ATTACHMENT G - COMMONWEALTH RESPONSE TO 2ND SET OF VENDOR QUESTIONS- RFB 758 2600000066.xlsx

This file is a Commonwealth response document to vendor questions submitted during the Request for Bids (RFB) 758 2600000066 for off-site data and document storage services. The document is structured as Attachment G and addresses written inquiries from potential bidders regarding the RFB requirements and specifications. While the specific details of the project scope, quantities, response deadlines, and contract terms are not fully detailed in this excerpt, the file serves as a clarification mechanism to ensure all bidders have access to consistent information before submitting their proposals.

A vendor raised a significant concern regarding the absence of current storage volume information in the RFB documentation. The vendor noted that providing actual inventory quantities—such as the number of cases currently in storage—is essential for generating competitive pricing, as per-unit costs typically decrease with higher volumes. The vendor indicated that without this critical data, the incumbent contractor may possess an unfair advantage, as they have historical knowledge of storage volumes. The Commonwealth's response references an updated Attachment B, suggesting that volume information may have been subsequently provided to address this concern and ensure all bidders can submit pricing based on comparable data for the most competitive outcome.
