About this file

The document is a Draft Bid Price Form for a Garment Rental and Laundry Service contract issued by the Maryland Department of Health Laboratories Administration. The procurement is a five-year contract from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2030, seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive garment services for its central laboratory facilities in Baltimore City. The contract requires supplying and managing 606 lab coats annually for approximately 202 employees, with each employee receiving three coats and an additional 20 unassigned supply coats. Bids are due by April 11, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST and must be submitted electronically through eMMA, with the contract to be awarded to the most favorable (lowest cost) responsive and responsible bidder.

The bid form requires full pricing transparency, with all costs including labor, profit, overhead, and administrative expenses to be fully loaded into the weekly per-garment rate. The solicitation emphasizes strict handling protocols for laboratory garments, requiring vendors to demonstrate expertise in managing apparel with universal precautions and safety standards. Bidders must provide lab coats meeting specific ASTM standards for fluid repellency, air permeability, and fabric characteristics. The procurement encourages participation from minority business enterprises and includes provisions for potential renewal at the state's discretion. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the service suggests a substantial multi-year contract value, targeting vendors with specialized experience in scientific workplace garment services.
