08/07/2026

Q1: After reviewing the pricing sheet do you still want us to add a cost for the site visit, or can we just delete the line item?

A1: It is the vendor's/quoter's discretion. We anticipate issuing a Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order. The provided list was just illustrative and was provided solely as guidance to assist vendors in understanding the anticipated scope of work. It did not constitute a government-directed methodology or an exhaustive list of the Contractor’s required means and methods. Vendors may quote an alternative approach, methodology, equipment, materials, labor, or sequence of performance, provided the proposed solution meets all requirements of the SOW. The Contractor’s quotation shall reflect the Contractor’s own approach and solution for accomplishing the required work. The SOW remains the controlling document for the required performance and deliverables.

Q2: Top Hat or Cables to run from the top of the new cabinet to the existing cabinets?

A2: The cables to the new cabinet run underneath the raised floor, not across the top. There is no exception.  

All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
