About this file

This Scope of Work document outlines the requirements for a State of Utah cooperative contract administered by the Division of Purchasing to provide breath alcohol testing devices and presumptive drug tests to eligible users, including state agencies, political subdivisions, schools, colleges, and other authorized entities. The contract encompasses four primary service categories: evidential breath alcohol testing devices (EBT), portable breath alcohol testing devices (PBT), presumptive drug tests for toxicology, and presumptive drug tests for colorimetric/surface analysis. All products must be new equipment accompanied by comprehensive training, maintenance, and support services. The contract term is five years, and contractors awarded in multiple categories may expand their offerings only within initially awarded categories. Breath alcohol testing devices must comply with Utah Administrative Rule R714-500 and appear on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's approved list, with minimum specifications including measurement capability from 0.00 to 0.60 grams per 210 liters of air, accuracy standards, breath flow monitoring, and quality assurance documentation. Portable devices must have 0.02 level accuracy and battery-powered capability. Toxicology drug tests must meet Department of Transportation minimum standards.

Pricing for all products and services must be detailed in Attachment C, with contractual prices guaranteed for at least 12 months. Authorized dealers may offer percentage discounts on specific brands or product categories, with such discounts guaranteed for the contract lifetime and representing minimum pricing levels. After the initial price guarantee period, contractors may request price increases supported by market analysis justification, subject to Division of Purchasing Contract Manager approval. New products or services may be added annually upon approval via contract amendment, though amendments are not required for additions based on manufacturer percentage discounts. Contractors cannot enforce minimum order quantities to receive stated pricing. Historical spending across the three predecessor portfolios ranged from approximately $1,500 to $540,000 annually, with primary usage by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, though cities, counties, and schools also made purchases. An administrative fee of 0.25 percent applies to the contract.
