All amendments will be posted on the Electronic State Business Daily, and bidders are responsible for monitoring this platform for updates and modifications to the original solicitation terms prior to the April 27, 2026 deadline. The TDCJ assumes no responsibility for bidders who fail to receive amendments due to lack of registered contact information, making early communication with the agency critical for bid preparation and submission.

The ESBD certification serves as a prerequisite for bid submission and confirms that the applicant meets Texas procurement requirements for designated set-aside opportunities. No incumbent vendor information, specific budget allocation, or award value range is provided in the available solicitation documents. Bidders are strongly encouraged to contact TDCJ prior to the closing date to confirm receipt of all amendments and to verify their eligibility status.
