Child Contact Sheets

The State of Maine is conducting a procurement for Child Contact Sheets across three counties: Androscoggin, Penobscot, and Piscataquis. The contract opportunity, posted on August 9, 2007, with a response deadline of August 13, 2007, appears to involve creating contact documentation for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program locations. While specific details about the exact deliverables are limited, the procurement requires electronic bid submission through the Division of Purchases, with awards being made to the lowest responsible bidder providing the best value to the state. Bidders must use prescribed forms and follow specific submission guidelines, with the state reserving the right to adjust contract quantities by up to 10%. The evaluation criteria will prioritize responsible bidders who can effectively meet the state's needs for comprehensive contact documentation across the specified counties.

The procurement does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or specific restrictions on responding organizations. The contract allows for a maximum 3% cost overrun and provides the State Purchasing Director flexibility to extend the contract period up to three years with contractor consent. No incumbent vendors are directly mentioned in the available documentation. The state maintains standard provisions that include tax exemptions, potential liability for excess costs in case of contractor default, and the possibility of removal from the bidder registry for non-responsiveness. While no specific budget range is provided, the contract appears focused on creating administrative documentation for WIC program client contact information. Potential contractors should be prepared to demonstrate capability in producing accurate, comprehensive contact sheets for multiple county-level human services locations.
