About this file
This is Amendment 1 to solicitation DOH26-003P issued by the Washington State Department of Health on December 12th, 2025, addressing vendor questions and updating contract terms for newborn screening cards. The contract supports the Office of Newborn Screening, which provides testing services for infants born in Washington, Hawaii, and Idaho using dried blood spot specimens collected on specialized medical filter paper cards. The solicitation includes five distinct card kits and related hearing screening test inserts. The contract term is one year with four renewal options available. The amendment clarifies that the ID Single card has been added to the bid pricing exhibit, establishes minimum order quantities for each card type, and specifies that pricing submissions should reflect costs for the first year only.
The amendment modifies pricing terms to allow annual price updates during the four renewal years, with adjustments calculated using the Consumer Price Index for Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue data released in July, subject to DOH approval. All bidders must submit inclusive pricing that encompasses all cost elements without additional charges, regardless of payment method—whether cash, credit card, or electronic payment. Bidders must bear all processing or surcharge fees associated with credit card or electronic payment options. The updated Exhibit C Bid Price document, referenced as "Exhibit C Bid Price Amend," contains the minimum order quantities for each card and should be used for all bid pricing submissions. All other terms and conditions of the original solicitation remain unchanged.
