About this file

This addendum clarifies specifications for Invitation for Bid 802-26-75218 issued by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for the purchase of two 250-horsepower Suzuki outboard motors with accessories. The addendum, dated April 24, 2026, addresses three key technical questions regarding the procurement. The original bid deadline was April 22, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Standard Time; however, this addendum extends the deadline to April 29, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST. The document provides vendor guidance on helm shift and steering cable lengths, steering system specifications, and propeller pitch requirements. Regarding steering, respondents bidding a power-assisted hydraulic system must use commercial-grade components suitable for commercial use, with fly-by-wire or drive-by-wire systems being preferred. For propellers, vendors must provide units compatible with the specified fiberglass vessel with pitch optimized for appropriate performance characteristics.

The addendum specifies that vendors may need to contact the vessel manufacturer for precise cable length requirements and propeller pitch calculations based on vessel weight and length. Respondents are required to acknowledge receipt of the addendum and return a signed copy with their proposal submission. No changes to the original terms and conditions of the solicitation are made except as clarified in this addendum, which becomes part of the solicitation document and any resulting awarded contract.
