Lenovo ThinkPad

The State of Nevada is seeking bids for the procurement of Lenovo ThinkPad laptops through a statewide contract. The contract will be managed by the Nevada Department of Administration Purchasing Division and is open to all state and local government agencies within Nevada, such as Elko County. The required equipment includes new Lenovo ThinkPad laptops meeting specific product specifications. Key objectives include providing standardized computing devices across state and local jurisdictions. The procurement process involves a competitive solicitation with a May 24, 2018 due date for responses. Evaluation criteria include conformance to the Standard Terms and Conditions for Commodities established by the State of Nevada.

The contract opportunity has no set-aside designations, and is open to all qualified vendors. However, the Standard Terms and Conditions outline preferences for Nevada-based businesses and businesses owned by disabled veterans. There is no incumbent vendor listed, and the contract value is not specified, though it will be based on the proposed pricing and quantities ordered by participating state and local agencies over the potential two-year contract term with annual extensions.
