About this opportunity

The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) is seeking to procure three autoclaves and associated services through a Request for Qualifications and Quotes (RFQQ No. K5904) located in Thurston County. The procurement requires the purchase of autoclaves equivalent to or better than the Steris model 20 Inch Lab 250(LS) Electric Sterilizer, with comprehensive service requirements including warranty, 24-hour guaranteed service, regular maintenance, accreditations, deinstallation of existing units, and installation of new equipment. The project involves complex technical specifications, requiring three separate accreditation processes: Installation Qualification (IQ), Operational Qualification (OQ), and Performance Qualification (PQ) to meet FDA and USDA funding standards. Key procurement dates include a mandatory bidders' site walkthrough on February 7, 2025, at the Linderson Lab in Tumwater, WA, with questions due February 7, 2025, and responses due February 14, 2025. The evaluation process will assess responses based on performance requirements/experience/qualifications (400 points), cost factors (100 points), with additional preference points for specific business classifications.

The procurement includes specific set-aside and preference points for Washington Small Businesses (50 points) and Certified Veteran-Owned Businesses (50 points), with additional consideration for compliance with Executive Order 18-03 regarding mandatory individual arbitration (25 points). Bidders must demonstrate comprehensive qualifications, including detailed warranty coverage, service response capabilities, and maintenance plans, with particular emphasis on remedies if service standards are not met. The contract term is scheduled from February 19, 2025, through June 30, 2028, with an estimated total contract value of $400,000. Businesses must provide proof of Washington state registration, maintain appropriate insurance, and submit detailed documentation including a Bidder's Certification and Bidder's Profile. Potential vendors must also meet specific small business classification thresholds: Microbusiness (less than $1 million), Minibusiness ($1-3 million), and Small Business (less than $7 million for three consecutive years).
