This document is a Pre-Proposal Conference Information for the Texas Lottery Commission's Request for Proposals (RFP) for Lottery Products Testing Services, RFP No. 362-2024-0002. The Texas Lottery Commission is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to perform testing and evaluation of lottery products, including Scratch Ticket games, Draw Game Paper Stock, and other lottery products, to ensure their security, integrity, and "playability". The Pre-Proposal Conference will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams on February 21, 2024, at 1:30 p.m. Central Time. Vendors will be required to sign in and provide their name, company name, and phone number. The RFP states that the Texas Lottery anticipates an average of 85 to 95 standard Scratch Ticket games produced annually during the contract term, but does not warrant that all Scratch Ticket games will be submitted for testing. Proposals are due on March 25, 2024, at 4:00 p.m. Central Time.

The RFP indicates that the Successful Proposer shall be required to test all Texas Lottery products at the agency's request, although the primary focus will be testing Scratch Ticket games. The Successful Proposer shall test lottery products until a conclusive result is reached, and any additional tests, including re-tests, due to inconclusive results will be performed at no additional cost to the Texas Lottery. The Successful Proposer may also be required to test other lottery products or conduct miscellaneous testing services for new and emerging products, as requested by the Texas Lottery or its Scratch Ticket manufacturers with the agency's prior approval.
