Question 4
Posted: 7/7/2021
Question: On the price sheet, 50-63, 66, 67, 74-86 refer to "attached details" which are assumed to be spec sheets of these products. However, there were only 1 set of spec sheets attached to the RFP. Can the City provide all the other spec sheets referenced?
Response: I will issue a response after conferring with my team. Any additional specs that are added will be completed through the Addendum process.
Question 5
Posted: 7/7/2021
Question: Is it required to for the vendors to quote on all items? Can we skip or provide "no quote" any products?
Response: It is always in the City's best interest to secure the most competitive pricing and from an administrative perspective award the fewest contracts for the scope/specifications needed. For those reasons we prefer that the price sheet be completed comprehensively and if you do not offer the specific product mark the price sheet in EACH of those item(s) as No Bid. DO NOT LEAVE IT BLANK.
Question 6

Question: What quantity needs to be quoted for Item #55?
Response: An Addendum to the price sheet will correct this. Please be on the lookout for the forthcoming Addendum 1.
Question 7
Posted: 7/9/2021
Question: Bid item #87: In reference to detail A1710, on note #10 on the spec it shows the location of the (4) knockouts on the short sides, but we would need to know the locations for the (6) knockouts called for on the long sides. Can you advise?
Response: I will have an answer to you momentarily.
Question 8
Posted: 7/14/2021
Question: Regarding tax calculations: Should the tax to be charged be included on the specific line item for the product? For instance, if item #1 is $1 with a tax rate of 9%, should we enter a price of $1.09 each? Or just enter $1 and add tax at time of invoice?
Response: Please provide pricing without taxes. The last section of the Price Sheet provides a place for you to provide the tax rate to be applied at the time of invoice.
