About this file

This file is an exhibit from the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) agency outlining procedures for submitting bids and responses through the HHS Online Bid Room for solicitation HHS0017836, which pertains to a Mosquito Control Aerial Spraying contract opportunity in Texas. The document specifies that electronic submission via the HHS Online Bid Room is optional and that all submissions must comply with the requirements and deadlines identified in the complete solicitation package. Prospective bidders must follow a multi-step registration process beginning with accessing the IAMOnline sign-in page, requesting a new external user account using an email address, and awaiting approval from the Agency Sponsor before receiving an IAMOnline registration email. The activation link provided in the registration email remains valid for only seven days for security purposes. The document emphasizes that bidders should allow adequate time for the registration process, which may take several days, to ensure timely submission by the response due date, as late submissions are not accepted.

The document establishes that technical difficulties or delays encountered during the optional online submission process do not constitute grounds for protesting a contract award. Applicants with existing access to the previous 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. Support for the registration process and submission questions is available through the HHS Help Desk at 512-438-4720 or toll-free at 855-435-7181, available Monday through Friday from 7:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. Central Time. All bidders are directed to review the complete solicitation package and contact the identified Point of Contact with any questions regarding solicitation requirements.

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.

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.

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.
