The District is clarifying the requested Internet Service Bandwidths.

adds to, deletes from, clarifies or otherwise modifies them. All other conditions shall remain unchanged.
 
There is a clerical error on page five of the RFP.
 
Bandwidth should read 5Gbps up to 40Gbps.
Increments should be: 5Gbps, 6Gbps, 7Gbps, 10Gbps, 20Gbps and 40Gbps.
 
The bid form on page 18 of the RFP is correct with no changes needed.
 
Question Responses:
RFP 23-100:
    • Does Rocklin USD want the bidder to provision the service as VLAN, where we build the point to point vlan connections, or will we hand it off as a port based connection and Rocklin will implement their own VLAN routing/design?
Our current provider provides the routers and hardware at every site.  They create a sectioned off area of their network that we as a District live in.  We in turn create VLANs for each site internally.  These details are located on pages 5-6 of the RFP
 
RFP 23-101:
  • Is Rocklin USD open to accepting bids under the CA State Master Contract - Comcast CalNet Data Networks and Communications Services (DNCS)?
Rocklin Unified accepts all bids that align with the requirements set forth in the posted RFP
