About this file
This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing for the Department of Public Safety, solicitation number LD19052, seeking Hepatitis A, B, and Tuberculosis vaccination services. The procurement aims to facilitate immunization baseline checks and complete required vaccinations for Department of Public Safety (DPS) employees potentially exposed to these diseases during interactions with the homeless population, particularly following Operation Rio Grande. The solicitation was open from 4/23/2019 to 5/6/2019, with an anticipated contract duration of five years. The state expects to award multiple contracts based on the lowest bid per region submission.
The procurement approach allows bidders to specify which regions they are willing to serve, with the contract methodology focused on finding the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The background indicates that a review of records revealed insufficient vaccination coverage for the majority of DPS employees, necessitating this comprehensive vaccination procurement. Bidders must meet various prerequisites, including maintaining applicable licenses, providing company information, and understanding submission requirements. The solicitation includes provisions for potential technological upgrades and allows for modification of maintenance or service agreements to incorporate new technologies specific to the procurement item.

Background
With the advent of Operation Rio Grande and the Department of Public Safety’s key role in this operation, potential exposure to infectious diseases increased as UHP troopers and SBI agents interacted more closely and regularly with the homeless population. In order to mitigate any potential exposure to certain diseases, it is essential for DPS to ensure that employees who have the potential to be exposed to are properly vaccinated to prevent them from contracting these diseases. Examination of records revealed that proper vaccination was lacking for the majority of DPS employees.
