About this file

This document is Addendum #1 for Invitation to Bid (ITB) #ITB-2025-3086 issued by the School Board of Volusia County, Florida's Procurement Department for HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing Parts & Services. The solicitation is scheduled to open on May 27, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. EST, with the contract term tentatively beginning June 23, 2025, for an initial three-year period. The contract will cover 81 sites (67 schools and 14 ancillary locations), with one optional two-year renewal period available if mutually agreed upon by both parties. The addendum addresses several clarifying questions from potential bidders, including quote submission procedures, contract term dates, licensing requirements, and facility locations.

The addendum corrects a typo in the original contract term dates and provides additional context about the procurement. No specific budget is disclosed, and no guarantee is implied regarding purchase amounts during the contract term. Bidders are directed to a VCS Maintenance Equipment Report for facility locations and equipment details. The procurement contact is Jennifer Deveaux, who can be reached at jldeveau@volusia.k12.fl.us or 386-734-7190 Ext. 20394. Vendors must complete an acknowledgment section of the addendum, either returning it with their original submittal or emailing it separately with a specific subject line. Current contract information can be obtained through a public records request, and the pre-solicitation meeting video is available on VendorLink.
