This is Amendment No. 1 to a competitive solicitation issued by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) for Oleo services at a Corpus Christi location under Bid No. IW236164. The amendment provides clarifications to bidder inquiries regarding the procurement scope and timeline. The solicitation is structured as a one-time purchase order rather than an ongoing contract with renewal options. The original bid opening was scheduled for December 3, 2025, at 3:00 PM. Bidders were required to acknowledge receipt of this amendment in their bid submission to ensure consideration. The TDCJ Contracts and Procurement Department, under contract specialist Daton Splawn, managed this solicitation.

The amendment clarifies that this represents the first competitive bid for Oleo at this particular TDCJ location, as other locations are procured through existing Texas SmartBuy contracts. The procurement is structured as a single delivery order with no anticipated future purchases or contract renewals. Bidders were instructed to provide pricing based on current brand and cost information, though the amendment does not disclose specific pricing terms, set-aside provisions, or funding amounts. The ESBD (Environmentally Sensitive Business District) certification component referenced in related documentation may provide preferential consideration for qualified vendors. All bidders were required to monitor the Electronic State Business Daily for additional amendments and verify receipt of complete solicitation documents prior to the December 3, 2025, deadline.
