Northeast Digital Integrators
Northeast Digital Integrators quote starts at $33,464.00. It is not clear if this quote addresses all
items contained in the RFP. We were not able to fairly evaluate this proposal as there are no
vendor names, model numbers or part numbers to be able to compare between bidders. This
proposal also specifies shipping “TBD”. If we consider the shipping charge of $815 from the
CCS proposal as comparable it brings Northeast Digital Integrators proposal to a total of
approximately $34,279.00
CCS Presentation Systems:
This quote totals $35,553.68, including shipping. This quote is written in three parts. It addresses
all items contained in the RFP, with some controllers encased in metal enclosures. The yearly
service plan for CCS is an option included in the above quote. CCS Presentation Systems is
located here in Nashua. CCS Presentation Systems bid includes some of the components
specified in one of the more expensive bids. CCS Presentation Systems in our opinion is the
lowest qualified bid.
