Newborn Screening Forms (Rebid)

The Georgia Department of Public Health issued an electronic Request for Quotes (eRFQ) for Newborn Screening (NBS) Forms as a rebid solicitation pursuant to the State Purchasing Act (O.C.G.A. 50-5-50 et seq.). The primary objective is to establish a contract with one or more qualified suppliers to provide newborn screening specimen collection forms that meet stringent regulatory and quality standards. The forms must be printed by facilities that operate under Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and maintain International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001-2008 certification. Key deliverables include the printed newborn screening forms themselves, with compliance with FDA and ISO standards serving as critical evaluation criteria. The solicitation was posted on September 26, 2025, with a response deadline of November 14, 2025. This rebid was issued following the cancellation of the original solicitation (SPD-SPR014, DPH0000260) on March 5, 2026, due to the need to redevelop requirements, and all prospective suppliers are required to submit responses to new bid forms and updated requirements for consideration of award.

The solicitation documentation does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to particular types of organizations, such as disadvantaged enterprises, minority-owned businesses, or women-owned businesses. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available procurement materials, nor are there references to existing infrastructure or technology requiring integration with selected suppliers. The notice indicates that all materials submitted in response to the original cancelled solicitation remain closed pending the outcome of the rebid process, and procurement records will be made available following issuance of a Notice of Intent to Award in accordance with Georgia Procurement Manual provisions. The specific award value or budget range for this contract opportunity is not disclosed in the available documentation and should be clarified through direct contact with the issuing officer, Arnaz Fanning, or through the official solicitation documents.
