NOTICE OF INTENT AWARD RFX 3160007170.pdf

This document is a Notice of Intent to Award from the Mississippi Department of Health (MSDH) for RFx 3160007170, a formal procurement for the Modified Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR): Analysis and Reporting of Drinking Water Sample Results for Previously Unmonitored Systems. The solicitation, which opened for bid responses on 01/30/2025 at 8:00 am, received submissions from three vendors: Pace Analytical Services LLC, Eurofins Eaton Analytical LLC, and Battelle. After evaluation according to the solicitation criteria, MSDH has announced its intent to award the contract to Pace Analytical Services LLC, pending approval from the Public Procurement Review Board.

The successful vendor is instructed not to commence work, purchase materials, or enter into subcontracts until the contract is fully executed. The procurement is specifically for analyzing and reporting drinking water sample results, likely involving comprehensive testing of water samples from small groundwater systems. The contract appears to be time-limited, with a clear protocol for vendor selection based on predefined evaluation criteria. The notice emphasizes that while Pace Analytical Services LLC has been selected, final contract implementation is contingent upon formal approval, and the vendor must await official execution before initiating any project-related activities.
