** ADDENDUM #1 **
REQUEST FOR BID #7963 DEADLINE: 7/15/2026 AT 11:00 AM
87 & 89 OCTANE GASOLINE
The following are clarifications to RFD #7963:
Question #1: Are split deliveries between the sites permitted?
Answer #1: Yes
Question #2: As stated in the packet, we appreciate how you understand the importance of a quick lock in for firm pricing- with that being said, would we be able to email the fixed pricing prior to submission but mail all other aspects of the contract? Due to geographical challenges, we are unable to physically submit our final packet by hand. As we have seen with the state of global affairs, the market is changing drastically each day and even between the hour. Allowing us to email would ensure that we have the most competitive price for date of submission, rather than a null off er if the market sees any swing before day prior and date of submission.
Answer #2: Please note, as stated in the RFB, Bidders are not permitted to submit their bids via fax or email. Bids shall be hand-delivered or delivered via USPS or commercial delivery service (UPS, FedEx etc.) to the Town of Greenwich Purchasing Department by the deadline.
Question #3: Who is the current vendor?
Answer #3: Santa Buckley Energy Inc.
Question #4: Are current contract invoices/BOLs available?
Answer #4: Yes
Question #5: Can you line item all taxes that Greenwich is NOT exempt from?
Answer #5: The Town of Greenwich pays CT GRT tax and LUST fee on gasoline only.
An Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer, M/F/H
Question #6: Is a COI required with submission?
Answer #6: No.
Question #7: Does Greenwich have a submission checklist we may utilize to ensure nothing is missed?
Answer #7: Please refer to RFB.
