Chemical Products- QVL- MVE

The State of Missouri has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Chemical Products through a Qualified Vendor List (QVL) and Missouri Vocational Enterprises (MVE) program. The solicitation seeks vendors to provide chemical products for the Eastern Reception & Diagnostic Correctional Center Chemical Factory located in Bonne Terre, Missouri. The contract period runs from March 10, 2022, through March 9, 2024, with responses due by February 7, 2022, at 2:00 PM CST. Vendors are required to complete and submit Exhibit A, indicating the specific line items of chemical products they can provide, though pricing will not be submitted at this initial stage. The procurement will be conducted through the MissouriBUYS system, with vendors required to upload completed exhibits electronically. Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board (FOB) Destination, and payment terms are set at Net 45 Days. The solicitation covers the entire State of Missouri, with specific jurisdiction noted for St. Charles County.

The RFP appears to be open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The solicitation does not specify a total contract value or budget range, and there are no explicit requirements for disadvantaged enterprises or specific vendor qualifications beyond the ability to provide the listed chemical products. The procurement process will involve vendors indicating their capabilities on Exhibit A, with pricing to be processed post-contract award according to sections 2.3 and 2.4 of the RFP. The contract will likely result in a multiple-vendor award, allowing the state to engage various suppliers for the required chemical products. Potential vendors are advised to carefully review the complete solicitation document, including all exhibits and addenda, to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the requirements and to prepare a responsive proposal.
