ILS Max pump system and the additional Knight pump system, with specifications including pump rates and "out of chemical" alarms. Vendors may be required to replace pumps with equivalent systems if equipment changes are necessary. Glencliff Home washes approximately 400,000 pounds of laundry annually, while New Hampshire Hospital processes approximately 251,767 pounds of clean linen annually. Site surveys are permitted for vendors in the main laundry areas of both facilities following appointment coordination. Any technician entering patient care areas must complete a two-hour Contractor Orientation provided by the Hospital. The addendum specifies that all changes supersede previously submitted documents and must be submitted with the bid, with all other specifications remaining unchanged and valid. The document requires bidder signature and contact information acknowledgment.
