About this file

This document is an addendum to a Quick Quote solicitation (QQ # 57849) issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Forestry for the procurement of drone equipment and related accessories. The addendum outlines changes to the original scope of work, including the removal of certain Airworx items and the associated Section 889 requirement. The solicitation is seeking two DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Thermal drones, two CDC PRCS Elite Mavic 3 Series Quad Charging Cases, eight DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Flight Batteries, two iGen4500 Inverter Generators, two DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Part2 Batteries, two Predator portable 2000-watt super quiet inverter generators, two EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro Portable Power Stations, and two EcoFlow 220W Bifacial Portable Solar Panels. The bid due date has been extended to February 13, 2024, at 2:00 PM, and the addendum must be signed and included with the bid submission.

The solicitation specifies that no substitutions or like equivalents will be accepted for the requested items, as they have been selected for their reliability and compatibility with the Virginia Department of Forestry's existing equipment. The department has a stock of replacement parts for the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal unit to facilitate rapid repairs, and the IGEN4500 Generator is recommended for the DOF IGNIS Drone Batteries. The addendum also includes details on the National Defense Authorization Act of 2019 (Section 889) requirement, which has been removed from the solicitation.

QUICK QUOTE ADDENDUM

February 7, 2024

ADDENDUM NO. 1 TO ALL BIDDERS:

Reference – Quick Quote: QQ # 57849 Title: Drone Equipment Dated: January 31, 2024 Bid Due: February 8 13, 2024: 2:00PM

Note: This addendum must be signed and uploaded with your bid. Any bids that do not include a signed copy of this addendum may be considered non-responsive.

The above is hereby changed as follows:

Because Airworx does not allow resale, all Airworx items have been removed from the solicitation referenced above. Airworx items have been removed from both the Scope of Work and from the item pricing grid. The Section 889 requirement has also been removed.

*Additional language added to the SOW is indicated in yellow below.

The Airworx Go Command bundle is a DJI Mavic 3 Thermal, see above, plus a portable battery operated monitor. In addition, this comes with a case for the drone, monitor, and batteries. This is a trendsetter in the fire response world.

The Airworx Go Command Ultra Bright case are two additional battery-powered monitors to be used with DOF’s Alta-X IGNIS Drone Platform. DOF drone pilots are trained in using this, and cross training would be counterproductive.

4. One (1) Airworx Go-Command OG UltraBright Mission-Ready DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Thermal with 2-year Ext Warranty and Enterprise Care Protection, including:

a. 1x Mavic 3 Enterprise Thermal aircraft system with dual vision (wide and hybrid zoom camera) plus 640x512 thermal sensor

b. 1x RC Plus Enterprise Controller with integrated display

c. 5x M3E Flight Batteries

d. 1x CDC Quad Charging Case (charges 4 batteries fast and simultaneously)

e. 2x Full Prop Sets

f. 2-year Enterprise Care (extended 2-year warranty and 3 replacements in two years with small deductibles), and one free included maintenance service in the period.

g. Airworx Go-Command OG UltraBright case with 24” rugged sunlight viewable display, custom foam set to carry all product with additional room to grow, 60,000mah portable power supply and wireless screen casting from the Smart Controller.

(No substitutions)

5. Two (2) Airworx Go-Command OG UltraBright Case Only – SKB2317-14 3i Weatherproof wheeled case; Two custom foam trays; 24” UltraBright Rugged LCD monitor, ~1600 nit direct sunlight viewable; 60,000mah portable power station with AC/DC (USB) power; wireless screen casting hardware; two-port HDMI switch.

(No substitutions)

Per the National Defense Authorization Act of 2019, (Section 889), none of the goods requested shall contain telecommunications equipment, systems, or services produced by Huawei Technologies Company or ZTE Corporation, (or any subsidiary or affiliate of these companies); or video surveillance and telecommunications equipment produced by Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities).

Summary:

The Virginia Department of Forestry (DOF) is seeking a contractor to supply and deliver two

DJI Mavic 3 Thermal drones and related equipment to support its efforts in prescribed burns and wildland fire management. Bids must be for exact make and model for items 1-5; no substitutions of like equivalents will be accepted.

Items 1-5 were selected because of their reliability and compatibility with existing DOF equipment. DOF drone pilots have been trained with the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal unit, and cross training would be prohibitive, counterproductive, and would dramatically increase costs for DOF pilots. The specified accessories have been selected because of their reliability and compatibility with existing DOF equipment. Acceptance of like equivalents would pose a risk to health and safety as this equipment will be used for emergency fire response. DOF has a stock of replacement parts for the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal unit to facilitate rapid repairs. The IGEN4500

Generator is recommended for DOF IGNIS Drone Batteries. This generator can charge two large IGNIS batteries at one time, which will speed up charging capabilities for prescribed burns and wildland fire management.

Requirements:

1. Two (2) DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Thermal with Care Enterprise Basic (2-year), including:

a. 1x M3T aircraft with dual vision wide / zoom and 640x512 thermal sensor

b. 1x RC Plus Enterprise Controller for M3T

c. 1x Flight Battery for M3T

d. 1x Standard Charger for M3T

e. 1x OEM Rugged Case for M3T (Must fit the M3T drone without need for modification of drone or case.)

f. 2x Full sets of propellers for Mavic 3 Thermal Drone (1 set that comes with the drone and 1 back up set of propellers)

g. 1x Care Enterprise Basic 2-Year coverage offering a full 2-year standard warranty and 3 replacement aircraft systems.

(No substitutions)

2. Two (2) CDC PRCS Elite Mavic 3 Series Quad Charging Case (No substitutions)

3. Eight (8) DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Flight Batteries (No substitutions)

6. Two (2) Predator portable 2000-watt super quiet inverter generators with CO SECURE technology, or like equivalent meeting the following specifications:

a. Operates at 58 dB(A) or less.

b. Automatic shutdown feature: shuts down the generator for safety when harmful levels of carbon monoxide are detected.

c. 79cc engine or greater.

d. Includes at least: (2) 120 volt 5-20R outlets and (1) 12 volt DC port

e. Complies with ANSI/PGMA G300-2018 standard.

7. Two (2) EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro Portable Power Stations, or like equivalent, compatible with item 8 below without the use of adapters or any additional equipment.

8. Two (2) EcoFlow 220W Bifacial Portable Solar Panels, or like equivalent, compatible with item 7 above without the use of adapters or any additional equipment.
