The RFQ mandates that only specified bulb types be offered, with strict requirements for compatibility with existing systems like the Lutron Lighting Control System.
The items listed include various fluorescent and LED bulbs, with a minimum quantity listed in the attached pricing template. Vendors have the option to propose tier-based discounts for larger orders. Delivery requirements specify that materials must arrive on pallets of limited dimensions. Responses are due by March 18, 2025, and must include a price validity of at least 90 days. The RFQ outlines all pertinent details, including submission instructions and deadlines, showcasing the government's intent to facilitate procurement while ensuring quality and compliance with established standards.
