About this file

This is Addendum 1 to a solicitation issued by the State of West Virginia for John Deere Gator Snowplows and Winches with Installation (ARFQ GSD2700000024). The addendum addresses vendor technical questions and responses regarding equipment specifications for the procurement. The solicitation specifically requires John Deere Model 845M Gators equipped with snowplows and winches. Regarding blade specifications, vendors inquired about using alternative hydraulic systems and materials; however, the Agency mandated that moldboard blades be constructed from Stainless Steel rather than carbon steel, with specifications of 6-foot width and 23-inch height. The addendum permits the use of full hydraulic blades with up/down and left/right angle cylinders as an alternative to winch-based blade operation.

The addendum includes standard terms requiring all provisions of the original solicitation to remain in effect unless specifically modified by this addendum. Vendors are required to acknowledge receipt of all addenda by completing an Addendum Acknowledgment Form and submitting it with their bid; failure to acknowledge addenda may result in bid disqualification. The document emphasizes that only written information officially added to specifications through addenda is binding, and verbal representations made during discussions with state personnel are not binding. The addendum was revised on August 24, 2023, and includes a checkbox acknowledgment form for vendors to confirm receipt of all numbered addenda (1-10) issued with the solicitation.
