Cat2 470 Addendum 3_23_26.pdf

This RFP addendum clarifies installation and configuration requirements for the Hall County Library System's Category 2 Internal Connections project, an E-Rate Funding Year 2026 initiative in Georgia. The addendum specifies that installation and configuration services are mandatory for all equipment listed in the original RFP, including wireless access points, firewalls, and switches, which aligns with the "Installation and Initial Configuration" requirements stated on FCC Form 470 #260022312. To accommodate vendor labor cost calculations, the bid submission deadline has been extended to March 26, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST. All other terms and conditions of the original RFP remain unchanged.

The primary RFP solicits proposals from USAC service providers holding valid Service Provider Identification Numbers (SPIN) to supply networking infrastructure for both a new library location and upgrades to existing sites, including detailed pricing, service descriptions, and three-year licensing renewals for the current Meraki environment or functional equivalents. All necessary components for hardware operation and management are required as part of vendor proposals. Questions regarding the solicitation must be submitted via email to Mason Patton at mpatton@hallcountylibrary.org by March 2, 2026.
