About this file
This is Addendum #1 to an Invitation for Bid (IFB 26-013-RM) issued by Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA) in Florida on November 25, 2025, for the Monarch System Software Upgrade with Site Acceptance Test. The addendum clarifies critical technical specifications and infrastructure requirements for the project. The solicitation requires bidders to upgrade the Monarch System software and conduct site acceptance testing. Key specifications include building a VCenter Server on VMware vSphere Standard (v. 9) on the Development Server Host without cloud-based services due to KUA's air-gapped network policy, configuring OpenHIS with MSSQL and CHRONUS servers on Microsoft Windows Server 2022, and constructing 10 workstations for testing and development purposes. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by signature and return it with their bid response.
The addendum addresses three questions submitted by prospective bidders regarding infrastructure provision and technical specifications. KUA clarified that it will not provide cloud-hosted solutions such as Microsoft Azure, that the VCenter Server and workstations will be hosted on-site, and that while KUA can provide two physical workstations, the IFB requirement stipulates that bidders must build all 10 workstations. All costs associated with these specifications and clarifications are to be included in the fixed-price bid. This addendum supersedes any prior verbal or written instructions and has the same force and effect as the original solicitation documents.

I. QUESTIONS
Q1. Will Kissimmee Utility Authority be providing the VCenter server and shipping it to us or will we have remote access to a KUA Server? Or another option would be vendor to host this on a Microsoft Azure cloud.
A1. Assuming VMware vSphere Standard (v. 9) our VCenter Server will also need to be on 9.0 and will need to be built on the Development Server Host. We do not use any cloud-based services as we are air gapped by company policy.
Q2. What OS will the OpenHIS w/ MSSQL and CHRONUS servers be operating on?
Microsoft or Linux.
A2. Microsoft Windows Server 2022.
Q3. Will Vendor be provided two workstations for testing/development purposes? (VMs are okay)
A3. We can send 2 workstations but the IFB is asking for building 10 Workstations to be built.
Bidder(s) must acknowledge receipt of this amendment by signing this form below and returning it with your bid response.
