About this file
This document is an exhibit providing instructions for the HHS Online Bid Room submission process for the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) solicitation HHS0016707. The file outlines the optional electronic submission method available to bidders for responding to the WIC Infant Formula Rebate solicitation. Bidders must follow a multi-step access process that begins with registering through the IAMOnline portal using an email address as their external user ID. The registration process requires submission of an account request, approval from an Agency Sponsor, and activation of the account within seven days of receiving the IAMOnline registration email. Applicants with existing access to the previous Enterprise Portal or IAMOnline systems must complete a new registration using a different email address, as the system does not permit duplicate email addresses across accounts. Importantly, the document emphasizes that the registration process may require several days to complete, and bidders are advised to allow sufficient time before the response due date to ensure timely submission.
The document specifies that use of the HHS Online Bid Room is optional and subject to all terms and conditions outlined in the main solicitation package. Submissions must be made in the form and manner described in the solicitation package by the specified response due date and time. The document clarifies that failure to adhere to the submission requirements may result in disqualification and that technical difficulties encountered during optional electronic submission are not valid grounds for protesting a contract award. Additional support is available through the HHS Help Desk at 512-438-4720 or 855-435-7181 (toll-free), operating Monday through Friday from 7:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. Central Time. Bidders are directed to consult the complete solicitation package and contact the designated Point of Contact with any questions regarding the solicitation requirements.

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.
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 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.
