About this file
This is Addendum 1 to the Request for Quotation LAB26-03-COC issued by the City of Cocoa's Finance Department, Purchasing Division, modifying the original laboratory services contract documents and specifications. The addendum addresses ten clarifying questions submitted by potential bidders regarding pricing, submission procedures, evaluation methodology, and reporting requirements. The original bid due date has been extended from March 24, 2026, to March 31, 2026, at 5:00 PM local time in response to a bidder request for additional preparation time. Key modifications include authorization for online bid submissions through the Vendorlink portal, inclusion of estimated quantities on the bid sheet to enable total bid value calculations, and confirmation that evaluation will be based on total pricing using the estimated quantities provided rather than single unit pricing. The contract period runs for one year from award with four optional one-year renewal periods.
The addendum clarifies that ICP Metals pricing is quoted on a per-metal basis, DI Water metals pricing covers all six listed metals, and Gross Alpha pricing must be provided for both inclusive and exclusive of uranium scenarios. Regarding reporting timelines, the city confirmed that the standard 10 calendar day reporting requirement applies even when weekends fall within that period, with acknowledgment that subcontracting factors may extend timelines. The addendum removes the notarization requirement previously stated in Attachment C. No pricing guidance or budget information is disclosed, and no set-asides, incumbent contractors, or current environment changes are referenced. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum on the provided Receipt of Addendum(s) and Acknowledgement Form.

To All Plan Holders:
The following addresses and provides clarification of the Bidding Documents and Specifications as fully and completely as if the same were fully set forth therein. Receipt of this addendum must be noted on the Receipt of Addendum(s) and Acknowledgement Form.
A. This addendum includes and addresses the following questions:
1. Could you please provide the current contract rates (if there were any price escalations from the previous 2020 bid B-21-05(A)-COC). Please submit a public records request by completing the following online form: https://city-of-cocoa-fl.nextrequest.com/requests/new
2. The Vendorlink portal currently does not have an option for online submission. Due to the number of files required, email submission may not be feasible, could you active the online submission option? Yes. The bid is modified to allow for online bid submissions.
3. Is there a place to report the total price? The bid sheet is modified to include estimated quantities so that a total bid value can be entered. Please note that there is no guarantee of work and actual quantities will vary.
4. Will the Bid be totaled and evaluated using internal testing frequency estimates or by single unit pricing? Total pricing based on estimates provided under this addendum.

9. Standard reporting is 10 business days. With the 10 calendar days reporting request do you require reporting to be completed on the weekends when applicable? Yes, if and when applicable.
