Bid Solicitation

Section Reference Question (Bolded) and Answer

Where applicable, each question references the appropriate Bid Solicitation section.

1
Section 3.6.1
When an item shows a range, $14-16 for example. Which number governs? The $14, the $16 or would they be averaged at $15?

I understand then an upcharge or downcharge would then be applied to this price. I was just unclear about which price governs.

Answer: Per the revised Bid Solicitation Section 3.6.1, if there is a range in pricing for any given item, the high end of the range will be utilized to calculate the daily pricing.

Bid Solicitation Section 3.6.1 states, in part: “The price the State pays per delivered container of fresh produce will be determined by adding the Up Charge or subtracting the Down Charge awarded for each Blanket P.O. price line item to the daily Philadelphia Terminal Market Index price for each price line item. If there is a range in pricing for any given item, the high end of the range will be utilized for the daily pricing.”

Please see revisions to the Bid Solicitation titled “T1353 Revised Bid Solicitation November 10, 2021.”
