About this file

This is Addendum #1 to IFB ST249022 issued by the California Department of Developmental Services (DDS) for CV STAR Pharmacy Services, dated December 5, 2024. The addendum completely replaces Exhibit B - Budget Detail and Payment Provisions of the original IFB, which outlines the payment terms and budget requirements for pharmacy services at DDS Central Valley facilities.

The revised payment provisions specify that contractors will be paid monthly in arrears upon DDS approval of progress reports and invoices, with payments made according to the California Prompt Payment Act. The contractor must submit a Wholesale Worksheet (Exhibit B - Attachment 2) with pricing structures for house stock/supply, brand medications, generic medications, and over-the-counter medications, all calculated as wholesale cost plus markup. Budget modifications exceeding 10% or $10,000 require formal contract amendments. The addendum includes contingency clauses regarding state budget appropriations and establishes accounting and invoicing procedures, with invoices to be sent electronically to HQTrustOffice@dds.ca.gov.
