About this file

This is an amendment to a solicitation from Jefferson County Human Services for one medium size lowstep minivan (RFB JCHS 2024-02). The amendment modifies several sections of the original solicitation, including extending the deadline for submitting questions and "or equal" product requests to December 19, 2024, at 2 PM CT, with written responses to be issued by approximately December 23, 2024. The amendment adds provisions for "or equal" product submissions throughout the document, particularly in sections regarding definitions, bid schedule, detailed specifications, and vendor questions and clarifications.

The amendment emphasizes that bidders may offer alternative products as "or equal" submissions, provided they are pre-approved through a formal written bid amendment. All "or equal" requests must be supported by technical data, test results, or other evidence demonstrating that the substitute product is equal to or better than the specified requirements. The agency will be the sole judge of equivalency and acceptability, and failure to provide "or equal" product information by the December 19 deadline will result in disqualification of the alternate bid. Bidders must include a signed copy of this amendment with their bid submission.
