DRM 2024 57 6 Emergency Notification System at BSH Addendum No 1.pdf

This document is Addendum No. 1 for a state contract issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Correction, Division of Resource Management, concerning an Emergency Notification System project at Bridgewater State Hospital in Bridgewater, MA. The addendum, dated October 17, 2025, provides clarifications and modifications to the original bid specifications for bidders, specifically addressing questions from Brite-Lite Electrical Co., Inc. regarding bid form requirements and documentation.

The scope of work modifications include specific technical requirements for fiber optic infrastructure, such as installing fiber jumpers from fiber trays or boxes to network switches, using plenum-rated fiber with orange corrugated split tubing, and removing the 24-pair single-mode fiber runs from MDF to IDF from the original project scope. Bidders are instructed to list the site location at the top of the Bid Form and use the "Schedule for Participation by MWBE Construction" form available on COMMBUYS, which replaces the previous SDP Plan Form #1 used in earlier projects.
