About this file

This document is a set of Questions and Answers related to a Request for Response (RFR) for Floor Machines issued by the state of Massachusetts. The RFR is seeking proposals for the provision of floor machines, including buffer and stripper machines from the Viper and Clarke brands or compatible alternatives. The RFR requires both the contractor and any subcontractors to be authorized by the manufacturer to sell these machines. It also specifies that price increases will be allowed at the time of contract renewal, but there will be no opportunity to present manufacturer price increases for evaluation prior to renewals.

The RFR also includes requirements around replacement parts used in repairs after the warranty period, which should be priced the same as the cost plus percentage listed elsewhere in the response. Additionally, the RFR requires the inclusion of both a pad brush and a pad holder, if both are needed for the buffer and stripper machines.
