MFO FY27 Sampling

The State of Alabama Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is soliciting Quick Quotes for MFO FY27 Sampling with quotes due September 14, 2026.

Suppliers must register in Alabama Buys and submit quotes electronically through the Public Solicitation site and Supplier Portal. By submitting a quote, suppliers certify they have not engaged in collusion, are not barred from contracting with the state, and affirm receipt of the solicitation and all amendments. Suppliers must enroll in E-Verify if they employ individuals in Alabama and certify compliance with Alabama sales and use tax collection and remittance requirements.

The technical scope is defined in the attached Sampling Specification Sheet, which establishes detailed sampling methodologies, measurement standards, procedures, and quality assurance measures that contractors must follow throughout performance. Bidders must incorporate the outlined protocols into their proposals.

Any resulting contract may be renewed annually by written agreement up to a total contract cost of $25,000 or a five-year period from the effective date, whichever comes first. The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analysis and may request written proof of supplier qualifications, manufacturer authorization, professional licenses, and certificates of insurance. Price escalation requests may be considered if material, labor, or other costs significantly increase, provided increases do not exceed 5 percent of annual contract cost.

The solicitation is governed by Alabama law with exclusive venue in Montgomery. Suppliers must accept multiple forms of electronic payment at no additional cost to the State. All procurement information is subject to public disclosure under Alabama law.
