About this file

This addendum to Bid Invitation #2901-24 issued by the State of New Hampshire's Division of Procurement and Support Services addresses clarifications regarding a three-year supply and delivery contract for linens, blankets, sheets, towels, and miscellaneous items destined for state agencies including the Department of Corrections, New Hampshire Hospital, NH Veteran's Home, and Glencliff Home. The solicitation encompasses 18 distinct product line items with hospital-quality textile specifications. The bid closing date is April 16, 2024, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, with the contract commencing July 1, 2024, or upon execution by the Commissioner of Administrative Services, continuing for approximately three years with an option to extend for an additional two years. Orders will be made as needed by the designated agencies with no minimum order quantity requirement, and delivery must be fulfilled within five business days of order placement.

This addendum clarifies that bidders must submit pricing for all 18 products rather than selected items, as award will be made based on lowest total cost while meeting established specifications and delivery performance criteria including a 95% on-time delivery rate and 90% fill rate. Thermal blankets must be manufactured in the U.S. only. Pricing shall be F.O.B. Destination with no additional charges permitted. The estimated annual spend is approximately $72,622.55, with the most recent contract award to Acme Supply Co., LTD valued at $217,867.65 for the three-year term. Vendors must maintain comprehensive general liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, along with workers' compensation insurance as required by New Hampshire law. Current vendor pricing information is available through the state's public records at the referenced link.
