About this file
This is Amendment 1 to Invitation for Bids (IFB) Q00P6601348/BPM053547 issued by the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services for a Data Center Gear Refresh project. The amendment, dated December 4, 2025, modifies bid sheet quantities in Sections 2.0.1 through 2.11. The project involves procurement of Cisco Nexus 9300 networking equipment and related components to replace end-of-life Nexus 5Ks and migrate SAN devices from unsupported FCoE to iSCSI, with procurement of Data Center grade Nexus switchgear to replace outdated Catalyst gear. The amendment reduces quantities across multiple line items, including the primary Nexus 9300 switch (reduced from 36 to 4 units), fans (reduced from 24 to 12 units), and power supply units (reduced from 16 to 8 units), with corresponding reductions in all associated dummy PIDs, mode selection components, software, accessories, and licensing terms. The contract includes a three-year term with no indication of renewal options in the amendment.
The amendment does not address pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, current environment details, or specific funding sources within its scope. The document serves solely to clarify and correct bid sheet quantities from the original IFB, with all other minimum specification requirements remaining unchanged. All vendors who received the original IFB were notified of these changes on December 4, 2025.
