About this file

This document is an addendum to a solicitation (Solicitation No. 405-24R0006342) issued by the Department of Public Safety Procurement and Contract Services in the state of Texas. The purpose of this addendum is to provide answers to submitted questions and to extend the deadline for submitting bids from 8/1/2024 to 8/2/2024. The solicitation is seeking a standalone software module that can integrate with the existing JusticeTrax LIMS-plus software and automate forensic sample processing specifically for the Crime Lab's DNA Program. The addendum clarifies that HUB subcontracting is not required for this solicitation, and that contractors must specify any additional or recurring costs in their response. It also provides details on the required insurance coverage, which must be sufficient to cover all claims against the contractor as well as any costs the agency might incur.

The pricing schedule included in the solicitation does not have a row for annual recurring maintenance/subscription pricing, so contractors must specify any such costs in their response. The addendum also confirms that data migration is not needed for this contract.
