The procurement requires net pricing including statewide delivery on a firm, fixed basis with FOB Destination terms, vendors must comply with E-Verify, HIPAA, background check, and insurance requirements with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, and all bidders must submit a VetHUB Subcontracting Plan with a state goal of 5.28 percent utilization. Historical compensation for similar contracts is $350,000 annually, though TWC reserves the right to adjust based on available funding with no guarantee of volume or usage. Texas bidders, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and vendors offering recycled or energy-efficient products may claim statutory preferences.
