Addendum No. 1 RFP No. 24-0018 Page 2 of 2 control box and in-car radio?

Response: Yes.

6. What is the anticipated need and location for maintenance training?

Response: The term “maintenance training” is being used in this context to mean any additional training vendor offers and the cost associated with that training. This is to include, but not limited to, training after certification but within the first year where the handler or canine is having difficulty in one area or another. For example, handler feels the canine is not tracking appropriately and has trouble shot the issue to no avail. The team might need maintenance training to address the issue. If there are any additional training packages included with the purchase, this is where that information would go.

7. Is maintenance training limited to the canines provided by the vendor, or will it include all pre-existing

CPD canines?

Response: Canines provided by the vendor.
