CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION OF DIGITAL SIGNS

The City of East Orange is actively seeking qualified contractors for a significant municipal project involving the construction and installation of digital signs. This document serves as Addendum #2 to the original solicitation, which was initially advertised in the Newark Star Ledger on Thursday, November 5, 2020. The comprehensive scope of work for this project encompasses the complete construction, installation, and integration of advanced digital signage infrastructure throughout the city, aimed at modernizing public communication and enhancing municipal aesthetics and functionality. This initiative represents a key upgrade to the city's public information systems. Prospective bidders were required to attend a Pre-proposal Conference, which took place on November 18, 2020, to address any questions and clarify project specifications. While this specific addendum does not reiterate detailed contractor qualifications, licenses (such as NJ Public Works Contractor Registration), or experience requirements, these are understood to be mandatory prerequisites outlined in the primary bid documents, in adherence to local public contract law. Answers to all questions posed during the aforementioned pre-proposal conference are publicly available and can be accessed by all interested parties on the City of East Orange’s official website: www.eastorange-nj.gov. This Addendum #2 primarily communicates a critical revision to the bidding timeline: the Proposal Submission Deadline has been officially rescheduled. All proposals are now due by Friday, December 4, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. This adjustment was necessitated by time constraints associated with local public contract law. Bidders are reminded to submit their proposals punctually and in accordance with all specified instructions in the complete bid package. For any additional questions or concerns related to this solicitation, parties are advised to contact Lisa L. Jackson directly at (973) 266-5162. No information regarding bid security, performance bonds, or specific submission formats beyond the deadline is provided in this addendum.
