ADDENDUM #1

ISSUED: February 20, 2026

QUESTION & ANSWER

Vendor Questions:

Montgomery College Answers:

Would you consider a service model where

freight is billed separately from the item cost?

Is there opportunity to negotiate how price

adjustments are handled, or the process

outlined in 1.18 the preferred model?

Is there a preference in the scoring for local /

diverse companies?

Will the awardee of this contract receive a

preferred status for projects outside direct

scope outlined in this RFP?

If I could ask a separate more informal question

– I saw that someone else asked about the ﬁrm 5

days for item delivery. I’m assuming many

people will ask about that, as it would be tough

for any company in our industry. Is that

absolutely going to stay as a ﬁnal

requirement? Or is there a chance you will

extend? 10-12 days would seem more realistic

from our end.

As the solicitation specifies a required delivery

timeframe of five (5) business days, we would

like to confirm whether our proposal would

still be considered if our minimum delivery

time is ten (10) business days, given that this is

an as-needed contract. We would like to

assure you that we can fully meet all technical

specifications and provide all required website

services at no additional cost. Charges would

apply only to the ordered products as

proposed in our bid.

We are submitting as a prime bidder and

intend to utilize subcontractors for certain

Requested pricing shall be inclusive of

shipping/freight costs.

No. Price adjustments must adhere to section

1.18 of the RFP.

Awardee would be considered, where

possible, as long as outside projects are

directly related to the scope outlined in the

RFP.

The delivery requirement has been changed to

10 days.

See above answer.

Refer to section 1.8 (Sub-contractors) of the

RFP.
