Clear Plastic Bag Liners

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice is soliciting bids to establish a blanket purchase order for clear plastic bag liners, with proposals due September 3, 2026. The BPO term extends from the date of award through August 31, 2027, with no renewal options.

Vendors must submit specification data sheets as part of their bid response and possess both a Texas Identification Number and Federal Employer Identification Number. Respondents must certify compliance with state and federal requirements, including antitrust laws, non-debarment status, E-Verify participation, and tax exemption awareness. All goods are subject to TDCJ inspection and testing, with costs borne by the vendor if products fail to meet specifications.

Prices must be firm for 30 days from the response due date, quoted F.O.B. destination with freight prepaid and allowed. Delivery must occur during normal working hours unless prior approval is obtained. TDCJ reserves the right to make awards on the basis of low line-item response, low total of line-items, or any other combination serving the state's best interest, and may accept or reject all or any part of any response.

Late and unsigned responses will not be considered. The contract is subject to termination for non-appropriation and unavailability of funds, and TDCJ retains the right to terminate for convenience on 30 days' written notice without penalty or buyout obligations.
