Medication Packaging System

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) is seeking competitive bids for a Medication Packaging Automation System through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for Marion County. The procurement seeks a new automated medication packaging system with specific technical requirements, including the capacity to process 200 or more cards per hour, pack 30 and 60 count cards, automatically seal blister cards, and enable quick medication changes. Bidders must provide comprehensive pricing for the system, including the base equipment, warranty, and service agreement. The bid submission deadline is October 17, 2023, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The system must be deliverable within a 4-month timeframe and meet all technical specifications outlined in the ITB document. Evaluation will primarily focus on meeting the technical requirements and overall bid pricing.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were identified in the procurement documents. The ITB does not mention incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure that would require integration with the new system. While a precise budget range was not explicitly stated, the procurement appears to be a direct equipment purchase for a medication packaging automation solution. The contract appears to be a one-time equipment acquisition, with the focus on obtaining a high-performance medication packaging system for the Department of Corrections. Potential bidders should carefully review the technical specifications and pricing requirements to ensure full compliance with the ITB's detailed instructions and performance expectations.
