Subject: Clarification Questions – ITB 27-0077-TLG Lighting Supplies Hello, Thank you for inviting PRIMELEDLIGHT to participate in ITB 27-0077-TLG – Lighting Supplies. We are very interested in submitting a bid and would appreciate clarification on the following items: 1. 25-Mile Location Requirement Our current warehouse is approximately 37 miles from the Maintenance Department at 1 Matzke Way, Bradenton. We can meet the solicitation requirement to deliver orders directly to School District locations within 48 hours of receipt of an order. Would PRIMELEDLIGHT still be eligible for an award if we can guarantee the required 48-hour delivery time despite our current warehouse being approximately 37 miles away? We are also considering relocating our warehouse closer to the Bradenton area. 2. LED Replacements for Fluorescent Lamps The pricing schedule includes several fluorescent lamps, including T8, T12 and compact fluorescent products. Would the District accept an equivalent plug-and-play LED replacement lamp in place of a specified fluorescent lamp, provided the LED replacement is compatible with the existing fixture/ballast, meets or exceeds the required performance, and manufacturer specifications and supporting documentation are provided? If acceptable, should we enter the proposed LED manufacturer/model in the “Manufacturer`s Name and Model Number” column and identify it as an LED equivalent? 3. Site Visit Would it be possible for PRIMELEDLIGHT to arrange a site visit to the Maintenance Department and/or an applicable School District facility before submitting our bid? A site visit would help us better understand the District`s existing lighting inventory, commonly used lamps and fixtures, delivery requirements, recycling procedures, and overall lighting-supply needs so that we can provide the most appropriate products and pricing. Thank you for your assistance. We look forward to the opportunity to work with the School District of Manatee County. Best regards, Rocky Benslimane	9/29/2026 11:39:25 AM
