RFQ Amendment 1 - RFQ 26CDVSA1112C - Transcription Services.pdf

This is Amendment 1 to RFQ 26CDVSA1112C issued by the State of Alaska's Division of Victim Services and Advocacy (CDVSA) on February 3, 2026, addressing questions submitted by prospective bidders regarding transcription services. The amendment clarifies that CDVSA will provide complete audio recordings of all meetings requiring transcription, eliminating any expectation for the contractor to attend meetings or perform recording services. The majority of meetings are conducted virtually via the Microsoft Teams application, and both transcription and minute preparation services may be performed remotely. The bid deadline is 1:30 p.m. AKST on February 5, 2026, and bidders must sign and return this amendment with their quote or risk being considered non-responsive. All questions prior to the deadline must be submitted in writing to the Procurement Specialist, Calin Logan, at calin.logan@alaska.gov or (907) 269-0599, with any prior phone conversations confirmed in writing.

This amendment is mandatory for all bidders and does not modify any other terms and conditions of the original RFQ. Bidders who received the solicitation through the State's Online Public Notice website must register with the Procurement Specialist to receive notification of any subsequent amendments, as failure to do so may result in rejection of their offer. Faxed, oral, or physical bids will not be accepted; only written submissions meeting the specified deadline will be considered.
