About this file

This document is Exhibit D providing online bid room information for the Health and Human Services Commission (HHS) of Texas for an electronic bidding process. The document details the optional electronic submission process through the HHS Online Bid Room, which requires vendors to complete a two-step registration process involving the Enterprise Portal. Vendors must register and obtain credentials within five business days, with specific instructions to use a different email address if previously registered. The solicitation requires electronic submission of XML Price Sheets and signed documentation by the specified response due date, with failure to adhere to submission requirements potentially resulting in disqualification.

The bid submission process emphasizes careful review of the solicitation package and associated documents, with questions directed to the designated Point of Contact identified in the solicitation materials. Technical difficulties during electronic submission will not be grounds for contract award protest. Vendors are strongly cautioned to allow sufficient time for the registration process to ensure timely bid submission, as late responses will not be accepted. The document provides resources including tutorials and guidebooks to assist vendors in navigating the online bid room submission process, with a version date of 03/01/2024 indicating recent updates to the bidding procedures.

Exhibit D HHS Online Bid Room Information <Enter Procurement Number>

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.
