N95 Masks for Milwaukee County Dept. of Health and Human Services - BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES

Milwaukee County Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the Behavioral Health Services division, is seeking to procure N95 masks through a competitive Request for Quotation (RFQ) process. The procurement involves acquiring three different sizes of N95 masks: 14 boxes of small masks, 70 boxes of medium masks, and 14 boxes of large masks, with each box containing 100 masks. Vendors must provide pricing for all mask sizes and be licensed/authorized to sell and distribute the products with manufacturer warranty support. The RFQ requires new, in-box N95 masks with delivery mandated within 14 calendar days after order release. Evaluation criteria will focus on Total Cost of Ownership and financial benefit, with Milwaukee County reserving the right to award contracts for individual items, groups of items, or all items based on what best serves the county's interests. The solicitation was posted on September 19, 2025, with bid responses due by September 26, 2025. Acceptable contract pricing options include GSA, University of Wisconsin, VendorNet, MMCAP, NPP, and SourceWell.

The procurement opportunity appears to have no specific set-aside designations, but vendors must comply with Milwaukee County's Code of Ethics and submit a non-collusion statement. Bidders are required to adhere to federal, state, and local regulations and maintain commercial general liability insurance with $1,000,000 per occurrence coverage. The county is tax-exempt and maintains strict communication protocols, requiring all bid-related questions to be submitted through a designated Q&A forum. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, historical bid tabulations from similar PPE procurements indicate potential contract values ranging from several thousand to over $100,000 depending on final pricing. Vendors must also demonstrate the ability to potentially extend pricing to other local government entities in southeastern Wisconsin and offer payment terms, with many previous submissions including net 30-day options and cash discounts for early payment.
