QUESTIONS
1. Question: The bid form again states that the base bid is to be transferred to the bidder’s
blank form. Is this correct, or are we transferring the total (including supplement) to the
bidder’s blank? If it is the total, can you revise the bid form to reflect this in the
addendum? Last time it was clarified in the addendum Q&A section to write the total bid,
but the revised bid form in the addendum kept the incorrect language in there stating to
transfer the base bid.
a. Answer: Transfer the Total Base Bid plus Supplemental to Section 001000 Bid
Form 1 Bidder’s Blank (Page 7 of 30) under “Total Amount in Writing and Total
Amount in Figures”.
