Will the vendor have to pick up existing AED’s from multiple locations?

No, we will have all existing AEDs consolidated at one location for pick up. This will be the same address we would like the AED’s delivered

Will the customer ship old AEDs?

No, we will have all existing AEDs consolidated at one location for pick up.

Is the customer asking for credit for taking the old AEDs?

Yes we would like a credit.

What type of units and an accurate count of the units?

Units are (17) Cardiac Science G3. We do also have (7) Zoll AED Plus. Pictures are attached. We would just like to know what you are offering per unit for credit. Please base credit amount off these numbers.

Are housing units damaged or in good shape?

All are in working condition. Most have expired batteries. There is no damage to any of the units

The unit comes with only 1 set of Adult pads from the manufacturer but you are asking for 2 sets per AED?

We want an additional set of AED PADS with each AED. Each AED should have 2 sets of PADS. We also want 10 extra sets to keep on hand

There is no line for additional cost for shipping

The government does not pay shipping.

If I win the bid I will need a tax exempt form completed by the end user in case I am audited by the tax commission.

A tax exempt certificate will be provided to the winner.

Is there a Disabled Veteran preference?

No there is not for this procurement.

Do the surface cabinets need to have an alarm or have an alarm with strobe light or neither?

We do require that they have an alarm. We will accept alarm and strobe.

Will you accept pre-paid FedEx or UPS labels to ship the old AEDs?

We will accept pre-paid labels.

Will the government seek a dual-language solution?

No

The new G5 AEDs only come with pads called iCPR pads that provide for additional CPR help. The original G5 AEDs came with regular adult pads that do not provide the additional CPR help. These original G5 AED packages have been discontinued and are now only sold with the iCPR pads, which is a more expensive package than the original G5 AEDs. I just wanted to verify whether you’re looking for the original G5 AED package without the iCPR pads or the newer G5 package with iCPR pads.

We will accept either as long as all are the same. Trainers included.

In attachment 1, section 2 it states that the vendor is responsible for the removal of the current AED’s. Is the Vendor also responsible for the installation of the new ones?

Negative. All existing AEDs will be in a consolidated location. The government will install all new equipment.
