This procurement seeks qualified vendors to supply specified Epson printer and scanner models required for cashier operations, with the solicitation limiting competition exclusively to Epson brand products to ensure system compatibility with existing DAR infrastructure. The RFB identifies specific technical specifications and quantities for the equipment needed, along with delivery requirements that bidders must address in their proposals. Interested vendors must submit detailed cost proposals covering equipment pricing and associated delivery or installation services. Evaluation criteria include pricing competitiveness, product availability, and vendor qualifications. The solicitation was posted on May 5, 2026, with a response deadline of May 25, 2026. The state anticipates awarding the contract for an initial term with potential renewal options exercisable at the state's discretion to support ongoing cashier and financial processing operations.
