Datalogic mobile computer scanners

The State of Idaho, specifically Ada County, is conducting a procurement for Datalogic mobile computer scanners through an Invitation to Bid (ITB). The solicitation seeks to acquire 170 Datalogic Memor K mobile computer scanners and 70 single slot docks primarily for use by the Idaho State Liquor Division across its 68 retail liquor stores and over 100 contract stores. Bidders must be authorized Datalogic distributors and provide a fully burdened total cost on the provided bid schedule, with no product substitutions allowed without prior written approval. The bid is due on June 12, 2024, with an anticipated delivery timeline of 180 days from the award date or as mutually agreed upon. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on total cost, with the contractor required to designate a contract manager to oversee service performance. Evaluation will focus on meeting the minimum specifications for the mobile computers, which will be used for scanning freight, performing cycle counts, and verifying bar orders by district managers and select personnel.

There are no specific set-aside designations mentioned in the solicitation documents. The procurement appears to be open to all authorized Datalogic distributors without restrictions for disadvantaged or small businesses. The contract includes standard State of Idaho terms, including a 1.25% administrative fee that must be remitted quarterly and provisions for potential one-year renewals. Vendors must comply with comprehensive insurance requirements, including maintaining commercial general liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation insurance with specified minimum coverage amounts. The State of Idaho will require the successful vendor to list the State, contracting agency, and their divisions, officers, and employees as additional insured parties. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the procurement suggests a significant investment in mobile computing technology for inventory and operational management across the state's liquor distribution network.
