EXHIBIT 1 – QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
1. On the facility service (flat good) items are you wanting us to price unit rates based off of a
delivered quantity billing scheme or full inventory billing scheme? Typically we do delivered
quantity billing on these, however some of the other vendors do full inventory billing. Please
provide clarification.
a. EX Delivered Bill:
$0.07 shop towel with 200 delivered weekly and total inventory of 400
.07 x 200 = $14.00/week
b. EX Full Bill:
$0.07 shop towel with 200 delivered weekly and total inventory of 400
.07 x 400 = $28.00/week
ANSWER: Please price your unit rates based on delivered billing.
2. Can we get a copy of the last bid that was awarded?
ANSWER – All public record documents regarding the last RFP are available
online at: https://citydocs.fcgov.com/?dn=PURCHASING&cmd=showdept
and filed under 7430 Uniform Rental or Leasing. Please note that the
requirements for the last RFP are not identical to those for this RFP.
3. Are we able to submit both a standard and premium option for the garments requested?
ANSWER: Yes
4. Some of the garments mentioned in the RFP do not hold up well through an industrial wash
process and we recommend a direct purchase on those. Is this something you would like us
to outline in the Proposal Submission?
a. For these couple items we can also offer a rental option, however there would be a
buyout on them in the event an individual was to exit the program due to the inability to
reissue them. We would identify these as “non-stock” on the proposal.
ANSWER: We are not interested in any direct purchase options.
5. On point F. when you mention “size changes for normal sizes” are you referring to all
standard garments that fall into the vendors specifications for “normal sizes”?
a. Outsize garments fluctuate vendor to vendor, would this be an additional piece of
information you would want included in the proposal from all vendors as it would affect
point F. size changes?
ANSWER: Please detail if outsized garments are subject to different pricing.
Additionally, we do not wish to pay for size changes for existing
employees who may go up or down in size over time.
