Summary of IFB 26-013-RM Addendum #2
This is Addendum #2 to an Invitation for Bid issued by KUA (Kissimmee Utility Authority) in Florida for a Monarch System Software Upgrade with Site Acceptance Test. The addendum, issued December 3, 2025, by Jennifer Grieves, provides clarifications and answers to seven bidder questions regarding system configuration, database migration, remote access, operating system preferences, interface scope, workstation build approach, and project workflow responsibilities. The project involves upgrading an OSI Monarch system configuration utilizing eight servers (DEV1, CORP1, and six additional servers across ECC and BUCC environments) with data migration requirements including approximately 250 GB of Chronus historian data covering three years and an 80 GB MSSQL database. The bidder will configure the Monarch system and support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), while KUA will provide server and workstation virtual machines, IT minimum configuration, third-party software installation, and remote access via Teams. The final system will be transferred to KUA for on-site staging, Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) with KUA hands-on keyboard operation supported by the bidder, and on-site cutover.
KUA will provide all third-party software, including MSSQL Server, and has confirmed preferences for Windows Server 2022 and Windows 11 Enterprise for workstations built from scratch. The bidder is responsible for no additional third-party interfaces beyond the ICCP interfaces already listed in the solicitation. This addendum supersedes all verbal or other instructions previously given to qualified proposers and must be acknowledged and returned with the bid response. The cost implications and configuration responsibilities outlined in this addendum are incorporated into the fixed-price bid pricing and represent modifications to the original solicitation documents.
