DVR Coin/Bill sorter

The Colorado Department of Human Services, Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) issued a Documented Quote (DQ) solicitation on behalf of Denver County and Denver City seeking quotes for coin counting and sorting equipment to support clients with disabilities in achieving successful employment outcomes. The procurement involves four specific items: a Talking Currency Scanner, a Coin Sorter, a Bagging Pedestal, and a Tubing Kit—all assistive technology devices designed to enable individuals with vision impairments to independently operate vending machine businesses. All equipment and parts must be new and include manufacturer warranties, with vendors required to specify warranty periods and any minimums, special charges, restrictions, or conditions applicable to their quotes. Pricing must be submitted on an FOB Destination basis with firm pricing for the entire award term through September 30, 2016, and payment terms must provide a minimum of 45 calendar days. The submission deadline is Friday, October 30, 2015, at 10:00 AM MST, with quotes accepted via email to vera.kennedy@state.co.us, by fax to 303-866-5808, or by mail to the Department of Human Services North/Central Procurement office in Denver. The State intends to issue a single vendor award based on the quote most beneficial to the State, with price as the primary evaluation factor, though administrative costs, delivery conditions, experience, and warranties will also be considered.

Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) incorporated or organized in Colorado and officially registered with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs may receive a 5% price preference, provided they submit appropriate certification documentation with their response. All vendors must be registered with Colorado's Vendor Self Service (VSS) System prior to the October 30, 2015, solicitation deadline to be considered for award. The solicitation does not identify any incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure requiring integration. No specific budget range or award value is listed in the solicitation materials, as pricing will be determined based on vendor quotes submitted in response to the documented quote request. The award term is fixed through September 30, 2016, with no renewal options available.
