About this file
This document is a No Bid/Proposal Notice and Vendor Feedback Form issued by the State of Maryland for a Laboratories Administration Courier Services contract. The solicitation requests scheduled pick-up, transport, and delivery of laboratory coolers, supplies, human diagnostic specimens, environmental samples, and mail between the Central Laboratory at 1770 Ashland Ave. in Baltimore and clinics located in Regions A through F according to specified courier schedules. The form does not specify response dates, due dates, site visits, bidder's meetings, award dates, or contract terms; instead, it functions as a feedback mechanism for vendors who choose not to submit a proposal or who wish to provide suggestions and concerns regarding the solicitation.
The form provides vendors with a standardized list of reasons for non-participation, including other commitments, lack of relevant experience, unclear or restrictive specifications, capacity constraints, complexity of doing business with the State, inability to be competitive, insufficient time for completion or start-up, restrictive bonding or insurance requirements, unreasonable bid requirements, MBE or VSBE requirements, prior unsatisfactory contract experience with Maryland, and slow payment schedules. Vendors are instructed to return the completed form to the Procurement Officer listed on the Key Information Summary Sheet. The document does not address pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, funding sources, or amounts. This form was effective as of July 2024 and is designed to improve the quality and responsiveness of State solicitations through vendor input.
