Addendum 3~3.pdf

This is Addendum #3 to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for Fiber Optic Installation Services issued by the Town of Wareham, Massachusetts, effective September 22, 2026. The addendum modifies key project specifications from the original IFB document, which requires contractors to furnish all fiber optic equipment, supplies, materials, tools, supervisors, labor, permits, approvals, police details, bonds, and incidental services necessary to complete installations at multiple town locations. Bids for this project are due October 8, 2026. The addendum reduces the available fiber optic strands at the Town Hall location (54 Marion Road) from 60 strands to 18 strands, while maintaining the current total of 72 strands at that head-end location. Additionally, the Onset Water Tower project at Long Neck Road has been reclassified as an alternate location contingent upon funding availability, with the town providing trenching and conduit for this work.

The addendum also corrects a labeling error on Attachment A-5 (page 20), changing the map designation from "WPCF" to "Harbormaster." All bidders are required to acknowledge receipt and acceptance of Addendum #3 in their submitted bids. These modifications supersede and supplement corresponding language in the original IFB documents and become binding contract terms for the selected contractor. Interested bidders must reference the complete IFB package, including all addenda, available on the Town of Wareham's website at https://www.wareham.gov/bids.aspx to ensure accurate bid preparation and submission.
