RFP_4184RC_Auditing_Services_Addendum_1.pdf

This is an Addendum #1 to Request for Proposal No. 4184RC issued by Marion County Schools District in Florida for Auditing Services. The addendum modifies professional liability insurance requirements specified in the original RFP document. The District seeks to engage a certified public accounting firm licensed under Florida Chapter 473 and qualified to conduct audits in accordance with government auditing standards adopted by the Florida Board of Accountancy to provide independent auditing services to the District. Proposers must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by completing and returning the Acknowledgement of Addenda form (Attachment B) located on page 32 of the original RFP document with their submitted proposal.

The addendum revises the professional liability insurance requirements on page 19, section D, removing the specified deductible limit of $25,000. The modified language now states that the minimum limits of coverage must be $500,000 with any deductible remaining the responsibility of the proposer, providing greater flexibility regarding deductible amounts. This change clarifies the District's requirements while shifting responsibility for deductible determination to the proposing firm. The purchasing department contact for this procurement is Rick Collins at the Marion County Schools Purchasing Department, located at 2091 NE 35th Street, Ocala, Florida 34479, with telephone number 352.671.7500.
