ADOC Unimac Laundry Sales and Service, North Territory

The Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC) is soliciting an annual agreement for Unimac laundry sales and service in the North Territory, with responses due September 24, 2026.

The scope covers provision, maintenance, and support of Unimac laundry equipment across designated ADOC facilities within the North Territory. The vendor must demonstrate experience with commercial laundry operations in correctional or institutional settings and capacity to service multiple locations simultaneously. Performance requirements include equipment installation, preventive maintenance, emergency repairs, parts replacement, technical support, specified response times for service calls, equipment uptime guarantees, and documented maintenance and repair records.

The contract term runs October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027, with firm pricing required for the entire 12-month period and no escalation clauses permitted. The total contract cost may not exceed $25,000, including the original agreement and any subsequent renewals combined, or a total time period of five years from the effective date, whichever is reached first. The contract may be renewed annually by written agreement of both parties. Price escalation requests during contract performance may be considered if material or labor costs increase significantly through no fault of the supplier, provided increases do not exceed industry-specific price index changes or the Consumer Price Index and do not surpass 5 percent of annual contract cost.

Suppliers must be registered in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically through that platform. Vendors must comply with Alabama state law and federal requirements, including E-Verify enrollment if employing workers in Alabama, sales tax certification, and debarment certifications. The State maintains sales tax exemption status and will not indemnify suppliers. Vendors must accept multiple forms of electronic payment at no additional cost to the State.
