Vendors must submit their pricing, including delivery costs to a warehouse in Des Plaines, IL, by July 17, 2020. The lowest total bid that meets the specifications and is made from a verifiable antimicrobial material will be awarded the contract. Pricing must be valid for 90 days, and no price increases will be accepted. DHS reserves the right to reject all offers, award by item or group, and waive minor defects. Vendors may be required to submit evidence of their qualifications, and bids from non-responsible vendors will be rejected. All equipment provided must be new and the latest model in current production.

The RFQ does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The current incumbent or contractor is not provided. The RFQ also does not include any information on the possible award values or budget ranges.
