About this file

This file is an exhibit detailing the HHS Online Bid Room submission procedures for the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) solicitation HHS0017651 regarding Check Processing Hardware and Software. The document provides instructions for bidders to submit responses electronically through the HHS Online Bid Room or through alternative submission methods identified in the solicitation package. Bidders must follow the specified form and manner of submission outlined in the solicitation package and meet the response due date and time; failure to adhere to these requirements may result in disqualification. The HHS Online Bid Room access is optional, and its use is subject to all terms, conditions, and requirements of the solicitation.

Access to the HHS Online Bid Room requires completion of a multi-step registration process. Users must follow a provided link to the IAMOnline sign-in page, request a new account as a non-HHS employee or register their organization, and await Agency Sponsor approval before receiving a registration email to activate their account. The activation link is valid for seven days only. Users with previous Enterprise Portal or IAMOnline access must complete a new registration using a different email address, as the system does not permit duplicate email addresses across accounts. The registration process may require several days to complete, and applicants are advised to allow sufficient time for approval prior to the response due date, as late submissions are not accepted. Technical difficulties with the optional HHS Online Bid Room do not provide grounds for contract award protests. Additional assistance is available through the 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.

Access to the HHS Online Bid Room is a multi-step process.

All Online Bid Room Users:

· 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.
