About this file

This document is Addendum 1 issued by the Louisiana Office of State Procurement for Invitation to Bid (ITB) Number 3000024941, specifically a rebid for light towers for the Department of Corrections-Department of Corrections Institutions (DOC-DCI). The addendum modifies the original solicitation by removing the stowed dimensions requirement for light towers and revising Attachment B - Specifications. The bid is scheduled to open on June 24, 2025, at 10:00 AM CT, seeking five light towers for the Dixon Correctional Institute in Jackson, Louisiana.

The addendum addresses two vendor questions, with the state explicitly stating a preference for heavier equipment due to the correctional facility environment. The state emphasizes that user-friendly or lightweight equipment is not desirable, as they want to prevent easy relocation of the light towers. Vendors are required to acknowledge the addendum and may submit revisions prior to the bid opening if the changes necessitate modifications to their original bid. The procurement process requires vendors to be registered in the LaGov vendor portal and comply with various state regulations, including registration with the Louisiana Secretary of State for contracts over $25,000.

ADDENDUM NO. 01

Your reference is directed to RFx Number 3000024941 for the Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the State of Louisiana – *Rebid* Light Towers – DOC-DCI which is currently scheduled to open at 10:00 AM CT on June 24, 2025.

Questions from the Vendor and State’s Responses:

Vendor Question 1. The stowed dimensions on the unit we would bid exceed the lengths but not the width or height on the bid document. To me our unit is easier to store. Takes up less space.

State’s Response: After further review, stowed dimensions are irrelevant. The stowed dimensions requirement has been removed. Please see attached Revised Attachment B - Specifications.

Vendor Question 2. For the dry weight and operating weight our offering will be lighter and more user friendly.

State’s Response: We do not need them light weight or user friendly. This is a correctional facility, so we need them heavy as our specs read because we don’t want someone to be able to drive up to it and move it or anything.

The following changes are to be made to the referenced solicitation:

Replacing Attachment B – Specifications – Pages 1-3 in its entirety.

Attachment B changed to remove: 6 LED Head Specify Bidding 6 LED Head: Yes ______ No ______ Unit Dimensions-Stowed: minimum 106” x 56” X 102” Specify Unit Dimensions-Stowed Bidding: ____________________

All else remains as on original Invitation to Bid.

THIS ADDENDUM IS HEREBY OFFICIALLY MADE A PART OF THE REFERENCED SOLICITATION.
