About this file

This Addendum No. One modifies RFB No. 23-0021 for Backhoe Loader Rental (Annual Contract) issued by the Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division in Columbus, Georgia. The City seeks to rent a backhoe loader on an as-needed basis for use by the Public Works Department on various projects. The contract term will be for two years with options to renew for three additional twelve-month periods. The addendum clarifies that equipment will be rented for minimum periods of one calendar month and on an intermittent basis as needed. The City will handle transportation of the equipment once delivered by the vendor to the initial location, while the vendor is responsible for delivery. Vendors must acknowledge receipt of this addendum using the form provided in the solicitation; failure to do so may result in the bid being deemed non-responsive.

The addendum addresses vendor questions regarding rental frequency, transportation responsibilities, and equipment specifications. The City confirmed it will not accept ROPS (non-enclosed cab) units and will not consider alternative equipment such as a JCB 3CX with 75 HP rating, as the specifications outlined in the bid represent the minimum requirements necessary to perform the required tasks. No pricing terms, set-asides, or funding information is provided in this addendum document.
