The following items are updated to reflect the revisions and are hereby incorporated into the bid documents, ITB NO.
24250090B-VG - ART PAPER.
A. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Q-1. Kindly provide us the clarification for the product mentioned here.
1. Item#: 6 - Kindly specify the lbs. for the product.
A-1. 24 LB
Q-2. On the Price Schedule, descriptions include manufacturer(s) and specify ONLY. If I remember, you did say we could submit a bid for the item(s) with a different manufacturer than is specified. Just want to confirm what I remember.
A-2. If the Price Schedule has “ONLY” on the Mfg/PN: line, then that is the ONLY product we are interested in receiving pricing for. If there are a few brands listed, we need to know which of the requested brands you are providing pricing for. If we receive a Price Schedule with nothing listed under the Mfg/PN space, we will consider that bid Unresponsive. We need to know the brand you are providing pricing for.
If you look at the price schedule, the fields highlighted in blue are the fields that need to be completed if you are bidding on that item.
Q-3. I asked about the ordering frequency. You mentioned that typically there is a large order placed for the beginning of the school year and smaller orders may go out throughout the year as needed. Are those smaller orders typically monthly, quarterly or randomly placed? This will help us with regard to freight considerations on our up front bid.
A-3. We order in larger quantities per quarter. Some quarters will have more than one order. We try to keep minimum order quantity to 2 pallets of material.
Reminder: Taken from Page 2, Section 5 of the bid document.
5. QUANTITIES / VOLUME OF BUSINESS. Quantities shown on the Price Schedule are the School Board’s anticipated needs and are not to imply or guarantee any purchase quantities during the term of this agreement.
