RECEIPT OF THIS ADDENDUM MUST BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY A WRITTEN STATEMENT ENCLOSED WITH THE BID/QUOTE STATING THAT THIS ADDENDUM HAS BEEN RECEIVED. Financial Services Purchasing Division 215 N. Mason St. 2nd Floor PO Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 970.221.6775 970.221.6707 fcgov.com/purchasing Addendum 1 Page 2 of 2 EXHIBIT 1 – QUESTIONS & ANSWERS 1. Is this RFP for on-call dependent care services for a brand-new program to be offered to employees? If not, who is your current provider? And why is the current program being considered for replacement? This is an existing program that has been offered for over a decade (Sec Section I, Paragraph B – Background). Currently, The Family Care Connection is providing these services. City Code limits contract terms to 5 year s. Any program/project with an annual cost over $60,000 is subject to a formal solicitation process at least every 5 years. Increased utilization of this program over the last 5 years has resulted in the annual cost that requires a formal RFP process as we approach the end of the current agreement’s life. 2. The RFP states that it is on one-year periods. Is there an opportunity to extend to longer terms of up to three years? The City is willing to consider a longer term, but the term may not exceed 5 years per City Code limitations.
