IFB 23-3079 - Archive Box Pickup and Delivery Service

The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) has issued Invitation for Bid (IFB) 23-3079 for an Archive Box Pickup and Delivery Service contract. The contract requires providing all necessary labor, materials, and equipment to perform archive box pickup and delivery services from CDSS's Disability Determination Service Division (DDSD) branches statewide to the Department of General Services (DGS) State Records Center. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder(s) and will cover the jurisdictions of Sacramento County and Sacramento City. The anticipated contract term is May 1, 2024 or date of CDSS approval, whichever is later, through April 30, 2026, with an option to extend for up to 12 additional months. Bidders must have at least 5 years of continuous experience providing these services to a California state agency or public agency, a valid California business license, good standing with the California Secretary of State, and a principal place of business in California.

The IFB waives the Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) program requirement but includes the DVBE incentive. CDSS does not guarantee the amount of services that may be requested, but the estimated frequency is 0-6 times per year, per location, with an estimated volume of 0-500 boxes (0-12,500 pounds) per pickup, per location. While the IFB does not provide details on pricing, set-asides, incumbents, or funding sources, it does indicate that the award will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder(s).
