Bid Amendment #5

The following constitutes Bid Amendment #5 to the above referenced Bid Solicitation:

· This Bid Amendment extends the Quote Submission due date from August 29, 2025 to September 12, 2025 (2:00 p.m. Eastern Time); and

· This Bid Amendment includes the answer to Question #35 from Bid Amendment #4, which was not included in Bid Amendment #4 due to a clerical error. Please refer to Bid Amendment #4 for all other answers to questions from the Electronic Question and Answer Period.

It is the sole responsibility of the Bidder to be knowledgeable of all of the additions, deletions, clarifications, and modifications to the Bid Solicitation and/or the New Jersey Standard Terms and Conditions relative to this Bid Solicitation as set forth in all Bid Amendments.

All other instructions, terms, and conditions of the Bid Solicitation shall remain the same.

Bid Solicitation #24DPP01041 T3103 – Program Administrator – Resilience Planning Projects Answers to Questions

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

Section Reference Question (Bolded) and Answer

Section 3.27 – State-Supplied Price Sheet Instructions

Section 4.1.3 – Document Translation and In-Person and Remote Interpretation Services

Section 4.3.1 - Required Disciplines and Experience

Section 4.7.2 – Document Translation and In-Person and Remote Interpretation Services Typically, for this breadth of scope, a Translation Firm is used instead of a Translator/Interpreter. Translation Firms typically work on a price per page per language rather than an hourly rate. Can the qualifications of the Translation Firm be provided in the Technical proposal along with a price sheet as an attachment to the State Supplied Price Sheet?

Document translation services are no longer included under Price Line 14 of the Revised State-Supplied Price Sheet, as this hourly rate price line is now specific to In-Person & Virtual Translator/Interpreter services. If needed, document translation services and any associated pricing will be identified separately as part of the Mini-bid process.

Please refer to Sections 4.1.3, 4.3.1, and 4.7.2 of the Revised Bid Solicitation, as well as the Revised State-Supplied Price Sheet, as these documents have been revised.

The Bidder must only submit the Revised State-Supplied Price Sheet with its Quote. No additional price sheets are permitted. The Bidder may submit information regarding its plans to provide document translation services as part of its Quote, but information and pricing for these services will be requested during the Mini-bid process on an engagement by engagement basis.
