This is Amendment No. 1 to bid solicitation IW258288 issued by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Contracts and Procurement Department for the procurement of assorted-flavor jelly packets in individual portion packs to be delivered to the Snyder Distribution Center in Snyder, Texas. The bid opening is scheduled for July 27, 2026, at 3:00 PM. The amendment modifies specifications on the original solicitation, and all bidders must acknowledge receipt of this amendment in their bid submissions, either on the face of the bid or by returning a signed copy of the amendment notice, or their bids may not receive consideration.

Bidders must hold a Texas Identification Number and Federal Employer Identification Number prior to contract award and comply with E-Verify requirements, debarment and suspension verification, and child support obligation affirmations. Unit pricing must remain firm for 30 days from the response due date. TDCJ reserves the right to make awards based on low line-item response, low total of line items, or any combination serving the state's best interest. Pricing and benefits must be at least as favorable as those granted to any previous client for similar products, with any more favorable terms discovered during the contract term made available to TDCJ upon written request. Freight is F.O.B. destination, prepaid and allowed. The resulting contract may be extended up to three months at TDCJ's sole discretion and may be terminated for convenience with 30 calendar days' written notice with no penalty, or without penalty based on non-appropriation of funds or legislative action.
