About this opportunity

The New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS), Commission for the Blind, is soliciting bid proposals for automatic vending machine service at two New York State Department of Transportation (NYS DOT) rest areas along Interstate 88. The specific locations are the "Unadilla" rest area on the eastbound side between Exits 10 and 11 in the Town of Sidney, Delaware County, and the "East Worcester" rest area on the westbound side between Exits 20 and 19 in the Town of Worcester, Otsego County. The procurement is designed to provide income, benefits, and services to legally blind New York State residents through the Federal Randolph Sheppard Act of 1974. Bidders must submit a monthly fee proposal for the five-year contract term, with no price cap restrictions, and will be responsible for setting their own product prices. The bid requires contractors to provide a letter of credit or cash payment equivalent to three months of the contract fee to guarantee discharge of all obligations. The invitation for bids (IFB) #1006 was posted on February 13, 2019, with a bid due date of March 8, 2019, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time, and the anticipated contract term is from May 1, 2019, to April 30, 2024.

The procurement includes specific set-aside and participation goals, with a 30% Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) participation requirement and a 6% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business contracting goal. While this is not a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned set-aside procurement, these participation goals are mandatory. The current contract, held under contract XDS1211, had a total contract value of $22,080 for a two-year term, with total gross sales of $20,035.70 reported for the 2018 calendar year. The awarded contract ultimately went to Pepsi Beverages Company with a bid rate of $516.67 per month, resulting in a total five-year award of $31,000, despite another bidder, Prestige Vending NY, Inc., submitting a lower monthly bid of $500.00. Bidders are required to complete various certification forms, including a Non-Collusive Bidding Certification, MacBride Fair Employment Principles Certification, and a Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire, to demonstrate their eligibility and compliance with state procurement regulations.
