About this opportunity
The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for paper towels and toilet paper for Region 2 facilities, targeting a total procurement of 6,743 cases of various paper products. The specific items include 2,868 cases of economy singlefold towels, 50 cases of economy multifold towels, 2,000 cases of 1-ply toilet paper, and 1,825 cases of 2-ply toilet paper. This solicitation is scheduled for delivery during the first quarter of 2026, with specific delivery locations including Mule Creek State Prison, Sierra Conservation Center, San Quentin Rehabilitation Center, Salinas Valley State Prison, and Valley State Prison. The RFQ was released on September 26, 2025, with questions due by October 7, 2025, and bid submissions required by October 9, 2025. The procurement will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder using an "all or none" method, with the state reserving the right to adjust order quantities by up to 30% at the awarded price for 90 days.
The solicitation is exclusively open to California-certified Small Businesses (SB) under the SB/DVBE Option procurement method, creating a restricted competitive environment. Bidders must submit electronic proposals accompanied by several mandatory documents, including a Bidder Declaration, Darfur Contracting Act Certification, and a Postconsumer Recycled-Content Certification. Delivery terms are F.O.B. Destination with freight prepaid by the contractor, and shipping costs must be incorporated into the overall product pricing. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the comprehensive nature of the procurement suggests a significant volume procurement across multiple correctional facilities. The state's procurement approach emphasizes not only competitive pricing but also social responsibility through small business participation and environmental considerations, as evidenced by the recycled content certification requirement.
