About this file
This is Addendum #1 to a request for quotation (ARFQ WWV2700000001) issued by the State of West Virginia, WorkForce West Virginia, for the procurement of fifteen laptops and fifteen docking stations. The procurement requires delivery within twenty calendar days from the purchase order date, with no allowance for phased delivery or extensions due to funding purposes. Vendors must register through the West Virginia OASIS vendor self-service portal at https://prd311.wvoasis.gov/PRDVSS1X1ERP/Advantage4 to participate in this technology-related solicitation and manage their vendor profiles.
The addendum clarifies ten technical specifications and requirements through question-and-answer format. Key clarifications include acceptance of nano-SIM/eSIM technology in place of micro-SIM cards to support WWAN functionality, approval of Intel Core Ultra 7 255U processors as equivalent to latest-generation Intel Core i7 processors, and flexibility regarding carrier support for AT&T and Verizon (both preferred but either acceptable). The State confirmed that five-year Absolute Resilience licenses activated upon shipment satisfy contractual requirements, that four-year next-business-day onsite warranty and battery coverage may be provided through separate HP Care Pack services, and that no docking station adapters are required. Additionally, laptops that are WWAN-ready with antennas and SIM capability but lack factory-installed cellular modems are acceptable if permitted in the published request specifications.

Addendum # 1
ARFQ WWV2700000001
Q1. Can you please provide us the proper WEB SITE LINK or PDF document to participate in this TECHNOLOGY RELATED requirement, and how to become added as a vendor for any future TECHNOLOGY related demands for your organization kindly?
A1. You can view and respond to all solicitations for the State of West Virginia on the vendor self-service portal at the link below.
https://prd311.wvoasis.gov/PRDVSS1X1ERP/Advantage4 You can also register commodity codes and manage your vendor profile on the same portal.
Q2. The laptop specification requires a “micro-SIM,” while the specified HP EliteBook platform uses nano-SIM/eSIM technology. Will nano-SIM/eSIM be accepted if it provides the required WWAN functionality?
A2. Yes, it will be accepted.
Q3. Must every laptop support both AT&T and Verizon through the same installed WWAN module without a hardware change, or may a carrier-specific option be selected during deployment?
A3. Both are preferred but either will be accepted.
Q4. Will an Intel Core Ultra 7 255U processor satisfy the requirement for a latest-generation Intel Core i7 or equivalent processor?
A4. Yes, it will be accepted.
Q5. Will a five-year Absolute Resilience license satisfy the requirement for “5-year Absolute Resilience Complete activated upon shipment”? If activation before shipment is required, will the State provide the applicable Absolute tenant and enrollment information?
A5. Yes.
Q6. May the four-year next-business-day onsite laptop warranty and four-year onsite battery coverage be provided through separate, concurrent HP Care Pack services?
A6. Yes.
Q7. Does the docking-station requirement call for one DVI adapter and one VGA adapter with each docking station? If so, are DisplayPort-to-DVI and HDMI-to-VGA adapters acceptable?
A7. No adapters are required.
Q8. Is the 20-calendar-day delivery period measured from the purchase-order date? If factory lead times prevent complete delivery within that period, will phased delivery or an approved extension be considered?
A8. The 20-calendar day delivery period is measured from the purchase order date. Due to funding purposes, phased delivery or an extension is not acceptable.

Q9. This is acceptable if permissible with what we published in request.
Q10. If an installed LTE/5G modem is required at delivery, must one proposed configuration be certified for both AT&T and Verizon, or may carrier-specific configurations be proposed?
A10. Both are preferred but either will be accepted
