About this file

Addendum No. 1 is issued by the Office of State Procurement for the State of Louisiana, specifically addressing the Invitation to Bid (ITB) for a Self-Propelled Mid-Mount Broom for the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD), solicitation number 3000024633. The addendum modifies the original bid specifications, including changes to the engine model from DT80J to DT74, and revises details about tire sizes and brake systems. The bid is scheduled to open on May 6, 2025, at 10:00 AM CT, with vendors required to acknowledge receipt of the addendum and potentially revise their submitted bids if necessary.

The addendum resolves vendor questions regarding technical specifications, particularly focusing on engine options, tire sizes, and equipment configuration. Vendors are advised that the revised Attachment B - Specifications (Pages 1-6) supersedes the original document, with the primary change being the engine model specification. The Office of State Procurement provides multiple submission methods for bid acknowledgment or revision, including mail, hand delivery, and fax, while reserving the right to request additional documentation. The addendum emphasizes that failure to execute an acknowledgment does not relieve bidders from complying with the original bid terms.

ADDENDUM NO. 01

Your reference is directed to RFx Number 3000024633 for the Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the State of Louisiana – Self-Propelled Mid-Mount Broom, which is currently scheduled to open at 10:00AM CT on 05/06/2025.

The following changes are to be made to the referenced solicitation:

Questions from the Vendor and State’s Responses:

Vendor Question 1. Engine – Original Description calls for a DT80J or Equal. This is an old model number for a Mid mount Superior Broom with an 80 HP John Deere engine. 74 HP is now offered in FPT, Cat, or John Deere engines. Is there a preference?

State’s Response: See revised Attachment B – Specifications – Pages 1-6.

Vendor Question 2. Tires - Calls for 16” (1.6) but Spare tire (1.4) is specified as 15”. Which do we want? 15 or 16? All need to be the same.

State’s Response: See revised Attachment B – Specifications – Pages 1-6.

Vendor Question 3. Item 1.7.2 under brakes - Calls for Hyd surge brake system on tongue. And Item 1.11.3 Lunette Eye and safety chains. Sounds like it is describing a “Tow Bar” Which is typically on a tow-behind broom or small three wheel model. Not normally on a broom like this.

State’s Response: See revised Attachment B – Specifications – Pages 1-6.

Line 1 of RFx currently reads: Model: DT80J or Equal

Line 1 of RFx changed to read: Model: DT74 or Equal

Replacing Attachment B – Specifications – Pages 1-6 in its entirety.

All else remains as on original Invitation to Bid.
