About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 to RFP No. 26-0001 issued by the Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division in Columbus, Georgia on March 25, 2026. The addendum addresses banking services for an annual contract and clarifies three critical service requirements through vendor questions and responses. The City requires that the selected bank maintain multiple branch locations throughout Columbus to service several locations that make daily deposits, with armored car services not acceptable as a substitute for this requirement. Additionally, controlled disbursement account services are mandatory for the City's cash flow management, and account reconciliation services are essential for recording paid check activity into the City's financial system. Vendors must acknowledge receipt of this addendum using the form provided in the solicitation to avoid having their submittal deemed non-responsive.

The addendum establishes non-negotiable service requirements that will disqualify bidders unable to provide multiple branch locations, controlled disbursement accounts, and account reconciliation services. These three services are identified as integral to the City's banking operations and financial management processes. Vendors are required to formally acknowledge receipt of the addendum as part of their bid submission, with failure to do so potentially rendering the bid incomplete and ineligible for award consideration.
