ITB Addendum 2 - Change Schedule of Events.pdf

This is Addendum 2 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the State of Oregon Department of Administrative Services, State Procurement Services (DAS SPS) for Herbicide Chemicals (Liquid & Dry) on behalf of state agencies and members of the Oregon Cooperative Procurement Program (ORCPP). The addendum modifies the Schedule of Events for ITB S-10700-00015503, revising all critical timeline dates. The voluntary pre-bid conference has been moved from January 27, 2026 to January 21, 2026 at 1:30 PM Pacific Time. The deadline for bidders to submit questions and requests for clarification has been changed from January 29, 2026 to January 23, 2026 at 3:00 PM, with DAS SPS anticipating responses by January 27, 2026. The ITB Protests Period ends on January 28, 2026, and the bid submission deadline remains February 3, 2026 at 3:00 PM Pacific Time with bid opening on February 11, 2026. The Notice of Intent to Award is anticipated approximately February 4, 2026, with the associated protest period ending approximately February 11, 2026, seven days from the notice date.

Protests to this addendum must be submitted by Thursday, January 22, 2026 at 3:00 PM using the same submission procedures outlined in ITB Section 3.8. The revisions consolidate the pre-bid and question submission timeline to provide bidders with compressed timeframes while maintaining the established bid due date and opening procedures. All changes are clearly marked within the revised Section 1.3 Schedule of Events using strikethrough font for deleted language and bold underlined font for new language to facilitate comparison with the original ITB timeline.
