About this file
This document is an Exhibit D guide for the HHS Online Bid Room submission process for solicitation HHS0017722 issued by the Texas Health and Human Services agency. The exhibit provides detailed instructions for bidders to electronically submit responses through the HHS Online Bid Room portal, though submission through this method is optional and subject to all terms and conditions outlined in the solicitation package. Bidders must carefully review the complete solicitation package before submitting responses and adhere strictly to the specific form and method of delivery requirements identified in the solicitation; failure to comply may result in disqualification. The submission must be completed by the response due date and time specified in the solicitation package, with late submissions not accepted under any circumstances.
Access to the HHS Online Bid Room requires a multi-step registration process through the IAMOnline portal, beginning with requesting a new account using an email address as the external user ID and proceeding through organization or external user account approval by an Agency Sponsor. Users who have previously accessed the Enterprise Portal or IAMOnline for other applications must complete a new registration using a different email address, as the system does not permit duplicate email addresses across multiple accounts. The registration process may require several days; therefore, bidders are advised to allow adequate time for completion before the response deadline. The Help Desk is available at 512-438-4720 or 855-435-7181 (toll-free) from 7:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. Central Time, Monday through Friday, to assist with technical issues. Technical difficulties or failures resulting from optional use of the HHS Online Bid Room are not valid grounds for protesting a contract award.

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.
