About this file
This is an Addendum #2 document containing responses to offeror questions regarding RFP 26-494DOT-FINAD-B-50588 for a Public Participation Plan issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The primary deliverable is the development of a Public Outreach Policy Guide focused exclusively on statewide planning and programming initiatives, not district-led transportation projects. The vendor is required to develop a Policy Guide Training and Execution plan designed for both internal and external stakeholders, with internal engagement activities expected to include feedback collection from different IDOT districts. The Policy Guide will not include recommended changes to Chapter 19 of the BDE Manual, nor will the vendor be responsible for updating that chapter to reflect the new guidelines. The new public involvement guidelines and standards will not apply to Phase I and Phase II design projects.
Confidentiality treatment of pricing information in proposals is governed by Section E.2 of the RFP regarding Public Record and Requests for Confidential Treatment, with different aspects of pricing information potentially subject to varying confidentiality considerations. The document does not specify pricing terms, contract duration, award dates, or other financial arrangements, as these details would be contained in the main RFP document rather than this questions and answers addendum.
