This document is an Addendum 1 for Request for Quotation (RFQ) WEH2500000019 for the Laboratory Department, seeking temporary staffing services. The solicitation is for a continuation of existing temporary staffing services with an average assignment length of thirteen weeks and an option to renew. Vendors are required to bid on all positions, and the contract will be a progressive award with multiple vendors, beginning with the vendor with the lowest total bid and proceeding to the highest. The current vendors are Worldwide Travel Staffing and Saunders Staffing, and the solicitation indicates this is a new RFQ for existing services.

The pricing for this contract currently stands at $71.99 for Regular Hours and $107.00 for Overtime/Holiday Hours, with vendors only required to provide pricing with their bid. Prior to award, vendors will need to complete several documents including a Federally Funds Addendum, WV HIPAA BAA, DoHS Exempt TCA, and DoHS Purchasing Affidavit. No Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) positions are involved, and the solicitation emphasizes that only pricing information is needed during the bidding process. The duration of staffing shifts will be determined by laboratory department needs, with current lab staff working 8- and 10-hour shifts.
