This addendum is to provide answers to questions received in reference to this Invitation to Bid.
Question / Answer
1. ITB FNW 25 26 05 & ITB FNW 25 26 04, both have the same bid specifics details. Is one supposed to be a different region or have different volumes?
Per federal regulations, 7 CFR 250.12(f) require each storage and/or distribution contract to include specific provisions which is why each ITB contains the same requirements.
An interested bidder that only wants to bid on the distribution of USDA Foods for Service Area 1, Region 1 should only respond to ITB 25 26 04.
This Addendum is hereby incorporated into and made a part of the above noted Invitation to Bid.
All other terms, conditions, and specifications of this Invitation to Bid will remain the same. For questions regarding this Addendum, please contact the Purchasing Office at (850) 617-7181 or email at Bids@FDACS.gov.
Failure to file a protest within the time prescribed in Section 120.57(3), Florida Statutes, or failure to post the bond or other security required by law within the time allowed for filing a bond shall constitute a waiver of proceedings under Chapter 120, Florida Statutes. Protests must be filed with the Department’s Agency Clerk. Filings may be made physically at:
Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services The Holland Building
600 South Calhoun Street Tallahassee, Florida 32399 mailto:Bids@FDACS.gov
