Answers to Questions

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

Note: These questions have been paraphrased in the interest of readability and clarity.

Section Reference Question (Bolded) and Answer

A: Please be advised that all Quotes shall be submitted electronically through NJSTART.

A: Yes. Prior to the Quote Opening Deadline, a Bidder should review the documents comprising the submitted Quote to ensure that all of the required documents have been completed and attached. Oftentimes a Quote is deemed non-responsive because a Bidder fails to attach a required form or attaches a blank form. To review a submitted Quote, a Bidder should log into NJSTART and review each document attached to the Quote submission. Instructions on how to review a submitted Quote can be found in the Quick Reference Guide entitled How to Review a Submitted Quote, which is available on the NJSTART Vendor Support Page under Vendor Reference Guides.

A: It is recommended that users utilize Microsoft Edge to view PDFs. Certain PDF forms cannot be opened in the Chrome or Firefox built in PDF viewers that are enabled by default. If using Chrome or Firefox it is recommended that the file is downloaded instead by clicking the download button in the upper right-hand corner of the browser after an error message is received. An alternative option is to disable the built in PDF viewers in Chrome or Firefox.

A: As stated in Bid Solicitation Section 2.2, Exceptions to the State of NJ Standard Terms and Conditions (SSTC): “Questions regarding the State of New Jersey Standard Terms and Conditions and exceptions to mandatory requirements MUST be posed during the Electronic Question and Answer period and shall contain the Bidder’s suggested changes and the reason(s) for the suggested change(s).” Moreover, as stated in Bid Solicitation Section 3.11, Bidder proposed terms or conditions that conflict with those contained in the State of New Jersey Standard Terms and Conditions may render a Quote non-responsive.

Quote Submission Requirements Q. When submitting a Quote through NJSTART, may I utilize symbols in the filename or upload files via .zip, .numbers, or .pages?

A. No, Bidders shall not utilize symbols in file name or upload files via .zip, .numbers, or .pages when submitting a Quote through NJSTART

For reference, Section 3.1, Quote Submission, of the Bid Solicitation, states, in part:

“When submitting a Quote through NJSTART, do not use any symbols (i.e., #, @, $, &, *) in the filename as this may prevent the Quote from being properly uploaded. Uploaded files must be compatible with Microsoft Office and/or Adobe software applications. DO NOT UPLOAD files with extensions such as .zip, .numbers, or .pages.”

A: No. The State will not add line items or otherwise modify the State‑supplied Price Sheet at the request of a Bidder.

State-Supplied Price Sheet Q: Can annual quantities be provided for each Price Line within the State-Supplied Price Sheet ?

A: No, overall, the State cannot provide annual quantities for each Price Line on the State-Supplied Price Sheet.

Please be advised that pursuant to Bid Solicitation Section 3.36, State-Supplied Price Sheet which states,“…There is no guaranteed minimum or maximum volume for these Price Line.” The State does not guarantee a minimum or maximum quantity through the life of the Contract.

State-Supplied Price Sheet Q: Within the State-Supplied Price Sheet, Row 23 and 24 denote “Cost Per Page” for the unit of measure. Should this be a “Cost Per Sheet”?

A. No, Price Line 23 and Price Line 24 should not incorporate a “Cost Per Sheet” unit of measure.

The “Cost Per Page” unit of measure for Price Line 23 and Price Line 24 will remain unchanged on the State-Supplied Price sheet. This is because the term “page” can refer to either simplex (1-sided) or duplex (2-sided) printing.
