Attachment B Price Form.xlsx

This is a price form template file for the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services and related correctional facilities. The file contains instructional guidance for suppliers responding to requests for proposals (RFPs) and requests for quotations (RFQs) related to live plant and animal materials, animal feed, seeds, fertilizers, pest control products, minerals, textiles, chemicals, fuels, machinery, tools, building materials, and various other commodities and supplies. The document provides a comprehensive commodity classification system with detailed item codes and categories organized hierarchically, including specifications for field types, visibility settings, and fill rules that govern how suppliers must complete pricing grids. The template establishes that white and gray sections are completed by the buyer, while blue sections are reserved for supplier responses, with instructions that suppliers must not alter the file structure or any buyer-designated sections.

The price form template specifies that suppliers must enter responses only in designated empty fields and save the completed file to their computers before reattaching it through the required submission portal. The document serves as the framework for multiple procurement activities across Maryland Correctional Enterprises facilities, including the Brush and Carton Plant, Partition Plant, and Meat Plant at the Maryland Correctional Training Center and Maryland Correctional Institution in Hagerstown. The commodity codes reference various organizational units within the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, including regional detention centers, pre-release units, and administrative divisions. Suppliers responding to this RFx must adhere strictly to the prescribed format and field requirements to ensure their proposals are properly evaluated against the established commodity classifications and procurement criteria.
