This is Addendum #1 to Bid Invitation #2469-22, issued by the State of New Hampshire Division of Procurement and Support Services on June 28, 2021, for laundry chemicals to be supplied to New Hampshire Hospital and Glencliff Home for the Elderly. The addendum modifies specifications for both facilities' laundry operations, including detailed changes to equipment descriptions and chemical product requirements. For Glencliff Home, the addendum clarifies that the facility operates seven industrial-style washers (two 105-pound, three 100-pound, one 55-pound, and one 50-pound capacity) located in a single laundry building, processing approximately 400,000 pounds of laundry annually. For New Hampshire Hospital, the addendum adds specifications for an additional Knight laundry chemical pump system with a pump rate of 17.1 ounces per minute and a transport pump flow rate of 3.5 gallons per minute. The addendum also introduces additional bulk chemical products including Command, Ultra Reclaim Step 1 and Step 2, and modifies several Ecolab non-bulk product descriptions and quantities. The bid closing date remained July 8, 2021, at 11:00 AM EST, and the addendum includes clarifications addressing site survey opportunities, specific washer makes and models at both facilities, scale availability, and operational details regarding laundry volumes and schedules.
Vendors are required to supply and maintain laundry chemical pump systems meeting specified technical requirements, with replacement equipment fitting within existing kitchen-style cabinets in patient care areas. All pricing must include delivery with no additional surcharges, and vendors must provide monthly service, titration readings, and trained personnel for technical assistance. The addendum clarifies that any technician entering patient care areas must complete a Hospital-provided Contractor Orientation lasting approximately two hours. Vendors must be registered New Hampshire State vendors and provide certificates of insurance with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, along with proof of workers' compensation insurance. The contract term is three years commencing August 1, 2021, with options for two additional one-year extensions, potentially extending the relationship to five years maximum. All changes noted in the addendum supersede previously submitted documents and must be submitted with bids.
