HVAC Filters

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is seeking competitive bids to establish a one-year contract, with an optional one-year extension, for the supply of various sizes of MERV 5 pleated HVAC filters for the San Angelo State Supported Living Center in Carlsbad, Texas. The contract will cover quarterly deliveries of the filters, which are required across multiple buildings and facilities on the campus. The IFB provides detailed specifications for the filters, including dimensions, quantities, and packaging requirements. Pricing is a key evaluation criterion, along with the bidder's ability to meet the performance and delivery terms. Responses are due by July 15, 2024, and the anticipated contract start date is September 1, 2024.

The procurement involves the HHSC and the Department of State Health Services (DSHS), and the jurisdictions include Tom Green County and the City of San Marcos. The IFB notes that HHSC is not obligated to select the lowest priced response, but rather the one that provides the best value. The contract opportunity has a historical spend of $36,000 over a 12-month period. The IFB includes Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting plan requirements, and the contract must comply with various state laws and regulations, including restrictions on dealings with public servants, financial participation, and human trafficking. No other set-asides or incumbent information is provided in the documentation.
