About this file

This document is an exhibit detailing the use of the HHS Online Bid Room for the procurement of Atlantic ReadyDisk HC-C18 by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) and the Department of State Health Services (DSHS). The agencies have issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the testing of drinking water samples using EPA methods 525.2 and 508.1. The IFB includes a procurement schedule with a response deadline of November 15, 2024, and an anticipated contract start date of November 18, 2024, with an initial term through August 31, 2025, and an option to extend for up to one additional year.

The IFB outlines pricing requirements, including a fixed price structure and allowances for price adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index. While the submission of a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Subcontracting Plan is not required, HHSC encourages Bidders to consider subcontracting opportunities with HUB vendors. The solicitation does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, but it does outline preferences for Texas-based businesses, recycled products, energy-efficient items, and vendors that meet air quality standards. The pricing sheet included in the solicitation package does not indicate any award values or budget ranges.

Exhibit D HHS Online Bid Room Information

HHS0015578

Bids/responses for this Invitation for Bids may be submitted electronically using the HHS Online Bid Room or any other method identified in the solicitation. Use of the HHS Online Bid Room is optional and is subject to all terms and conditions, affirmations, and other requirements of the solicitation as any other method of submission.

Read and review the solicitation package and all associated documents carefully before completing and submitting a response in the form and manner described in the solicitation package. The XML Price Sheet, if required, and signed documentation must be submitted with the response.

Questions regarding the solicitation must be addressed to the Point of Contact in the solicitation package. The Point of Contact is identified in the solicitation package.

Submit the solicitation response in the form and manner described in the solicitation package on or before the response due date and time.

IMPORTANT: The solicitation package will identify the specific form and method of delivery. Failure to adhere to the requirements in the solicitation package may result in disqualification.

Access to the HHS Online Bid Room is a two-step process.

Step 1: Register for the Enterprise Portal using the Enterprise Portal Link. It can take up to five business days to receive your username and password. If you do not receive this information within five days, email pcsbids@hhsc.state.tx.us.

Note: Applicants who already have access to the Enterprise Portal for other applications, must complete a new registration to receive access to the online bid room. The new registration must be completed with a different email than the original account as the Enterprise Portal does not allow the same email address to be used for two different accounts.

Step 2: Using the Enterprise Portal login credentials you will receive via email, you can request the necessary HHS Online Bid Room username and password to enter the HHS Online Bid Room to submit your response to the solicitation electronically.

See our resources page for a tutorial, guidebook, and other resources to help you use the HHS Online Bid Room.

IMPORTANT: The registration process may take several days. Allow enough time for the registration process to submit your bid by the response due date. Late solicitation responses are not accepted.

The optional use of the HHS Online Bid Room and any resulting technical difficulties which may prevent a successful, responsive electronic submission of a solicitation response shall not be sufficient basis for a protest of a contract award.
