About this file

This is a required forms list appendix for Forest Hills Public Schools' Wireless RFP 2021, prepared by Plante Moran. The RFP requests wireless infrastructure components including Ruckus Wireless Access Points (model R750 or comparable equivalent), Oberon Wireless Access Point Enclosures (model 1020-C or comparable equivalent), and Extreme Networks switches (model X450G2-48p-10GE4 or comparable equivalent), along with associated patch cords, cabinets, and racks. The procurement covers 21 school buildings and administrative facilities across the district, with quantities totaling 1,000 wireless access points, 57 enclosures, and 21 network switches. The project is phased between 2021 and 2022, with specific building implementation dates listed for each location. Bidders must submit all required forms in Microsoft Excel format, including a proposal summary, non-familial relationship affidavit, school safety affidavit, compliance exception form, Iran Economic Sanctions Act affidavit, vendor questionnaire, equipment specifications, bid quantities, and cost schedules.

Pricing is structured as a three-year base bid cost with additional line items for unit costs including optional upgrades such as year four and five warranties, wireless controller appliances, access point removal/reinstallation services, and patch cable kits in various lengths. Vendors must indicate whether they comply, exceed, or take exceptions to RFP specifications and must hold pricing for potential summer 2022 change orders or guarantee a percentage discount off educational list pricing for hardware. The submission requires a performance bond with percentage adjustments for alternates or options selected. All affidavits must be notarized, and the Board of Education will not accept bids missing any required completed forms. The RFP reserves the right to accept or reject proposals in whole or in part, award to other than the lowest bidder, and award to one or more contractors at its sole discretion.
