ADDENDUM #1
The purpose of this addendum is to respond to questions asked during the Q&A period.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q1. Would you be able to supply the manufacturer name and part number for the bid list?
Manufacturer names and part numbers are not being provided at this time. All bidders shall provide products and/or equipment that meet or exceed the specifications identified in the ITB documents.
Q2. Would you be able to provide annual usage quantities for the bid list?
No estimated quantities are necessary for the purposes of completing the worksheet.
Additionally, there is no guarantee of business, and no estimated quantities available.
Q3. In Attachment 1 it seems there is an option to input pricing on items that are already described, while on Attachment 3 there is an option to fill out a blank product offering table.
Would both need to be completed to make the submittal viable or if we could fill out one or the other to describe our pricing.
Attachment A1 is required and must be completed as part of the bid submission. Attachment A3 is optional and may be used to provide pricing for additional products or offerings that fall within the ITB categories but are not specifically listed in Attachment A1.
Q4. Does the invitation to bid include audio visual equipment or instructional audio sound solutions for classrooms?
No. Audio visual equipment and instructional audio sound solutions for classrooms are not included within the scope of this ITB. Some of the categories include computer equipment and electronic storage, but no sound solutions beyond those items.
Q5. What qualifies as the business license?
For questions related specifically to business licensing, the State of Delaware Division of Revenue can provide assistance by phone, email, or through their website at https://onestop.delaware.gov/.
Q6. Also, the catalog discount items that we offer, are those prices to be netted out for the term of the contract as well? If they are to be netted out, will pricing adjustments be allowed on the cat discount items if there is a renewal?
Catalog discounts should remain fixed throughout the initial contract term. Any pricing adjustments may be considered during contract renewal periods, subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement.
Q7. Is free freight required on non-market basket items? (cat discount)
For non-market basket items offered under the contract through catalog pricing or an established market basket discount, the applicable shipping terms of the contract should apply.
If any items are excluded from the shipping requirements outlined in the Invitation to Bid (ITB), those exceptions should be clearly identified and disclosed.
All other terms and conditions remain the same.
