The addendum provides clarifications on compliance requirements, including adherence to the federal Lobbying Disclosure Act through Lobbying Registrations (LD-1), Quarterly Activity Reports (LD-2), or Contributions Reports (LD-203). Itemization of costs based on staff and deliverables is optional for proposers using fixed monthly fee structures. Financial statements may be emailed directly to RFPPurchasing@longbeach.gov, attention Richard Peoples, for confidentiality protection. Resumes may be included as annexes to the staffing response, and the Cost Proposal has no specific format or template requirement but should follow Section 4.2 instructions. The Quote Items section in the Long Beach Buys Portal is not applicable to this solicitation, and the Cost Proposal should be uploaded as an attachment with other proposal materials.
