About this file

This is an Exhibit D document from the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) agency detailing online bid room submission procedures for solicitation HHS0017689 related to Kitchen Equipment & Supplies for the Denton State Supported Living Center. The document outlines that bidders may submit responses electronically through the HHS Online Bid Room or through alternative submission methods identified in the primary solicitation package. Responses must be submitted in the form and manner specified in the solicitation package on or before the stated response due date and time. The document emphasizes that failure to adhere to submission requirements may result in disqualification, and bidders are instructed to review the complete solicitation package and associated documents carefully before submission. All questions regarding the solicitation should be directed to the Point of Contact identified in the solicitation package.

Access to the HHS Online Bid Room requires a multi-step registration process through IAMOnline. Prospective bidders must request an account as a non-HHS employee or register their organization, with external user IDs established using an email address. Once an Agency Sponsor approves the access request, users receive an IAMOnline registration email with a seven-day activation window for security purposes. Notably, applicants with prior access to the Enterprise Portal or IAMOnline must complete a new registration using a different email address, as the system does not permit duplicate email addresses across accounts. The document stresses that the registration process may require several days, and bidders should allocate sufficient time to complete registration before the response deadline, as late submissions are not accepted. Technical difficulties with the optional online bid room do not constitute grounds for protest of a contract award. Additional support is available through the Help Desk at 512-438-4720 or 855-435-7181 (toll-free), Monday through Friday, 7:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M., Central Time.

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.

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.

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 multi-step process.

All Online Bid Room Users:

• Follow the provided link to access the IAMOnline – Sign-in page.

• Next, click the link labeled “Request account as a non-HHS employee or register organization” to request a new account. Please note, the external user ID should be an email address.

• Users can find detailed instructions here; Follow the organization or external user account request steps as directed.

• Once the Agency Sponsor receives and approves the access request, users will receive an IAMOnline registration email to set up their IAMOnline account.

• The user will click the Activate Account button to set up their account promptly. Please note that the link will only be active for seven (7) days for security reasons.

Note: Applicants who already have access to the previous Enterprise Portal and/or IAMOnline 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 IAMOnline portal does not allow the same email address to be used for two different accounts.

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.
