About this opportunity
The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is requesting bids on DNA extraction reagents for newborn screening under IFB HHS0017640, with bids due July 15, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. Central Time. Questions are due July 6, 2026, with responses posted by July 9.
The scope comprises two specific QuantaBio reagent products: Extracta DBS (Part #95171-500, 500 mL units, estimated annual quantity 450 units or 208 liters) and PerfeCTa qPCR ToughMix UNG Low ROX (Part #95140-05K, 50 mL units, estimated annual quantity 136 units or 6.8 liters). These reagents support automated DNA extraction and real-time quantitative PCR testing for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disorder (SCID) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) screening using dried blood spot samples. Substitutions are prohibited without prior written HHSC approval.
Reagents must maintain minimum two-year shelf lives from receipt, with master mix stored at –20°C and extraction buffer at +4°C. Packaging must withstand shipment. Deliveries must occur between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on specified dates, excluding 11:00 a.m. to noon. The contract requires a single annual purchase of each reagent as a single manufacturing lot. The vendor bears all delivery, special handling, storage, and re-delivery costs.
The initial contract term runs September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027, with four optional one-year renewal periods extending through August 31, 2031, plus an additional one-year extension at HHSC's sole discretion. Historical spend for comparable goods was $2.5 million for the period September 1, 2025 through November 3, 2025. Price adjustments during renewal periods may be permitted based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index, though adjustments are not automatic and remain at HHSC's sole discretion.
Pricing must be submitted as firm, fixed unit prices on Exhibit C with F.O.B. Destination Freight Prepaid and Included or exact separate delivery costs specified. HHSC reserves the right to reject all responses, make single or multiple awards, and is not obligated to select the lowest price but rather the response offering best value based on specifications compliance, delivery capability, and price. Delivery is to DSHS Laboratory Building L-114, 1100 W 49th Street, Austin, Texas 78756.
